Do You Have An Ostrich In YOUR Family?
March 4, 2010
Have you ever seen a picture of an ostrich with its head buried in the sand? This is one of the funniest scenes in nature and is a great metaphor to describe individuals who have a crisis care mentality about their health. This means that they only take care of themselves when they get sick, diagnosed with a disease or are in excruciating pain. This is not a good idea.
Is this someone you know?
If you want to live an active, healthy long life, it’s time to redefine crisis. Here are earlier signs that you or your loved ones are in crisis:
- You take over the counter drugs on a monthly basis
- You have taken prescription drugs consistently for more than three months
- You have altered your life due to a health concern
- You constantly try to pop your neck and back or are fidgety
- You cannot exercise
- You take medication to offset the side effects of other medications
- You experience irregular sleep patterns
- You are susceptible to colds and the flu
- You say things like, “I need to go to the doctor” or “I need to take a pill” often
- You have difficulty standing or sitting up straight
Many seniors and centenarians are suffering the consequences of their “if it ain’t broke don’t fix it”, ostrich-like attitudes. We’re getting the advance notice that our parents and grandparents never received.
These concepts will help you think differently about health and pull your head out of the sand:
If you have an ostrich in your family, help them by sending them this article and letting them know there is another way to view their health!

The Global Effects Of Subluxation Part 3
November 30, 2009
If you missed parts 1 and 2 read them first….
Here is the one of the biggest reasons why you and your family need to include chiropractic care as a part of your healthy, 100 year lifestyle!
5. An Early Unnecessary Demise: In 1994 Dr. Lee authored a lengthy article that postulates that the central nervous system (brain and spinal cord) is involved in all disease processes and explains that causes and cures of all diseases are mediated by our central nervous system. Everyone must be checked on a routine basis for neurological interference caused by subluxations at a lifestyle chiropractic office if they desire to stay healthy. Another study reveals that subluxations negatively effect the visceral (organ) input centers and output centers in your brain stem. This indicates that almost any subluxation at any level may result in almost any kind of health challenge. Finally, the autopsies performed by Dr. Windsor M.D. correlated that nearly 100% of diseases these animals suffered from were related to a curvature in the spine or a spinal problem that damaged the nerve that supplied that specific organ.
Is this different from what you thought chiropractic care was all about??
How can we help you achieve the life you deserve??
The Global Effects of Subluxation, Part 2
November 25, 2009
If you missed part 1- impaired immunity and decreased mental function were the first two devastating global effects of subluxation that we discussed. Incredible as those two effects are, the next three are perhaps even more significant!
3. Altered emotional stability: We usually don’t relate our emotional states to whether we need an adjustment or not, however, our emotions are intimately related to our nervous system function. Studies reveal an amazing connection between altered neurochemistry and emotional states to the subluxation. Many studies reveal that chiropractic care can offer fascinating results for practice members with ADD/ADHD, panic attacks, nightmares, anxiety attacks, irritability and general states of loss of well-being.
4. Damaged Genetic Potential: New research is now indicating that subluxations can alter the genetic expression of your genes. This has devastating consequences to your health and your future as a human being.
Stay tuned for the final global effect of subluxation….you won’t want to miss this one!
The Global Effects Of Subluxation
November 16, 2009
These control EVERYTHING inside us!
There is more to subluxations than back pain, neck pain and a pinched nerve. Some of the scariest consequences of subluxations come from the possible global effects on your body. When most patients investigate their subluxations they are often concerned about the potential health problems that may arise in the tissues that the specific nerve supplies at the level of their subluxations.
For example; if they have a T1 subluxation, the nerve at that level supplies the heart and lung tissue. Their concern, and rightly so, is will this subluxation cause heart or lung problems? The research and many case studies indicate that this is a possibility but even more importantly subluxations may cause even more serious global health problems in your body.
1. Impaired Immune Function: Arguably one of the most important keys to a long healthy life is a healthy immune system. Research now reveals that your subluxations may seriously impair the function of your immune system. Dr. Pero’s research indicates that one’s immune system and susceptibility to serious disease are negatively affected by subluxations. Another study reveals that the quantity and quality of your white blood celss are negatively affected by subluxations.
2. Decreased Mental Function: Nobody would want their mind to be clouded and not be able to process information and think clearly. A chiropractic study demonstrated that an individual’s mental efficiency may improve 1500-3000% after a chiropractic adjustment. In another study, researchers discovered that brain stem function improved following a chiropractic adjustment.
Stay tuned for the next 3 global effects coming soon!
Our Dad, Our Inspiration….
November 3, 2009
Many of you have been asking about our dad and his health. A very sincere thanks from both of us for your caring so much about our wellbeing and his.
Our dad has taken incredible care of himself throughout his lifetime. He exercises every day, he is a former marathoner and triathlete, he has been vegetarian more than 15 years, has been under chiropractic care for more than 35 years, and has a loving, healthy relationship.
Our Parents
He did, however, have some major health challenges which resulted in 8 major abdominal surgeries. This last episode of my dad going to the hospital was because his insides were not working properly and he was on death’s door. 7 weeks later and 22 lbs lighter he was finally released and is on his way to “getting back to his life” again.
This is a true testament to the healing power of the body….had he not taken such amazing care of himself throughout the years he would not be with us today. What’s around the corner for you?
He received many healing arts while he was in the hospital in addition to the emergency medical care. He received chiropractic, reflexology, acupuncture, Quantum Touch, Reiki and alot of prayer. Yes, the nurses and doctors knew about it all! They were amazingly supportive and encouraging- my dad told one of the nurses I was a chiropractor and she told me her kids and grandkids all grew up with chiropractic and that I needed to adjust my dad…now! She would “guard” the door while I adjusted him. WOW, that was incredible….
I am constantly and consistently amazed at the Innate Healing Power of the body which all of these healing modalities affect. The POWER that made the body HEALS the body….it happens no other way.
We truly thank all of you for your support, understanding and prayers for our family during this time. Your kind words have meant the world to us and to our family and we are so honored to have you all as part of our lives!
