Goji

A patient has told me that her irritable bowel syndrome went away with a couple of ounces of Goji juice.

She said that for the first time in four years, she is not conscious of her intestines, and where the closest bathroom is.

Pretty cool when you realize that there is no real solution for IBS/Chron's from "modern medicine".

Getting ready for time off

Today I am making last-minute preparations before we go on our vacation. It's funny how much work you have to do in order to prepare time off.

AgelessXtra

I have been taking a new product, AgelessXtra-and I really can tell there has been an incredible difference in the way I feel. First of all, I feel much more relaxed and peaceful-but not groggy or "out of it". Second, I am sleeping very deeply. I am usually up once or twice a night to "check on things"

Those who know me know that I'm always trying some new supplement, juice, or vitamin. However, I really can tell the difference with this.

If you want to pick some up, it will soon be available at my office. I just ordered some to recommend to my patients.

Dad

It's Father's day. I was thinking about my Dad. It's been over ten years since he's been gone-I still miss him.

I miss him calling me "kiddo"while I was in my thirties. I miss his sense of humor and how nothing ever seemed to faze him.

Even though I know he was far from perfect, he was a great dad.

Happy father's day, I miss you.

Father's day weekend

I have been alone with my daughters this weekend, since Kim is at her high school reunion. It really has been a blast with them-they have been extra helpful and well-behaved.

I had to bring them to work with me on Saturday, but Liliana (my assistant) picked them up and took them to her son's birthday party. They had a wonderful time!

The really cool thing was that they surprised me with a father's day present and assorted artwork.

PMS and spinal misalignment

Check out this study on the relationship between PMS and subluxation (spinal misalignment).

Now guys, don't all of you send me messages telling me that your wives need an adjustment!

Now I've heard everything!

I was channel surfing on XM Radio on my way home today and tuned in to a version of U2's "Still haven't found what I'm looking for". The it was in Spanish to a salsa beat -by Coco Freeman and U2. I'm not sure I like it-but it definitely is something different.

Kids

I always love it when existing clients bring in their kids to get adjusted. Number one it means that they get it-that chiropractic is for much more than just pain relief.

And number two, It honors me when they trust me with the care of their children. In the office, we don't charge for adjustments on kids under 12 (as long as the parent is getting adjusted)

We feel it's that important.
