On The 10th Day of Christmas, My Chiropractor Recommended To Me- Life Changing Books and Cool Websites

Alternative health

I love to read…I read 4 or 5 books at once. I keep them on my nightstand and pick up whichever one I’m in the mood for prior going to sleep. About half of the books I read have to do with advancing my knowledge on my career- Complimentary and Alternative Medicine The other half are on personal development, business, success, family and parenting. I also like to read some leisure books about the old west or Native American lore or fly-fishing. Some of my books aren’t actually books but websites. I’ll let you in on some of my favorites. (Amazon.com can still get these to you by Christmas eve!) Here are some books that I’ve read lately that may be able to help you in these areas in your life- they’ve certainly made a big difference in my life. Complimentary and Alternative Medicine Nutrition: The Paleo Diet Cookbook- My way of eating. Why We Get Fat- This one hasn’t come out yet. It is by the most prolific researcher on nutrition in our era, Gary Taubes. It is the definitive truth about the science of how to lose weight and how how we get fat. The Primal Blueprint- My lifestyle. Nourishing Traditions-  Classic. The 6-Week Cure for the Middle Aged Middle- By one of my favorite MD’s, Dr. Michael Eades. Exercise The Metabolic Effect- A scientifically accurate way to exercise for health, fitness, weight loss and longevity. Core Performance and Athletes Performance- Two of my favorite athletic performance... Read More

On The 7th, 8th and 9th Days of Christmas, My Chiropractor Recommended to Me- Three of The Healthiest Fish You Can Eat

Alternative health

Here's one of my favorite mail-order resources. It's here that you can get some of the healthiest fish in the world. Not, one, but three of the healthiest fish you can eat. Omega-3 fatty acids from certain fish are one of the healthiest fats you can eat- for brain health and heart health as well as for the anti-inflammatory effects they provide. Three fish that have the most potent amounts of anti-aging omega-3's are; wild caught salmon, sardines, and mackerel. And you don't have to live in Alaska to get them. You can get them all shipped right to your doorway...fresh! Read More

On The 6th Day of Christmas, My Chiropractor Recommended To Me- Natural Remedies for Coughs

Alternative health

Because upper respiratory infections, coughs and colds are so prevalent in Colorado in the wintertime, I think this resource is a gem. I love things that are earthen and whole. Organic herbs and spices are truly blessings from God. One of the best (and little known), natural remedies for coughs and upper respiratory problems is an herb known as Tussilago farfara, or Coltsfoot. Read More

On The 5th Day of Christmas, My Chiropractor Recommended To Me- In With The Good and Out With The Bad

Alternative health / Fibromyalgia Treatment

I do comprehensive blood testing along with hair analysis for many of my chronic pain patients. I see high levels of toxicities in chronic pain cases nearly 100% of the time. Heck, I see toxicities in most everyone I test-myself included. I use this in fibromyalgia treatment. Read More

On The 4th Day of Christmas, My Chiropractor Recommended To Me- A Far Infrared Sauna

Alternative health

LUXSauana far infrared saunas, based in Lakewood, Colorado, produce 300-500% more toxin eliminating and health stimulating sweat than a hot rock sauna. I've had patients with chronic pain and fibromyalgia purchase them and love them for obvious reasons- detoxification, weight loss, decreased joint and muscle pain. Read More

Having Your Own "Health Care Policy"

Alternative health

I believe the effectiveness of alternative health care. I practice holistic chiropractic and complimentary and alternative medicine. I practice a version of sports chiropractic that I term ‘sports medicine without the medicine.’ Have you ever wondered why medicine is not considered ‘alternative’ and natural health care isn’t the standard? In all seriousness, I believe that  you should attempt to stay out of the ‘health care system.’ It’s a ‘sickness care system.’ Nothing about it gives you better health. Drugs given to a healthy person will make them sick. Have you ever seen what they feed people in the hospital? I mean… are you kidding me? You have people in there who are sick, diseased, dying, giving birth, infected, injured and you further insult their bodies with a bunch of dead food?

Information on Treating Ear Infections

Alternative health

Chiropractic and ear infections? Here’s a small collection of interesting research on ear infections (Otitis media). From a Postgraduate Medicine, Oct. ’87, review article by Moshe Frenkel, M.D., Acute Otitis Media; Does Therapy Alter its Course?: Eichenwald (1985): no bacterial cause can be identified in 1/3 of cases; spontaneous resolution in 60% within ten days of onset Fry (1958): 85% of those not receiving antibiotics had complete resolution; no differences in recurrence or hearing loss. Townsend (1980): study showed that a placebo-treated group had no greater incidence of recurrence, or of middle-ear effusion than an antibiotic-treated group. Van Buchem (1981):  children with symptomatic treatment alone did as well as those treated with antibiotics and/or myringotomy (ear tubes); no differences were noted in effectiveness of pain reduction, hearing levels, or incidence of complications. Van Buchem (1985):  in a large-scale study of 4,860 children, 90% recovered with “minimal” treatment (nose drops and analgesics) OTHER SOURCES: Dr. E. Cantekin did a study of amoxicillin treatment of otitis media and fund that it was not effective for secretory otitis media (fluid behind the eardrum.)  He also found that the antibiotics Pediazole and ceflaclor were not effective.  (JAMA, Dec.  1991) A number of recent studies have shown that for earaches, 2, 4, 5, and 7-day courses of treatment with antibiotics were just as effective as the usual 10-day course, when effective at all. (Schmidt, Beyond Antibiotics, 1993, p. 29) A 1974 study showed that children with acute otitis media receiving antibiotics within the first... Read More
