Surgeon General, Rebecca Benjamin, MD, MBA was quoted as saying “My vision for a healthy and fit nation is an attempt to change the national conversation from a negative one about obesity and illness to a positive conversation about being healthy and being fit. I want to encourage Americans to eat more nutritiously, exercise regularly, and maintain healthier lifestyles.” This is easy to say but who is best suited to lead the application of this message? The answer, according to 8 Weeks To Wellness, is chiropractors. And, once chiropractors demonstrate convincingly that chiropractic and wellness go hand in hand, it is likely that new patients will be looking for chiropractors much more often than chiropractors will be looking for new patients.
8 Weeks to Wellness® is a program designed to deliver on the promise of wellness that chiropractors promote to their patients. Developed and founded eight years ago by Dr. Dane Donohue and his twin sister, third-generation chiropractors specializing in health and wellness, this in-office wellness program has expanded rapidly and is now in use in 30 offices across the country.
Approaching health from a wellness standpoint, rather than from sickness, 8 Weeks To Wellness is based on chiropractic care, exercise, massage, meditation and diet. Check out their doctor-focused website at www.8wwdr.com or their patient website at www.8ww.com.

A.C. Grace Company has introduced UNIQUE DERMA™ which contains compounds that promote wound healing and reduce scarring. It may be incorporated in therapeutic programs to help support management of skin conditions. In addition to the powerful antioxidant potential of tocopherols and tocotrienols, UNIQUE DERMA is strengthened by the synergistic antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and wound healing properties of other components such as chondroitin sulfate, beta-glucans, aloe vera, zinc oxide, vitamins A and D3 and lycopene.
A. C. Grace worked with their doctors, scientists and product development board to formulate a clinical topical product that could be used as an adjunct treatment targeting four key areas: 1) help reduce inflammation in major skin conditions including eczema, acne, psoriasis, rosacea, and contact dermatitis; 2) help support wound healing and reduced scarring including wounds caused by burns; 3) support protection of the skin from the damaging effects of radiation thus reducing photoaging; and 4) serve as a major component of a long-term complete skin health and anti-aging program which includes behavioral practices, nutrition and supplementation.

A.C. Grace Company announced the introduction of UNIQUE OMEGA™ Krill Oil. This new addition to their line contains pure oil from Antarctic Krill, providing an optimal combination of Omega-3 fatty acids, phospholipids and critical antioxidants to support heart and joint health. Unlike fish oil, the Omega-3 fatty acids in UNIQUE OMEGA Krill Oil are absorbed and carried to the body’s cells in phospholipid form. Phospholipids form the structural basis of cell membranes and are effectively utilized by the body.
“Our customers, including doctors worldwide who have been using and recommending our UNIQUE E® Vitamin E products for nearly a half-century, asked us to provide a UNIQUE Omega product that they could include in their suggested supplementation protocols,” says Lyn Capps, President of A.C. Grace. “Our product research team found that pure oil extracted from the Antarctic Krill species Euphausia Superba is rich in Omega-3, mainly in the phospholipid form, and has been found to have antioxidant potency up to 48 times higher than fish oil in terms of ORAC (Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity) values.”
Benefits attributed to Omega-3 include reduced risk and improved treatment outcomes regarding cardiovascular disease and inflammatory joint diseases. Better brain and central nervous system development, improved cognitive functioning, and improved skin health are additional benefits. Research indicates that even more Omega-3 benefits for individuals will be identified and that greater intake can lead to better general health.
A.C. Grace Company was founded 1962 and is well-known as a standard in the Vitamin E industry. The company also provides extensive education about Vitamin E through mailings and on their website.

