Dr. Skocik is always excited to adopt new technologies that help him to bring his complete wellness care philosophy to more people. With more and more people using Facebook and Twitter to build health-minded communities and to ask their friends about health issues, our Harrisburg chiropractor decided to jump into the social media world to provide a trusted, engaging source of information for those who want to know more about chiropractic care and holistic health issues.

While the statistics on how people use health information they get online vary, the overriding truth is that people are increasingly using social media as a venue for discussing health issues. We believe this is actually a good thing. The more people are involved with and talking about important health issues, the more awareness there can be about wellness care solutions that can make more people healthier. The challenge, as our chiropractor sees it, is helping people get good, solid, trusted information, rather than simply hearsay or “sponsored” messages from companies with products to sell.
