Reasons to See a Chiropractor

You might need the services of Columbus chiropractors more than you think. There are several instances where they are the only ones who can provide solutions to your health problems. Chiropractors treat individuals suffering from spine, neck, and limb pain.

Here are some of them:

Back and Neck Pain

Chiropractors employ a wide variety of techniques designed to eliminate pain in the neck, upper back, and lower back. They believe that spinal misalignments can cause the nervous system to function improperly, sending the wrong signals to different parts of the body and causing a host of ailments. Their methods promote structural wellness, so they’ll strive to not only do away with your discomfort, but also to enhance your overall wellbeing.

Pain, Numbness, or Tingling

The treatment of issues in extremities, such as the hands, feet, hips, and shoulders, has always been a major part of chiropractic care. A chiropractor will attempt to ease pressure on the affected nerves, preventing the need for surgery or strong medications.

Stress Relief

A professional chiropractic examination will assess the health of your nervous system to find out what’s wrong, and your chiropractor will subsequently attempt to restore your body’s balance. Many patients report reduced stress levels and increased energy after achieving proper spinal health.

What is great about getting treatment from chiropractors is that they reduce the need for pain medications and even prevent surgery.

When choosing a chiropractor, make sure you have talked to him in detail about your expectations and ask about anything that worries you or things you would like to know more about. Most chiropractors are popular for people who is suffering from sports injuries or those who are trying to recover from an accident. In fact, six to 12 percent of the American population sees a chiropractor each year! People have been slowly going back to holistic treatments or the natural method of healing.

Considering Liposuction

I need to be honest. If I can have an easy way out of losing weight, I’d take it. I want a weight loss method that’s easy, fast, effective and long-lasting. It sounds like such a tall order, right? Especially when I want “easy” and “fast” with the way I want to lose weight. My friends and I were discussing our weight struggles and I told them that if I had the money (and I know the doctor/surgeon performing), I would do liposuction CT in a heartbeat. I come from a medical background so I know that it is 1) safe and 2) effective.

Liposuction isn’t as scary as it sounds or looks in the pictures you might have seen on the Internet. Based from what I am familiar with, the procedure takes less than a day (and the whole “liposuction” an hour or so). Of course you need to be prepared for surgery and then recover from it – that’s what makes it seem long. After all, it is a surgery – you need to be put under anesthesia.

What happens is the surgeon marks areas of fat where he will insert a cannula, a think sucking tube. When you are asleep, he inserts it just under the skin (in the layers of fat, literally) and he sucks the fat out using a vacuum attached to the other end of the cannula. When the fat gets sucked out, the cells or adipose tissues are destroyed. This is why liposuction centers claims that the results are permanent. When the tissues or cells holding fat are no longer there, where will the fat go and be deposited the next time you eat? There is a disclaimer though. If you had liposuction done on your tummy, for example, your tummy won’t get big anymore but fats might migrate to untreated sections like your arms or thighs. The key here is to make sure you moderate what you eat after the liposuction.

I have seen one who recovered from liposuction. She had gauze pads on incision sites with pressure wraps – she had one done in her upper arms. Recovery depends on you. Your incision sites will leak of fats, water and a bit blood but it is manageable and usually gone in less than a week. You need to have wraps for more than a week though to allow your skin to stick to your visceral linings again (Remember the layer of fat has been removed and destroyed).

If you want to take fat off your body instantly and permanently, the procedure is an option. Take note that most surgeons don’t do the liposuction unless you are about a certain percentage overweight first, so try to lose first before going under the knife.

Conzace: Helping You Achieve Heavy Duty Immunity

I have been sick more often in this year alone than all the other times I have been sick for the past five years. Every month, for at least a week, I will always somehow catch a bug and it will keep me down, even if I double my dose of Vitamin C. I have asked my doctor what else I can take to increase my immunity because as mother of two kids who works at home, I cannot afford to get sick. My doctor told me it’s time for me to consider taking vitamin supplements.

White Blood Cells is the Key to Immunity

I really don’t take vitamins. I am quite on the heavy side and I have always presumed that I don’t need them. My doctor explained to me that taking Vitamin C would not be enough as it only develops or matures white blood cells. If the white blood cells, our body’s number one line of defense against sickness, are low, Vitamin C would not help that much. You usually get low white blood cell counts when you fighting an infection or are stressed. Similar to a battlefield, your white blood cells go to “war” against infection or bacteria, thus if your body is not that strong to begin with, your white blood cells will eventually “lose” the battle and many of them will “die”.

The secret to strong immunity is in our white blood cells

Did you know that our bodies can only absorb up to 200mg of Vitamin C per day? Any excess will get flushed together with out urine. For us to be fully equipped to fight viral infections and sickness, we need to make sure we have stronger white blood cells. White blood cells is the secret to heavy duty immunity.

Neuromuscular Dentistry for resolution of temporomandibular joint disorder

Dental services provide the client the means to maintain good oral health through maintenance and preventive care, provide accurate diagnosis of conditions as manifested by current signs and symptoms, and implement dental procedures for the resolutions of problems related to the gums and teeth.

What is Neuromuscular dentistry?

A sub specialty called Neuromuscular dentistry deals with the practice of maintaining good condition of the jaw, gums, teeth and all the soft and hard tissues that are found in the orofacial area. This includes the muscles, nerves, the jaw bone and its articulations (joints). One of the most common conditions encountered by neuromuscular dentists is misalignment of the jaw at its joints with the skull, called temporomandibular joint disorder (TMD or TMJ). This condition may lead to pain in the neck and jaw, severe headache, ear ringing and tinnitus and even insomnia.

Temporomandibular joint disorder

Temporomandibular joint disorder (TMD) manifests often as chronic jaw pain. When jaw pain persists despite medications and other interventions designed to eliminate pain, the problem may originate from the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) already. Pain relief would not be able to alleviate the symptoms, since TMD is primarily mechanical in nature. A neuromuscular dental practitioner with adequate experience in TMD will be able to assess, diagnose, and treat the symptoms more effectively.

Only a proper re-alignment of the jaw position, combined with adequate conditioning of the muscles of mastication (chewing) that are attached to the jaw and facial and skull bones, assure complete resolution of TMJ disorders. A TMJ practitioner routinely provides relief to clients and makes the simple activities of daily life such as speech and eating, more manageable and less painful. With the jaw positioned optimally, every jaw movement is once gain again painless.

State of the Art Equipment  for Neuromuscular Conditions

Treatment of neuromuscular conditions that affect the jaw and mouth often requires appliances. For example, in the treatment of temporomandibular joint disorders, a TENS machine is prescribed by the specialist. TENS stands for transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation, which is designed to relieve pain and muscle spasm. A TENS unit releases pulses of low frequency energy that relaxes muscles with its massaging effect, stimulates endorphins in the nervous system to relieve pain, and facilitates increased  blood flow, which clears the body of metabolites and other waste products.

Mouth guards that are used to stabilize the bite, as well as jaw splints that are used to solve the problem of jaw clenching and grinding, are also available. All these innovative products paired with the able hands of specialists, is making the neuromuscular dentistry specialty one of the most technologically advanced of all.

Supportive Activities to Promote Neuromuscular Dental Health

Certain activities must be done as part of the daily routine of the patient.  Some of these are:

  • Maintain good standing and sitting posture all throughout the day, focusing on the alignment of the neck with respect to the body.
  • Avoid eating foods that are difficult to chew.
  • Avoid using the telephone with the crook of the neck.
  • Support the jaw when yawning; limit jaw movement whenever possible.

These activities fully complement the professional intervention provided by .
