"The doctor of the future will give no medicine, but will interest his patients in the care of the human frame, in diet, and in the cause and prevention of disease." --- Thomas Edison


Happy Mother's Month!!! HAPPY MOTHER'S MONTH!

Take a couple minutes to view this short video describing how subluxations are detected and gently adjusted in my office using Activator Methods methodology:

CURRENT EVENTS

  • CA Chiropractic Association included on their website some very interesting testimonial videos. They are from Dr Terry Schroeder with the US Men's Olympic Team, goalie Merrill Moses for the US Men's Olympic Water Polo Team, and high school french teacher Karen Ransom's patient story. CCA continually updates the site to provide useful and valuable chiropractic information, answer questions, subscribe to a eNewsletter, and a search for a doctor with high ethics using your zip code. Suggest just looking at it. It will be for your own benefit.
  • Monsanto's Roundup product again and again makes the news (for all news, see the updated Winter '09 Newsletter) regarding this broad-spectrum herbicide. This time it relates to birth defects being linked and reported on the website, EarthOpenSource.org. The culprate is the active ingredient chemical, glyphosate, which causes birth defects (even linked to infertility) in laboratory animals (and most likely in humans). Mercola.com points out that malformations primary affected are the skull, face, midline and developing brain, and spinal cord. Other independent scientific research has also found this chemical causes Cancer, Develpmental toxicity, DNA damage, Endocrine disruption, Neurotoxicity, and Reproductive toxicity. There are reports that high rates of birth defects in areas of Argentina, growing genetically modified (GM) soy using Roundup. In United States over 90% of all canola, 90% of US soybeans, and 70% of corn and cotton crops are genetically modified. WOW!

    Suggest staying away from non-organic foods containing canola oil, corn (including high fructose corn syrup), cottonseed (used in vegetable cooking oils), crookneck squash, Hawaiian papaya, soy (and soy lecithin), sugar (from sugar beets), and zucchini (some varieties - check the label). Also other ingredients that are GM include milk containing rbGH, Rennet (containing GM enzymes and used to make hard cheeses), and Aspartame (NutraSweet).

    Again I ask eveyone to sign this Organic Consumers petition asking Home Depot to dump RoundUp from its inventory. Looks like we need to avoid processed foods which contain GM ingredients unless it is USDA Certified 100% Organic.
  • For chiropractic doctors, Orange County Chiropractic District (OCCD) offers Continuing Education meetings where members attend FREE and non-members pay a small fee to cover expenses. Go to the OCCD website for details.
  • The CA Legislature continues to present bills that affect chiropractic doctors or patients. Suggest reviewing periodically what is happening in government by the going to CCA's doctor website for the latest news.
  • Everyone, please continue to write to your congressperson regarding the benefits of chiropractic for recovering from work/personal injuries and regaining/maintaining better health. With the escalating cost of sickness care, real people sharing their stories can help change our sick world to a healthier and less expensive one!

ANATOMY OF PAIN

The dictionary defines pain: "a sensation of hurting … in some part of the body, caused by an injury, disease or functional disorder, and transmitted through the nervous system." When we ignore dysfunction, pain, and/or discomfort — whatever the source — it interferes with our life. Unfortunately when it happens the degeneration has started which causes the aging process to speed up before our time.

FUNCTION vs. FEELING GOOD

Feeling good is important, right? But functioning properly is even more important because this is needed to have good health for years to come. Starting later rather than now only leads to waking up with a disease that could have been prevented by making sure body function was proper all those on/off years. This level of health can be obtained/maintained through a series of joint re-alignment training treatments which correct structural abnormalities and remove nerve interferences (subluxations). Prevention should be the goal is to help the body maintain its proper alignment and balance.

Having a chiropractic examination determines if and how we can help you. If your case is accepted, a plan of chiropractic adjustments, exercises and nutritional changes aimed to help your body relieve the discomfort and regain optimum health would be reviewed with you. If your condition can not be helped, you would be referred to another specialist where more drastic measures need to be taken.

What importance you give your own and family's health is up to you! We are here to help you resolve sport/work/auto injuries causing acute pain and/or dysfunction, or obtain and sustain wellness. We take pride in helping you and families be healthier and happier.

We invite you to discuss with us your particular condition. YES, CALL NOW!
