If you would like to hear Dr. Amber McLelland and Dr. Bryan Natusch on the air more, or think it would be helpful, let us know too.

He was able to discuss the fact that chiropractic care is not just for people with back and neck pain, but for everyone with a spine and nerve system that wishes to have proper function of their body, improved healing and adaptation, better health, and to live long and live strong!  The age groups they work with are newborns all the way up through the elderly, with techniques that are comfortable and safe for each person.

They also talked about how important it is for people that feel fine to get a checkup because of the fact that 90% of the nerves in the body can’t be felt, and if there is interference or malfunctions in those areas, the only way to know is to have a chiropractic checkup.  These interferences can lead to decreased immune system response, low energy, problems focusing and cloudy thought, sensitivities and allergies, and organ problems like asthma, ear infections, digestive concerns, and much more.  On a physical level the same misalignments that cause interferences to the nerves also lead to faster degeneration of the bones and joints otherwise called arthritis, as well as being more prone to injuries.

Dru also had a question regarding sleep issues and how chiropractic may help with this.  Dr. Bryan mentioned that if there is subluxation or misalignment of the spine causing nerve intereferences in the body and brain, the body doesn’t clearly know when to shut down and sleep, or when to wake up and be active, but gets all jumbled and confused.  Dr. Bryan and Dr. Amber have seen many adults, children, and babies that note improved sleep habits when they are getting adjusted.

Even this infectious disease expert agrees that the so-called epidemic swine flu media hype has gotten way out of control. He’s saying that it’s “lost it’s virulence” and now “If you had to choose.. you should choose the “swine flu” over the seasonal flu” because it’s more mild. No talk of epidemic death imminent, or anything close to the sort.

And as they move on to the topic of the vaccine… he mentions a bunch reasons to avoid this vaccine at all costs. He notes extreme levels of adjuvants (or preservatives) like thimerosal (ethyl mercury), and many others. The mercury levels are 25,000 times the acceptable amount if it was in drinking water or foods, as well as serum (blood) levels 100 times the toxic level in humans! This causes problems in the body, especially to a certain group of people. The population of particular concern because of possible damage are children, pregnant women, people with mitochondrial disorders that are prone to autism with thimerosal vaccine exposure, people with neurological illnesses, chronic fatigue, and fibromyalgia.

Also of his concern, and ours as well, is the fact that these have been fast tracked through the developmental and testing phases to get them to the public as fast as humanly possible. Could this be because if they take too long, the supposed deadly swine flu pandemic will fizzle out even more, and people will recognize the excessive hype and fear promotion as over-reacting.. ultimately refusing to get the vaccine? That would be a very large loss of income for the pharmaceutical companies already making a pretty penny off of the governments ordering up billions of vaccines in the name of public safety.

In this video Dr. Kent Holtdorf says he will NOT give it to his kids, and we couldn’t agree more. Dr. Amber and I will not be choosing to get this vaccination, and we will not be having our baby vaccinated either.

If you have any concerns about your choices with vaccinations, please don’t hesitate to contact us to discuss the resources and scientific information useful to make a truly supported informed decision on whether to vaccinate or not.

If you choose to get vaccinated, I would highly recommend looking into detoxification before and after.. something along the lines of heavy metal detox. If you would like a recommendation on this, also just ask.

Ultimately the best thing you can do in any health challenge is to ask yourself: What are the things that I can do to improve and boost the health, vitality, and immune system integrity of my body. Chiropractic care plays an important and substantial role in restoring optimal function and immune system response to the body. If you’re ready for a checkup to determine if and how chiropractic can help you, call Jill at 603-298-7400 to schedule a checkup for your whole family.

“As for the three significant reflexes, vaccinated macaques learned more slowly to:

1. turn their head in response to a brush on the cheek (the root reflex)
2. open their mouth in response to a brush on the forehead (the snout reflex)
3. suck on a nipple placed in their mouth (the suck reflex).”

If you have children that already show concerns in these departments.. seriously consider the application and impact of further vaccines. If you are expecting a newborn at some point.. do your research, ask questions, look around… you have options that are legal and backed with sound science to drastically alter or avoid altogether the current “recommended” vaccine schedule.

Unfortunately, we’re seeing more and more families that are having developmental delays with their children, and many that are having difficulty breastfeeding.. ultimately resulting in formula feeding through a bottle out of frustration and anger that their baby is just not good at breastfeeding. This fallout can start a lifelong impact of immune, digestive, nutritional, and developmental concerns.

The question is.. how many vaccines are given or recommended in combinations, or in cocktails where these results may be drastically more severe?

Some of these delays and reflexes can be improved upon with chiropractic care, which is found to also remove any neurological interferences restricting the full expression of these reflexes, but this study brings a big question: Would the responses to adjustments and other care options like PT and OT be drastically improved if internal neuro-toxicity from vaccination was not playing a part?

Above quote from the ridiculously extensive and very detailed review of this article on www.ageofautism.com
If you have any interest in this topic I suggest you read this review to understand how in depth this study was done… simply fantastic.

Basic Recipe for 2 people:  ALL LOCAL ORGANIC IS BEST & HEALTHIEST!

