Meet Dr. Aristotle Economou

Paralyzed in 2006. Wheelchair to Walking. 
Dr. Aristotle's Personal Healing Journey.

BEFORE In 2006, an Autoimmune challenge paralyzed & confined Dr. Aristotle to a wheelchair. Unable to support his head, an extension support was added to prevent his head from falling back. Two springs with brackets were used to support his arms.

AFTER Following his miraculous recovery, Dr. Aristotle continues to currently see patients.

How Dr. Aristotle Overcame Paralysis in 2006

Nothing takes the place of personal experience. This is why Dr. Aristotle understands the difficulties his patients face when dealing with a personal health challenge.

In 2006, an event occurred that turned his life upside down and put his years of clinical expertise in healthcare to the ultimate test.

Over a few short months, an autoimmune disorder began to eat away the muscles throughout Aristotle’s body. He became paralyzed with only the ability to slightly move his hands at the wrists and blink his eyes.

Aristotle ended up in an intensive care unit (ICU), followed by a 72-day stay in a hospital. He was told he may never walk again. Throughout the year, his healing journey continued while confined to an electric wheelchair and requiring 24/7 around-the-clock care.

With help and determination, Aristotle combined modalities from Functional Medicine, Eastern Medicine and unique techniques in Chiropractic, Laser Acupuncture and Tui Na. This resulted in the ability to rebuild his body, mind and spirit, which was the foundation to his miraculous recovery and ability to walk again.

Aristotle then wrote the book, Change the Way You Heal: 7 Steps To Highly Effective Healing. No matter how big or small your health problem, this inspirational book shows you how to maximize your healing abilities and resources using the same methods he implemented in his own recovery.

Dr Aristotle voted as one of Los Angeles Magazine's Best Chiropractors 2018.
