I have seen a lot of exercise programs over the years. Most of them address the common areas of exercise.... Cardio, Strength, Endurance, Flexibility, etc Those are all essential to health and fitness. But there is a huge component they are missing. This particular area is not missing from our Total Health Body Balance program. Click on the link below to watch what I'm talking about: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hX4bgBUGo_w

I'm excited to say that The Total Health Body Balance exercise program is almost ready! I had a seminar in my office going over the program and it went great! I recorded it so all I have to do now is put it all on DVD in an easy to use format. Plus I'm going to do some testing on it with a select group of people so they can give me even more feedback on this very specific exercise program. Over the next few weeks I'll show you some preview videos so you can get a better understanding of why ...

When one of my patients tells me they didn't do anything to cause the pain that they have, I have them go to page 152 of my book.   Here is what page 152 says: “I don’t know what I did to make it hurt.” That’s a statement I hear almost every day. The following list consists of various physical, chemical, and emotional/mental stresses you potentially put onto your body, currently or in the past. Repeated abuse of these stressors causes your body to get out of balance, makin...

It’s been a pretty exciting week with my book coming out.   If you haven’t had a chance to take a look, click here.   But I’m not stopping there to help you get healthy….   Where you feel pain is not necessarily where the cause of the pain is.   A great example is a heart attack.   Where do most people who have heart attacks feel pain?   Many times they get left arm pain.   If you went to your doctor and told him you had left arm pain, and he or s...

If you've read our blog over the last couple months, you know that I've been working on my first book.   I even asked you to ask any health questions you would like answered so I could address them in the book.   So I took those questions and other health information that I've learned over the years and wrote a book.   I'm excited to say that it's finally done!    It's called Get Healthy Now for Life: A Practical and Easy-to-Follow Guide to a Healthy Life. The...

I don't get the paper anymore. There's just way too much pessimism and gloom and doom. If something is bad enough, sure enough someone will tell me so why read the newspaper or watch the news for that matter. I do like to read the sports section though.  That section's pretty safe to read. And so is the Life section.  That is until I read it a week ago. There was an article talking about baby boomers and exercise.  It talked about how exercising was a cause of baby boomers' h...

 As you can see from the subject line, I am writing a book.   I never thought I would write a but I found something I'm passionate about, have a lot of experience with, and want to share it with you.   It's something that everyone wants but many don't know how to go about getting it.   I see and hear it everyday and I just had to do something about it.   This might even be you and that's why I need your help.   The topic I'm talking about is g...

I apologize if any of you are offended by my choice of words in the title.  I don't like using the word "suck" but that's the word patients use when describing getting old. Plus, I also wanted to get your attention. I hear it almost everyday..."getting old sucks." They also may tell me, "don't get old, you'll feel like I do." I am 34 years old and if you're reading this and in your 40's, 50's, or 60's, you may be thinking what do I know about getting old since I'm only 34 years old...

Seems like an odd title for an article doesn't it? Thanksgiving just past but I am still thankful for many things including getting sick. Let me explain. The week of Thanksgiving was extra hectic and stressful this year. My wife's grandpa passed away early in the week so we drove to the Chicago area for the wake and funeral Tuesday and Wednesday.  Then Thursday morning we drove back to Michigan for Thanksgiving at my family's house. That in and of itself is stressful but when you get o...

Not many things can make me turn off sports when I'm watching or listening. But this did. Watch and listen to what I have to say. Click here to view

My life's goal is to make a positive difference in the health of thousands of people before (and even after) I'm gone. Everything I do is geared to making my life, my family's life, and even your life better and healthier.  Maybe I'm being a little melodramatic, but I hope you get my point. It makes me think about what we do, like: The community events we have like the Total Health Fitness Challenge and the Children's Health and Wellness Expo are desinged for you and you don't even have ...

I just met with our computer guy to see how we can improve and protect our server, computers, etc. When we were talking, it sounded a lot like what I tell you: "If you wait until something is broken, you've waited too long." I don't want to wait for my computers to crash and lose all of my information before I do something about it.  Just like I don't want to wait until I have symptoms like pain, headaches, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, overweightedness (I just made that word up...
