Chiropractors Top Satisfaction Survey

One of the biggest annual American surveys of its kind has found that users of chiropractic were highly satisfied with the outcomes of their care unlike many other forms of complementary and alternative therapy.

The annual questionnaire conducted by the US Consumer Reports National Research Center surveyed 45,601 Consumer Reports subscribers online, and found that three out of four were using some form of alternative or complementary therapy for their general health. Chiropractic dominated the lists of helpful approaches for particular conditions whereas other alternative treatments used for 12 common health problems were usually deemed far less helpful than prescription medicine.

According to Dr Hayden Thomas, chiropractor and spokesperson for the New Zealand Chiropractors’ Association: ‘Hands-on care such as chiropractic along with the mind-body practice of yoga topped the lists of helpful alternatives for discomfort from conditions such as back pain, neck pain, and osteoarthritis.’

Chiropractic outperformed all other back pain treatments. Around six in 10 of those who used chiropractic or deep-tissue massage said it helped a lot as a neck treatment. Those who tried chiropractic or deep-breathing exercises for fibromyalgia said they helped as much as or more than over-the-counter medications.

The survey indicated that some widely used dietary supplements ranked far below over-the-counter medications in many cases.
Respondents said their doctors were generally aware of their use of complementary approaches for their medical conditions. For instance, 81 percent of those who sought chiropractic care said their doctors knew about it and 21 percent who used chiropractic said their doctors had recommended it. One in four respondents undergoing chiropractic care for any condition said their chiropractor was more interested and insightful than their medical doctors.

There appear to be a number of reasons people look at alternative therapies, says Dr Thomas; They may have gone through a major life event or illness that has caused them to look at their health in a different way, some are frustrated with conventional approaches or the side effects of drugs, and others prefer dietary supplements or herbal remedies to medicines because they’re natural, even though it’s not necessarily the case that they are safer or have less side effects than conventional medications.

Whatever health care approach people choose, there are potential risks along with the possible benefits, and practitioners of all kinds are encouraged to work together for the good of the patient’ adds Dr Thomas.

Simple Ways to Get Rid Arthritis

Did you know that exercise and staying active is not only good for your health, but it can also help relieve the symptoms of arthritis? As a matter of fact, the American College of Rheumatology (ACR) announced that people with arthritis who exercise have less pain, more energy, improved sleep, and better day-to-day function. Staying active also can help you keep your joints flexible and improve your ability to move as well.

But before you start any exercise program, it’s important to talk to your doctor.

Different types of exercises include:

1.    Aerobic — Low impact activities like walking, swimming, water aerobics, or riding a bike are good options. These can put less stress on your joints while they help build endurance and improve cardiovascular health.

  1. Strength Training — Strength-training exercises, like those that use weights or elastic bands for resistance, can build muscle tissue, which, in turn, helps support and protect the body’s joints.
  2. Range-of-Motion/Stretching — Together, range-of-motion and stretching exercises can help relieve stiffness and increase joint mobility. They can also help relieve stress. Moving your joints through their normal range of motion can help keep them flexible, so you can go about your daily routine more comfortably.

Besides helping to ease arthritis symptoms, exercise can also improve your mood, strengthen your heart, improve blood flow, help you lose weight.

Getting proper sleep is also an important part of managing arthritis symptoms. If you find that joint pain is interfering with your ability to rest or sleep, talk to your doctor.

The Secrets to Improve Your Fibromyalgia Signs and Symptoms

The initial step is to have a complete physical examination to know what the real source of your Fibromyalgia is. It is crucial that your health care professional analyzes that CAUSE of your condition. As what we always tackled in our previous contents. Fibromyalgia is a condition that is very complex with various causes. Chasing the symptoms with medications is just temporary and presents massive amount of side effects. In our expertise, people with mild to moderate Fibromyalgia cases can see considerable improvement by means of following these easy steps.

  1. 1.    Dietary alters to improve your own nutrition… diminish carbohydrates, stimulant and increase your pH as well.

Initially, I persuade you to give an attention and focus on balance. Nurturing your body with balanced meals and snacks can do surprise for your energy and nourish your general health concurrently.  I used to tell to my patients to eat their best 80 % of the time. The other 20 % is up to them. Never tolerate yourself to get too hungry, Low blood sugar puts stress on your body and can expunge your adrenals.

