Total Health Institute was born out of the journey of self-healing that came when conventional medicine failed to have answers for a potential life threatening disease that afflicted co-founder Laurie Nemec. As Dr. Keith Nemec, a chiropractic physician, and his wife Laurie Nemec researched the best alternative health treatments across the world they traveled across the country to the top alternative health clinics in the United States, and met with top alternative healing practitioner in Europe. Dr. Keith & Laurie Nemec have researched and continue to research with the top healing minds in the world where they have brought these life transforming principles back to the heart of the U.S. in Chicago.

The belief of Dr. Keith & Laurie Nemec is that God created mankind to live life to the full, which we call total health of body, mind and spirit or to be whole. This can be achieved if one gets back to the 7 Basic Steps to Total Health™." /> Dr. Keith Nemec CAM, Chiropractor, Active Health Library, and Doctor