For over 30 years, Austin Medical Equipment has been providing the chiropractic profession with quality products and equipment. Recently, they have introduced a new “Incredible” product called Incrediwear. Created by Jackson Corley, DC, Incredibraces and Incredisocks are specifically designed for the wrist, elbow, knee, ankle and lower back. From the chronic pain sufferer to your most fit and athletic patient, Incrediwear offers pain relief, comfort, performance, mobility and reliability.
Incrediwear products are made with a patented organic germanium and bamboo charcoal blend and porcelain polymers, a technologically-advanced textile which facilitates an increase in blood flow, regulation of temperature, and delivery of a greater supply of oxygen to the targeted areas. Within 10 minutes of wear, Incrediwear’s fabric aids in the release of negative ions, the result of the body’s heat “energizing” the germanium and bamboo in the fabric.
Because Incrediwear products are antimicrobial, odor-absorbing and moisture-wicking for exceptionally-long-wearing comfort, they are the ideal choice for your active and inactive patients, sport enthusiasts, or simply anyone seeking the best comfort available. And because negative ions are completely natural and pose no side effects, Incrediwear can be used all day and every day for optimal benefits.
Incrediwear products are successfully being used by chiropractors, podiatrists, surgeons, sports teams, universities, Olympians, world-renowned athletes, and diabetic patients. To learn more, call or visit online. Ask about their special DC Whole Pricing on all Incrediwear products.
Affordable Lasers From An Industry Innovator

Avicenna Laser Technology Inc., one of the originators of Class IV Laser Therapy, introduces a suite of laser platforms to meet every doctor’s budget and outcome expectation. Avicenna’s laser has long been recognized as the one of the industry’s best performers, but for many practitioners the cost was prohibitive. Avicenna recognized this feedback from the chiropractic industry and developed a line of affordable lasers that also delivered excellent patient outcomes.
Avicenna’s 10-watt laser platform is their introductory model. This device puts out 10 watts of continuous or pulsed wave laser energy and is still one of the most powerful single wave lasers on the market. The next laser platform starts at 15 watts and goes as high as 30 watts. These devices can also operate on a continuous or pulsed output mode, and the 15-watt and 20-watt models can be upgraded to the 30-watt platform at any time. These devices put out a considerable amount of laser energy, and are used to treat some of the toughest neuro-musculoskeletal pathologies that confront today’s chiropractors. Conditions such as peripheral neuropathy, spinal stenosis and failed back surgery, just to name a few, all respond very well to the Avicenna laser treatment.
Now, with first-class clinical training and marketing support packages, chiropractors can hit the ground running. Excellent leasing packages with 90-days-delayed billing allow the clinician to quickly become cash-flow-positive. To learn more, call 888-Avi-Laser or contact the company at info@avicennalaser.com.

Poor posture and associated pain are epidemic in our society. This is especially evident with the widespread daily use of backpacks, which train a forward-head and forward lean or slumped posture.
BackTpack was designed for posture training and spinal health by applying everyday loads vertically onto the spinal axis via a bilateral system, unlike single bag systems which are off-axis (unless placed onto the head).
BackTpack also promotes good body mechanics, like keeping a straight spine when bending forward as when biking or picking something up from the floor.
The user has access to compartments at all times, standing or sitting, so there is no need to twist, bend or lift to reach contents. The sit strap feature immediately transfers the load from shoulders and spine onto the thighs when sitting in an armless chair, an extremely important feature for spinal health management.
A study in 2004 with middle school students showed that 67% of the students had pain when using backpacks, and only 12% when they transferred their same load to BackTpack. All user testimony since then supports these findings of elimination or reduction of pain and markedly improved posture.
Tips For Buying The Right Exercise Ball

Low quality exercise balls do not give you a good workout, can burst suddenly under pressure and may have to be replaced soon after purchase. If you are in the market for an exercise ball, here are some important guidelines on how to buy a good one: first, look closely at the material. If the ball feels slick and thin and has a strong plastic smell, it is not likely to sustain much weight and could pop easily under pressure. High quality balls are made of burst-resistant vinyl and are independently tested to withstand as much as 600 pounds while still retaining their shape and usefulness. Second, read the package carefully to be certain that if the ball is punctured, it will not drop you to the ground like a hot potato. High quality balls are designed to deflate slowly if punctured to minimize the risk of injury. Lastly, do not forget to inflate it to the right height and use it properly - for safety reasons and to ensure maximum workout results.

