Thanksgiving Around the Corner

I have been in this position as a Chiropractic Assistant for almost a year and a half. Honestly I didn't think much of it when I first took the job. To me it was a job, but I have learned a lot since then and seen miracles happen every day. Our doctors genuinely care about their patients and about everyone getting better. If you want to get better the doctors will work with you to make it work. This November we asked a few of our patients what they are thankful for health wise:

Since July when I started treatment I've lost 33 lbs. I have terrible arthritis that had started causing some debilitating (sp) symptoms. Dr. Hugh started adjusting. I feel 100% better. 

Thank you,

Maggie A.

I have fewer headaches + much better range of motion.

Toni T.

Ability to walk pain free!

Diabetes is up 700%

Diabetes is up 700% according to the Maximized Living Blog article just recently published.

This article was very interesting for me to read because my grandma died of diabetes and my family (according to the doctor) is at high risk for getting diabetes. This honestly has me concerned. Especially since I would like to live a long time and I would love if my loved ones will live a long healthy life. What is a healthy life? One that doesn't require me to not be naturally living, no drugs, no oxygen mask, no wheelchair. I mean who wants to retire to nursing home? Most people want to retire, travel, do the things they love, and spend time with their loved ones.

On November 22nd, 2011 Maximized Living is hosting a free webinar about Diabetes and things you can do to reverse it and/or prevent it. We need to stop accepting things as they are told and explore other ways to take care of themselves. Meaning I can sit here and accept that I will get diabetes and die because the doctors says I will get it and I should just accept it. If you're like me you learn it's your life, it's your health, don't let anyone tell you how to live it.

If you have or know someone who have diabetes or prediabetes you should come in to a Maximized Living Clinic and learn about natural ways to stand up for your own health. If you  are in the Twin Cities area you can come in for a free consultation at Bandana Chiropractic and Wellness Center in Roseville Minnesota. Call 651-646-2050 and mention this blog.
