WELLNESS CONNECTION · MedicalStaying Well through Winter MonthsBy Steve Chopyak, D.C., ChiropractorSeptember 18, 2012 - 9:00AM![]() As a chiropractor, I view my responsibility to take care of you, assist with pain prevention, as well as help you get out of pain once you're in it, very seriously. Did you know that you can see some neck pain coming well before you feel it? Just by looking in the mirror? You don't need to be a psychic or use special glasses, but you do need to be honest with yourself. . . more Rated by 0 people: Better Performance Through Better Health:By Becky Leehey, Executive DirectorJune 29, 2012 - 12:00PM![]() The headlines tell the tale of our country’s poor health habits: “Obesity is on the rise.” “The U.S. leads developed countries in chronic disease.” “Weight loss shows and fad diets increase in popularity while Americans continue to gain weight.” Despite being confronted with these public reminders, many of your employees continue to start their day with a “power breakfast” of caffeine and energy drinks, followed by a high-calorie, high-fat lunch of fast food consumed at their desks. After working well past 5 p.m., many dine out on super-sized restaurant portions before logging back on to check “one more e-mail” prior to crashing into a fitful sleep. The only exercise might be walking to the vending machine for a late-afternoon sugar fix. . . more Rated by 0 people: Top 10 TestsApril 18, 2012 - 12:00PM![]() “We prescribe a more comprehensive blood panel because it allows us to determine whether the body is performing at its best possible level, or where it may be deficient in areas,” says Jonathan R. Cole, M.D., Medical Director at California Health & Longevity Institute and one of the internists that oversee physicals. “Optimal health is not merely the absence of disease.

According to Barbara Savin, Clinical Hypnotherapist at the Institute, “Each of the participants went through extensive medical intake and behavior modification recommendations in high-impact areas such as fitness and nutrition. However, we have found that with most obese individuals, there are emotional issues that have contributed to their weight-gain. Medical Hypnotherapy can help address these underlying emotions that block behavior changes leading to successful long-term weight-loss.” . . moreRated by 0 people:
