Chiropractic Thought for the Week:  The weight of the average head is 9-12 lbs.  7 small, moveable bones support this weight with help from the spinal muscles and spinal ligaments.  Any sudden or jarring motion to the head will have a straining effect on the neck muscles which can cause the neck bones to subluxate or misalign.  Once the vertebra are out of their normal joint position, neck pain and possible headaches is the result.  Chiropractors correct the alignment of the cervical spine with chiropractic adjustments to the spinal joints, restoring proper alignment and joint motion.  This allows the neck to heal and function normally.

My name is Dr. J. Zimmerman and I am a chiropractor.  I have been in practice for 27 years.  My chiropractic practice uses many different chiropractic techniques to improve bodily function and restore health. My chiropractic office is located in Galloway Township (the Smithville section) of Atlantic County, NJ.  You can contact me for more chiropractic information at Health First Chiropractic Clinics,  609-652-6363.   www.HealthFirstChiropractic.com

Reduced Interference

You are what you eat!! Eat junk and new cells are junk. Eat right and new cells are healthy cells. In addition, chiropractic can help in the creation of new cells (see the DNA study). The focus of chiropractic care is to remove any physiological blocks to the proper expression of the body’s innate wisdom. Once these interferences are reduced, improved health is the natural consequence. Who wouldn’t want that?

Dr. J’s Health Tip of the Week:  The flu shot is overhyped and oversold as the be all and end all to preventing flu.  As a matter of fact, it has been widely reported in the news media, that the last few years of flu shot statistics show that the flu shot was less than effective at preventing the flu.  The flu shot is most effective at padding the bottom line of the drug companies that manufacture this vaccine.  The marketing campaigns for promoting the flu vaccine are outstanding.  Every drug store and supermarket in the area has banners and signs with the boldly printed words “Flu Shot Here.”   If this was summer time I would half expect to see a flying banner airplane canvassing our local beaches with the flu shot message.  The bottom line is with a little investigation, the general public can take actions steps that actually work to prevent the flu.  Much research on Vitamin D3 (the sunshine vitamin) has shown that D3 enhances immune system function.  It makes sense.  Why do you think the flu season is in the winter time?  There is less sunshine exposure in the winter months.  In addition, eating whole foods, exercising on a regular basis, getting enough sleep and other vitamin supplementation (Vitamin C) have all been shown to have beneficial effects on immune system function.  If your immune system is functioning at a higher level you will not only have less incidence of flu, but other viruses as well.

Thought for the Week:  The best six doctors anywhere, And no one can deny it, Are sunshine, water, rest, and air, Exercise and diet. These six will gladly you attend, If only you are willing, Your mind they'll ease.  Your will they'll mend.  And charge you not a shilling.
~Nursery rhyme quoted by Wayne Fields, What the River Knows, 1990

Chiropractic Thought for the Week:  In addition to vitamin D3, Vitamin C and Oregano Oil (everyone needs this in there medicine cabinet), many other alternative therapies can help keep your body healthier by enhancing immune system function.  Acupuncture, massage and yoga all have increased benefits to building immune system function.  Chiropractic is probably one of the best things out there for sickness prevention via the spinal adjustment.  It’s not a treatment for colds and flu, but statistics show that patients under regular chiropractic care, at least 1 x per month are healthier than those that are not.  Why?  Chiropractic adjustments remove spinal nerve stress which compromises immune system function. The chiropractic adjustment can help your body work better and be healthier.