It might take the form of a stubborn ache along the spine. Or maybe it is more of a sharp pain in a particular trouble spot. Perhaps the discomfort radiates throughout the body, involves muscle spasms, or makes it difficult to stand upright. But regardless of how it manifests itself, back pain — which plagues more than 31 million Americans at any given time — is a chronic and potentially debilitating problem that has become a challenge to treat.
But there is hope at last for those who suffer: an innovative product called BeltLife™, that harnesses the power of precisely delivered heat to relieve pain, spasms and stiffness in the back — without chemicals, messy creams or irritating disposable patches.
BeltLife is a different kind of heat wrap, made from the finest grade of Spanish Merino sheepskin available. Back pain sufferers can wear the comfortable wrap anywhere; its slim shape and design makes it portable and enables it to be worn discreetly under clothes, whether at work or during athletic activity. The soft, dense sheepskin fibers insulate the body’s natural warmth and deliver a continuous stream of therapeutic, low-level heat to the entire lower back region including the coccyx. BeltLife was created to alleviate symptoms emanating from this critical point, where back pain often originates.
“The power of BeltLife lies in its steady warming abilities, and the fact that, because it’s all natural, it can be used as often as needed — both proactively and once the pain has started,” said Miron Fayngersh, MD, FIPP, a pain management physician. “Heat causes the affected blood vessels to expand, which facilitates the healing process by significantly increasing blood flow. I recommend this to my patients with chronic pain and discomfort.

20 years ago the BENNETT™ 100 kHz high frequency x-ray systems set a standard in chiropractic radiology. Utilizing this technology to create greater penetration at lower patient dose has allowed HCMI to become a profession leader. HCMI has re-released the Bennett Renaissance Series Chiropractic X-ray system. Releasing this series has once again established HCMI as a profession leader in quality, technology and innovation. For over 20 years, HCMI has been providing quality equipment to the Chiropractic profession. When HCMI launched the DCX Direct Digital X-Ray system in August of 2005, they made history reaching a very important milestone in Chiropractic radiology. With over 100 DCX systems installed, this technology is rapidly becoming a standard in digital imaging. The Bennett Renaissance DCX Direct Digital system offers several tangible benefits to the chiropractic practice. The first and most important benefit of digital technology is the elevated quality of patient care. Due to the range of the digital receptor, the doctor has the ability to discover pathologies that might be missed with less sophisticated technology. This provides the clinician with a better diagnostic tool that provides for an immediate and precise diagnosis. At the same time, the short exposure time and the reduction in re-takes increases patient safety due to the fact that radiation dose is reduced by as much as one third without sacrificing image quality. Digital radiography eliminates film use and more importantly, it eliminates the need for dark rooms and storage space, the processing and disposal of chemicals, and time-consuming film duplication. The electronic format makes filing and file retrieval much more efficient. All of these factors need to be considered when contemplating a digital solution.

Serving for serving and dollar for dollar — BioPharma Scientific’s super greens food supplement NanoGreens10®, “Fruits and Vegetables to the Power of 10” was rated most powerful in comparative in vitro antioxidant tests conducted November 2008-July 2009. BioPharma Scientific commissioned Kerry Ringer, PhD, of Columbia Phytotechnology to conduct this study to provide scientific evidence of the superior value of NanoGreens10.
Products used in the study included Power Greens, DC Greens, Greens First, New Greens, Royal Ultra Greens, Zrii, Pro Greens, Juice Plus, Greens Plus and Mona Vie. In every case NanoGreens10 was more powerful, sometimes as much as 2,000% more powerful per serving. It also provided more antioxidant power per dollar, proving NanoGreens10 to be the best value as well.
Dr Ringer used Electro Ox™ testing, which measures the ability of a nutraceutical to quench the super oxide radical. Electro Ox is a form of Trolox Equivalent Antioxidant Capacity testing (TEAC). Trolox is an antioxidant power rating based on water soluble Vitamin E.

