ABOUT US
Ray Bayley, DC, DICCN
Ray Bayley is a licensed chiropractic physician, board certified in nutrition, who's approach to health and healing starts with the physician's oath of "first do no harm" and his own vow to "increase the benefit to risk and cost ratio" for his patients.
Ray's health and healing methods reflect his extensive education and commitment to teaching. His background includes an intensive science-oriented education from the National University of Health Sciences, and degrees in biology, chemistry, and psychology. A life-long learner, Ray devotes an average of fifteen hours a week to increasing his knowledge of nutrition and associated topics, since the research literature in this field doubles about every three years. Since getting his Doctorate in Chiropractic in 1982, Bayley has taken board-certifying and other certifying sequences in nutrition/nutraceuticals and homeopathics.
Ray is guided by the original meaning of "doctor", namely "teacher". Since 1988, Ray has been teaching post-doctorate level biochemistry, lab diagnosis, and nutrition/nutraceuticals to physicians all over the US through participating colleges and universities, in certifying and board-certifying sequences in nutrition, neurology, and physiological therapeutics.
All of this is a logical continuation of Bayley's five pre-DC years doing research and clinical work in metabolic chemistry at medical schools/hospitals and eleven years of teaching biochemistry, clinical chemistry and nutrition at the DC doctorate level.
Ray loves teaching lay classes and particularly values the opportunity to teach his patients ways to improve their lives and functioning.
Dr. Bayley, DC, like any physician, takes medical histories and does examinations. Specific questionnaires might be used. He might order lab tests making the metabolic work he does with you more objectively accurate and creating common ground to converse with any of your other chosen physicians.
Ray has had great success using nutrient supportive therapies as well as with gentle musculoskeletal bodywork that concentrates on underlying causes of distress. Ray will teach you exercises and body awareness to improve your joint, muscle and general physical health. He can also customize diets and nutraceuticals (supplements) to improve your chemical/metabolic health. You might use his expertise to make yourself more comfortable, to improve your functioning, decrease your need for more invasive therapies (e.g. drugs and surgery), find your susceptibilities and triggers, and/or even to move towards your radiant health.
