Don't just cover up joint pain, address it from the source!


Joint Vibrance




Joint Vibrance provides cartilage-building cells called chondrocytes with the proper nutrients necessary for construction of new cartilage and synthesis of hyaluronic acid. The entire formula is truly remarkable.

Before we are born, chondrocytes work rapidly to build protection into our developing skeletons. Then we are born, grow, and age. The older we become, the slower chondrocytes work.

As chondrocyte activity flags over time, they eventually fail to adequately compensate for the daily wear and tear placed on joints by an active lifestyle. As a result, nearly everyone has some degree of cartilage breakdown by the age of 32 to 35. For centuries it was thought that the gradual deterioration made joint pain and loss of mobility an inevitable fact of aging.






Hyaluronic acid (HA) is produced by keratinocytes and is a member of a large family of glycosaminoglycans, the main components of the extracellular matrix. It is abundant in tissues and fluids, with the highest concentrations in synovial fluid, vitreous humor and skin. HA helps to support joint integrity and provides supplemental support for skin health.

It is almost Turkey Day and I wanted to share this heathy recipe with you. When purchasing a turkey the best turkey would be organic and hormone free.
Herb Roasted Turkey Recipe ingredient
1 11 lbs. whole pastured free range turkey
1 teaspoon dried oregano 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
1 teaspoon thyme
1 teaspoon black pepper
1 teaspoon salt
1 large onion – quartered
1 head garlic – cut into 2 pieces
1 medium size lemon- quartered
Coconut oil, melted (as needed)

Preheat oven to 325 F degrees. In a small bowl mix the oregano, rosemary, thyme, black pepper and salt. Remove the gizzards and neck from the completely thawed turkey. Place the cut garlic, onion, and lemon inside the turkey. Using your finger gently loosen the skin of the turkey and rub the spice mixture underneath the skin of the turkey breast and thigh. Do it very gently to avoid breaking the skin. Put the turkey on the middle oven rack. Place a pan underneath turkey on the rack below to catch the drippings. Roast for 3 hours. The turkey is done when an instant read thermometer reads registers 165 degree when it is inserted to the thickest part of the thigh. Melt coconut oil and brush all over the turkey and let rest for at least 10 minutes before carving. Enjoy. Happy Turkey Day!!!

Chiropractic in the media

I’m  sure that many of you have seen chiropractic being discussed in the media lately. Tomorrow on Dr. Oz he will be discussing the safety of chiropractic adjustments along with a panel of medical experts. This all comes about after the unfortunate death of mode Katie May who suffered a trauma to her neck and after suffering the trauma to her neck she sought care from her chiropractor. Below is some basic information on the type of condition she had and how chiropractic has been proven time and time again to be completely safe and effective.

  
  • Arterial dissection of the cervical (neck) arteries is a very rare condition occurring in 2-3 persons per 100,000 population per year. As this condition often produces neck pain and headaches, many times individuals will consult with their health care providers for advice or treatment in response to the discomfort.​​
  • Whether a person consults a medical doctor or doctor of chiropractic, stroke can follow at an equal rate regardless of the type of provider. Epidemiologic studies over many years with millions of patients do not reveal any greater association of stroke for persons under chiropractic care compared with persons under medical care.
  • In February 2016, a team of neurosurgeons at the University of Pennsylvania Hershey Medical Center published research concluding, “There is no convincing evidence to support a causal link between chiropractic manipulation and cervical artery dissection (CAD).”
  • Chiropractic manipulation has shown to be safe, effective treatment for neck, mid back and lower back pain. A comprehensive review of scientific evidence noted that there is as much evidence supporting chiropractic care as for other treatments such as prescription and non-prescription drugs and surgery.


The Journal of American Medical Association now recommends Chiropractic as a first means of treating low back pain.

Can Chiropractic Treat a Pinched Nerve?
Pinched nerve is also called compressed nerve. It is the pressure put on a nerve root by the surrounding tissues such as bones, ligaments and tendons. A pinched nerve most frequently occurs in the lower spine, the wrist and neck. Other parts of the body can also have pinched nerves.
Causes and Symptoms
The causes of the compressed nerve root vary from a herniated disc to arthritic changes. A herniated disc can result after an injury such as a sport injury. Arthritis is usually age-related changes which occur mainly in the joints and the resulting bone spurs can entrap a nerve. There are also occupational injuries which result from repetitive stress placed on extremities. The compression causes the swelling of the nerve and this disrupts the normal functioning of the nerve.
Most frequently reported symptoms are:
  • Pins and needle sensations in the affected area radiating to adjoining areas
  • Numbness
  • Pain of varying intensity
  • Weakness in the muscles
There are diagnostic tests to confirm a pinched nerve and they include nerve conduction study, electromyography and magnetic resonance imaging MRI.
Chiropractic has been proven to relieve the pain cause by a pinched nerve using a non-invasive, safe and effective treatment program.
Find Relief Through Chiropractic Care
Be aware that pain relief and improvement in the inflammation of an injured limb oftentimes does not address the root of the problem which made you susceptible to the injury in the first place. Temporary relief, recurrent pain and swelling are the body’s signal that the problem still exists.
It is time to see a chiropractor for adjustments when ice and rest have not resolved the pain and discomfort. Also, if there is relief and then the pain re-occurs once regular activity or training are resumed, then you need to see a chiropractor without delay.
In order to rule out the possibility of other similar orthopedic problems, x-rays, scans and imaging (MRI) are good diagnostic tools.
The chiropractor relieves the pain in the legs by relieving the pressure that compresses the nerve root. A non-invasive therapy used by the chiropractor is the manipulation of the pelvis. Overweight individuals should try to lose the extra pounds as this brings relief from the leg pain and discomfort.
Other useful therapies are:
  • Postural retraining
  • Acupuncture and acupressure
  • Yoga
  • Aromatherapy
  • Color Therapy
  • Weight management program
  • Herbal Therapy
For severe nerve compression, there are non-surgical chiropractic solutions but some cases may require a surgical solution to release the entrapped nerve.
We Know Your Pain
Chiropractic is based on the fact that the body can heal itself naturally. When the nervous system is at its peak performance, the body can resist disease. Thus, chiropractic care focuses on improving the function of the nervous system. This has a positive impact on many health conditions like a pinched nerve.
As your chiropractor, we know how a pinched nerve can cause pain and what causes the pain. We can stop the pain and you will find relief. What we offer is a safe, drug-free treatment approach.
We offer you better health using the natural approach. And it has been proven to be effective, too.
