Monthly thoughts and personal insights seen from your chiropractor’s perspective.
I went skiing this past Friday. I was extremely excited as skiing is a passion of mine and it was the first time this season. The morning went all right; there was plenty of good snow and the sun actually came out for about 45 minutes. After lunch I went out and my legs just [...]
It’s spring again and after a third “honey do” weekend my muscles are sore and my whole body aches. We filled over 30 leaf bags, mulched, shoveled gravel, pruned, cleaned out and organized the garage, and got years of accumulated junk out on the street for clean-up. I can’t wait to get adjusted! This time [...]
I was at a conference this weekend. It was on the Jersey shore and the hotel was right on the beach. The blizzard was incredibly intense. The sound of the wind and the waves was so loud that it kept us all up through the night. It was incredibly thrilling to experience the power of [...]

Sue and I spent this weekend with a group of chiropractors at a “Leadership Camp”. It was a challenging, wonderful, and heart opening experience for us both. One of the best parts of the weekend for me was before it even started. We got to the site a day earlier. There was no television, computer, [...]

If your spine deteriorates from stress and trauma it will affect the health and function of your nervous system. This in turn will affect the [...]
I’m so thankful for our ability as humans to continually start anew. The healthier you are the greater your capabilities to recognize the amazing possibilities the world is presenting to you. Healthy choices (getting checked regularly for subluxations, eating well, and getting plenty of rest and exercise) will open you up to a whole new [...]
