Get Your Chiropractic Flu Shot!

Dr. Jason — Fri, 21 Oct 2011 12:58:45 +0000

One of the many benefits of Chiropractic care is it can provide excellent help toward fighitng against and warding off the flu. Spinal adjustments provided by chiropractors have an excellent track record in increasing the immune function of the body and helping it to stay healthy - especially during cold and flu season!

The reason for this success is because Chiropractic works to increase the function of the immune system. It does so by correcting spinal misalignments, known as subluxations. These subluxations are known to cause interference with the proper function of the nervous system by placing pressure or stress upon the nerves themselves. As the nervous system controls all bodily functions, including those of the immune system, chiropractic adjustments go a long way toward contributing to overall health and wellness.

The interaction between the nervous and immune systems has been shown to be positively affected by chiropractic adjustment. “Through research, we know that Chiropractic has beneficial effects on immunogobluins (a natural occurring antibody), B-lymphocytes (white blood cells), pulmonary (lungs) function and other immune system processes,” said Dr. Matthew McCoy, who serves as the editor of the Journal of Vertebral Subluxation Research.

One such study tested the response of white blood cells as important infection fighters. When a Chiropractic adjustment was applied to the middle of the back, it was found that white blood cells were present in significantly higher number than prior to the adjustment. These white blood cells are what find and destroy invading viruses and bacteria, including the flu virus!

Chiropractors are concerned with the total well-being of the individual and educate their patients toward positive health and lifestyle choices. Regular adjustments, getting ample rest, drinking adequate water, regular exercise, choosing a proper diet, and correctly using multivitamins and minerals are essential to staying resistant to colds and flu.

In Health,

So Many Benefits with Chiropractic Care!

Heidi — Wed, 12 Oct 2011 16:31:25 +0000

I visited the Hoisington Family Chiropractic booth at the Faribault Business Expo. Dr. Jason did a scan on my neck area and explained the results. I then scheduled an appointment.

After just one adjustment my left sinus opened up and was clear, and after one month my vision was no longer cloudy (fuzzy). I no longer have pain in my neck and my balance is much improved allowing me to exercise with better form. My allergies have greatly improved, no more sinus headaches. I have better focus and concentration and my vertigo is once again non-existent. I have experienced too many benefits to mention them all, I feel more fully alive. I so enjoy activities again without suffering pain as well as sleeping better.

I don’t have to say much to others as to the benefits of my chiropractic care, they can see the positive change in me. I do encourage everyone to an initial visit, the results speak for themselves.

Thank you Dr. Jason!

True Healthcare Reform

Dr. Jason — Wed, 10 Aug 2011 22:52:00 +0000

Healthcare costs are skyrocketing. Insurance premiums continue to rise year after year, while insurance coverage for the patient is decreasing. The healthcare system cannont be sustained at the rate we are going. It si true that healthcare reform is needed. This reform needs to be more than just cutting costs and limiting care in the current medical system. We can’t continue treating diseases and symptoms while ignoring the causes of these problems and expect any real reform to take place. In the words of Albert Einstein, “doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results” is the definition of insanity.

Health comes from inside. We need to do everything we can to ensure our bodies are working well from the inside out, not the other way around. Chiropractors recognize this and are poised to be the leaders of the reform that is truly needed. Statistics of patients who regularly utilze chiropractors as their primary care physicians show it reduces the need for:

Hospitalizations by 60.2%
Hospital days by 59%
Pharmaceutical usage by 85%
Outpatient surgeries and procedures by 62%
Overall global health care cost by 50%

Numbers tell a story and these numbers clearly show chiropractic can and should play a major role in refoming healthcare and controlling the astornomical costs in the current health care system. Getting adjusted regularly is a win-win.

See your chiropractor and you will benefit from better health and save money too!

Consistent, Caring Chiropractic Care!

Heidi — Mon, 06 Jun 2011 20:39:59 +0000

I needed a change from my past chiropractic experience which was inconsistent. I needed consistency and continuous care for my physical needs. I found a friend had wonderful success at Hoisington Family Chiropractic. I took her advice and accepted a complimentary Family or Friend certificate from her. I was having cervical spine issues that were really making my life difficult. I need more direct, consistent hands on care.

I wake up each morning with less stiffness in my neck area. This lasts longer and longer throughout the day and makes work go much easier; before the constant pain would return frequently and quickly. My digestion has also benefited greatly from seeing Dr. Jason. I no longer need to take the twice weekly dose of fiber I used to.

Dr. Jason is very thorough with his patients and listens to their concerns. He is very caring and gentle with all of his approaches to chiropractic care. If you have any health concerns he will help you through them, but if you feel it’s not helping, hang in there your body will respond to the treatments.

One Family’s Great Success With Chiropractic Care!

Heidi — Mon, 14 Mar 2011 14:32:07 +0000

We first met Dr Jason when our son Noah hurt his leg jumping on our bed and was unable to walk. I had taken Noah to three different doctors’ appointments over a one week period and none gave us any answers. I was desperate for help and he was in so much pain. We noticed an immediate difference after his first adjustment with Dr Jason and within 24 to 48 hours he was walking again. He was back to normal in a week’s time. Noah also struggled with sleeping at night and we noticed that he had more peaceful sleep after his adjustments as well.

