How well do you sleep?

2011-06-23T09:29:00.002-05:00

Many times when I meet with new patients I ask about sleep patterns and am amazed at how many people do not get enough sleep, or good quality sleep. Without a great night's of rest, people's health is comprimised.

Sleep medications cause side effects that interfere with your daily activities so I am putting together a newsletter devoted to help you get a better night's sleep.

Look for our newsletter next week, or go to our website and sign up for it, so it comes to your inbox biweekly.

Until next time.........try to get some sleep ;)

It's in the produce!!!

Antioxidants for a Youthful Appearance

Those who continue to look young in their 50s, 60s, 70s , and beyond usually have learned many secrets and strategies for keeping themselves healthy and well. For the most part, those secrets are not found in the bottles, tubes, and jars whose sales account for many billions of dollars each year.

One key secret is eating plenty of fresh fruits and vegetables. No one needed to be reminded of this 75 years ago. In those days produce was an essential dietary component. And for the most part the produce people age was grown locally. Today we have so many choices, not all of them healthful, and we need to be sure to eat produce that is fresh rather than packaged in cans.

Colorful fresh produce contains high levels of antioxidants, those small biochemicals that pack a big punch. Antioxidants neutralize free radicals, naturally occurring end-products of metabolism that destroy cells and may even cause cancer if they're not removed promptly.

In short, antioxidants provided by fresh produce have all kinds of life-extending benefits!

For more information, look for our upcoming newsletter! Til next time.

Neck Pain?

2011-05-23T11:53:00.002-05:00

Many of us suffer from neck pain from time to time. We often chalk it up to "I must have slept wrong."

Neck pain can stem from many different situations; weakened muscles of the head and neck, a spinal misalignment, a combination of both, or other scenerios.

In order to find the cause of the problem, and examination and x-rays are needed. Then an individual treatment plan can be advised.

If you or a loved one suffers from neck pain, don't hesitate, call today to schedule an appointment.

Check your inbox next week for our upcoming Newsletter that discusses Neck Pain in greater detail!!

Are chiropractors real doctors??

2011-05-10T14:59:00.004-05:00

You would be shocked at how many times I get asked this question? My initial gut reaction is something like this, "REALLY???" but then my Doctor inside of me realizes that most people don't know what it takes to become a doctor of chiropractic.

We, as in chiropractors, graduate from a four year school, and then go to another 4 year Chiropractic school. On top of that 8 year stretch, we do a minimun of 900 clinic hours to master being a Doctor.

What can we possibley study for 4 years just to learn to crack a back? We study, anatomy, embryology, microbiology, diagnosis, neurology, orthopedics, nutrition, radiography (studying and taking x-rays) and much much more. Chiropractic school is a total of 4485 classroom hours where as M.D.'s are in the classroom for 4248 hours.

So, now i propose the question to you...........are chiropractors real doctors???

It's never too late.......

2011-05-06T08:58:00.000-05:00

It’s never too late to start walking.

No matter your age or physical condition there are many health benefits associated with walking a small amount of time daily, or even every other day. Such benefits include increased cardiovascular endurance, improved muscle tone, decrease risk in heart disease, and you burn calories.

If you haven’t exercised previously, start with simply walking around the block, then after a week, walk around the block twice, and then just keep adding distance. Eventually you can add small weights to increase the intensity.

If you are ready to get walking, call me and I will help you develop a plan for you. Check out our upcoming newsletter for more detailed information about walking.

Your children and fitness

2011-05-03T10:45:00.002-05:00

It's never too early to start a fitness routine for your children, a habit that will last a lifetime.

Children automatically default to watching tv, playing on the computer or playing video games without a regular excercise routine. These pastimes are great for stimulating creativity and developing hand-eye coordination, but do not contribute to a child's level of fitness.

1 out of 3 American children are overweight, obese or at risk for becoming either of the two. This information indicates a much greater risk of heart disease as the child becomes a young adult. This young generation is the first that will not outlive their parents..............

Regular excercise and good nutrition helps maintain weight and promote a healthier lifestyle.

What do the Green Bay Packers and the Steelers have in common?

