Chiropractic Saved Me

 

My x-ray in 1995 was similar to this
one.  The curve was reversed from 
a head injury as a child in 1971.  I 
was forming bone spurs in my mid- 
twenties.  I had a 20-30 year head 
start on arthritis.


This resembles the beginning of 

very debilitating fibromyalgia and 

other pain syndromes.  Also, 

studies of mild brain trauma are 

showing a correlation with 
depression and bipolar disorder, 

especially in teens who play sports.


It wasn't back pain or a headache 
that brought me to chiropractic.  In 
fact, I was pain free when I 
received my first adjustment.

I had a condition more painful than a physical injury 
because it was not physically obvious.  I had a certain 
arrogance that would have taken my health away if I 
hadn't been exposed to chiropractic thinking 17 years 
ago.

I was arrogant about health and healing because I 
was young. I took my health for granted because I 
thought nothing would make me sick.  I thought I 
knew how to take care of myself.  Boy, was I wrong!  

I  worked with people who were challenged by the 
label of mental illness. They were told they had a 
brain imbalance and they needed a steady supply of 
brain altering drugs to keep them "normal" by 
society's rules.

No one proved they had brain problems.  No one 
measured brain improvements to check if  the drugs 
really helped.  No one gave them an option to stop 
taking these drugs.   It was all one sided and my 
clients were actually getting worse.
If you or someone you know
has suffered under the psychiatric system
become a member of the 

I started teaching a few of my clients about stress 
reduction techniques and dietary changes.  Much to 
my surprise, they were improving and gaining  self 
confidence.  While I was addressing their physical 
health I began to see how the state of the body has a 
great deal of influence on mental function.

I realized my job as a therapist was a joke. If the 
body isn't healthy, the mind stays stuck (more like 
trapped).

After prayerful consideration to change careers, I 
looked at chiropractic.  I had no pain or health 
problems, but I volunteered in a chiropractor's office 
to learn about this drug free approach.

Not much of a science buff, I was awe struck when 
my new chiropractors (a married couple) taught me 
how the nervous system controls every cell, organ, 
body function, thought and emotion.  The nervous 
system is also considerably affected by the condition 
of the spine.  

It was also a major revelation when I learned how 
damage progresses for years but we don't feel it.

They showed me my X-rays and explained how 
mechanical disruptions of the spine adds incredible 
stress to the brain and spinal cord.  A sample X-ray 
above is very similar to my own X-rays.

This was a big mind shift to me.  I thought spinal cord 
damage was paralysis like Christopher Reeve.  I 
never considered milder forms of damage could have 
such an impact on disease and mental status.

If I never addressed this 17 years ago, I would have 
suffered from a gradual and progressive degenerative 
process. Pain doesn't show up until damage is fairly 
permanent.  Combine it with a stressful life style and  
poor nutrition and chronic disease takes hold.

I also learned chiropractic gave mental patients great 
results in the early 1900's before drug therapy 
became the monopolizing treatment.  It is now 
showing great promise for addiction recovery.

I often think about my therapy clients who felt 
helpless and defective.  Their nervous system/life 
force was stifled and no one offered them the release 
chiropractic can provide.

Chiropractic is not about pain relief.  Pain is  part of 
being human.  Chiropractic is about knowledge, 
personal power and being given options.  


My first interest is in mental wellness.   
Inside the mind are the sparks that ignite great 
ideas.  The body is the engine that allows us to push our ideas forward.  
They work as a team.



In my work as a mental health counselor I saw a serious separation 

between this awesome team.  
When physical health is not properly addressed, it clouds the mind.  
The body often 
gives us important clues.

Chiropractic rejoins the mind and body in an extraordinary 
way as the adjustment  enhances how the nervous system
 fosters innate intelligence.

Thanks for being curious.  
It means you are  looking for something new to try.  
You are in the process of a personal evolution.   
It's a superb journey!

I can't convey much more of it on a website.  Come to a health talk, come in for 
an appointment, or let's chat on a phone-coaching session.