Eating meals and snacks without chemicals, preservatives or added hormones that are made of fresh whole foods, preferably organic or locally grown, without chemicals, preservatives or added hormones are the finest to strive for. Eating your meals with proteins (especially in the morning) will have a constant effect on your blood sugar. This can help you sequentially overcome caffeine and sugar cravings. Through following alkalizing pH diet of 70-80 % fruits and vegetable and 20-30 % protein and fat you’ll have a great start to restore your biochemical health.

Comprise these alkaline foods within you daily diet.

The following are the nutritious fruits that should be included in your daily diet:

Watermelon, cayenne celery, watermelon, asparagus, fruit juices, grapes, kiwifruit, passion fruit, pears (sweet), pineapple, raisins, plums, vegetable juices, apples, alfalfa sprouts, apricots, avocados, bananas (ripe), currants, dates, figs (fresh), garlic, grapefruit, herbs (leafy green), Lemons, dates, figs, kelp, limes, mango, melons, papaya, parsley, seaweeds, seedless grapes, watercress, lettuce (leafy green), nectarine, peaches, pears, peas (fresh, sweet), pumpkin, sea salt, beans (fresh, green), beets, bell peppers, broccoli, cabbage, carob, cauliflower, ginger (fresh), oranges, potatoes (with skin), ), turnip, vinegar (apple cider), pineapple, raisins, plums, vegetable juices, apples, alfalfa sprouts, apricots, avocados, bananas (ripe), currants, dates, figs (fresh), garlic, nectarine, peaches, pears, peas (fresh, sweet), pumpkin, sea salt, beans (fresh, green),  and beets.

As much as possible avoid processed foods! Processed foods are loaded with chemicals that are not just toxic but also very acidic to our body. It’s fascinating to note that to neutralize a glass of cola with a pH of 2.5; it would take 32 glasses of alkaline water with a pH of 10!

  1. 2.    Reducing Stress

Reducing stress includes moderate exercise as well as taking more time for yourself. It’s beneficial to create a list of your stressors, especially those that are continuous. Yoga along with meditation is very effective to reduce stress. Alternative to reaching for that coffee mid afternoon, why not take 15-20 minutes to relax herbal teas that contains Siberian ginseng and passion flower. Herbal teas support your adrenals unlike caffeine drains them.

  1. 3.    Get your spine examined regularly

Supporting the function of adrenal glands is the thoracic spinal nerves especially at the T9 and T10 level control. If there are subluxations (spinal misalignments) at these levels, you’ll have intervention of these nerve pathways, which result in suboptimal adrenal function. Indeed, your nerve system controls every tissue, organ, and system in your body. Poor posture, old injuries, and everyday stress cause misalignments in your spine. When it is left uncorrected, misalignment at any level in the spine will affect the nerve supply to different organs, cells and muscles. Chiropractor adjustments correct subluxations where the nerve interference or interventions are removed and therefore allow your body to function or work at a higher level which will lead to overall better health.

  1. 4.    Medical-grade nutritional supplements.

Ensuring your body has the rich nutrients it needs to make and balance its hormones and support your adrenal glands is the nutraceuticals. Patients with fibromyalgia conditions are usually lack of b vitamins, magnesium, and greens in their diet. High quality “Green Drink” and adrenal adaptogen will generally help support the adrenal glands and alkalize the body.

  1. 5.    Take enough rest.

Your body must time to heal. You have to sleep 7-8 hours every night!

With our many years of practice, we’ve noticed that the key to longevity and wellness is to center your health about self care and health care which will radically reduce your chances of suffering from health catastrophes. It is time for the broken health care system. Keep in mind that, statistics show that most of us are going to live to 100 years of age. The question is…Do you want to live these years healthy or not? It’s your choice. At some point in your life you will experience that you have to make a choice.  If you move toward your health proactively, you’ll experience the quality of life should have.

So what exactly your pH have to do with Fibromyalgia?

Salivary pH should remain in a series of 7.0-7.5 for health body function. Once saliva pH falls below 7.0 or urine pH falls below 6.0 your nutrients are not being absorbed, your body turns to become toxic and your body’s cells are bathing to acid. Body aches as well as fatigue are the major symptoms of an overly acidic body.  And the most common issues of fibromyalgia are all over body and fatigue as well.

