So we have quit shaking hands, no European kissing of the cheeks, and no hugs. We have resorted to waving or various signals. I have personally gone to Spock’s “Live long and prosper” gesture. Humans are meant to touch. Numerous studies have shown that hugging is beneficial for our health and our immune systems. According to [...]
Do you think that the gardens this year will be the most beautiful we have ever seen? Absolutely!! Many more people are out working in their yards this spring, and that is such a great thing! Working outside is one of the healthiest things you can do. But, it can make many of us sore, or [...]
Well, we are about to be freed from our isolation, and, like most things, it has positive and negative effects. In reality, all of us will be or already have been exposed to the virus. The important thing is to keep ourselves and our family’s immune systems as strong as possible. Research studies are showing that [...]
The news about COVID19 is non-stop. We are listening to and watching TV and getting lots of advice from lots of people. And, some of the advice we are receiving is great and some of it is terrible. It makes sense to wash our hands, (but hasn’t that always made sense)? It makes sense is to [...]

BUBONIC PLAGUE… BLACK DEATH Seriously, the way the news is going on and on about the Corona Virus you would think it is the end of the world as we know it. First, stay calm, because it is not as bad as it sounds in the news. The mortality rate of the corona virus is less [...]
My 1st Chiropractic Miracle - No Tubes in Ears Necessary! - Submitted by patient, Kathy Rausch I was introduced to chiropractic care completely by accident 34 years ago. At that time, I had a 3 year old son and I was working at a hospital full time nights as a nurses aide in Labor and Delivery and [...]
Did you know the first chiropractic adjustment wasn’t for back or neck pain but for deafness? I know, it sounds too strange to be true, as we all think of chiropractors as doctors who relieve us of back pain. There is so much more to it. The spine holds every nerve center in your body. Any [...]
About a year ago, I had a new patient who came into the office because of infertility. She had read some studies on how chiropractic can help resolve this issue.