Biotools has introduced their first product to help the chiropractor measure range of motion quickly and accurately. Past devices have suffered from inaccuracies caused by tilting the inclinometer into other planes. Biotools has solved this by sensing motion in all planes and correcting for any tilt. This ensures that all measurements are accurate at all times. This groundbreaking technology is available in the measure-Motion3™ and enables the practitioner to almost-effortlessly measure motion.
The mM3™ combines digital measurement and easy-to-use technology into a small, lightweight package; it uses a two-button operation, Start and Stop, to quickly make measurements. And the 0.5" digital display makes it easier to view measurements. All of this technology is packaged into a compact 6" case and is powered using one AAA battery. The measureMotion3 comes with a 3-year warranty and free calibration (if necessary). No computer connection is required, allowing the chiropractor to make measurements anywhere, not just in the office.
Biotools also offers SmartWord ROM Templates which allows the chiropractor to easily create ROM Reports that include progression charts. These templates can be used to bill CPT Code 95851 or to help meet the requirements of Medicare PART.
The mM3 was designed in the U.S. and is manufactured in a U.S. medical device facility. The Biotools staff has over 30 years of medical device experience and has developed many different recognizable products for the chiropractic market.

The Back-Huggar® lumbar support cushion was developed in 1968 by Dr. John Fiore to support his patients on their way home after his treatment. The Back-Huggar makes almost any seat more comfortable by exerting soothing pressure against back muscles and discs. It literally "hugs" the lower back, easing tension and relieving back pain caused by spinal nerve compression. Additionally the Back-Huggar helps to maintain proper posture and reduces fatigue.
The Back-Huggar is available in five styles: the standard version for auto bench seats and straight back chairs (the most popular style); the extra wide for wider backs (2.5" wider than standard); two versions for bucket seats, the thin for the most contoured seats and the thick version for less contoured bucket seats; and the secretary, which is the same as the standard version but with an added crisscrossing strap included for open back chairs.

The first company to develop a comprehensive strength, balance, bone health and fall prevention program specifically for chiropractic, BStrong4Life has added a new modality to their model; it has established a distribution relationship with reACT Trainer®.
ReACT, an acronym for “Rapid, Eccentric, Anaerobic Core Trainer”, is a revolutionary piece of equipment originally developed for the U.S. Ski Team. This product has recently been redesigned to meet a broader audience in need of functional core training. In a clinical environment, the equipment can safely provide improved strength and balance in very brief but intense sessions. The addition of the reACT Trainer safely adds eccentric training to BStrong4Life’s proprietary protocols. Dr. Scott Heun, co-founder of BStrong4Life, explains, “Our objective is to improve an individual’s quality of life by safely and efficiently providing maximally effective training. These modalities, designed for the high performance athlete, are adapted to a much broader population in need of basic dynamic functional training. The reACT equipment fits our model perfectly.”
BStrong4Life already has 20 centers throughout the U.S. which provide high intensity, measurable training that can be performed (in street clothes) in 5 to 10 minutes once or twice a week. BStrong4Life offers chiropractors with an exceptional opportunity for improved patient retention and practice involvement “Beyond the Adjustment”.

Carex Health Brands®, a leader in the development and manufacturing of in-home health products for more than two decades, introduces a new Bed Buddy® line of plush, Herbal Naturals™ products infused with aromatherapy and offering moist heat-penetrating relief from aches, pains, tension or arthritis. The new line is comprised of three distinct products, each of which feature the company's proprietary moist heat ThermaTherapy® penetration system, which is shown to be better for treating muscle pain, chronic aches and pains, and arthritis than "dry heat" because it allows quicker, deeper heat penetration into the joints.

The Neck and Hand Wrap, which features a unique design that includes warming hand pouches, minimizes aches and pains in such chronic problem areas as the neck, hands and shoulders. The All-Over Comfort Pack targets a wide array of chronic pain areas such as the back, hip flexor, shoulders and abdomen with a large, universal shape that easily molds to the body for comfort.
The new Herbal Naturals products are soft, lined with luxurious real lavender and chamomile; contain only 100% all-natural ingredients; warm quickly in a microwave; are fully reusable with a machine washable cover; and remain heated for up to an hour.
A member of Carex's global family of premium-quality brands, Bed Buddy offers a versatile and premium-quality line of reusable hot and cold packs that support individuals suffering from aches, pains and arthritis, are designed to fit most body types, and help people of virtually all ages and health profiles.