Our daughter Ruby started seeing Dr Jason shortly after Noah. We were so pleased with Noah’s results that we wanted to give her the same opportunity. Ruby was diagnosed with Cerebral Palsy around one year of age. Her Cerebral Palsy was very mild but we noticed that she was ignoring her left side and was scooting on her bottom instead of crawling. Dr Jason and Heidi were both very supportive of having Ruby checked out. I believe that Ruby would not function as well as she does if it were not for her regular adjustments. When we took her to Gillette Children’s for her first appointment they recommended chiropractic care for Ruby and they were pleased to here she already had regularly scheduled appointments. On her return appointment they complimented her on her “nice straight spine.” I also feel that the kid’s regular adjustments have eased their anxiety about doctor visits in general.

I recently began having adjustments as well. I turned 30 this year and over the last ten years have noticed a decline in my overall health. I have had severe reactions to vaccines in the past and with each child have noticed more aches and pains. I have struggled with asthma my entire life and it was at its worst. I was using my inhaler daily and some days multiple times. Since I have been getting regular adjustments I have used my inhaler less than a couple times a week and have noticed an overall improvement in my breathing. I also have been able to sleep 8 to 10 hours a night. I have notice that the “brain fog” I used to experience has gone and I feel like I have more energy during the day.

Our family is so happy to be a part of Hoisington Family Chiropractic. We hope that others are able to enjoy the experience of feeling healthy too!!

Chiropractic Care Helped my Sinuses, Sleep, and Sewing!

Dr. Jason — Wed, 02 Feb 2011 17:30:20 +0000

I first went to a chiropractor around 30 years ago for a bad cold and had very good results. Some time after that I started going for tension in my upper back and neck. I went regularly, once a month and this helped with the tension and continued to help me with my winter colds. The chiropractor I was seeing then moved out of town and I was no longer going on a regular basis. I saw different chiropractors through the years but typically only when I had a lot of pain.

In May of this year I met with Dr. Jason and began the chiropractic care he recommended for me. I have had great results. I sleep much better, have less pain between my shoulders and my sinuses aren’t bothering me this fall as they have for the past several years.

Also, I love to sew but for quite awhile now I’ve only been able to sew for about an hour at a time. I am back to sewing 3 hours at a time since I’ve been seeing Dr. Jason.

I receive my adjustments once a week now, and keeping my appointments with Dr Jason and doing my exercises has helped me get my life back.

Boost Your Immune system Naturally!

Dr. Jason — Wed, 10 Nov 2010 17:10:30 +0000

Flu season is here again. People are lining up at every corner to get their flu shots in hopes of staying healthy this season. Contrary to popular belief, the flu shot is not very effective at preventing the flu or flu related deaths. The real key to staying healthy at this time of year (and always) is having a STRONG IMMUNE SYSTEM. This is our primary defense against the flu and any other invader that tries to take over our body. It prevents illness and helps you recover should you become ill. You might ask “What can I do to ensure my immune system is in great shape to keep me healthy?”

HERE ARE SOME TIPS FOR BOOSTING YOUR IMMUNE SYSTEM:

Get Adjusted: When you get adjusted you increase immune function. Research shows Chiropractic to have an influence on white blood cell and antibody levels (which are important components of your immune system)
Eat a Healthy well balanced Diet: Give your body the fuel it needs to run well. You wouldn’t put diesel fuel in a gasoline engine. Your body also needs proper fuel to function
Limit Sugar: Sugar wipes out your immune system. Soda, candy, sweets, treats, and juices are loaded with sugar. Also watch out for and limit High Fructose Corn Syrup (which is also sugar) in many of the processed foods we eat.
Exercise: This will give your immune system a boost! It increases blood supply and oxygen to your body, which is important in healing.
Get Enough Rest: Sleep is vital to staying healthy. Your body needs sleep to recover and heal from the daily grind. Minimum of 6-8 hrs.
Vitamin D: The sunshine vitamin. If you live in Minnesota between September and May you are low in vitamin D and need to supplement. It’s important not only for your immune system but also for combating the winter blues (also called Seasonal Affective Disorder or SAD)
Probiotics: This is the good bacteria that lives in the intestines and is important in maximizing your immune health.

Health comes from inside. Following these tips will have your body in great shape to stay healthy this winter.

Could Chiropractic help my Allergies?

Dr. Jason — Wed, 23 Jun 2010 15:15:43 +0000

Spring is here at last! For those of us living in the upper Midwest it is an exciting time of year. Sub-zero weather is in the rearview mirror and we can look forward to sunshine, budding trees and blooming flowers. For millions of Americans it is also a time for their dreaded allergies to come back to life. Itchy watery eyes, dripping noses, tickly throats and sneezes are here. For this reason many people dread spring rather than look forward to enjoying the beautiful outdoors. Allergies do not necessarily have to be a life sentence. There is hope.

Allergy sufferers have praised chiropractic for over a century. Many have experienced dramatic improvement or elimination of their dreaded allergy symptoms as a result of chiropractic care. Chiropractic care is not a treatment for allergies however. The goal of chiropractic care is to locate and correct a serious type of spine and nervous system stress call the vertebral subluxation complex. By releasing stress on the nervous system, chiropractic permits the immune system to function more effectively: something all allergy sufferers need since a nervous system with less stress functions more efficiently.

One review of patients at a chiropractic college clinic found that pediatric patients commonly had complaints of allergy, ear infection, sinus problems, bed-wetting, respiratory problems and gastrointestinal problems. Complete or substantial improvement occurred in 61.6%.[i]

For over a hundred years chiropractors have, by reducing nervous system stress caused by vertebral subluxations, helped people adapt better to all the stresses in their environment, including those relating to allergies.

Let chiropractic help you build better health from the inside!
