We had some helpers cut the ribbon.
It is now official! We have been in the new office for two weeks and it is AWESOME! We made it official on Thursday with our ribbon cutting ceremony (thank you City of Edgewater). We had a great turnout to enjoy tours of the new office and see all the great improvements for our patients. Everyone enjoyed the catered food from Blue Mule Deli in Edgewater and Beef O Brady's in New Smyrna Beach. Most got to enjoy the free chair massages and we gave away lots of great gift baskets from Ramunto's Pizza, Heath's Health food, and many others.

Our new sign at 315 N Ridgewood Ave
We are moving to a NEW BETTER location! Our first day of seeing patients at the new office will be July 8th. We will be better able to serve all our patient's needs at our new office. Here is a list of new services we will be offering: 1. We will be adding massage therapy shortly after moving. 2. We will be adding rehab services to achieve even better results (I know you are asking if that's even possible). 3. We will be upgrading to digital x ray. Wait, not just digital x ray, but digital MOTION x ray. That means we can take a small video clip of you moving as an x ray. This can really help diagnose more complex cases as well as help with car accident and whiplash cases. 4. We will continue with the same AWESOME chiropractic services and adjustments and all the same staff. Please stay tuned for upcoming announcements on the Ribbon Cutting and Open House which will both be held in July. We will have door prizes, raffles, free chair massages, free food, and more! I know you are excited. “The hands-on, active care of doctors of chiropractic and their advice on a healthy lifestyle are essential to our military men and women.” Retired U.S. Army Brigadier General & First Female West Point Graduate to be promoted to that position— Becky Halstead BRIGADIER GENERAL Most everyone is thinking of what to cook on the grill about right now in preparation for Memorial Day. Well, maybe it's just me, but I wanted to take a minute to remember those who served and how we can serve them. I had the privilege of hearing General Beck Halstead speak in person about her experience with chiropractic care. Dare to say NO What is responsible for nearly 100 deaths a day in America? In a report released by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) in 2011, Drug Overdoses in the United States caused 36,450 deaths. 73.8% of the drug overdoses were prescription drugs. Other VERY important facts from the report include:
I recently read an article on the side effects of chiropractic care. They include better breathing, fewer or no headaches, increased range of motion, and a improved sense of well being to name a few. On the other hand I enjoy listening to the list of side effects that great new medication the TV told me to ask my doctor about. It said suicide was rare. What do you plan to accomplish in 2013? So, it's been a month in the new year and what have you done so far? You only have 11 more months to reach your goals for the year! I spent the good part of the first month of the year asking our patients what they would like to achieve in the upcoming year. From my unofficial results of my poll I found that either: 1) many people have no plan or Most patients that come into the office are aware of the conservative nature of chiropractic care. I recently came across this diddy of research. A review, by scientists at the Department of Orthopaedics at the Geisel School of Medicine, clearly suggests that the first doctor you choose to see will have a profound effect on whether you end up having spinal surgery. Just look at these stats: 42.7% of workers who first saw a surgeon ended in surgery, as opposed to only 1.5% of those who (first) saw a chiropractor. The authors conclude: “There was a very strong association between surgery and first provider seen for the injury, even after adjustment for other important variables.” There is no better feeling than knowing we have helped someone avoid surgery and all the possible complications. We have seen this in the office in cases of scoliosis, back pain, knee pain, shoulder pain (rotator cuff), and neck pain. We are happy to give our opinion on ways we can help residents of New Smyrna Beach, Edgewater, Oak Hill, and surrounding areas. With all the Holiday stress we go through, I can't imagine anyone that needs a chiropractor more than Saint Nick! T’WAS JUST BEFORE CHRISTMAS T’was just before Christmas, but there was no cheer. No jingle bells jingled, no sound of reindeer. The word had gone out that Santa was sick. There would be no visit from jolly St. Nick. The people were sad; no gaiety sounded. For Christmas was coming but Santa was grounded. He drove down the road, and what should he see? But a sign for a doctor, who was a D.C. Now Santa wasn’t one to like a new tactic, But all else had failed, so he tried Chiropractic. He entered the office and saw at a glance, in a place such as this, illness hasn’t a chance. The office staff smiled, the music was snappy, with all of the patients contented and happy. In a very short time, to judge by the clock, he was in the adjusting room, talking to Doc. It must be the hurry, the tension and all, I simply can’t seem to get on the ball. Life used to be easy; just kids, toys and whistles, now I dodge smog, spaceships and missiles! And Doc, take a look at the size of this pack! Have you any idea what it does to my back? Poor Santa was miserable and just barely able, with the help of the Doctor, to get on the table. The Doctor was gentle; without a fuss or tussle he examined the vertebrae and relaxed every muscle. He spotted trouble and then with a click, started aligning the spine of St. Nick. Santa felt aches and pains slip away and in no time at all he began to feel gay The air was a tingle with new fallen snow and a healthy Kris Kringle was rarin’ to go. As he went out the door, he threw them a kiss; why, it had been centuries since he felt like this! Then once more he shouldered the bag full of toys, his heart overflowing with true Christmas joys. So, may we, your friends, echo this cheer? Merry Christmas to you and to all a good year! Author unknown. Original poem modified. Have a safe and Happy Holiday from Coastal Chiropractic! Trick question. But that also means whatever you answered you are probably right (unless you said "I don't know). Inflammation is the body's natural response to promote healing after injury or damage to the body. In this case, acute inflammation, it is GOOD. When acute inflammation becomes chronic inflammation it is BAD. Chronic inflammation has been associated with cancer, diabetes, depression, heart disease, stroke, Alzheimer's. Is that a big enough list for you? How does chronic inflammation start in the body and how can you avoid it? 1. Eat - You are what you eat. You are either increasing the inflammation in your body by your diet or decreasing inflammation. Avoid excess grains, soda, sugars, hydrogenated oils, packaged foods, and dairy. Eat fruits and vegetables, fish, grass fed meat, nuts, spices (ginger, turmeric, garlic) red or sweet potatoes, and drink lots of water. 2. Stress - an increase the in the hormone cortisol due to stress has been linked to increase in obesity and inflammation. Decrease stress by getting enough sleep and exercise. 3. Probiotics - Research has shown that a good probiotic can decrease inflammation in the gut and throughout the body. The most common symptom of chronic inflammation we see in the office is PAIN. Often with some nutritional support and supplements we can reverse the chronic inflammation in the body and allow the body to heal properly. Find us on facebook for more health updates.

I've found from past experience that the best gift you can give someone is something they value the most. We can't get you a new family, but we can help with your health (and your family's)! Chiropractors are excellent at improving neck pain and headaches. What is one thing you can do to improve your neck pain and headaches besides getting adjusted by your chiropractor? Just in time for gift giving and the holidays we now carry Chiroflow pillows in the office! Research conducted at John Hopkins indicated that Chiroflow pillows reduce intensity of pain, increase pain relief, and improve quality of sleep. At Coastal Chiropractic we look at all possibilities to help our patients in Edgewater, New Smyrna Beach, Oak Hill, and Port Orange. For those looking for an even more advanced and specific gift for loved ones this season, we are now distributors for custom made pillows. How is your neck different from mine? We are all unique sizes, shapes, and have different sleeping patterns. Some sleep on the side, others on the back, and some on the stomach (not good, I'll explain later). Because of these differences it is important to have a pillow that fits your needs. Ask us how we can make a pillow custom to YOUR needs. Call today 386-427-8403 |
