How to help your child be perfect in school

It's Back to School Time Again! There is excitement in the air as students head back to the classrooms.

We are getting involved as well with our annual school supplies drive. We have had AWESOME participation so far from the community and already had to drop off supplies at area schools because we don't have enough space to store it in the office!

Ask Amy or Ashley how you can get involved and help out our local schools today. In the meantime here are a couple of important reminders for all parents this school year.

1. Get your kids checked for scoliosis! Scoliosis checks are always FREE for children at Coastal Chiropractic. The sooner a potential problem is discovered the better chance you give your child.

2. Go easy on the backpacks. Some kids out there are little squirts and it's not good for their backs to carry so much weight. The American Chiropractic Association recommends  no more than 10% of the child's weight.

3. Help your child focus. How? Well, there is growing research showing the effectiveness of ADHD and chiropractic care. In our office recently we have seen similar results with patients of all ages, not just children.

Welcome back to school and give you children the best start to the new year!

Auto Accident Injury Treatment in Edgewater

7/30/2013

Here is a video of our digital motion x ray machine. This is actually my neck.

Also some interesting news:
The speed at which accident victims may be injured in rear-impact car crashes is amazingly low.

Recent research articles have shown that the human threshold for neck injuries in a rear-impact automobile collision is only 2.5 mph.

For years the personal injury field has used 5 mph as a consensus figure for injuries. Brault, et al has shown that the 5 mph figure was indeed double the actual figure. Others have shown that slow speed collisions actually cause more injury than collisions with more vehicle damage.

Common Medical Mistakes:
•Assuming you are not injured because your pain is mild
•Assuming you aren’t hurt because your car wasn’t
•Believing the ER doctor when he or she says “it’s just a strain, you’ll be better in a couple of days…”
•Treating with non auto accident specialists like your general chiropractor, family medical doctor, HMO doctor, etc. Accident injuries are not the same as gardening strains, and require advanced training.
(Source Dr Barry Marks)

Rest assured all the doctors and therapists at Coastal Chiropractic Clinic are highly trained experts - not only in health & wellness, but also personal injury care.

If you have been in an accident get checked immediately. New Florida laws require a checkup within two weeks or you lose all your health benefits. It is common to feel little or no pain just after an accident, a few simple tests by an expert can determine if there are any injuries.

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

Rack Cards by Vistaprint
Our new flyer looks great especially with our model Carter representing. He shows what it's like to feel good!

We all have gone through life with different difficulties and trials. We get knocked down emotionally, mentally, and physically. We always get back up though. We are here to help and to make you feel good again!

We will be at the 5k River Run on October 20th in Edgewater supporting the RBI Cudas. I will be at the event early to offer kinesio taping to all race participants. More on this later. See you there!

How to Win a Super Bowl

Patriots Super Bowl ring 2005
    I never played football, but it's possible to win a Super Bowl one day.
   Yesterday I had lunch with quite a few doctors of chiropractic at my continuing education class. I was fortunate enough to sit by Dr. Michael Miller from Norwood, MA. Dr. Miller was wearing a ring that looks just like the one in the picture. I could tell by looking at him that it wasn't likely that he was a player on the Patriots any time recently (no offense intended, he is in great shape). Dr. Miller must have read my mind and informed me he is the team chiropractor for the New England Patriots! Then he let me hold the ring. Cool.
   
Since this would seem like every sports chiropractor's dream job I asked a few more questions. He told me that while all NFL teams have a team chiropractor, not all teams require players to get their spines checked. He said he is much busier than some NFL chiropractors because the Patriots require certain players get adjusted. Seems like the Patriots might know what they are doing. 

    The world's top athletes often attribute their performances to help from chiropractors. Recently (before the knee injury) Derek Rose made mention on national TV how his chiropractor helped him (see video HERE.) They already know that an adjustment will increase optimal performance and function.

    If the world's top athletes see the need to get adjusted, don't you think you might have one too?
  
I do know if I'm ever going to win a Super Bowl, it is going to be by helping the athletes on the field perform like champions.

p.s. The picture below is where the convention was held at Boca Raton Resort and Club. It was amazing and I didn't even stay there! Wish I would have got a picture of the ring on my finger...
