I had the pleasure of sitting down with a business mentor yesterday on ways to help market our practice and improve how we communicate our message. He is considered a "senior citizen" in the worlds eye but he was spot on with what's going on today. My father is the same way.
As we were talking about improving our message he mentioned a cartoon caption that he read over the weekend that stated. "Perfect health is the slowest possible rate at which you can die". When you let that sink in it's a very profound statement. I responded with the statement that "some have a better quality of life than others while going through the process".
In the end we are all going to move on to a better place, but most of our senior citizens who still have decades to live have a poor quality of life. They are suffering from many nagging problems, illnesses and consume multiple medications just to help maintain "life".
I recall one patient I took care of years ago that took 20 plus prescription medications every single day and my one question to her was "if you're taking this many medications shouldn't your quality of life be better and not worse?" she didn't respond in fact she was a patient who came a couple of times but quit because she didn't receive her miracle after the 3rd visit. I tried to tell her it always happens on the 4th visit. Just kidding kind of. Sometimes it does but in all reality healing is a process that takes time.
My goal as a chiropractor is to help senior citizens understand that their nervous system controls every function in their body and that more life flowing through their nervous system is better than less life flowing through it. We also help them understand that the longer you maintain life flowing to the maximum it will in turn help them have a better "quality of life"...hopefully with less medication.
Also, your never old to go to a chiropractor, my grandfather started at the age of 84 and went until he passed at the age of 94. His quality of life improved dramatically I just wish he started sooner.
So please remember that "Perfect Health" is the slowest possible rate that you can die while maintaining the highest quality of life. Go see your chiropractor regularly.
Have a great day!

Greek Yogurt and Chiropractic
I read an article this morning on how sales of Greek Yogurt has exploded and that food companies in their quest to increase their profits have decided to jump on the band wagon and produce their own "Greek Yogurt" like product. The secret to the success of real Greek Yogurt is in its simplicity. They make it the way it was meant to be; by hand exactly as mother made it.
The food companies have decided to do it in a way that has the traditional makers of Greek Yogurt alarmed. High tech procedures are now being used to produce this product by taking regular yogurt and adding ingredients such as starch from corn or tapioca to produce the same consistency and taste. They have tweaked the quality and quantity to come close. The only problem is that it may look the same and possibly taste the same but it is not the same.
And that brings me to chiropractic. When chiropractic began in 1895 it started out with one deaf man receiving an adjustment to his spine and having his hearing restored. It was a simple process done by hand with life changing results. The secret to the success of chiropractic helping sick people get well and helping families live healthier medication free lives is its simplicity. When it is done by hand and applied in a way that removes interference to the communication system of the body, miracles happen. Many of these miracle patients wanted to help others as they had been helped and a chiropractic school was created.
As the profession and the school flourished it started to attract other health practitioners who wanted to practice chiropractic. They were readily accepted into chiropractic school in the hopes that they would give up their old procedures and only practice chiropractic. Upon graduation many of these health practitioners wanted to provide "more" for their patients began to integrate chiropractic with their old procedures. It was less effective and the results were not the same.
To this day the success of chiropractic has always been in its simplicity. So remember its not the label on the outside of the package/building that will determine the taste/results its the ingredients/procedures on the inside that will.
In our office we choose to keep it simple and it has been well worth seeing the lives change!
The choice is yours!
Have a great day!

Cost of Waiting
I have been speaking lately to a financial adviser on plans for the future. He cares about what he is doing for his clients and it shows. He is out there everyday promoting his business and I admire him for how he is going about it. He goes door to door to help create awareness on the benefits of financial planning. I am sure he has had a few doors slammed in his face, people ignoring his knock at the door, and has probably seen the lights go out mysteriously as soon as he shows up for his appointment.
The reason I bring this up is he recently dropped off a flyer to our office where the headline said "Cost of Waiting". I am sure he was subliminally telling me to stop procrastinating on getting started with him. The flyer had charts and graphs, ages and earnings and it showed how the older you are before you start investing how much money you have lost because of your procrastination. It was quite eye opening as it made me realize that I am in it for the long haul!
This flyer also got me thinking about the people who are not proactively under chiropractic care and how they are going to need to start investing in their financial future. You see they are most likely going to need money to fund all the treatments for the illnesses that they are going to experience as they get older. I don't wish that upon them but that is the truth of the matter.
Our nation is stressed out, sick and dying and yet we spend more money on health care and consume more medications than any other nation in the world. Our system has failed and yet people are still afraid to do something different. Many people are dying from the treatments and not the disease they were diagnosed with.
Why not start investing in your families health today by having regular chiropractic checkups? Paula and I have raised a family of 7 to be healthy and medication free for over 24 years. We have done this by making sure that the communication system of the body is working to its fullest ability. Our office has been helping families live healthier medication free lives for 17 years.
There used to be this saying "you can pay me know or you'll pay me later" The choice is yours, one is more costly?
Go ahead and start investing in your family's future today by giving us a call at 770-362-6430. You'll be glad you did!

If only my parents knew that there were natural
options for children suffering with asthma and allergies. Perhaps my
brother’s childhood would have been different?
|
What a sad life to live to never be able to smell fresh air,
flowers, baby's hair, perfume/cologne or a warm ocean breeze. As a sibling of
someone who suffered from severe allergies and asthma I saw the physical,
emotional and financial toll it took upon my brother and my parents. There was
a certain point where my brother had to live in a hospital out of state so he
could learn to cope with his challenges, administer his own adrenaline shots
and live a more vibrant life. This was not fun for any of us.
As he grew older he was able to do more things and has
participated in sports such as Rugby and he even has run the New York and
Boston Marathons. We are all proud of his accomplishments however he is still
challenged with asthma and allergies and keeps an inhaler close by just in
case.
The problem was that my parents didn't know of any other
options. They followed the medical model and to some limited extent he was
helped. Unfortunately there are too many other people out there who don’t know
of any other options who are living in their own plastic bubbles because they
are afraid to experience life because they have allergies and asthma. There is
another option...
Did you know that your body is designed to adapt to its
environment as long as there is no interference? Did you know that people with
asthma and allergies have responded well to chiropractic care? Did you know
that families under chiropractic care have stronger immune systems, take less
medications and are healthier than families who are not under care?
Please get a chiropractic checkup and make sure there is no
interference and help someone Live Better...Live Longer!