How can you maintain your PH at a healthy range of 7.0-7.5?

Establish a correct diet and lifestyle! – This is one of the best ways to correct an overly acid body. If you’re very healthy and don’t have any chronic health problems, in order to maintain your health, diet should consist of 60 % alkaline forming foods and 40 % acid forming foods.

Dr. Wander’s 80/20 Rule to Achieve Better Health

Consider this to yourself, “Is my own eating habits 60-80 % fruits and vegetables and 20-40 % meat, breads, diary, pastas and grains?” Most likely it’s NOT. As a manifestation, most of our patients once they first notice of us are diffident or backwards eaters. They usually eat 80 % of meat, breads, diary, pastas/grains and just 20 % of fruits and vegetables. Modern medicine nowadays has prolonged our lives, yet the quality is terrible! The sad thing is the Americans are the unhealthiest people in the world. Majority of people deem that their health problems are aging and genetic outcomes, but lifestyle and diet are the prime cause accountable for poor health. Backwards eating people are certain to have more constant health issues as they grow older such as fibromyalgia, arthritis, osteoporosis, gall bladder dysfunction, headaches, heart disease, joint pain etc.

By means of following the 80/20 rule which is 80 % fruit and vegetables and 20 % breads, dairy pasta and grains, will considerably amplify the alkalinity in your tissues which will direct to a significant improvement in your fibromyalgia symptoms. It is quite crucial to remember that altering the body’s pH doesn’t cure disease however it allows the body to heal itself through getting rid of toxins. Through learning about alkaline-acid connection, you’ll be able to obtain knowledge on how to create an internal environment that not only fight fibromyalgia but functions at more advanced level.

With our many years of practice, we’ve noticed that the key to longevity and wellness is to center your health about self care and health care which will radically reduce your chances of suffering from health catastrophes. It is time for the broken health care system. Keep in mind that, statistics show that most of us are going to live to 100 years of age. The question is…Do you want to live these years healthy or not? It’s your choice. At some point in your life you will experience that you have to make a choice.  If you move toward your health proactively, you’ll experience the quality of life should have.

To conclude, you have a lot of things learned and therefore enjoyed our Fibromyalgia Series these past few months. Our goal is to educate the public about the various causes of this complex condition to inform you on the many advance options available to you to enhance your total quality of life. Bear in mind that “knowledge is power”. It will enable you to make the best choice or decisions for better health. I advised you to continue to educate yourself, your family as well as your friends about how to exactly boost your health. As what we always wanted to say – We will never have “Health Care Reform” until we have “Self Care Reform”!

Even though fibromyalgia is a complex, multifaceted combination of symptoms that originate from a wide array of methods in your body that have gone haywire, it can be understood, if you take the time to look at and assemble the actual pieces of the puzzle.

Know the Secrets to Improve Your Fibromyalgia Signs and Symptoms

In this last part of our Fibromyalgia collection we are going to find out how Fibromyalgia is related to your biochemical health. In our several years of practiced, we’ve found out that the symptoms of Fibromyalgia could be reduced and even resolute by means of dealing with the body’s PH and hormonal health.

We’re going to look first at pH as well as the connection it has with the Fibromyalgia patient. Bodies are the living laboratories. We stay alive and breathe right now due to our complex nervous system as well as the foods we eat and drink. Such fuel we absorb and the oxygen from our lungs is “burned” in our cells, creating numerous chemical reactions to take place. While the products that are left are referred as CO2 or carbon dioxide, H2O or water and an ash remain. This is just like how do our fireplaces and automobiles work, but their food is gasoline and firewood respectively. What matter is…how do our ashes remains measure up and how does it affect to our overall health? The answer is based on whether this ash remains is acid or alkaline.

