Hey Everybody, Again, updating this blog seems to escape our attention for the most part...you know, life happens or even better...life is happening. We are maintaining our current office schedules as indicated in a previous blog entry. These days things seem to be revolving around our family life - as it should - and secondarily our professional life. As a side note: we also are ongoingly attempting to assist our 3 and a half year old Olde English Bulldogge who has had many health challenges including what we've identified is a "Leaky Gut Syndrome" plus a Candida Albicans issue. We resorted to a very powerful medication for her in the recent past which worked very well initially but has since stopped working and the symptoms have returned. The side effects of this medication have not been well documented or even well researched at this point but we are experiencing first hand what they are. We are trying to deal with this ourselves on a nutritional basis but a solution to these problems seems quite elusive at the moment. Our office 'family' continues to grow and typically experiences some quieter times but as a whole we are happy helping those new patients that join us and for those who continue their journey with us on an ongoing basis. Marci continues to assist her clients with basic massage therapy and cranial-sacral therapy. ( For anyone who has not had the experience of cranial-sacral therapy I would encourage you to try it. On numerous occasions I have had excellent immediate results from a session of this type of 'work'. I personally usually fall asleep during a session and wake up feeling rested and relieved from whatever was ailing me at the time...for me it's typically from a bump on the head while I'm in the crawlspace of our home or a strain from too much snow shovelling, things like that.) As for myself I continue to provide care for my patients in the form of chiropractic adjustments delivered through Activator Methods and Impulse - Neuromechanical Technique protocols. For those who adopt chiropractic care as a consistent part of their health care practices we find these two methods to be very helpful. Another side note, I have just completed my St John Ambulance First Aid/CPR/AED certification. This reminds me that all of our household, office, and vehicle first aid kits should be updated and/or replaced to bring them to current standards. I highly recommend this course whether you plan to act as a potential 'first aider' or not. Tons of great information for what life could potentially present. Well, having said all of this...time to get back to work and assist those that are coming into the office this afternoon...including two new patients, the first being a month old baby and the other a 87 years young senior! Looking forward to both. John.
