No Time to Eat a Healthy Meal or Snack?

No Time to Eat a Healthy Meal or Snack?

It amazes me that we are all so busy this day and age.  It seems like not so long ago we had weekly family dinners that consisted of hearty and mostly healthy home cooked meals.  But not, with the kids and grand kids being involved in so many different sports and after school activities and both spouses working at least one job, volunteering, mentoring, etc, etc, etc.  We are just too busy and the fast food industry has taken note of that fact, too.  Is it any wonder that even the smallest of towns have at least one fast food chain restaurant now?  I recently drove thru a mid Michigan community that is of medium population that had two McDonalds on the same side of the street about a half-mile apart.   ...Read More

Chiropractic Helps with Ear Infections

A chiropractic adjustment releases the pressure on the tubes allowing normal drainage to occur.

Chiropractic Helps with Ear Infections

When the spine is misaligned it affects the normal draining of the Eustachian tubes. Stagnate water left in the ears provides a breeding ground for bacterial growth. A chiropractic adjustment releases the pressure on the tubes allowing normal drainage to occur and reduces the incidence of ear infections. 45 children with ear infections were treated with chiropractic care. 93% of the cases resolved under care. 75% within 10 days or less. J Manipulative Physiol Ther. 1996 Mar-Apr;19(3):169-77.

Everyday Activities Can Cause Subluxations

Regular chiropractic care prevents everyday activities from wearing you out. When was your last adjustment?

Everyday Activities Can Cause Subluxations

Sitting at your computer, carrying children, poor sleeping positions or talking on the phone are activities we perform daily. These activities may seem harmless but overtime they can cause wear and tear on our spine. A spine that is subluxated or misaligned degenerates faster than one that is in alignment. Regular chiropractic care prevents everyday activities from wearing you out. When was your last adjustment?

A Simple Spinal Checkup

Ear infections, constipation, and asthma are common sicknesses seen in children today. Perhaps they don't have to be. A spinal checkup up BEFORE SYMPTOMS OCCUR can prevent spinal subluxations that affect our nervous system.

10 Reasons You Should See A Chiropractor

1. It is a non-invasive health science mand art that cares for patients without the use of surgery or drugs. This is important all of the time but even more pronounced in pregnancy and for children when medicine is not always the best option.
2. Noticeable results, including the elimination of pain, increased flexibility, muscle relaxation and more are often experienced quickly and sometimes after only a single adjustment.
3. It has proven incredibly useful in rehabilitative care, such as recovery from surgery or serious injury or illness as it is also proven incredibly useful in those who choose  not to elect surgery or medicines even after other physical therapy has been unsuccessful.
4. It is effective not only in acute care from accidents, injury, disease, and other chronic complaints, but in preventative care and wellness care as well. If the top athletic performers credit their continued abilities to remaining healthy through Chiropractic care, wouldn't it benefit everyone?
5. It can be highly beneficial in dealing with addictions, compulsions, obsessive behaviors, and many psychological and emotional concerns like stress, anxiety, and depression.
6. It can improve stamina, endurance, and overall performance in all of life’s activities.
7. It can increase mental clarity and acuity.
8. It boosts immune function by as much as 400%.
9. It turns on your innate intelligence and allows for up to100% of nerve flow to reach your body
10.  It excites and relaxes your nervous system and allows for the perfect amount of excitability and relaxation!
