Mark is your Super-Doc...
Mark is your Super-Doc. He’s genuinely caring, ridiculously knowledgeable, and skillfully experienced. You’ll be in excellent hands with him.

Like Marcus Welby...
I don't know about you, but my experience is that most docs don't spend much time with a person, don't get to know you and your issues very well, but are very good about sending you a bill for $300 for 15 minutes of their time. Not Dr. Force. He is much closer to Marcus Welby, except make him much younger, much more physically fit, and much more knowledgeable. Add a healthy dose of natropathy, acupuncture, kinesiology and chiropractic, along with high consciousness and a firm grasp of spiritual truth, and you have Dr. Force.

Individualized, Real Healthcare
I have been a patient of Dr. Mark Force for 15 years. While not personally being a "poster boy" of perfect health, I can say that all of my good-health habits and knowledge are the result of Dr. Force's guidance and treatment. I am also very aware of my improvement areas and how to make myself healthier as a result of his wisdom and insight. Getting to those is my personal responsibility and duty....Dr. Force has set the roadmap.
I find Dr. Force to be very unique in the medical world because he is focused on you, the patient, and takes the time to really listen and understand. With many other doctors, I've often felt a strong sense of the "medical business" prevailing over focusing on the patient as a person. Mark treats patients to fundamentally heal and not just mask or alter an ongoing ailment. His ultimate goal is not to see or treat someone every week, but to have simply four checkup visits a year. When a patient can follow that schedule, they are generally in good, balanced health overall.
The body is a system, and Dr. Force knows how to diagnose, treat and heal with much wisdom and an open mind and heart.

The Only Doc I See
I now use Dr. Force as my main physician and for ALL my health care needs. He is an amazing Homeopathic Healer, Kinisiologist, Chiropractor, and diagnostician. The entire Elements of Health team have helped me fulfill my goals of achieving good health AND maintaining it. I finally convinced my 73 yr. old mother to see him as well. She had been suffering from severe Vertigo that not even the Mayo Clinic could seem to figure out what the problem was. During her first appt., Dr. Force deduced she had a mineral deficiency and put her on supplements and she was cured in 1 week! TRUE story. You will not be disappointed!

Health Through Chiropractic And The Elements of Health
I first learned of The Elements of Health and the Choosing Health workbook about six years ago. I had consistent migraine headaches and was eager for a solution. My cousin, Dr. Ben Galyardt, was working for Dr. Force and introduced me first to spinal adjustments. Previously, I had no chiropractic care. I found out that there were a couple possible causes for my migraines, my C-1 and/or C-2 vertebrae was consistently out of alignment, which needed to be corrected. I had some basic allergy tests done, which is when I first started to understand the world of Applied Kinesiology, which is wonderful. I was allergic to wheat, at the time. I stopped eating all wheat and gluten products, focused on my posture throughout the day, and took more breaks during the day. My C-1 'held' its place for a much more normal period and my migraines were gone. Of course, I wanted to learn more since I was bordering on a size 38 jean size and not feeling the greatest. I did the Health Tests, Beet Cleanse, Foundation Diet, Blood Tests, and tons of other
little things that I found in Dr. Force's book. To make a long story short, the Choosing Health workbook is THE BEST book on complete health care, mental and physical, that I have ever come across. I buy these workbooks by the box and give them away. Dr. Force has never asked me to do this and I have never received any money or other compensation, nor do I want any, from
passing these books out. I have a book at my home, my office, and yes, the bathroom. This is the book of choice for me, whenever I have extra time to read. The Elements of Health are THE WAY to go for good health. We must change from a reactive health care system to a proactive health care system. I know The Elements of Health work because, today, I follow these principles, I have peace of mind and although I am not exactly at my ideal waist size, I am close and I have a game plan to achieve my health goals!

Dear Dr. Force and staff,
A recent change in John's job has sent us back to Leesburg, Virginia. I wanted you to know how much we appreciated the excellent care we received at Elements of Health and how sad we are to leave your practice. I feel very fortunate that I was under Dr. Force's care during my pregnancy. It will be difficult, if not impossible, to find the level of care we enjoyed with your practice here in VA. Please let me know if you know of any practitioners near us that you would recommend.
Many thanks,
Anne S.
Multiple Chronic Complaints
“Five years ago I came to you with many complaints. An easy change in diet, some supplements, some cleanses which I really needed and regular adjustments and today I am 40, feeling great, and chasing a healthy 2 1/2 year old who under your care has only had one 24-hour flu bug.
My original complaints were too numerous to name and too vague for most medical doctors. I had been over medicated as a kid and over stressed as a young adult.
Everyday I'm grateful that I had another road available to me. I wanted to thank you and encourage you to keep your vision of your patients as well and whole.
Thank you for answering my multitudes of questions, being patient and knowledgeable, but most of all thanks for taking the road less traveled and widening the path for the rest of us.”
“This past Saturday I took a 3hr nap! and upon waking stretched my arms overhead. All of a sudden, there was crackling/realignment down one side of my spine and up the other side. I then realized and have given much praise and thanks that the muscles that have been locked in my mid-thoracic area of my back are freer than they have been in almost 8 years!
For years I have been breathing shallow because upon waking I have suffered with back pain and have had sharp pain when breathing deeply. Now I am waking w/no sharp pains in my back. This is truly a blessing and I wanted you to know! I believe the cranial therapy you performed on me has helped me as well!”
Appreciation
“First, he is a gentle man. As a professional, he is very exact and thorough in all he does. He is extremely well educated, a teacher to his fellow doctors but also to his patients.
He comprehends all the complexities of the human body and he has an ability to explain it on the level of the patient. He describes a situation in a simple way so the patent knows what is happening and how it all works. Not only does he communicate effectively but also listens effectively, a rare but needed quality in a doctor.
In treatment he follows up on past information as well as asking for current input from the patient. He welcomes the involvement of the patient, which is rare in doctors. He has a marvelous sense of how the human body works and has a healthy sense of the awesomeness of the human system.
He has the ability to solve the complex cases but he also is able to sustain his interest for the more usual or common difficulties. Meaning he does "not" lose interest if the challenge is not dramatic but more a matter of proper maintenance.
He does not try to string you along, rather his objective is to get you well so that a minimum maintenance program will be established as soon as possible.
He has the ability to know and recommend some natural remedies. In my case he solved a problem and then said, "now you can do that the rest of your life and without a prescription.”
His charges for service given are very reasonable. Very much so if you consider his level of training, and the quality of care given.
