New Chiropractic Soft Tissue Technique StopsMigraines In Minutes in Many Patients!Snow Shoveling Safety: Chiropractic Care & SpinalPelvic Stabilizers Can Help

A new procedure that often eliminates migraines and other headaches in minutes has been developed by Stephen Kaufman, D.C. Many severe headaches arise from excess tension of the suboccipital muscles, leading to involvement of vascular and neurological structures. A simple method has been devised to gently disengage the occiput from the atlas, allowing these muscles to instantly regain normal tone, withoutmanipulation. In a large number of cases repeated treatment often reduces or eliminates recurrence of the headache.

Nordic Naturals Offers Cod Liver Oil Solutions in Response to Recent Vitamin A and Vitamin D Controversy

In response to the commentary entitled Cod Liver Oil, Vitamin A Toxicity, Frequent Respiratory Infections, and the Vitamin D Deficiency Epidemic published on November 11^th by 16 well known supplement experts, Nordic Naturals announced that its cod liver oil products pose no threat or compromise to consumers and actually offer healthy omega fatty acid solutions that are low in natural Vitamin A. According to Karin Yien, MD, Nordic Naturals Chief Medical Advisor, “The issue that is cited by this group is based on the fact that almost all cod liver oil in the market is being supplemented with synthetic or natural Vitamin A, standardized to certain levels, which is why it is assumed that all cod liver oil has high levels of Vitamin A. This is not true for the Nordic Naturals brand. We have always had low, healthy levels of natural Vitamin A in our cod liver oil; consequently, we do not add Vitamin A to any of our cod liver oil products.

“Since we have never added synthetic vitamins to our oils, consumers have felt confident in our brand delivering the desired results without the potential of ingesting too much Vitamin A from this one source.”

Nordic Naturals is the leader in omega-3 fish oils and EFA blends with exceptional taste, freshness, and purity levels. The company has over 150 different fish oil products, including liquids, soft gels, and children’s chewables. For more information, call 1-800-662-2544 or visit www.nordicnaturals.com.

Preventing & Treating Obesity

with Chiropractic and Foot Levelers

According to the World Health Organization, more than 300 million people worldwide are overweight or obese. Your chiropractic care along with the custom-made support of Spinal Pelvic Stabilizers can work to prevent and treat the conditions associated with obesity.

Extra weight applies more pressure on the feet and can cause the arches to collapse, leading to joint and back pain. The deterioration of the joints, also known as osteoarthritis, is the leading cause for knee and hip replacement surgery. These conditions can be prevented with the help of Spinal Pelvic Stabilizers from Foot Levelers.

Spinal Pelvic Stabilizers support all three arches of the foot and help align the feet, ankles, knees, hips and spine to provide a balanced foundation for the body. Stabilizers are an important adjunct to your care because they help your chiropractic adjustments hold longer, helping prolong your patients’ wellness.

CoCurcumin™, the best bio-available curcumin

We at Ayush Herbs have found a unique way to increase the absorption of curcumin. We have found that by binding medium chain triglycerides (MCTs) to Curcumin, it enhances the bioavailability many folds as curcumin is very lipophilic. MCTs are a unique form of dietary fats that impart a wide range of positive health benefits. The absorption of calcium, magnesium and amino acids appears to be enhanced when the diet contains MCTs. MCTs are an excellent choice for malnutrition and are often added to parenteral formulas for intravenous feeding following surgery or during recovery from severe injuries, burns and infections. With all of this in mind we have formulated, CoCurcumin™, the best bio-available curcumin on the market. It works great for inflammation!

ACOM Health Announces 48-Month, Interest-Free Purchase Plan for RAPID Chiropractic Software; All Qualify

ACOM Health has introduced a program under which it will directly finance purchases of its RAPID Chiropractic Software on a 48-month, interest-free payment agreement, it was announced today by Sam Mikhail, division vice president of sales.

“Doctors need this technology to streamline their clinical operations and office processes as well as to qualify for the government reimbursements under the 2009 ARRA Economic Stimulus Plan,” Mikhail said. “At the same time, financing through banks and leasing companies that many doctors have used in the past is increasingly hard to get, even for doctors with great credit. In some cases it has dried up altogether. While some have, in the past, opted to pay cash, this program will allow such doctors to preserve their capital and spread their investment over 48 affordable easy payments.

 360 ORBITAL (Functional Rehab and Fitness Device)

A new technology, The Orbital 360, represents a shift from linear, vector-based rehab systems to a more functional form. It provides a constant, consistent, friction-based, adjustable, directionally responsive resistance technology through the 3 dimensional planes. It provides both linear and resistive rotational forces that engage the entire kinetic chain of the user. By design, this stimulates more of the specific neuromusculoskeletal patterns that the body moves through, naturally, as in daily activities or even sports-specific movements.

U.S. Chiropractic Directory Offers a New level of Access to the Chiropractic Profession, for the Public

The U.S. Chiropractic Directory and its founders, world leaders in chiropractic education and innovators’ in chiropractic and communication released to the public an aggressive strategy offering an unprecedented level of access to the chiropractic profession on January 1, 2010.

Since the announcement, the US Chiropractic Directory has become the #1 chiropractic entity on Facebook and Twitter leading the way for the future in bringing a positive chiropractic message daily to people worldwide.

In anticipation of an ever changing healthcare environment and breakthroughs in research, the U.S. Chiropractic Directory has made a commitment to only offer to the public peer reviewed or evidenced based research based articles in explaining the efficacy of chiropractic care. According to Dr. Mark Studin, the clinical advisor of the Us Chiropractic Directory, “No longer will rhetoric rule the day in explaining chiropractic. There is too much research in the scientific community giving evidence that what we do works and the public is entitled to that information.”

“We want to eradicate illness and ease suffering; therefore a patient needs to pick the best doctor for their condition, not someone who is simply the closest” adds Dr. Studin. We make it very easy for the public to get doctor’s credentials that will allow the patient to make the best choice for their specific problems; not all chiropractors are alike in training and experience. The public now has that choice.
