This seemingly simple little question is almost always answered wrong. Just how much should you do anything? For me, this came into sharp awareness recently while working with my sweetie Ellen while her back was seized up for a week. Essential to recovering from a seized up back is movement. Movement hurts so her natural […]
A couple of weeks ago the trade magazine Chiropractic Economics emailed me a link to a free e-book on treating arthritis. The book was 60 pages long and reviewed several approaches to dealing with arthritis. Since arthritis is certainly a common concern for many patients, I thought I would cover some of the highlights from […]
A patient called the office the other day asking if I had anything for memory. I told Sherry to say yes, but the answer to that question is like saying yes I have something to improve health. Memory support is a huge subject because so many different things affect memory. There is no magic pill […]
I read a fascinating article this morning about autonomic dysregulation as a consequence of wearing masks during this Covid 19 lockdown. What does that mean? Our autonomic nervous system controls 98% of everything that goes on in our body – just about everything except conscious movement and speech. It handles everything so we don’t have […]
Have you ever wondered just what it is I really do? Yes, I am a Doctor of Chiropractic, but that doesn’t really say anything about what I actually am doing when you come in for a visit. You know from experience that your pain decreases and your function improves, and that is really the point. […]

Now it starts to sound a little more interesting. So what are PUFA’s? This acronym stands for Poly Unsaturated Fatty Acids. For practical […]
I had two patients in a row the other day that had essentially the same question. I take this as a sign that I need to do an article on that subject. Both patients had tried to do a keto diet in the past and had gotten good results, but had been unable to keep […]
A couple of years ago I introduced my Super Aminos product at my office. The research I had done revealed that we could meet our protein needs with very little actual protein if we got the exact ratio of the various component amino acids in exactly right. The truth is about 80% of the protein […]
My New Year is starting a little late this year. I went on vacation last week to Orlando and had a great time at Disney Hollywood, Epcot, Universal, and NASA. Our timing was perfect for the weather (mid 70’s with light fluffy clouds), but even more perfect for our NASA day excursion. Space X was […]
We had a little Octoberfest party in the court in our neighborhood this past weekend. Everybody in the neighborhood brought a pot luck dish and we all sat around in a big circle chatting while the kids rode bikes and played basketball. Phil, my across the street neighbor, has one of those commercial snow cone […]
