Happy New Year

It's that time of year when we look at the past 364 days and then try to plan the next 365 days. It's time when we all make the resolution to improve ourselves in someway, sometimes putting a lot of additional stress on us.

This year my resolution is to have more balance in my life. I urge my friends, my staff, my patients to have balance. Find time for yourself, treat yourself to something weekly, even if it's your favorite coffee, tea, CD, 30 minutes in a quiet room, but plan it.

Stress is a major factor in muscle pain, so let's try to find something that allows us to be more balanced and therefore more healthier.

Happy New year, may 2011 bring you health and happiness.

If you are thinking about getting rid of those unwanted pounds, come to our next Ideal Protein workshop!! Find out how you can be successful and most of all, LEARN HOW TO KEEP IT OFF!!!!!!

But most importantly, think of us when you injure yourself, pull something, or are just sick of tired of being sick and tired!! We can help, and if we can't we will tell you we can't!!

I wish you all the best in the New Year!

Tis the Season

It is that time of year when I put things in perspective and give thanks. This year I am thankful to have a new office! Some would say that is a little conceited in nature, but this is the reason behind it. With the space we have in our office now, I have helped more people than I could have in the past. Explanation needed........so here it is.

BStrong4Life is so advanced in the health benefits it offers. There is nothing else on the market that can REVERSE, yes REVERSE osteoporosis. This thing is amazing and everybody, no matter their physical condition, age, bone condition, would benefit and should be on this system. Because I believe in it sooo much, the first 50 people to respond to this blog by calling the office will recive a free month of the system...................That is my gift to you!!!

Happy Holidays!!!!

Change of seasons

As the daylight hours are fewer and fewer and as the colors change, there are many changes occuring at intun ChiroCare as well. You will see new faces and more activity.

Change is positive. Sometimes we resist change because it is difficult, but in the end without change growth does not occur. We are growing here at intun ChiroCare. However, our number one goal is still customer service, and I promise you individual attention. Our relationship is critical in the process of healing, losing weight, or becoming stronger.

I also promise to continue to provide state-of-the-art care and keep up to date with the current technology at intun ChiroCare.

Stop in and take a look at our new products,services, and meet our new team members.

The weight on your childs back

As the school year approaches I think of all the books I used to carry on my one shoulder. I was way too cool to ever use both straps on my backpack. If I only knew then what I know now.

Junior High students are in a crucial growing period. There are things that they do everyday that can cause abnormal posture and become a learned position. Which down the road can lead to early degeneration and of course pain. Crazy huh!?!?!

An average 11 year old weighs anywhere from 70-80 pounds. You should have approximately 10% of your body weight in a backpack. I actually weighed a patent's backpack last spring, it weighed 28 pounds. Fortunately for her, she is a chiropractic patient and I am educating her how to handle her books. She was constantly wearing her backpack on one shoulder until we took xrays and saw what it was doing to her spine.

If you have any junior high or high school children that are carrying a lot of weight around daily, please bring them in to get checked.

Until next time..................

Looking ahead

If you could look ahead to the future, would you want to see what would happen? In terms of health, I would like to know what could possibly happen. Especially with familial history of heart disease, cancer, and osteoporosis, it would be of great interest to learn how my life would be......... Since, there has been no reported successful time travel, I guess my health is in my hands.

Exercise and diet can prevent a lot of the things I am predispositioned for. So, I can take control of my future. With the increase of prescription medications and increase of bone loss (coincidence I do believe) we can actually determine our own bone health as well .. SAY IT ISN'T SO!!!

BStrong4Life can REVERSE, yes I said it, REVERSE bone loss. Not only reverse bone loss, but make you stronger. We are seeing results that are truly amazing. Senior Citizens that have been asked to not come back to local facilities are getting great results here. Personalized training!!! It's a no brainer to me!!!

If you know of anyone that could benefit from this program, please send them our way. Check out the website www.BStrong4Life.com

Insurance companies........the new doctors?

Are you letting your insurance company dictate your health care? Are they becoming the new doctors, if they determine your care, then yes. How qualified are they?

They ARE NOT qualified, so why do you let them determine your care? As many of you know, structural rehabilitation is a process. It requires an investment in time and money, but the end results have proven it's success. I know times are tough, but when you allow your visit limit determine what kind of care you choose, you are doing yourself a grave inservice.

If you are working with someone like myself that is more concerned about your care than the bottom line, they will work something out. Many people are opting to stay under care after insurance is finished paying because they see the benefit. I hope you will to.

Different kind of chiro............

I know I know, you've heard it before, "I'm a different kind of chiropractor". But honestly, I am.

Today, I had the privledge of discussing a patients x-rays with her. Before I start, here's a little history of this patient. Since 19 years old she has been to 10 different chiropractors for the same symptom, Neck Pain (which for those of you that don't know this, I love difficult neck cases). After only getting temporarily relief, she gave up on my profession until she heard that I was a "differnt kind of chiro"

Today, a very discouraged women now has faith that I can help her with her symptoms. I saw her face light up and she thanked me. At the end of our visit, she stated, "I have never had such and in depth report, thank you, you are truley different."

