Look at Those 6-Pack Abs!!!

 

...or not! Strengthen What You Have!!!

Many of us likely admire those who have "6 pack abs" or toned-up mid-sections, but most of us do not really want or need them.

However, if you have back pain, you may want to try for them. Sensibly, most of us in Chicago need only tone up what there is of us with the "6 pack" image in mind. Such toning and imagery may well help pain relief and prevention of future back pain.

That's where abdominal and core exercises come into play, and Chiropractic Care stands ready to be your partner. Strengthening and toning your core -- the muscles surrounding your mid-section -- helps support your spine thus helping to prevent re-injury. Keeping the spine stable with conditioned, strong abdominal muscles is an important part of upholding good posture and avoiding back injuries.

The bones of the spine make up the support frame of the back. Attached to this framework is a well-developed system of muscles and ligaments that, when strong, offer the strength and stability of the spine, arms, and legs. If the muscles and ligaments are weak, additional stress is placed on the spine increasing the likelihood of back injury.

At Chiropractic Care, we want you to be actively engaged in your spinal care treatment plan. Together, we can quicken your recovery and control spinal pain's influence on your lifestyle. We do not recommend the classic gym class sit-ups but rather a specific and controlled set of abdominal and core exercises to prevent back pain. Please only perform the exercises as instructed to do so. Our doctors and staff can demonstrate the proper exercises and you can also then see them on our website.

Chiropractic Care is in no doubt of your ability to strengthen your core once you set your mind to it!

Multivitamin Improves Memory and Immunity!

Formula One 

Although it is always best to get your nutrition from the food you eat, our busy lives do not always allow for us to do so. Even with a well-balanced diet, it is difficult to get all of our nutrients. Many diseases such as osteoporosis and diabetes are at least partially linked to improper nutrition.

There is growing evidence that getting enough calcium at a young age can help prevent osteoporosis. B vitamins have been shown to prevent birth defects and help with nervous system disease. Antioxidants have been shown to decrease inflammation which has been linked to numerous diseases including various cancers.

New research even suggests that proper nutrition may help keep your memory functioning. Researchers studied 56 elderly women who reported that they had some memory loss. These women took a multivitamin, mineral, herbal supplement for 16 weeks. The researchers found a heightened speed of reaction in spatial working memory. A similar study was done with sedentary men aged 50 to 74. There were similar findings to the women’s: an improvement in their memory.

We now offer Formula One which combines five formulae into one for ease of taking so many formulae. It delivers vitamins (including F, G, H, P), fat lowering agents, digestive enzymes to insure absorption, minerals, trace minerals, amino acids for protein metabolism, and special herbs (for immune system support, circulation, energy, digestion, nervous system, arthritis, allergy) and antioxidants.
