I Am Worried...

 About 10-15 years ago I was watching a trend of middle aged people struggling to remain in the work force.  They just wanted to make it to the date they could receive their retirement benefits.  Folks in their late 50's were suffering with chronic conditions that made it difficult to physically  perform their duties.  

If you've been on the job doing the same activities that you've done for decades, and then it becomes a challenge to keep up with everyone else, it's demoralizing.  I've had many practice members who felt as if their presence at their job is a waste because they knew their productivity was lacking.  Others times, they were dreading possible confrontations with coworkers losing their patience with them because they were becoming a drag on the whole team.  Termination was also a reality. 

I've worked with people who were unable to sit for a few hours because of pain, so even people with a sedentary job have troubles.  

When people feel they are not contributing to their jobs the way they used to, it becomes a heavy mental burden, which does take a toll. 

Now, here we are in 2025 and as I am approaching retirement age I realize I am part of this group.  I still have many years before I reach the age of retirement (62/65/67/70) and will most likely keep on working.

I have a new worry regarding my aging practice members.  We've all watched how prices are rising ridiculously.  Housing is expensive along with groceries, car repairs, etc. Social security and other retirement pensions are not realistically keeping up with the current economy.  Many have already burned through their savings.  It makes the future bleak and scary.  

In order to keep up, many seniors are still in the workforce.  Up to 19% of workers are over age 65. The numbers are increasing especially in the group of seniors over age 75. 

I'm working with people who are in this predicament. Their current state of health is limiting their ability to do the work they need to make enough money.  Pain, old injuries affecting mobility, low energy, weak muscles, shortness of breath interfere with the ability to stay organized, maintain a work schedule, get adequate sleep and have general feelings of satisfaction.  

I'm worried about providing adequate help to my practice members who feel they cannot maintain an active role in society.   I see the results of mainstream health care and I see what mainstream health care ignores, so I hope to offer this important missing component to my practice members.   (Crucial to all ages, by the way...not just retired folks.)

Sometimes they hit a wall, a plateau.  They feel better but just don't have enough energy or strength to tolerate the physical and mental demands of their day.  This leads them to restrict their lives. 

There are others out there in my town who have no idea how chiropractic can impact their overall health.  It's not on their radar.  They haven't been exposed to the importance of nervous system care. 

 

So, for my current practice members who don't feel they have enough energy to achieve their goals, I offer a deeper look at my Brain Budget Protocol. I present an organized way to approach health with chiropractic, mind-set and life style. 

1- Ask me about the Brain Budget Protocol

2- Take part in my Body Language Declassified Seminar

3- Learn how to incorporate MMNS into your life-style. 

I'm on the journey with you.
