5 Reasons to NOT Have a Spinal Dentist on Your Family’s Healthcare Team

5. The 1500 times my children have fallen just learning how to walk by the age of 2 are really no big deal…even though I would be miserable if I fell 1500 times within a 2 year time frame in my 40′s.

4. I like my head sitting on my shoulders or protruding from my chest instead of sitting directly on top of my neck.

3. Why correct my son’s/daughter’s forward head posture? It just makes it easier for them to see the phone to text their friends!

2. Why would I want my family thinking better with a clearly functioning nerve system? I prefer the temper tantrums, disagreements, and difficulties with focus and concentration.

1. I played soccer, gymnastics, and football as a kid and I’m fine. I just throw my back out 4 times a year, and my neck always hurts, and I’m always getting sick with everything my kids bring home.

Roasted Beets and Sauteed Beet Greens Recipe

Ok, you can wipe the weirded out look off of your face. Beets are a SUPERFOOD–extremely full of fiber, phosphorus, sodium, magnesium, calcium, iron, potassium, vitamins A and C, niacin, biotin, and folic acid. That’s a pretty big list, huh? They also help cleanse and support the blood and liver. The liver’s responsible for cleaning out all toxins that the body encounters, anything from pesticides to alcohol to medications, etc. It takes a beating and it needs support at times.

___________________

Ingredients

• 1 bunch beets with greens (see above for all the good stuff found in beets!)
• 1/4 cup olive oil, divided (should be in pretty much anything you cook; the darker the better; this monounsaturated fat type is heart-disease fighting and bad cholesterol fighting)
• 2 cloves garlic, minced (one of the world’s greatest antioxidants; cook  with it as much as possible!)
• 2 tablespoons chopped onion (optional)
• salt and pepper to taste
• 1 tablespoon red wine vinegar (optional)

Directions

1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees (175 degrees C). Wash the beets thoroughly, leaving the skins on, and remove the greens. Rinse greens, removing any large stems, and set aside. Place the beets in a small baking dish or roasting pan, and toss with 2 tablespoons of olive oil. If you wish to peel the beets, it is easier to do so once they have been roasted.
2. Cover, and bake for 45 to 60 minutes, or until a knife can slide easily through the largest beet.
3. When the roasted beets are almost done, heat the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil in a skillet over medium-low heat. Add the garlic and onion, and cook for a minute. Tear the beet greens into 2 to 3 inch pieces, and add them to the skillet. Cook and stir until greens are wilted and tender. Season with salt and pepper. Serve the greens as is, and the roasted beets sliced with either red-wine vinegar, or butter and salt and pepper.

 

Yours in the Best Health,

What to Expect From Chiropractic Care

Laying the foundation

Chiropractic care is like building a house – certain things have to happen in a particular order in order for everything to stand strong and work correctly. When building a house, if you tried to put up your walls before you had a solid foundation, your walls would be weak and eventually collapse. If you tried to put on your roof before the walls were ready, you would run into the same problem. The same is true for your body. Your body has to go through a particular plan of care in order to repair itself correctly and fully. There are three general phases of chiropractic care . . .

Phase 1: Intensive Care

If you are in pain when you come into our office, the first objective is to help you feel better. Depending on the severity of your problem, it is typical to need care 2-3 times per week for 4-12 weeks.

Phase 2: Corrective/RehabilitativeCare

During the corrective care phase, muscles and other tissues are allowed to heal more completely, thereby helping prevent injury. It is typical to need care 4-8 times per month for 6-24 months, depending on your overall health and the severity of your problem.

Phase 3: Wellness Care

Once your body has fully healed, it is important to come in for periodic adjustments to avoid problems in the future. Usually, this only requires a quick visit to the chiropractor 1-4 times per month, based on your lifestyle and goals.
