Active ChiroCare E-Zine - August 18, 2010

Active ChiroCare E-Zine Welcome to the second addition of the Active ChiroCare E-Zine!   School, fall sports, and band camp are upon us!  Want to make sure that your child or grandchild is performing as well as they can on the playing field (either as an athlete, cheerleader, or marching band member)?  Then consider this: Have their posture evaluated.  By having your spine analyzed, you can make sure that it's as structurally stable and your body frame is as strong as possible.  Headaches, neck pain, and back pain can all be helped by improving posture.  In addition, there are many studies that conclude that having proper posture, along with chiropractic care, can actually INCREASE your athletic performance!  There are two ways to have your posture analyzed:  visually and by taking x-rays.  From now  through September 13th, if you mention this E-Zine, your child or grandchild can have a FREE spinal exam and any necessary x-ray films taken to make sure their spinal posture is giving them optimum function and the highest potential for athletic performance! Life Active-ated This last week, I had the opportunity to help two different teenage girls who have scoliosis.  For those of you who don't know what scoliosis is, it's an abnormal curvature of the spine, and it affects about 2-3 million people each year.  Girls are also 7 times more likely to develop scoliosis than boys! .   But the reason I was excited to have the opportunity to help them was because of something called theSpineCor brace.  It's a revolutionary new brace for scoliosis that lets kids and adults move around more freely, and all the while the brace is helping reduce the amount of scoliosis!  It's also easily hidden underneath clothes, so that teenagers (particularly teenage girls) are less self-conscious in public.   What looks better to you: the old hard, inflexible and rigid brace, or the more flexible and comfortable SpineCor brace?         With school health check-ups around the corner, please don't hesitate to tell your friends and family members about the benefits of the SpineCor brace and how more and more families are choosing this fabulous option! As the 1st SpineCor Certified Doctor in Nebraska, I've had much experience in scoliosis rehabilitation, and I would love to help these families!  For more info, you can visit my SpineCor website atwww.ActiveScoliosisCare.com.   BStrong4Life News Osteoporosis  The Surgeon General states that increases in bone mineral density, to prevent or reverse the effects of osteoporosis, are stimulated by maximum loading on the musculoskeletal system. Regular, proper use of the BS4L™ System enables the user to safely achieve such maximum loading, and therefore helps combat the effects of osteoporosis. How BioDensity Works The BStrong4Life system involves four simple yet comprehensive isometric exercises: the chest press, leg press, core pull-up and vertical lift. A person performs each exercise on the equipment, as hard as they can, for 5 seconds. The equipment’s display panel informs them of the force they have produced. All four exercises take less than one minute to complete and are performed once a week.

When people ask me what really changed my life eight years ago, I tell them that absolutely the most important thing was changing what I demanded of myself. I wrote down all the things I would no longer accept in my life, all the things I would no longer tolerate, and all the things that I aspired to becoming."   - Anthony Robbins Questions or Comments?
