Chiropractic - What does it mean?

Good Balance produces Good Function.

Chiropractic - What does it mean?

If we accept the premise that all function in the body is in some way regulated or influenced through the brain, we have to come to the conclusion that there is no dysfunction in the body without a corresponding dysfunction in the nervous system. There can be no postural or other musculo-skeletal imbalance without a neurological imbalance. For every occurrence of discomfort or dysfunction in the body there is an imbalance in activity and control at the level of brain. The conclusion above only becomes completely valid after you understand neuron theory , because if the communication between brain and body was a one way street, either the body or the brain could get damaged or fail independent of the other. However, once you realize...Read More

Get plugged-in with Chiropractic

Those that know me - Know I love this analogy. Chiropractic just makes sense.

Get plugged-in with Chiropractic

Brains are a lot like computers processing trillions of bits of information going to and coming from the body. The spinal chord inside the spine is like a USB cable that carries the information. Good health and wellness depends on a free flowing of information between brain and body. This is the specialty of a Doctor of Chiropractic.

BE The Change You Wish To See In The World

"About one percent of all of our cells die and are replaced every day, meaning that at the cellular level we have new bodies about every three months. Thus, we are always participating in our own self-creation. And how we perceive daily life—with appreciation, gratitude and joy, or irritation, upset and negativity— literally shapes us into who we are tomorrow. This is how we have the power to grow a peaceful generation and cultivate a peaceful world." -Marcy Axness, Ph.D.

Correct Subluxations With Chiropractic

You can take a stone out of your shoe - or you can wear 5 pairs of socks and cover up the pain. Which makes more sense?

Correct Subluxations With Chiropractic

A vertebral subluxation refers to a spinal bone that has become misaligned. Pressure applied to nerves because of a subluxation can affect the proper function of all the organs in your body, and can lead to pain, weakness, and numbness.

Chiropractic adjustments may take stress off surrounding tissues - muscles, tendons,... and ligaments - to relieve back pain and restore normal functioning. Not only that, chiropractic adjustments can improve your overall health and wellness.

Big Rocks Have To Be First!!!


A LESSON TO REMEMBER




One day, an expert in time management was speaking to a group of business students and, to drive home a point, used an illustration those students will never forget. As he stood in front of the group of high-powered overachievers he said, "Okay, time for a quiz" and he pulled out a one-gallon, mason jar and set it on the table in front of him. He also produced about a dozen fist-sized rocks and carefully placed them, one at a time, into the jar. When the
jar was filled to the top and no more rocks would fit inside, he asked, "Is this jar full?"

Everyone in the class yelled, "Yes."

The time management expert replied, "Really?"

He reached under the table and pulled out a bucket of gravel. He dumped some gravel in and shook the jar causing pieces of gravel to work themselves down into the spaces between the big rocks. He then asked the group once more,
"Is the jar full?" By this time the class was on to him.

"Probably not," one of them answered.

"Good!" he replied. He reached under the table and brought out a bucket of sand. He started dumping the sand in the jar and it went into all of the spaces left between the rocks and the gravel. Once more he asked the question, "Is this jar full?"

"No!" the class shouted.

Once again he said, "Good." Then he grabbed a pitcher of water and began to pour it in until the jar was filled to the brim.

Then he looked at the class and asked, "What is the point of this illustration?"

One eager beaver raised his hand and said, "The point is, no matter how full your schedule is, if you try really hard you can always fit some more things in it!"

"No," the speaker replied, "that's not the point. The truth this illustration teaches us is: If you don't put the big rocks in first, you'll never get them in at all.

What are the 'big rocks' in your life -- time with your loved ones, your faith, your education, your dreams, a worthy cause, teaching or mentoring others?

Remember to put these BIG ROCKS in first or you'll never get them in at all."

So, tonight, or in the morning, when you are reflecting on this short story, ask yourself this question: What are the 'big rocks' in my life?

Then, put those in your jar first.

P.S.  I searched on the web for a royalty free image of some rocks but could not find what I wanted  -
So I took a picture of these on my deck.  Stole them from the border around the flowers in the back
near the deck.  Feel free to use the picture of the big rocks if you re-post.... No royalties expected  lol.

