Self-Care

There are so many things you can do for yourself at home.  Today I am going to remind you of a few.

Doing these will take only a few minutes and will reap benefits.

  • As you are standing, squeeze your butt cheeks together ten times. If you have a chronic low back, do it about every hour.  Great opportunities are while standing in line to pay for groceries, filling the car with gas and washing dishes.  But don’t forget, you can do it while sitting too.
  • Find your rolling pin in the kitchen. Use it on your body, rolling the muscles.  Generally, you massage toward the heart, no matter where you are on the body.  I find so many people have tight legs.  Start at your Achilles and go up toward your hip.  If your hips are tight, you can roll them too.
  • I read a study once that said the number one habit over years and years that led to good health was deep breathing. Let the breathing begin.  When you breathe in, your stomach should go out.  When you breathe out, your stomach should go in.  Your shoulders stay still.  All the action is in the abdomen.  Stop once a day and just practice breathing!
  • Be Happy! There is nothing more healing than happiness.  You may think you can’t create it, but you can.  For proof, just be around a small child, a sweet animal or put on some music that makes you want to dance!  Practice smiling!

Often, we forget to do small things to help us feel better because our focus is out there in the world instead of inside our body.  Be serious about doing these.   Print this page off or write these down on a notecard and put them on your bathroom mirror or your refrigerator as a reminder.  Don’t wait for pain to be your reminder!

And, if you wish you had seen the Vaccines Revealed, and didn’t get a chance, there is another free showing for a limited time.  Go here.

Is Your Posture Affecting Your Health?

People watching is an interesting business, especially in the summer.  The beach is the best, but anywhere will do.  Watch people as they walk, and their posture will talk to you.  You can tell if they are in pain while walking.  You can tell if their head juts forward or if one shoulder is higher than the other.  It is one thing to see it in others.  But look in the mirror.  Do you have postural distortions?

As I tell my patients, let’s look at the long-term picture.  It isn’t just about what is happening today, but we want to have good posture in 20 years from now.

Like Roger Dangerfield (for those who might remember him), posture gets no respect.  There are many studies that correlate posture with health.  Your posture speaks volumes.  And to change it takes work.  As long as you are healthy, doing a little work on your posture each day will pay off dividends.

So today, look in the mirror and notice your posture.  You might even take a photo of yourself.  Over time, continue to notice and see if you can make corrections.  You change posture through strengthening the stretched muscles and stretching the tight muscles.  If you need help to determine what those are, come in and see me!

Do You Feel Free To Make Choices Concerning Your Own Body?

 

Do you feel free to make decisions about what choices you make about your own body?  Celebrating the Fourth of July is to remind us of our freedoms and our duty to protect them.

I’m concerned with medical freedom.

The series, “Vaccines Revealed,” just aired and one of the concerns is that people are being held hostage to vaccinate.  It used to simply be a choice.  Now people are told their job is dependent on their being vaccinated, that their children’s education is dependent on their being vaccinated.  And at the same time, the CDC has known since 2001 that vaccines cause autism.  There is something wrong with this equation, right?

Where was the freedom for those who were born since 2001 whose parents did not get the memo, and became autistic?

Where is our freedom to stay well?  Where is our freedom to make our own choices about our health care and the health care of our children?  We will, as a country, either reverse this trend or by 2032 one in two new births will become autistic.  And if you think that is a genetic problem, that isn’t possible.

But don’t believe me.

I like for my patients to look for confirmation of anything I say.  Now, don’t expect confirmation from the CDC.  They have an agenda:  sell vaccines while they are supposed to be keeping us safe.  And, they don’t want it found out that they knew all along.  After all, what would you think of them?  But again, don’t believe me.

I knew that many people would be unable to watch the link I gave in the health tips for the nine consecutive days of video.

They were over an hour and a half long.  That is a lot of time for anyone.  So, I purchased the set of videos.  I did not purchase them for me.  I am not having any children or grandchildren.  I am not getting vaccinations. I bought them for you, my patients, to borrow from me and educate yourself.  I can’t expect you to believe me.  I don’t want you to believe me.

I want you to get good information and synthesize it for yourself.  Come to your own conclusions.