2011-02-04T09:50:00.002-06:00

Irvine, CA (February 3, 2011) Both teams get into shape for the big game with Power Plate Acceleration Training. As the Green Bay Packers and the Pittsburgh Steelers get ready to hash it out, sports analysts across the country have their picks for who will take home Super Sunday glory. While each team brings its own strengths and strategies to the field, there is one common tool that they attribute, in part, to their success.
The Packers and the Steelers have incorporated Power Plate Acceleration Training into their workouts, utilizing vibration technology that stretches, strengthens and gets them in shape for the big game. Athletic coaches have enforced rigorous routines that include the Power Plate for fast, efficient workouts that pack on the muscle and increase endurance.
"If it's true that one is judged by the company they keep, we're proud of our association with some of the finest organizations in professional football," noted Mark de Gorter, President of Power Plate North America. "As the teams prepare for the traditional second season, Power Plate will be there with them, helping their athletes maintain their highly tuned competitive edge."
Power Plate® technology provides one of the most efficient and dynamic total-body workouts in less than 30 minutes utilizing scientifically-proven Advanced Vibration Technology™ that triggers involuntary muscle reactions 25-50 times per second while you exercise. The result is a high-intensity exercise that increases strength, improves muscle tone and balance. Power Plate® equipment's scientifically proven ability to reduce muscle pain and soreness and expedite the recovery of damaged muscles and tendons is integral to athletes on both sides who want to bring their best performances along with them to Sunday’s game.
About Power Plate
Used by elite athletes such as tennis greats Serena Williams and Rafael Nadal and baseball players Dustin Pedroia of the Boston Red Sox, Justin Morneau of the Minnesota Twins and Evan Longoria of the Tampa Bay Devil Rays; celebrities like Courteney Cox, Hilary Swank and Clint Eastwood and people from all walks of life, Power Plate equipment benefits include: increased fitness, strength, muscle tone, flexibility, bone density and range of motion as well as improved blood circulation and lymphatic system activation. The complete Power Plate line of fitness equipment is designed for health clubs, wellness centers, spas, hospitals, physical therapy and rehabilitation clinics, professional and collegiate athletic training facilities, private fitness trainers and home use.

I utilizie the Power Plates not only for athletes but for everyone that needs strength and balance improvement!!

Why Chiropractic?

2011-01-03T15:10:00.002-06:00

So many people have asked me over the years, why Chiropractic? My answer normally is why not, but today I will elaborate.

Chiropractic is a natural solution that allows your body to perform at the ultimate capacity. This doesn't mean it's only applicable to performers, athletes, etc; it's applicable to everyone. I first went to a chiropractor due to continued knee pain. After going to a sports medicine specialist and being told there was nothing he could do, I needed more. I wasn't an athlete, but enjoyed the outdoors, and knee pain at the age of 13 wasn't an option.

My chiropractor discovered a short leg that would put extra stress and strain on my knees, hips, low back etc. After wearing a heel lift, the pain slowly went away. How many people suffer from the little aches and pains that might be construed as normal or even as growing pains? This opened my eyes and made me look at things in a different light. After utilizing Chiropractic care, I knew I wanted to be the one person that could help so many people.

Still today I can honestly say that I have helped some that no one else could help. That is the power of Chiropractic!

Happy New Year

2010-12-31T11:44:00.003-06:00

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.

Merry Christmas

2010-12-22T11:05:00.002-06:00

Tis the Season

2010-12-07T10:54:00.002-06:00

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

2010-10-15T15:05:00.002-05:00

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

2010-08-23T14:22:00.003-05:00

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

2010-08-04T13:04:00.002-05:00

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?

2010-07-26T13:39:00.003-05:00

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............

2010-07-15T16:10:00.002-05:00

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.........

2010-07-07T15:28:00.002-05:00

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.

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

Reversal of osteoporosis, is it so?

2010-06-29T10:30:00.002-05:00

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?

2010-04-05T15:08:00.002-05:00

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

2010-03-30T10:40:00.003-05:00

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

2010-03-16T12:44:00.005-05:00

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

2010-01-25T10:04:00.003-06:00

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.................

Shovel Right

2009-12-09T09:22:00.002-06:00

We were all waiting for it come, some of us anxiously awaiting it's arrival and some of us dreading it. Either way, the snow has arrived. Today as we all have to clean up the mess it left behind, here are a few pointers to consider to help protect your back.

Average snow weighs between 5-7 ponds per shovelful. Now, after last nights snow, we are looking at 10-12 pounds. So, think about the weight that you are throwing around.

1) RIGHT SHOVEL
Choose a light weight shovel that pushes the snow so you don't have to lift as much. This allows you to avoid the lifting and twisting which is what causes most of the shoveling injuries that I see. If you are using a metal shovel, you can spray it with Teflon so the snow doesn't stick to the shovel.

2) KNEES, KNEES, KNEES
Make sure to bend your knees when you do have to lift the shovel. This will utilize your leg and arm muscles and keeps your back straighter.

3) STRETCH FIRST
Shoveling is a strenuous activity, take some time to warm up and stretch before you go outside. This will help prevent a muscle strain while shoveling.

4) TAKE A BREAK
If you get tired, stop and rest. If you are short of breath, also stop. If you start to feel any chest pain stop, if it worsens over time, call 911 immediately. If you notice a pain or sudden "pop" in your back, stop and rest. If the pain persists for more than a day, or remains significant, call the office to schedule an appointment.

I hope these few tips will eliminate shoveling mishaps this winter.

Even the Yankees know how to utilize a great thing

2009-11-04T07:15:00.002-06:00

The New York Yankees know a thing or two about winning. The team has dominated baseball generation after generation. Why do you think that is?

Could it, or would it be possible because they have utilized chiropractors since the 1920's? I would like to say YES!!!!

Dr. Painter was associate with the Yankee organization between the 1920's and 1930's. Is it a coincidence that the Yankees had their best years during that period (4 world championships)? It is said that the organization asked to keep their utilization of chiropractic as a secret. They didn't want the other teams to have the advantages that they did.

Johnny Damon believes that chiropractic has helped him as well as his team this yearand throughout his career. He has stayed off of the injured reserve list and has promoted hiring a team chiropractor for the Yankees, just like in the good ole days of Babe Ruth and Dr. Painter.

Chiropractic is great for sports injuries and wellness care. This goes to show that when the premier athletes seek care, you know that there is something to it.

Flu season is here!!!!

2009-10-14T07:25:00.001-05:00

The Flu Season is Here, Are You Ready?

Ways to naturally boost your immune system
1)Get adjusted by your Chiropractor regularly
2)Drink lots of water
3)Avoid eating very much sugar
4)Get plenty of sleep
5)Get plenty of exercise
6)Take probiotics such as Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium

Is the flu shot right for you? Can the flu shot make you get sick? Absolutely.

Anytime you put a foreign substance into your body you are disrupting the body’s natural balance. The chemicals in a shot are toxic and therefore decrease your body’s own resistance. Whether you get sick from the virus in the shot, or get sick from the viruses that are around your body at any given time, waiting for a decrease in the body’s immune response, depends on the situation. Either way your body can get sick from the flu vaccine.

Will it prevent you from getting the flu?Your guess is as good as mine. The flu shot is made by guessing the 5-6 strains of the flu virus, that will be the most common that year. The flu vaccine has made it reputation of being effective, by keeping people that would not have gotten the flu anyway, from getting the flu. So with or without the vaccine you might get the flu or you might not. Build you body up naturally and have faith that your body knows what to do.

What is in the flu shot? Sad but true. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gWfCnjnShnM

I hope this information is helpful.

Thoughts Traumas Toxins

2009-09-27T16:08:00.003-05:00

This weekend I was visiting with two colleagues of mine. During our conversation, all 3 of us had mentioned that we had headaches. Mine was related to my sinuses, my friend's was from caffeine withdrawal and her husbands was from tension. All 3 different sources, but we all had the same idea, let's adjust each other.....................................the result, we all felt better after the chiropractic adjustment.

Why do you think that is?????

IF YOUR SPINE IS OUT OF ALIGNMENT EXTRA STRESS AND STRAIN ARE PUT UPON THE SURROUNDING TISSUES CAUSING PAIN AND DISCOMFORT.

