Are You High Maintenance?
This one will get you thinking.
I take aspirin for the headache caused by the Zyrtec I take from the Relenza for the uneasy stomach from the Ritalin I take for the short attention span caused by the Scopoderm TTS I take for the motion sickness I got from the Lomotil I take for the diarrhoea caused by the Xenical for the uncontrolled weight gain from the Paxil I take for the anxiety from the Lipitor I take for my high cholesterol.
Because exercise, a good diet and regular Chiropractic Care is just Too Much Trouble!
Are you too busy to get better?
Clinic Patient Resources updated with loads of Free Stuff
We have been doing a lot of work behind the scenes on the Clinic Patient ONLY Resources section of the site.
This section of the site contains resources only available to clinic patients – i.e. patients that physically attend the practice and are under care from Dr. Hooper and the Team.
You must be logged as a patient of the practice to view the contents of this section of the site.
When you attend the practice as a new patient, you will be sent special information from the Reception Team regarding your care.
The Reception Team will also provide your username (or email) and password verified by email.
This section contains specific information to assist you in your recovery and enhance your care.
It contains Free eBook downloads for Stretching and Exercise, Healthy Eating, Eating to Reduce Inflammation, The Wellness Protocol, Postural Programs and more.
They are a great, free resource for all patients of the practice.
After download, I suggest that you copy them to your eReader or Kindle – so your copy is good to go. Very handy for the exercise and healthy eating programs.
Enjoy.
Introducing The Musculoskeletal Profile
Many patients really struggle with neck pain, back pain, headaches, arthritis, stress and chronic pains.
And of those patients, it is bewildering that many have years of treatment with varying practitioners, spending thousands of dollars – and NEVER having these key nutrients tested.
It is highly unlikely you will ever achieve a great outcome in the care if these key values are not right.
Now optimal is the key here.
Near enough is not good enough.
If you are paying north of $60 a visit to a therapist or practitioner you need to have the key nutrients at the optimal level to get the best out of your care. You need to get this right.
If you are using natural medicines or health supplements you need to know if they are working and you are taking the correct amount.
Further more being in a ‘normal’ range is quite different than being in an optimal range to encourage the body to heal.
Introducing the Wellness Protocol
I have just added some more free eBooks to the Patient Resources Page that are worth downloading.
Introducing The Wellness Protocol. An easy to read, simple and yet profound little eBook.
This is the culmination of over 20 years work, dealing with thousands of patients just like you.
The Wellness Protocol is what I consider to be essential for truly healthy living and being the best you can be.
This is true wellness addressing all the most important issues that you need to function properly.
I have implemented the protocol as part of the treatment play for a wide range of clinical problems. The Wellness Protocol is exceptionally effective and we have seen it work time and time again within the Practice.
If you would like to know what supplements to take, how much water to drink and what types of food should be eating to minimise your risk of cancer, heart disease and diabetes – then this is for you.
Carbs and Proteins Explained Updated
I have just updated the page on Carbs and Protein.
I wrote this years ago but was updating it in preparation for a new patient a little confused with what to eat and when.
This is a good read for all new patients and for those who want to revisit the basics.
Remember, what you eat fuels your recovery and has a direct impact on your pain levels.
You can’t medicate yourself out of a condition you are eating yourself into.
Membership Upgrades, Menus and Logins
I have been a little quiet on the blog lately, however we have been doing a lot of work behind the scenes.
And even in saying ‘a lot’ this is still probably an understatement.
It has been a massive task moving thousands of pages of information. So if you see any errors or links not working please bear with us – or better yet, use the contact form under Support and let me know of the issue.
We have been busy constructing the eClinic and Shop which is now up and running.
We are trialling a new menu design on the shop and will continue to develop the functionality over the next week with the coders.
It is a little pedestrian at the moment – but see if you like it.
