The document provides biographical information about Dr. Riley Sowle and discusses his views on health, wellness, and empowering individuals to take responsibility for their own health. It contrasts "sick care" which is reactive and focuses on treating disease, with "health care" which takes a proactive approach to identifying and addressing the underlying causes of health issues. The document emphasizes the importance of the nervous system in maintaining coordination and homeostasis in the body, and how stress and trauma can disrupt this process, leading to incoordination and disease.