It's Time to Take a Smart Multi


Phyto-Multi:  Advanced Multi for Cell protection, DNA stability, verified by ORAC testing  against 5 free radical types, not just one                 *Gluten free


Available at Homic Advanced Chiropractic 
$34.94 / one month supply, WOW! :)  (Compare to other genetic supplements that are up to $100)


Metagenics launches daily supplement PhytoMulti

December 14, 2011 — Metagenics Inc., a nutrigenomics and lifestyle medicine company dedicated to improving health, announced the launch of PhytoMulti, the unique “Smart Multi” daily supplement specifically designed to activate health potential with a science-based combination of phytonutrients, vitamins, and minerals.


The introduction of PhytoMulti supports Metagenics’ upcoming launch of its 2012 "Year of You” in-office program for health practitioners to offer patients —providing simple, healthy resolutions, and nutritional protocols for the new year to improve health.*

PhytoMulti is positioned as the “Smart Multi” because it’s designed to uniquely target cellular health to nourish cells, recharge cellular communication, and defend against free radical damage. PhytoMulti was created using extensive research to develop a strategic combination of phytonutrients — bioactive secondary metabolites in plant-based foods —­­ known for their antioxidant properties and positive influence on cell signaling to communicate healthy messages throughout the body.

This proprietary blend of 13 concentrated plant extracts and phytonutrients has been scientifically tested for potential biological activity to protect cells via antioxidant capacity and maintenance of DNA stability.*

“PhytoMulti not only targets cell protection, but advanced laboratory tests have shown its potential for superior biological activity to deliver support that may ultimately influence health in a number of ways,” said Joseph Lamb, MD, director of intramural clinical research for Metagenics. "PhytoMulti is the only professional brand daily supplement that provides this sophisticated level of scientific evidence."*

An independent laboratory evaluated PhytoMulti’s proprietary blend and the entire combination of active ingredients with the new total functional oxygen radical absorbance capacity (ORACFN) assay that measures against five major free radicals.

Unlike a conventional ORAC, which tests against only one radical, this expanded in vitro assay provides a better sense of antioxidant protection against a variety of potentially damaging free radicals and other reactive oxygen species. An analysis of PhytoMulti's active ingredients (equivalent to the contents in one tablet) showed a total ORACFN value of 12,600 trolox, demonstrating exceptional antioxidant capacity.*

The potential of the phytonutrient blend to help maintain DNA stability was validated using the COMET assay, a complex in vitro test using human immune cells. This assay demonstrated a 52 percent increase in DNA stability when cells pretreated with the phytonutrient blend were compared to control cells introduced to the same oxidative medium (peroxides).*

“PhytoMulti is a one-of-a-kind supplement that begins with a novel phytonutrient base and is enhanced with essential vitamins and minerals to provide multidimensional health support like no other foundation nutrition formula,” continued Lamb.

PhytoMulti contains a combination of plant extracts with complex phytonutrients and additional phytonutrients that were selected for their targeted support for cellular health and function, as well as for their positive influence in multiple pathways and health systems.

Metagenics performs a rigorous ingredient selection process that includes high performance thin layer chromatography (hpTLC) to confirm plant species and phytonutrient profiles, and high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) to verify the presence of key plant bioactives. This seed-to-shelf diligence assures plant authenticity and a full spectrum of phytonutrients designed for multi-faceted support — beginning with cell protection.*

In addition to the phytonutrient blend, PhytoMulti also delivers a concentrated daily dose of:
  • Clinically effective levels of select plant bioactives — resveratrol, lutein, zeaxanthin and lycopene — to help support health of the eyes, liver, heart, and more*
  • An optimized blend of essential minerals and vitamins, including vitamin forms designed for greater bioavailability: vitamin D3, L-5-methyltetrahydrofolate (folate) and methylcobalamin (B12)
In the “Year of You” program, this “Smart Multi” is an option to complement a variety of personalized protocols to promote wellness and vitality. The goal of the program is to introduce patients to science-based products that support long-term health. Other featured components include the Identi-T stress management protocols and the Wellness Essentials line of daily packet products that provide a personalized combination of Metagenics formulas — including PhytoMulti.*

