How to reduce allergy frustrations

 by Dr. Brent Lipke DC

With the decrease in air quality that comes with warmer weather many of us begin to experience the agony of dealing with allergies.

The sneezing and watery eyes occur when the immune system OVERreacts to an allergin, things like dust or  pollen, and produces too many neutralizing chemicals, called histamines, to counteract it.  Drugs called anti-histamines are often given, but long-term use may cause blood pressure or heart problems.

Chiropractic focuses on balancing the nerve system which CONTROLS the immune system, allowing it to function normally which handles the CAUSE of the allergic reaction.

How Chiropractic Care can help with ADHD

Discover the High Performing Athletes Secret Weapon

 By Dr. Brent Lipke DC

Did you know that over 80% of Olympic athletes competing at the  Olympics receive chiropractic care before they compete.

Many amateur and professional athletes wouldn’t dream of competing without first getting a chiropractic checkup including; Joe Montana, Evander Holyfield, Jose Canseco, Dan O’Brien, Arnold Schwartzenegger, and Tiger Woods.

These athletes have discovered the Chiropractic secret.  Research has shown that athletes under chiropractic care react 30% faster, are more coordinated, execute fine movements better and have improved accuracy and precision.

All this occurs because the nerve system in these athletes is kept free of stress and any injuries are corrected early before they can develop into a major problem in the future.

Chiropractic Care helping with Ear Infections

Suffer from TMJ? Chiropractic Care can help

By  Dr. Brent Lipke DC

 If you place your fingers in front of each ear and open your mouth you can feel movement in your jaw joint.  This is where your skull’s temporal bone attaches to your mandible or jaw bone, called the temporomandibular joint or TMJ.

When this joint is misaligned it is called TMJ syndrome.  Symptoms include an inability to fully open the mouth, clicking or popping when eating or talking and sometimes the jaw may even temporarily lock up. 

Causes include gum chewing, trauma to the head/jaw or neck, and dental work where the mouth is open for a prolonged period.

Chiropractic focuses on correcting the cause of the TMJ dysfunction by gently re-aligning the jaw itself using low-force techniques.

Is it safe to visit your Chiropractor?

Have you ever wondered if going to to chiropractor was safe or not?  Perhaps fear is stopping you from getting the chiropractic care you need.  Well here are the facts.

Chiropractic is the largest non-drug healing profession in the world today.  Nothing is put into your body and nothing is taken out, so the risk of a side effect is minimal.  In fact the New Zealand Commission of Inquiry concluded Chiropractic as a whole to be “remarkable safe”. 

Special LOW-FORCE techniques can be requested and are often used; for infants after difficult births, for children after slips or falls, for seniors, or people who are in severe pain and cannot tolerate a conventional adjustment.

How to keep from Shrinking as you Age

by Dr. Brent Lipke DC

Your spinal bones begin to deform, your discs swell then shrink, your ligaments, tendons and muscles harden and weaken. What is happening?  Your spine is degenerating!

Spinal degeneration, like tooth decay is often a painless process.

Along with spinal damage, your nerves, and internal organs can also be affected.  You have less ability to deal with the stresses of life, you lose energy, and you may even lose height.

Spinal stress often causes the spinal bones to misalign, irritating the surrounding nerves, bones, discs and ligaments causing them to degenerate prematurely.

The earlier it is identified, the greater the chance that Chiropractic can reduce, halt or even reverse spinal degeneration by improving spinal function and posture.

How to recover from Whiplash

By Dr. Brent Lipke DC

Whiplash is not a disease but a way to describe how an injury occurs.  It happens when the head and neck are suddenly thrown from one direction to another.  Most whiplash sufferers have misaligned spinal bones along with nerve, joint, and muscle damage. 

Once the patient’s condition has stabilized, any person with whiplash trauma should have a chiropractic examination to be certain that no spinal bones have become misaligned.  Nerve damage, arthritis and disc problems may all result from spinal misalignments that go unnoticed.

Special low-force adjustments can be done to correct any spinal misalignments, using pressure equal to that used on a touch tone phone.

To learn more about how a safe, gentle and scientific, Chiropractic adjustment could TRANSFORM your health contact your chiropractor.  If you are interested in a complimentary consultation, CALL  The Family Chiropractic Centre, 519-837-1234.

Suffering from Heartburn?

by Dr. Brent Lipke DC

Oh, this heartburn is killing me!  Have you ever wondered why you get heartburn now when you eat things like tomatoes or peppers but you didn’t get it before ?  Do you think the tomatoes changed, or did you ?

Heartburn is caused, not by too much acid, but by acid in the wrong place.  A muscle at the top of the stomach keeps the acid from splashing up into the esophagus which it is not protected by mucous.

 When a spinal misalignment in the mid-back occurs, it can choke the nerve supplying this muscle, allowing acid to reverse up the esophagus.  Instead of using medications to decrease the acid in your stomach, chiropractic removes pressure from this nerve, restoring function to this muscle, keeping the acid down where it belongs.
