Those Annoying Aches and Pains

December 4, 2018 by admin Leave a Comment

Do You Have Any Annoying “…Aches?”

Do you have any annoying “…aches?” Are they in your head, neck, back or stomach? How about your eyes, ears, nose and throat? How about your heart, bladder or bowel? Annoying “…aches” can reduce your quality of life dramatically. They can keep you from work and keep your children out of school. They can hinder your relationships and they can cause you more severe problems down the road as you age.

Too Many People Cover Up Their “…Aches.”

Too many people cover up their “…aches” with dangerous prescription and non-prescription medication hoping that one more pill will fix the underlying cause. This rarely, if ever, happens. In fact, just the opposite is often true.

For example, chronic aspirin use can lead to ulcers. Acetaminophen, the active ingredient in Tylenol, can cause liver failure, especially when mixed with alcohol. NSAIDS, like Motrin and ibuprofen, can cause your kidneys to fail. This is especially true when you consider the impact of time on the habit of masking symptoms with drugs.

You Have Other Options

Fortunately, you have other options, better options, and the answer often comes from within.
When your spine and nervous system is functioning properly, your body has the ability to heal itself from nearly every “…ache” that you might feel. Your nervous system controls and coordinates the function of every cell, tissue and organ of your body. It is your body’s natural IT, information technology, system.
When your natural IT system is functioning properly, your body gets the right messages to help you heal. The chemical balance can be normal. The adaptation responses can be appropriate. The healing response during times of injury or when there are “…aches” is right on.

You Will Be Amazed at Your Body’s Ability to Heal

You will be amazed at your body’s ability to heal from the annoying “…aches” that you experience when your IT system is balanced and aligned.

Beyond healing from injuries, aches and pains, if you keep your IT system functioning at its highest level long enough for your body to regenerate, you can expect a much higher level of health throughout your entire lifetime.

What makes this approach unique is that the goal is not to treat the symptoms by covering them up, manipulating your body chemistry or artificially altering the way you feel. By removing interference to your nervous system and balancing out your structure and spine, your body can repair itself on its own. You will be amazed at how much you have tolerated as “normal” once you see your body respond.

Removing the interference leads to spontaneous and long term healing. Before you take another drug to cover up the symptoms, research the medication on www.drugs.com. Learn as much as you can about it. Research the side effects over the long haul. The longer you take something, the more likely you are to experience the long list of side effects that you may not feel yet.

Living your ideal 100 Year Lifestyle is not about barely surviving, having to cope with suffering, or rotting away as you age. It is about living your best life every day and staying healthy throughout your lifetime. Believe in yourself and your ability to heal from those “…aches”. Believe in your ability to function. Make the commitment to your health and invest in your immediate and long term well-being with chiropractic Lifestyle Care.

I Just Woke Up With It

November 19, 2018 by admin Leave a Comment

Do you know someone that woke up with an injury or illness and attributed it to sleeping? It is not uncommon to hear people say something like, ‘I just woke up with it.’

While sleeping in awkward positions may trigger aches and pains in the morning, there are usually underlying conditions that are the cause of the problem.

Jacob Riis, esteemed reporter and colleague of Theodore Roosevelt once said, “look at a stone cutter hammering away at his rock, perhaps a hundred times without as much as a crack showing in it. Yet at the hundred-and-first blow it will split in two, and I know it was not the last blow that did it, but all that had gone before.”

The same principle holds true with your health, including the health of your spine and nerve system.

Spinal injuries known as subluxations, for example, can occur during the birth process, when a child is learning to walk, from childhood falls, toxicity and stress just to name a few. This condition can lie dormant for decades and suddenly show up one morning because the way you slept was ‘”the straw that broke the camel’s back.” And if the nerves are involved your entire body could be affected.

Your nervous system controls the function of every cell, tissue and organ in the body and adapts you to your environment. Brain function,heart rate, digestion, elimination, movement, strength, stamina, the ability to focus and adapt are just a few of the daily functions of your nervous system.

Research shows:

– 8-10 mm of pressure, the weight of a dime, can reduce spinal nerve transmission- CU

– Nerve compression can exist without pain- Spine.

– After only two weeks since an injury, the nerves begins to degenerate- T. Videman, MD

Other lifestyle habits that can affect your spine and nervous system are overeating, poor nutrition, slouching, excessive drinking, taking prescription or non-prescription drugs, or sitting too much.

Because it only takes a small amount of pressure to injure a nerve and a little bit of time for the degeneration to set in, regular chiropractic check-ups should be a priority.

Don’t wait until you ‘feel it’ because you may not have pain at first. Schedule an appointment today to begin enjoying your sleep, waking up refreshed and getting back to living your ideal 100 Year Lifestyle.