PhytoMulti will be available Jan. 1, 2012, through health practitioners nationwide. PhytoMulti with Iron, formulated for those who may [need/benefit from] supplemental iron, will be available Feb. 1, 2012.*

How to Need Less Supplements


I've talked with people who buy over $300-$400 worth of supplements a month so they can have better health. I've also talked with people who go to Kinney's or WalMart and buy an antioxidant for $7.00. Who is healthier?

Did you say neither? I hope so.

It is an disputable fact that we need supplements because the food supply is grossly adulterated all the way from the farm to the store and then your home.

Soil nutrients are depleted, processed foods are made from GMO corn and other grains. Sugar use has skyrocketed in the last century giving us some pretty addictive desires for unhealthy foods. Even our mass farmed livestock are over fed grains and chemicals for a better profit outcome.

All that said, even with a steady diet of home cooked foods and fresh produce (as fresh as we can get from the store) we need to supplement with high quality vitamins, minerals, and adaptogenic nutricueticals.

I truly believe a good supplement routine is necessary for optimal health. Do you need to spend $300-$400 dollars a month? No. If you are ask yourself this: Am I feeling better? It is possible you still have nagging health issues.

Should you go to Kinney's and WalMart and buy what is on the shelves? No. You must have more on the label than a cheap price. A supplement company should be researched for its raw materials, bio-availability, and purity testing.

We know we need to make a small investment in supplements but how do we narrow down the choices?

The most important factor is your daily diet. At this point, evaluate how close you are to the Paleo-Primal diet. I say this because if you are not, you are probably taking needless supplements to help you with health issues related to your diet.

If you think your diet is healthy, visit my Myth of the Month website. And stick around on my new Time to GO Paleo blog. More is coming.

When you fix your diet, you will need less supplements.

Ask me about it at your next visit. We will discuss if you are getting enough protein. A poor protein balance can throw off Calcium, Magnesium, and Potassium . More minerals won't fix it. Protein intake will. We can talk about replacing grains with high fat foods that make your appetite happy and your waistline smaller.

Do You Have a Food Hangover & Not Know It?


I had too many carbs two days ago. It was a Friday. I had a headache on Saturday. I've been so good with my low carb eating plan that I felt bad that I over did it. Depending on how quickly I get back to my routine, I will still feel the effects of my overeating for one or two more days. I won't be gross, but other digestive maladies take a while to go away.

How about the folks who haven't gotten an handle on their food issues? People who can't lose weight or have constant stiffness or headaches are usually dealing with a stressed digestive system. When this happens the nerves connected to the digestive organs will send reflexes to their partner muscles and joints.

Every spinal nerve root delivers information for the organs and it's neighboring muscles.



If you are having a food hangover, you feel stiffness or pain in the musculo-skeletal system every time you move.

Ask me how chiropractic can translate these body reactions so you can get rid of your food hangover.

John Gray: Why Women Need "Venus Work" Not "Mars Work"


John Gray is not just the best selling author of the Mars/Venus books, he is an expert on nutritional cleansing for mental health and relationships!

I recently received this article in one of my Isagenix newsletters: Best-selling author Dr. John Gray already shared the secrets to helping men and women communicate more clearly with his best-selling book series “Men Are From Mars, Women Are From Venus,” but he says there’s another piece of the puzzle when it comes to creating vibrant, healthy relationships — Nutritional Cleansing.

John, one of our Millionaires and 6-Star Golden Circle member with Isagenix, wasn’t looking to lose weight or inches when he said “yes” to “nutritional cleansing” in 2002. In fact, it was the combination of the amino acids and active enzymes found in our Shake that actually hooked him.