If I just wanted you to do what I suggest, I could have saved my money.  I bought this for you.  Please, for the sake of your children’s and grandchildren’s health, listen to both sides of the issue and make up your own mind.

Isn’t that what real freedom is about?

And while you are at it, enjoy the Fourth of July!!  Let’s not take our freedom for granted!

Detox Bath, Ear Ache and Castor Oil Pack

After 30 years in practice, I still suggest the same therapies like the detox bath, the onion for an ear ache and a castor oil pack.

They work as many of my patients testify.  I have even made videos for you to make it as easy as possible to use and understand these therapies.

In case you haven’t seen my videos, please watch them and pass them around as they work for everyone!  They are also on my website under Resources.

The body doesn’t change that much over time.   In other words, the same therapy I used 30 years ago when I started practice, works today.  Why wouldn’t it?  The body gets older, but the genes don’t change.  We know from epigenetic research, it is more about the environment we put the body in that allows the expression of certain genes.

Our society has gotten used to the latest greatest medications.

Wait a few years and you will discover the side effects.

Some will be discontinued, just like surgeries.   It isn’t often you hear of a child having their tonsils removed today, and yet when I was a child, it was customary.

I have to wonder, in 20 years, will they still be using amphetamines to treat ADHD in children?  The side effects are not pretty and it says in the insert that the medication shouldn’t be used more than 60 days.  Do you know anyone who has stopped using the medication after 60 days?

Natural therapies that were good 30 years ago are still good today.  Use them first!!

I hope you took advantage of the Vaccines Revealed series.  It is EXCELLENT!!

Do You Vaccinate?

If you vaccinate, please watch the video series Vaccines Revealed.

It is an online video series that starts today!

If you sign up with this link, you will be sent a segment each day for about 9 days.

Perhaps you need more information to make an informed decision.  You can do your own private investigation by going to the CDC offices in Atlanta and wade through their research, or you can watch the video series that starts today called Vaccines Revealed.

We need to have a national discussion about vaccines.

Recently the first ever study was run where they compared vaccine children to non-vaccine children and (drumroll) the non-vaccine children were healthier.

We need to do some serious research.  Vaccines have never been proven to be safe, necessary or work  and yet look how many people are vaccinated.

If we are going to take them, let’s make sure they are safe, effective and necessary for our health.  When you think of vaccine, you might think of getting an immune response.  But did you know you get aluminum too?  Mercury too.

I think mercury is the second most toxic chemical in the world.

Are you sure you want to put it in your body?  And, have you noticed how many people are getting Alzheimer’s?

But please, don’t take my word for it.  Listen to those who have done the research personally.

And, if it is like last time, a man who has an autistic son and is employed as a researcher held my attention for the whole series.

Who will be your favorite person interviewed?

Please leave a comment as to who is your favorite interviewee.  And, remember, GOOD HEALTH IS PRICELESS!!

Stem Cell Therapy

You will never be younger than you are at this moment.  There is no time like the present if you want to save some of your stem cells for use in the future.

The younger the stem cells are, the more active they will be.

As stem cell therapy becomes more popular, you are more likely to want to choose stem cell therapy instead of a knee replacement or shoulder surgery.   We as insurers should make our voices heard.  If you are part of an insurance group, the insurance company “should” try to cut costs as well as poor outcomes.

In Denver, a hip replacement costs about $57,000.  A knee replacement costs about $48,000.  You can get stem cell therapy for less than $10,000.

The insurance companies will say it is an experimental procedure.  How long will they need to perform these procedures before they are normal practice and not experimental?

Just consider the poor outcomes from surgery.  I don’t have to write about it as you have friends and stories that are as good as mine.

There is always the possibility of problems from surgery.

And the rehab for the joint replacements are not fun.  It is hard work.

As it stands now, anyone who wants to try the stem cell therapy has to pay out of pocket.

How much more is  your insurance is because they won’t pay for stem cell?

Why don’t insurance companies cover stem cell?  You could always have the surgery if the stem cell doesn’t work, but there would be far fewer surgeries and far fewer poor outcomes.

I don’t  do these procedures so I don’t have a horse in the race as they say.  But common sense says surgery carries a lot more problems than stem cell.  Here is an article from a Dr. who has done stem cell for 20 years.  Enjoy!
