The Ultimate Back Stretch

 

The Ultimate Back Stretch


 

Do you suffer with back pain? I did at 16 and my dad and brother suffer with chronic low back pain. Nearly 65 million Americans report a recent episode of back pain.[1]

It’s a costly illness at 12 billion dollars per year and can be disabling.[2]

A common cause is prolonged sitting. A simple remedy is staying active, standing more, and stretching. [3] Getting exercise (at least three times a week) and moving daily is critical. Remember MOTION is LOTION (it lubricates the body).

  Can Fragrances (e.g. perfumes, colognes, air fresheners)  Make YOU SICK & FAT? Did you know the scent within many perfumes and colognes along with plug-ins (and many other household and beauty products have chemical fragrances or parfums in their ingredients i.e., Febreze, Lysol, Clorox Bleach, Dawn, Tide, Irish Spring, Fabuloso etc) which contain many harmful chemicals. According to the Environmental Working Group (EWG.org), many of the chemicals in these synthetic fragrances contain phthalates, which can disrupt hormones, worsen asthma, allergies, lead to headaches, fatigue, weight gain (as these chemicals get stored in the fat), weaken the immune system, and even possibly cause cancer. What to do?   Use natural products.  For not much more money, you can get products from Seventh Generation (SeventhGeneration.com), Ecos (ecos.com) etc. that don’t contain many of these harmful chemicals. These ecofriendly products can smell nice and be just as effective at eliminati

How to Relieve Pain Long Term & Naturally

  How to Relieve Pain Long Term & Naturally Our body is connected (as you know!), but when we see a traditional doc, they may only focus on the specific body part for which you are having a problem. For example, when I saw my neurosurgeon for neck pain, they only looked at my neck. I have a history of many ankle sprains. Once I addressed strengthening my ankles, which I never thought to do because they didn't hurt, my neck pain improved. The chiropractor explained my "weak ankles likely turned in my hips and shoulders, which likely affected my neck". Once I strengthened my ankles and stretched my hips and shoulders more, my neck pain improved (without the surgery). I've seen many patients with knee pain where the cause of the their pain was related to tight hips or problems with their feet (which they told me was never addressed before). The great part is they are improving and feeling better and are not taking their pain medicines any longer (e.g. T