Therefore what does it mean to be acid or alkaline? What is the meaning of PH? It’s not what you think of PH of swimming pool. With our scientific world, PH stands for “potential of Hydrogen.” Alternatively, we’ll just say that, in our body, PH stands for our potential for Health. Generally, the PH scale runs from 0-14. (Zero) 0 in the low end indicates really strong, complete acidity and the high end, while 14 inches indicates really strong, complete alkalinity. 7.0 indicating that the substance is neither acid nor alkaline and therefore it’s neutral in the middle of the scale. In terms of PH of your body, we mean the PH of the fluids inside and outside your cells, also referred to your “internal environment”. Thus, assess the pH representing the “potential for health” of the fluids and around your cells.

The particular PH of saliva proffers a general window through where you can see the overall body pH balance. According to some studies, body fluids of healthy people are slightly alkaline while the same fluids of those who are sick are acidic, ranging from slightly acidic to extremely acidic. On the book “the Secrets of Ph Concerning Health and Disease” of Dr. Mark Cochran, he states, the body should remain in a slightly alkaline condition in order to avoid premature aging and disease.

I advise using pH strips (litmus paper) to examine your overall pH in your body. It is the most effortless and fastest way to test your pH. Such test strips are economical and accessible at most trustworthy nutrition companies. Such paper can be used in examining urine or saliva, and the color of the paper will alter to reflect your pH level. To reveal your pH, merely compare the color of the paper to the color scale on the side of the package.

How the symptoms of fibromyalgia can be influenced by our hormones

In our opinion, one of the most missed conditions in medicine today is the Adrenal Fatigue

Poor sleep, aches, pains, fatigue, unexplained weight gain, anxiety, depression as well as memory loss….all of these sound familiar?

Each problem to the mind and body creates a demand on the adrenal glands (your body’s stress glands). Today, these problems are endless; the threat of losing your job, a demanding boss, financial pressures, lack of sleep, relationship problems, yo-yo dieting death or illness of a loved one skipping meals, dependence on stimulants such as caffeine and sugar, over-exercise, infection or illness and digestive issues. With this, the result is…. Adrenals are over producing and are constantly on high alert. Thus the over worked adrenal glands are eventually worn out consequential in this commonly missed condition….ADRENAL FATIGUE

Cortisol – Fibromyalgia Connection

Produced by the adrenals in response to physical, environmental and psychological stress is the hormone cortisol. Cortisol is essential for the action of almost every function of your body! This crucial hormone normalizes other hormones, glucose metabolism as well as the immune system. This affects the blood pressure, hear, and water excretion, the eyes, and the GI tract along with reproduction function. Additionally, Cortisol is also required to combat inflammation in the body! The anti-inflammatory effect of cortisol is quite vital to control the Fibromyalgia symptoms. If you’re not produce enough cortisol (Adrenal fatigue), your body tend to be raging with inflammation leading to Fibromyalgia and a multitude of other constant health issues.

How can I make a Test for Adrenal Fatigue?

Conventional medicines examine cortisol levels by way of blood testing. This form of testing evaluates you against pathological ranges and therefore will detect only the extremes of these conditions once the damage to the adrenals has already arisen. Any cortisol level within this very broad range is recognized normal and anything outside that range signifies disease. It connotes that your doctor will tell you that you are “normal” if you don’t have the Addison’s disease of Cushing’s syndrome

How often have you advised your blood tests came back “normal” to wonder… and ask “why do I feel this way”.

Within those extreme conditions, you may feel depressed and still be told your cortisol levels are normal. However through taking an action to adrenal fatigue early stage symptoms, you’ll be able to reverse the developing dysfunction of your own adrenal glands.

As we practice our way of our medication, we assess the test for adrenal malfunction before the illness starts. This is performed with salivary hormone testing and questionnaires. Adrenal profile contains four saliva samples taken throughout the course of usual day therefore the cortisol circadian rhythm can be concluded. It can help recognize the stage or level of adrenal exhaustion and provide and accurate appraisal of adrenal dysfunction for every patient. Normal test results must show cortisol elevated in the morning to help you get going, lower but stable throughout the day to maintain the energy and decline in the evening to support restful sleep. To sum up, if your energy lags throughout the day, you’re likely to experience chronic pains and aches, feel emotionally unbalanced, frequently consume caffeine or carbohydrates as “pick-me-ups”, unable to lose weight even while having a diet and exercise, suffer from sleepless nights or less than seven hours at night – then I am really counseling you to get your adrenals tested. Probably you have some level of adrenal dysfunction.
