Parker Seminars Las Vegas 2012

Dr. Mike & Mandy at seminar headquarters.

We had a fabulous time learning more about chiropractic, ourselves and our world.  So much information available, so much to absorb and that was just at the seminar.  Not to mention the bombardment of the whole Vegas in your face!
Such inspiring speakers!  We took pages and pages of notes, still trying to process all of it.

Dr. James Chestnut, Innate Choice.

We have many favourite speakers in the chiropractic profession.  We always learn so much.  Dr. James Chestnut is "Mr. Research".  He continues to inspire and lead our profession in the science of chiropractic.  His topic was most interesting- we all have the knowledge, but why don't we do what we know we need to do? Combined with valuable exercises to do for our mind, (since we know we have a fit body, we need a fit mind), we can do anything we decide to do.

Cheryl Richardson and Louise Hay.  A dynamic duo!  Louise Hay, founder of Hay House and an inspriration to millions was there full of joy, energy and vitatlity.  All 85 years of her.  Such a sense of humour, such love of life.  Their main message: "Love yourself first".  There were many Hay House participants attending this day of speakers. We got the chance to share the story of Chiropractic with them.

It was another amazing seminar!  Always learning, always growing, always evolving.

Ear Infections and Chiropractic

 

Ear pain is the number one reason for child visits to chiropractors. Many chiropractors believe that there is a strong link between the birthing process and recurrent ear infection, also known as otitis media. During the birthing process, cervical (neck) vertebrae can become misaligned, disrupting nerve function, which can affect the eustachian tube. This may lead to fluid buildup in the middle ear and cause otitis media.
Ear infection or otitis media accounts for over 35% of all pediatrician visits in the United States. Antibiotics, the usual treatment, are not always effective and may even lead to a recurrence of ear infections. Many children are dealing with a continuing cycle of repeat ear infections, which lands them back at the pediatrician for more antibiotics. For nearly 100 years, the chiropractic profession has claimed that ear and other upper respiratory infections respond favorably to chiropractic adjustments.
A promising study published in the Journal of Clinical Chiropractic Pediatrics indicates that there is a strong correlation between chiropractic adjustments and the resolution of ear infections. 332 children with chronic ear infections participated in the study. Each child, ranging in age from 27 days to 5 years, was given a series of chiropractic adjustments. The results show that close to 80% of the children did not experience another ear infection within the six-month period following their initial visits. The six-month period included maintenance treatments every four to six weeks. Joan M. Fallon, D.C., the author of the study and the chiropractor who treated the children in the study, states that this pilot study can serve as a starting point from which the chiropractic profession can begin to examine its role in the treatment of children with chronic ear infections. She asserts that large-scale clinical trials need to be undertaken in the field.

Come in and see what we can do to help with Ear Infections.  Chiropractic is a whole body wellness approach.