The Brain Matters
“I was researching amino acids at the time and found that they contribute to optimal brain function, which could make relationships better,” explains John. “As we are affected by impurities, we lose optimal brain function and are not able to deal with stress as well. The shake was far superior to any other product I had been testing on the market.”

Gaining Insight with a Weight Loss Side Effect
To his surprise, John lost 16 pounds* after using the products. He decided to take things to another level and get in touch with Master Formulator and Founder John Anderson to learn more about the products and even discuss creating the Mars Venus Wellness Solution™ with special ingredients to suit the needs of men and women. The pair added omega-3s to the Mars Venus Superfoods Shake™ for women for healthier hair, skin and nails and more protein to the men’s shake because men need more protein on a daily basis. They even added a daily cleanse drink, the Mars Venus Super Cleanse™ to give the body what it needs every day to help remove impurities from the body.

Since his discovery, John has shared “nutritional cleansing” with hundreds of people around the world. At first, he wasn’t interested in building a home business, but the opportunity created a residual income that has given him freedom to spend more time on research while producing additional Mars Venus books. Not to mention the fact that it’s also given him more time to vacation with his family in his favorite spot in Hawaii, the island of Maui.

Combat Stress Knowing Your Gender Traits
Now John is focusing his efforts on sharing how men and women cope differently with stress with his newest book “Why Mars and Venus Collide.” He enjoyed sharing more of the practical solutions for handling stress as the keynote speaker at 2009 “Living Your Dreams” Celebration in Anaheim, California in August and believes that “nutritional cleansing” is the answer to many of the stressors women especially experience.


“Women today are under a whole new level of stress because of activities in the work world. That message of you can do it all for many women has caused stress levels to increase and is putting them in constant urgency and emergency states. Those situations create testosterone and that hormone helps men cope with stress, but it doesn’t help women,” explains John. “Network marketing is actually one of the best businesses for women because it allows them the flexibility they need to take care of the home, children and other activities that have oxytocin benefits, the hormone that lowers stress.”

John says our company is especially good for women seeking the right network marketing opportunity because it’s all about nurturing and helping others improve their health, wealth and happiness, all oxytocin-producing activities. But ultimately, he says understanding how men and women function differently is important to know because it can lead to healthier relationships and an even healthier business.

“This a company of happy, healthy individuals and the quality of our relationships is important for our health,” shares John. “ Healthy relationships also translate into a more successful business because by understanding how men and women are different, you can identify each person’s unique needs when you share it with them.”

Cancer Screening: Not Saving Lives

"If you look outside the body, you will be let down each and every time." --Dr. Lisa


Dr. Julian Whitaker has made an unpopular statement about the problems with cancer screenings. If cancer screenings were so great, cancer would be a thing of the past. READ The Myth of Cancer Screening Here

After you read Dr. Whitaker's article you are going to wonder, "What now?"

There is plenty we can do about cancer.

#1 - Get adjusted with Advanced-Lifetime-Care. There is an important reason my office is an Advanced-Lifetime-Care office. People who are adjusted regularly have shown to have healthier DNA. Can you feel your DNA failing you? Not really. Read about the study on DNA and chiropractic. Getting adjusted is easy. Almost too easy. People seem to want something complicated. It just takes commitment--about 5-10 minutes a week. Advanced-Lifetime-Care is also designed to be affordable. Cancer treatment is not.

#2 - Get your nutrition from diet and supplements. The best way to deal with cancer is with a strong body that can heal itself. Chemicals just don't do it. Surgery can cut out cancerous tissues but it will likely come back because the cellular insults that spur cancer proliferation are not addressed.

#3 - Heal your emotions with a realistic attitude. Change yourself and stop changing others. Enjoy life moment by moment. The past is over and the future will never be the way you imagine it. Harboring useless "stuff" allows cancer to be harbored in the body. Read A New View of Cancer.

#4 - Believe in the healing power of the body.
If you look outside the body you will be let down each and every time.

Remember, you get to choose.