DIFFERENT ROCKS!!!! I will take it.

Til next time.

Pain pain go away.........

Isn't it funny how we ignore our bodies every single day, or we pop pills to make it through the day. Pain is your body's way of telling you something is wrong.

I had a patient come in the other day as said, "Doc, I feel great, but I have this pretty bad pain in my elbow." I chuckled and said, how are you great if you have significant pain? Something to ponder, right.....

After examining it and learning more about the pain, I found that a fall on an outstretched hand was the culprit. A quick adjustment to the elbow and then he was actually great.

Moral of the story, we think pain is the normal when it is not.............Whether it's your elbow, your neck, your back, or your knee, get it checked out.

Reversal of osteoporosis, is it so?

As a female I worry about my bone health quite a bit, especially with a family history of osteoporosis. Always seeking an alternative means other than prescription medications that I don't feel are worth the risks and side effects, I was amazed when I was introduced to the B Strong 4 Life program.

This program, done once a week, can actually REVERSE osteoporosis, that's right, REVERSE it.

Dr. Camissa, the co-founder of B Strong 4 Life has a patient whose diagnose was reversed after 23 weeks of the B strong 4 life Program. Her MD was so impressed he is sending people to Dr. Camissa's office so they too can reap the benefits.

Once a week is all it takes.

If you know of any that suffers from osteoporosis, please have them give me a call.

Til next time..........

What price would you pay?

I have a question for every single person out there? What price would you pay for a service, a product, or advice that would allow you to live a stronger, healthier life? A life that would allow you to be independent longer?? Could you put a price on such a thing?

I am so please to announce that intun ChiroCare is becoming a B-Strong-4-Life Center. We are adding some amazing new technology that allows me to help so many more people. What is a B-Strong-4-Life center. It is a new concept in strength training and bone remodeling (or actually allowing your bone density to become richer). It allows even the most de-conditioned person to become strong enough to no longer need help getting off of the commode. This is no joke, check out Ruth's testimonial at www.bstrong4life.com.

I am incorporating chiropractic, vibration training, and bio density equipment to allow people to become stronger, straighter, faster, and healthier. Call for more information!!!! This is amazing and everyone should be a part of this.

Be Strong and stay tuned............................

People watching

I find myself people watching more and more. I am not looking at their shoes, their handbags, their clothing, but at their posture. I remember in a first trimester class during Chiropractic school, a professor said that my life would forever be changed, that you would no longer look at people the same way, and wow, he was spot on.

Posture is the window to your spine, I say this repeatedly. Abnormal posture exudes extra stress and strain on not only your spine, but the surrounding tissues. So what can we do about it? We can do many things. First, start with getting a unique blueprint of your spine done. How? At intun ChiroCare, we have technology that accesses your posture and when coupled with x-rays, we see the distinctive postural deficits that may be causing you problems you were unaware of.

What could be some of these problems: fatigue, pain, weakness, early degenerative changes in your spine, just to name a few.

I beg of you to stop and take a look at your loved ones to see how their posture is. If you see something that stands out, more than likely there is a problem. Have them call for their individual blue print of their spine.

BLESSINGS

As I sit in my new office and look out the window at the Riverfront, I am overcome with emotion. I am so blessed to have this space, but more blessed that I am able to help people overcome their health concerns.

I want to thank everyone that was part of my dream, opening my own office. I would name each person individually, but honestly, this goes back many many years.

I ran my first business at the age of 24 and knew that one day I would be my own boss again, but never thought that I would have the ability to change people's lives as well. My "big idea" is to help people live a better life. Whether that requires getting them out of pain, or rebuilding their spine, or helping them condition themselves, or even coaching them through a weight loss battle, I will be there to help. With our new home, I will be providing many more service so I can reach out to more people.

While this has been an exciting 3 months, I want to apologize to those who may have felt that I put this project ahead of their care. Just know that my patients and clients are always my first priority, which is why I was so focused on moving to a new location. I was not able to provide the type of services that I insist of providing at my past location.

Again, thank you to everyone the helped, gave words of encouragement, listened to the complaints, adjusted my spine, kept my spirits up, brought me coffee, etc................You all have a very special place in my heart.

WELCOME TO OUR NEW HOME.............641 RIVERFRONT DR SUITE A, SHEBOYGAN WI

WE ARE MOVING

Exciting times are in store for Intun ChiroCare. Due to our continued growth, we are moving into a new location. Construction is underway at our new office which is located on the Historic Sheboygan Riverfront, we will be located at 641 Riverfront Drive Suite A. Most of you know that address as where the Dory was.

As of today, we are planning to move at the end of February and will begin to see patients at our new location on Tuesday March 2. With a new location, we will be better able to serve you. I will be offering weight loss programs, nutritional counseling, and more spinal rebuilding options. Look for updates as the progress continues.

Thank you for the continued support.

Stay tuned.................