• 1 avocado for healthy fats and cholesterol (take out the pit!)
• 1 whole med-lrg cucumber (peeled to decrease chemicals if not organic or grown yourself)
• 1/4 package (big pinch) of alfalfa sprouts (or some other kind of sprout)
• 1  handful of baby spinach
• 1 Nectarine or green apple (our favorites)

You can add these things for a little sweetness, but smaller amounts are preferable:
Berries (non sweetened) Blueberries, Strawberries, Raspberries, Blackberries, Currants, Goji, etc!
Apple
Carrots (sweet)
Beets (sweet)
Nectarine/Peach
Banana

Frozen fruit is great because it makes the smoothie cold and easier to eat for some people. You could add a few ice cubes as well BUT better for your digestion is not frozen.

There are other veggies that you’ll want to try adding…..go nuts!
Some recommendations:
Kale (THE BEST source of dietary Calcium.. but if you don’t eat many raw veggies you’re digestion system may be weak and it will take some time before this is easy to eat) 
Collard Greens 
Mixed Greens 
Various Lettuce
Dandelion Greens 
ANY other dark green leafy vegetables
Broccoli 
Cilantro
Mint

Chop the larger items up before they go in the blender so they get chopped easier. Also add a little bit of Distilled or Reverse Osmosis filtered water (Tap water is toxic!) to desired consistency.. we like ours thicker like almost needing a spoon to eat.

If you use a normal blender it works well to put the cukes and carrots in.. and a little water.. blend.. and then it’s soupy.. so you can add the leafies and other ingredients easier.

For a while we were using the magic bullet for each of our shakes individually.. but now we use the vita-mix blender for both of ours together.. and it’s absolutely fantastic!

The point of having only veggies is to keep the body internally alkaline instead of acidic (which most foods in the Standard American Diet (SAD) are acidifying and cause disease and contribute to degeneration, diabetes, arthritis, cancer, osteoporosis, fibromyalgia, allergies, asthma, etc.)

Begin by doing this daily for a week… and then continue from there. We find it’s a great perk-up in the morning…and you wont be as hungry as soon as if you had cereal, bagels, bread, coffee, etc!

Just the sound of the blender in the morning is a great wake-up call too!

Enjoy and tell us all about your experiences!

The power players in Washington are lining up for the huge fight over Health Care (actually “Sickness Care Insurance”) Reform. The Chiropractic profession does not have the financial resources to compete with pharmaceutical companies, hospitals and others involved with lobbying for the US western medicine system. Our power base has always been and continues to be our patients.

ChiroVoice.org is a website set up to organize info for our greatest resource for the coming decisions over national health care reform: YOU…the chiropractic patients.

Through the chiropractic advocacy network, patients and chiropractic supporters can stay informed about important health care issues and help ensure that:

• Congress does not restrict your ability to access essential chiropractic services.
• Congress does not limit – but instead expands – coverage for services provided by Doctors of Chiropractic within Medicare.
• Insurance and managed care companies do not deny patients’ access to the essential chiropractic services they need.

Your involvement makes a tremendous difference!

WHAT TO DO:
If you are an advocate for chiropractic, you can go to the website and join now to provide your information.. it takes less than a minute.

If you are a Chiropractor or Chiropractic Assistant you can organize this for your office by getting the patient’s permission, and then the DC or staff enter the information at ChiroVoice.org.

Once signed up, you receive periodic updates–currently about once per month. If a need arises to contact your politicians, you will be notified and given options on how to respond.

Politicians respond to their constituents. this is an effective way to let your voices be heard. Take the time today to sign yourself and your staff up and find out how easy it is. Then ask your patients to sign up. It is easy. It is quick. Patients appreciate it. And it is vital.

Change is happening. Let’s make sure that Chiropractic patients and potential patients aren’t left on the outside looking in.

The media and people are all a buzz with the current “news” of worldwide outbreak of swine flu and the pending pandemic forecast. Time and time again we find that there is often a hidden truth behind the media screams, and this scenario is no different. While the “new” reassigned virus does exist, we think that the widespread fear is already out of control. There are many things you should be doing at this current juncture, however worrying about every little cough or sneeze, or running for medications or the next “best” vaccine are not the correct actions.

The best thing you can do is make your body a bad host for all opportunistic viruses, including swine flu. In the article below, Dr. Mercola has put together a fantastic list of the things you should do to accomplish this, and we agree with what he has to say.

There is one more thing to add to his list.. and that is to make sure the master control system of your body.. the nerve system.. is fully communicating and functioning. This is accomplished by being checked for spinal subluxations and getting them adjusted by your chiropractor. Studies show a 200% improved immune system competence with those people under regular chiropractic care!

We urge you to educate yourself on the truths about swine flu, and one of the most complete, referenced, level headed resources for this is the article from Dr. Mercola here.

Once you read this, turn your T.V. off, take a deep breath, go outside and get some healthy sunshine (and vit. D) and go on with your day less stressed and more confident that you are fully equipped for adapting to the life around us.

Location:  Upper Valley Chiropractic Office in West Lebanon, NH