The Man in the White Coat
I spend my day living my life with my husband sharing our passion for health. We wake up every morning and thank God for a bright day that is ahead of us. Why can't that be the norm for all. Instead, I go to the store and see men, women, and families in line waiting to get the latest and greatest drug for the most common illness, or better yet, I hear stories of how individuals are tired of being sick all the time.
Health comes from within. Our bodies are the most intelligent system out there but we continue to close our eyes to this when we are in dis-ease. We do not have think to blink, breathe, move our extremities, or the like - it just happens. Why can't we just believe our bodies can do amazing things like heal. To this day, it surprises me to think that individuals will understand all of this as we are sharing our passion of health with them, but as soon as a little sniffle comes, they run to the "man in the white coat" and believe everything he says - even if it is not his specialty. I sometimes believe that if they were told to jump off a building because it was the latest cure, they would.
The body is one entity. Everything works as one - that is the nervous system. The first part of our being to be developed is the brain and the nervous system. This nervous system is so important that it is protected by bone (the spine). This spine develops with bends to give it buoyancy to adapted to our everyday living. There are millions of nerves that run through the spine that effect every part of our body (cells, organs, muscle - everything). When we feel dis-ease, normally there is some type of interference or pinch. The only, and I stress, ONLY doctor that can correct this is a chiropractor - not a message therapist, not a general practitioner, and not a orthopedist.
If you twist a garden hose while the water is on, it will either slow to a trickle or stop completely. What do you think your nerves do when you pinch them. Pinched nerves show up as asthma, headaches, ear infections, numbness, gallbladder issues, ulcers, constipation. A specific bone or two has to be properly adjusted to take the pressure off of the nerve and have that nerve flow working or moving at full speed. Taking drugs, injecting our bodies, or permanently fusing bones together will not work. You hear constantly that duplication is powerful. Well, folks, it is. If your body is producing healthy cells your body will duplicate healthy cells. On the same idea, if your body is producing unhealthy or bad cells, what do you think it is going to duplicate? Unhealthy or bad cells equal disease.
Patient: "Doctor, I have chronic headaches. What can I do to get rid of them permanently?"
Doctor: "Mrs. Bubble, I have the latest scientific cure for you. Go to the roof of this building, walk to the edge, and then jump off. When you land, for a small instance you may experience a small side effect,but your headaches will be permanently gone."

Cleaning House
Just think about what happens when you decide to clean house at home? You throw out unwanted items/magazines, you dust areas, you replace dirty filters and you repair damaged items. You do this so that your house looks wonderful and keeps it value.
The same can be said for your body and what happens to it over time when too much stress and poor choices accumulate? Chiropractors recognize that by keeping your nervous system clear of vertebral subluxations it allows the innate intelligence inside your body to "clean house". The innate intelligence within your body throws out unhealthy cells, repairs damaged tissue and works to grow healthy cells so that you can be the best you possible.
So please remember that it took time for your house/body to get dirty and it will also take time for your house/body to be clean.
Regular chiropractic checkups are a valuable long term investment for you and your family.

Kids vs. Teachers, Is There Really A Difference?
School is almost over and we should be thinking of vacations and enjoying the summer; however, that truly is not the case. Our students are nervous and stressed about the CRCT testing and our teachers are far ahead of them in that area.
As of Day 1 in school, CRCT testing is discussed and our work is cut out for us to prepare our children not only for the normal everyday curriculum but to prepare our children for this mandatory testing. As a mom, I begin to see the changes in my children as the year goes on. CRCT testing is beginning to be mentioned more frequently and I see the attitude of the children towards school change if they see their grades drop or are not quite sure if they understand this or that. What if they do not remember it when it comes to April? What if they didn't understand it and didn't ask for help? Finally, April is here, and tummies begin to churn from nervousness. We, as moms, are changing their normal habits without realizing it. We are getting them in bed a little earlier, getting them up earlier, eating different foods perhaps and at different times just to give them the edge on being prepared.
Now, the shoe is on the other foot - think of it from a teacher's standpoint. They, as well, are preparing from Day 1. What they teach our children goes hand and hand with the testing. They prepare our children all year. They do not just sit at the head of the class and hand out the test and give instructions. No, they are replaying in their mind, did I teach them everything I needed to? Did I prepare the kids enough? Perhaps I should have.... Think about it, the weight of the world is on their shoulders right now. If their class does not do well, does that mean they failed to teach something, did they not teach it right or not enough. We as parents, as well as the school board, then begin to judge that teacher. What went wrong? Throughout the whole year, in our eyes, he or she is the best teacher; however, one test score can change our minds in a heartbeat, and is that fair? No.
STRESS is serious whether you are a child or an adult. Why not step back for a few minutes before, during, and after the testing and just go about our normal routine and continue to work with both our students and teachers to make it through this trying time. Getting overworked will not change things. CRCT testing comes every year whether we are prepared or not. Make sure you are not depriving your body of the necessary energy to get through these trying times. Make sure that your Nervous System is working at 100% to handle this time of the year.
