A Father's Day Poem
By Dr. Catherine
Maloof
If I could choose any
father in the world,
I would choose you.
God gave me such a special
treasure,
He gave me you.
You have been perfectly chosen for me,
And we
thank God everyday for you.
A child always wants to be loved by their
father.
Whether near or far, you have always cared for me from the very
start.
God is our heavenly father,
And I am so fortunate to have a father
on earth as wonderful as you.
As the years pass by and I grow older,
I
know one thing for sure; you have always loved me deeply.
I just want you to
know even though I don't say it often enough,
I love you from the bottom of
my heart.
If I could choose any father in the world,
I would choose
you.
Happy Father's Day to all the Father's in
the World!
Weekend
Warriors
How many of
you go out and play sports over the weekend for fun and wake up Monday morning
feeling like you've been hit by a Mac truck? That is the weekend warrior
syndrome. It's great to go out
and have fun, I encourage it. Play
golf with your buddies, shoot baskets with your kids, kick the soccer ball
around, play on a softball league or whatever sport you
enjoy.
There are a
few precautions you may want to take:
1).
Stretch, stretch, stretch. Warm up
before you play and most importantly stretch
after.
Dr. Maloof has different stretch
handouts for all sports available at her office.
2).
Drink plenty of water while exercising. Hydrate your body.
3). If you sweat a lot bring an extra shirt
to change and a sweatshirt.
Keep your body warm to prevent pulling
muscles.
4).
Use Traumeel creme (homeopathic ointment available at Dr. Maloof's),
before you play.
Put on the areas of your body
that normally get sore. Also, put
on again after you shower.
5).
Ice. Always use ice for an injury, when you feel soreness. 20 minutes every 2
hours.
6).
Come in for regular chiropractic care to keep your body in alignment, which is
#1 to prevent sports injuries.
Improve Your Athletic
Performance
Would you like to swim faster lap
times? Reduce your golf handicap? Or, maybe you would like to improve your
tennis game. You can! And, you can do it without changing your current
nutrition or training program.
How? Well...read on!
Not too long ago, a group of athletes
were recruited to participate in a study. A variety of sports activities
were represented and none had ever had any chiropractic care! Half of the
participants were placed on a chiropractic evaluation and care program.
The other half continued with their normal activities.
The group
receiving chiropractic care was instructed not to change their habits - other
than the chiropractic care provided during the twelve week study. Here's
the result: The chiropractic athlete was able to perform 16.7% better
from his original athletic abilities!
Think about it. No
change in diet. No change in exercise. No change in
activities. Just the addition of chiropractic and they could outperform
their previous abilities by almost seventeen percent!
Why
Chiropractic?
The more active you are - at work or play - the more
likely you'll have some sort of misalignment problem in your back. And,
while many people will not even be aware of the problem - until they get a sore
neck or backache - the fact is that these misalignments can apply pressure to
your nerves. The results? Well, think of it like this: What happens
when you get a kink in the garden hose while watering? Right...the flow of
water is reduced. Now, if you apply a little pressure or get a little kink
with a nerve - the flow of energy and the ability to communicate with your
body is affected. Locating this misalignment is the specialty of the
chiropractor. Once located, the chiropractor can make the correct
adjustment.