That is my chiropractic philosophy, but in a discussion with my colleagues, they challenged me, what does the position of your spine have to do with caffeine withdrawal???? I instantly said there are other reasons why your spine is can be out of alignment and they are THOUGHTS, TRAUMAS, AND TOXINS. This is the very same principle that Chiropractic was based on, and one that I don't discuss as often as I should.

THOUGHTS How can a thought cause your spine to be out of alignment?? Think of a time that you were under a great amount of stress. How did you feel? Were you tight in your shoulders, so tight in fact that you had to physically separate your shoulders from your ears??? That is muscle tension that is normally increased when we are under stress. With an increase of muscle tension, there is extra spinal stress causing misalignment's of the spine. Chiropractic adjustments coupled with exercises and therapies to address the increase tension will help with the pain and discomfort.

TRAUMAS I think of the 3 principals, this is the most self explanatory. If you have had a trauma, you should be checked to make sure your spine is properly aligned. What most people don't understand with this principle is that we incur micro-traumas every single day that causes the extra stress and strain on the spine and surrounding tissues!!! What am I talking about??? POSTURE, POSTURE, POSTURE........................need i say more?? Poor posture, which 99.9% of us are guilty of, is a micro-trauma causing injuries on a daily basis. Also, something like stubbing your toe and the jolt of your neck during it, can cause a minor injury that over time can result in poor spinal position that may lead to neck pain, headaches, etc..................

TOXINS As for toxins, toxins in your body can result in your body not functioning at 100%. Poor nutrition, dehydration, drugs, and alcohol are examples of toxins that inhibit your body from functioning at 100%, which means you are not performing at 100% no matter what way we look at it. So what can chiropractic do to help??????? A spinal adjustment will allow the nervous system to function better by realigning the spine taking pressure off of the spinal column. I know it seems like a simple answer, but it is a little complicated.

Moral of the story......... no matter what the source of your problem is, you may be helped with a chiropractic adjustment. I hope this sparks some questions for you and if you want them answered, feel free to email me. If you know of anyone that you believe could be helped with chiropractic care, call me and give me their name and number and let me reach out to them.

Signing off for now, but please sayt tun'd

In recent conversations I've been asked what patients should expect from care. I always tell my patients that each individual has different goals for care and therefore will have different results. I address what is important to the patient in determining their course of treatment. I often find that patients require rebuilding of the spine in order to achieve their individual goals.

Below is a testimonial from a patient that did structural rehab, or spinal rebuilding.

I had severe neck and back pain for years. I tried three different chiropractors only to have the same result of temporary relief and the doctors not knowing what else to do. As it turned out I had a severe reversed curve in my neck that was not responding to traditional chiropractic methods and as a result was referred to Dr Renee Stauffacher who specialized in structural rehab. After reviewing my case she came up with a plan tailored to my needs and started a 36 session series of therapies using several different devices, techniques and exercises that spanned across several weeks. After the first series I noticed a big difference in my pain level and after completing two full series not only did I feel great, but my x-rays showed the proof of change. Hard work, patience and dedication do pay off. I would recommend Dr Renee to everyone who is seeking results.

WOW!!! With everything that has changed recently I have had some stress. With additional stress comes muscle pain and tension. Of course I get adjusted regularly and work on my posture to take the extras stress off of the spine, but I needed a little bit more.

Last night, Paula of Haven Hands, worked on me and what a difference it made. She is very knowledgeable of the structure and function of the body and is an exceptional massage therapist.

I highly recommend her to anyone. She offers relaxation, therapeutic, heated stone massages as well as paraffin treatments.

Go ahead and treat yourself and give Paula a call.

Contact Eryn at 920.451.7077 for Paula's contact information.

Enjoy the sunshine and have a great weekend.

Taking the extra step

How many times have you sat and contemplated on being content or taking the extra step? Depending on your energy level, time constraints, and other factors it's easy to say that's good! Why is it that we don't always push ourselves?

I take pride in the fact that I go above and beyond in my personal and professional life. Nothing is more gratifying to me than going home and knowing I did take that extra step and someone benefited from my it. I made a promise and will share that with you now................... I pledge to give each patient exceptional care and go above and beyond every day. I will hold myself accountable, but please, keep me in check if needed, lol.

Signing off for now, but stay tunD!!!!
