Fast 10

It’s almost January and that usually means New Years Resolutions.  A very high percentage of resolutions made are related to taking care of ourselves. 

Here are 10 quick tips that really work.   Follow these and you WILL be healthier.

1. Never ever ever skip breakfast.

2. If you eat dairy, choose 1% or lower in fat.

3. Sit down while you eat.  Chew your food slowly.

4. Drink alcohol only on weekends, if at all.

5. Switch from regular soda to diet, and pass on high sugar energy drinks.

6. Instead of regular potatoes, switch to sweet potatoes or yams.

7.  Switch to olive oil instead of butter on bread or when cooking.

8. Eat off a smaller plate.

9. Ask for salad dressing on the side.  Dip your fork in the dressing before picking up your bite.

10. While dining out, split your entrée or ask for 1/2 to be boxed up before serving.

Put us on your list……

Our to-do list is longer these days.  Be sure to put us on that list for better stress management.

• Most chiropractic adjustments take less than 20 minutes – it’s true.  You can be in and out in no time.  It doesn’t take too much out of your day to stop by our office and get a quick tune up.
• Often, massage therapy is combined with chiropractic adjustments to further reduce stress and speed injury recovery –That’s the best way we think.  Schedule a 30 min massage from your adjustment to receive maximum benefit of your visit.  Many insurance plans will cover a 30 min massage with your adjustment.
• Anxiety and stress are notorious for attacking the weak spots of the spine.-  True.  Especially this time of year.  The holidays are a wonderful time, but they do bring extra stress to our schedules, which usually ends up being harbored in your body…..somewhere.  We believe taking that extra time to drop by for a visit will help.  We can’t help with your shopping list, but we can help keep you in tip top shape. 

So put us on your list, we’d love to see you and help keep stress at bay during this holiday season.
