Why Mother’s Need Chiropractic Care!

Posted on May 12, 2013 by Dr. Kelly Tolle

What better way for me to share in the joy of Mother’s Day than to share the reasons why mother’s should be receiving regular chiropractic care!

Mother’s are special, giving tirelessly of themselves while putting their own health and wellness on the back burner. This certainly does not do a family good when the mother ends up sick or hurt. So let me list the top 3 reasons Mom’s need chiropractic care:

  1. Being pregnant and giving birth can be a traumatic experience for a women’s body! The extra weight during pregnancy, the imbalance of the pregnant posture, the pelvis expanding during delivery, all contribute to how the post pregnancy’s body will recover.
  2. An infant and growing baby puts alot of stress and strain on your body. From holding and nursing an infant to picking up a two year old to put into the crib, being a mother is a full time workout. I tell all my mom patients to watch their body mechanics when holding their baby! A one sided baby on a hip can create some major back pain over a two year time.
  3. Chiropractic care is proven to help boost the immune system! What mother would not love to have an amazingly strong immune system? Being a mom is stressful and has periods of sleep deprivation which both weaken the immune system. Chiropractic care can fight that.

I love taking care of my mom patients – no other person can relate to the stresses and inexplicable joys of being a mother than another mother.

Remember your mother today…she is special!

Chiropractic…naturally

Posted on February 25, 2013 by Dr. Kelly Tolle

th

There’s more to chiropractic than the relief of headaches and back pain!  Our primary focus is the integrity of your nervous system, which controls and regulates every cell and tissue of your body.  The moving bones of the spinal column can impair this vital communication link between your brain and your body.  We help improve the function and structure of your spine, reducing nervous system compromise.  The result?  Even non-spinal health related problems can show improvement.  Without drugs or surgery.  Regardless of age.

For over a century.  Naturally.

Come see me to start feeling better, Dr Kelly

Why do I have Low Back Pain?

Posted on January 31, 2013 by Dr. Kelly Tolle

The majority of back pain patients have not experienced any trauma, accidents or major injuries prior to the onset of their problem. The cause of most back pain is the cumulative affect of improper sitting posture, poor work habits, incorrect lifting, lack of proper exercise and other lifestyle-related factors. All of these factors cause stress and imbalances on the spine and eventually pain. This is why people often injure their back by just bending over to pick up a piece of paper. The spine was already compromised and just the simple act of bending was enough to set off the problem. When this occurs, the surrounding back muscles go into spasm to protect the stressed or injured tissues of the back.

Chiropractic care works on correcting misaligned or out of place vertebrae and can remove the pressure placed on the nerve endings that line the surface of the joint and course through the space between the joints, reducing pain and improving flexibility and function. Isn’t it time you tried chiropractic care for you and your family?

Is Chiropractic Care Safe for Children?

Chiropractic care is incredibly safe for children! Much safer than a pain killer or cough syrup!

For children, chiropractors use natural, gentle and effective techniques to ensure that your child is able to move properly right from the big toe to the top of their cranium! If there is a problem the treatment procedures are icredibly safe and gentle – often only fingertip pressure is required!

Let us help your child’s body function properly…today!

Chiropractic Care and Gymnastics

Posted on November 14, 2012 by Dr. Kelly Tolle

Even the normal falls and bumps that all children experience can result in a misalignment of the spine.  Those who take gymnastics are even more prone to having this happen.  Regular gentle chiropractic adjustments can help take care of small misalignments before they become bigger problems.  An even and balanced spine will help their performance.

As the twig bends, so does the tree! Get your child adjusted today!

Enjoy Your Exercise!

Posted on October 1, 2012 by Dr. Kelly Tolle

After running in the Disney Tower of Terror 10 miler this past weekend, I promptly signed myself up for 2 upcoming half marathons.  My feet were still hurting and I was google-ing more runs!  Why is that?

The answer is simple:  I enjoy it!  Here are some ideas to make exercise something you actually want to do:

  1. Workout with a friend!
  2. Make it a habit
  3. Set goals
  4. Keep your workouts short and intense
  5. Change up your music list
  6. Make exercise your stress relief

What kind of exercise do you enjoy? If you find yourself dreading your workout time, then it’s time for a change! Get out there and get healthy!

Yours in Health, Dr. Kelly

Reduce your stress!

Posted on September 24, 2012 by Dr. Kelly Tolle

Stress is no fun and can wreak havoc on your body!  Here are some great ways to reduce your stress and get back to enjoying life:

  •  Eat properly and drink plenty of water. The body is made up of approximately 60% water.
  • Remember your nutritional supplements! Vitamin C stimulates the production and healthy function of white blood cells. Vitamin A is required for immune cell activation and survival. Vitamins A, C, and E help modulate brain/adrenal gland interaction and related stress responses. Copper, zinc, manganese, magnesium, vitamin C, vitamin E, and bioflavonoids are important as antioxidants to help neutralize damaging free radicals that form during stress
  • Keep your regular exercise routine. Exercise is a great way to alleviate stress.
  • Take a break every day. Whether it be reading a book, taking a nap, or meditating, a mere 20 minutes a day can make all the difference.
  • Make sure you get 6-7 hours of sleep every night. Your body repairs itself during this important time.
  • Get a massage! This is a great way to relax and take that well-deserved break.
  • Practice proper breathing technique. Breathing is great for reducing stress and anxiety. Simply breathe in through your nose and out through your mouth. Concentrate your thoughts on these actions to gain the full benefit.
  • See your chiropractor for a healthy spine and to improve nerve function. The chiropractic adjustment helps to relieve stress, decrease pain, improve function, and increase energy.

Take care of yourself, your body will thank you for it!

Yours in Health, Dr.Kelly

Do you know your ABC’s?

Posted on September 10, 2012 by Dr. Kelly Tolle

An awesome friend of mine just lost her friend to melanoma this past week.  She was a vivacious young woman in her 30’s with young children and a supportive husband.  A loss like this reminds me to make time to take care of myself and get a skin check.  After my first appointment and 7 (!) biopsies, I have to go back today for further removal of 2 dysplastic moles.  This is not fun but so important. Summers growing up lobstering in the Keyes with my Polish skin have certainly caught up with me.  What about you?  Do you know your ABC’s of Skin Cancer?

A –  Asymmetric:  If you draw a line through this mole, the two halves will not match.

B – Border:  The borders of an early melanoma tend to be uneven. The edges may be scalloped or notched.

C – Color:  Having a variety of colors is another warning signal. A number of different shades of brown, tan or black could appear. A melanoma may also become red, blue or some other color.

D – Diameter:  Melanomas usually are larger in diameter than the size of the eraser on your pencil (1/4 inch or 6 mm), but they may sometimes be smaller when first detected.

E – Evolving:  Any change — in size, shape, color, elevation, or another trait, or any new symptom such as bleeding, itching or crusting — points to danger.
