15 Minutes a Day

What can you do in 15 minutes that could impact your life on a daily basis?

Walk a mile

Visit your chiropractor

Fix a salad for lunch

Do your towel roll exercises

Meditate

Sit down with your family and learn about each others day

Stretch

Plan out tomorrows schedule

All of the above have a place in a healthy lifestyle, but in the American “go! go! go! culture”, we rarely sit and smell the roses.

As a chiropractor, I see the bombardment of advertisements that have permeated our culture. These products are used to overcome aches, pains, and feelings that would be alleviated by simply taking care of ourselves, slowing down, and de-stressing

The Chiropractic Adjustment doesn’t cure a single thing, but simply removes pressure on the nervous system that causes dysfunction in the communication pathways, then the body starts to react as it should and begins to adapt to its environment. As an example – take your cell phone dip it in water and see how the communication pathways in its circuit boards are interfered with… That is what you’re doing to your spine…. Now you can put your cell phone in rice and it may work again but it will never be the same, some of the function will be lost… each time it gets wet it will get worse until you have to replace it…. FYI your spine can’t be replaced!

In the end, the Go Go Go Culture takes better care of their cellphones than they do their spines.

Crutched – the Antibiotic and You

If society as we know it were to end tomorrow and the pharmacies no longer had any drugs for the diagnosis doctors were able to find, would your family know how to survive?

? How many of your family members depend on antibiotics to support their immune system?

? Did you know that taking 2-5 antibiotics in a two year period can increase your chances of cancer in the following 6 years?

? Are you aware that there are approximately 2 pounds of good bacteria that inhabit your body that help with digestion, bone density, and overall function? Does the antibiotic know which are good bacteria and bad bacteria?

Chiropracticly speaking, the body is a self healing organism that needs the proper nutrition, sleep, exercise, and lack of interference to function at 100 percent of its innate (genetic) potential.

Only in the last 100 years of 3000-7000 years of recorded history on health have our scientists said “WE ARE SMARTER THAN INNATE“, by overriding processes in the body that have served mankind successfully for thousands of years. As a believer in God, a higher intelligence that organized the universe, I have a hard time when we do something to cause interference in the natural organization. Example – you’re taking a statin drug for high cholesterol. When you stop taking it, does the lab test for cholesterol register at normal or does it go back to the elevated level? If it goes back to being elevated, what healing actually took place while you were on the medication? Why didn’t you just change the diet and lifestyle that got you to the high cholesterol in the first place?

?Did you know that there are studies that show people who take statin drugs may be as susceptible to death as the person with the same lab values that elects not to take the statin drugs? Did you know that statin drugs can cause organ failure which may lead to a premature death?

Listen to Dr. Dean Sottile and how chiropractic removes interference without compromising the natural function of the body.

Athletes, Sports, and Chiropractic

Recently we were at Armstrong University for a high school band competition. Each high school performed its pieces with distinctive differences. Ether it was a horn out of tune or a drum out of sync, the cacophony of sounds drowned out the wonderful musicians. But the bands with the least malfunctions were able to perform a symphony of sound that were almost magical. This is also how we view an athletes performance.

Runners use their unconscious brains to perform a symphony of motion that utilizes over 400 of the 642 skeletal muscles in the body to achieve a magical performances. Lets take you from your big toe to you shoulder – your big toe to the foot, to the ankle, to the leg, to the knee, to the hip, to the sacrum, up the spine, to the first rib, to the sternum, and to the shoulder . How many joints did we cross? How many muscles moved those joints? And how many nerves controlled the function? In a rough guess I counted 47 and that just joints…. If just one of joints isn’t performing correctly, the body will make a compensation to try to override the lack of function. Lack of function robs you of the ability to decrease times, finish races, and reach goals. Sports Chiropractors look at the body as a whole and do assessments looking for areas of weakness. Most nervous system and joint malfunctions are the main culprits of muscle weakness and compensation.

Like fine-tuning a race car, a pre-competition chiropractic check and adjustment of the mis-aligned vertebra can give an athlete a peak performance advantage. Notable athletes like Evander Holyfield, Brian Johnson, Jerry Rice, Michael Jordan, Tiger Woods, Joe Montana, Usain Bolt, Keflezighi, Marlo Runyan, Alicia Shay, and Adam & Kara Goucher have benefited from chiropractic care to achieve peak performances.