Actual Footage of a Live Auto Crash – A Tale of Two Crashes


Many people are confused as to how it is possible for a person to be injured in a “Low Speed Rear Impact Crash” The above video explains very well the physics of just how the injury can happen.

Another concept that is very easily understood is called “Plastic Deformation”. This is the idea when there is a crash, the force of the crash follows through the vehicle until it dissipates. We all have seen horrific 150 mph NASCAR crashes where he car is in a crash and rolls over several times with parts of the car flying off of it every split second. With each piece that flies off of the car, the force is directed away from the occupant.

Unfortunately, the cars we drive in have bumpers that are meant to reduce the damage to our vehicles, but they actually increase the force to the occupants in the cars. Also, air bags,and seat belt unquestionably save lives by preventing occupants form being ejected from their cars, but they also increase the number of whiplash type injuries associated with car accident.

Obviously, if you have any questions or would like to make and appointment to talk with us about a car accident, you can find our contact information at  www.sheelychiro.com   If you think you are too far from our practice (People drive a long ways sometimes) , I would suggest that you contact a member doctor of the American Chiropractic Association.

Why all the Fuss about the 2012 New Year Thing?

Well, maybe it is an obvious answer, but then again maybe for some it is not.  The truth is - MOST people are in a mindset that they are going to try one last time to make their lives a little bit - or even allot better.

They know that there is power in joining a crowd to change.  I mean gosh, when the world itself is starting over - it is a bit easier to join in.  We know what is coming - winter , spring, summer and fall and we know what order they come in.  SO, it makes a bit of sense that we think we might be able to do it a little better on another run though.

So, here we are, when millions of people looking for something better in our lives.  looking to see if THIS is the year that they really get things done better this time.  We human beings are quite an interesting race... there is a part of us that  always believes that something better can happen - and THAT is the MAIN reason it does happen.   Because we are LOOKING for some thing good.

The nice thing about being around the New Year time is that most smart businesses KNOW we are looking for something better - and THAT is why we see so many offers to help us do better, feel  better, be better.

And sometimes, the New Year Special Offers are things that we have said that we wanted to do in the past but just never got around to it. I know this to be true because to me  as a Chiropractic Physician,  the five most dangerous words are:  "Maybe - It - Will - Go - Away!"

I know that a lot of people tend to put off the very things that they really should be doing. I have an increasing number of people that are not waiting until they have pain in their neck or back before coming to see me.  Why? - because people are understanding that if they have a history of back problems - it just makes more sense to get it checked before the "BIG FLAREUP"."

I am very similar to a dentist -  a dentist can find a cavity  - even if it is not hurting.  And any good dentist will tell you that the time to get a cavity fixed is NOT when you are having excruciating pain.   Better to do it before it gets to the nerve. So - many businesses are putting out offers of things that they KNOW people have said that they want in their life - ans a special offer might just be the sort of incentive that might bring someone in that would not use the service at any other time.

So,  I guess I have to "join the crowd" in that I have an "offer" that also fit the time of the year.  Lots of people want to loose weight, get fit, be healthier, start exercising, stop hurting, and start living and being the best they can be.

Many times, I help people do what they know they should do but will not do until they come to see me.

A Good Reason to See a Chiropractor First


Chiropractic Physicians very frequently deal with patients that have been hurt on the job. They focus on eliminating the cause of the pain and attempting to correct the source of the problem.  Chiropractic Physicians know that keeping a patient moving and active is the fastest road to recovery.  Total Bed Rest is Totally Bad Advice to be perfectly honest. Doctors of Chiropractic have been able to get their patients back to work faster than other methods, have higher satisfaction rates than other practitioners, love their life work more, and based on the above study - be in the category that produces the least amount of disability one year after beginning treatment.  Need a Great Chiropractic Physician?  Go to www.chirovoice.org and look for a doctor that is a member of the American Chiropractic Association and their own state association or ask your medical doctor or your friends and family for a recommendation..