Differentiation in business is what you strive for. Your patients choose you instead of the doctor down the street because you offer them something they do not. It may be a different technique that provides better results, your personality and style, your wellness approach to health, the value you offer, the equipment you use, or even your location. At the very least, subconsciously you are always looking at what you can do that will set you apart.
For too long the software in your office has been something you have used only because you need to. Billing software is required to get your insurance claims paid and your patient statements out. You may use practice management software to schedule appointments, record basic notes, and organize your patient data for mailings and record-keeping. In essence, billing and practice management software is used only to maintain your business. Granted some software may be easier to use, more customizable, and more aesthetically pleasing than others. However, in the end, billing and practice management software is not designed to set your practice apart or grow your new patient volume.
The Chiro8000 has created an entirely new class of application: Patient Relationship Software. Not just billing or practice management or EMR software by itself. The Chiro8000 software offers a true all-in-one connection in the areas of billing, scheduling, office management, marketing, EMR/EHR, communication, patient education, collections, and human resources. Offered in your choice of 5 levels, the software ranges from well under a thousand dollars for a complete billing package to under six-thousand dollars for a complete all-in-one edition which includes certified EMR. Bundled with included software training and toll-free live-person tech support, the software is easy to use and to learn.

Many Chiropractors are using it as a compliment to their Report of Findings. It is time that you had new patient marketing and patient retention tools that were cost effective and produced results.

With nearly 500 animations and stretching/exercise images included, Chiroglyphix lets you market to new patients and keep your current patients in a way that is education based, not sales based.

Cost-Effective Financing Terms For Qualified Doctors

Dr. Patrick Gentempo, CEO and co-founder of Chiropractic Leadership Alliance (CLA) has announced outstanding new financing and lease packages for qualified doctors interested in leasing the Insight Subluxation Station, CLA’s flagship product.
“I am tremendously excited about this new opportunity for just about any practitioner to avail himself or herself of some of the best technology in the industry,” said Gentempo, whose company and the Insight Subluxation Station are now entering their 22nd year of successful operation. More than 8,000 Insights have been sold or leased over the years.
“We can now offer zero down payment leases, a 90-day deferral of the first payment, and a one dollar buyout of the equipment at the end of the lease. Depending on the package leased, we have programs starting at under $240 a month, with some of the best interest rates in the industry,” Gentempo added. Credit approval is required.
The Insight Subluxation Station is a 5-technology unit that provides a comprehensive picture of a patient’s neurospinal health. This integrated technology measures sensory nerve irritation (Algometer), motor nerve function (sEMG) autonomic nerve function (Thermal Scan), range of motion (measured with the new Wireless Dual Inclinometer), and heart rate variability (Pulse Wave Profiler).
“What’s most exciting, “Dr. Gentempo said, “is that the results from these staff driven tests can now be communicated to patients with the simplicity of a single number. The Insight Discovery — powered by proprietary software — produces a report called the NeuroSpinal Function Index (NSFi). The NSFi scales run 0-100. While a 90 on a math quiz in elementary school drew praise from your teacher, today a similar NSFi score points to a happy and healthy life.”
NASA used an earlier version of the Insight technology for two shuttle missions, something Gentempo is justifiably proud of.
“But, we know what it really means,” Gentempo said. “CLA clients have a great message to share with their community: Not just proof of chiropractic results, but proof that has had well-documented mainstream success. Not only does this non-invasive technology add credibility to the message we want to deliver to our patients, it is a wonderful marketing tool as well.”
Those interested in more information about the insight are invited to visit the CLA website or to call corporate headquarters.

The webinar programs and the attendees have benefited from speakers such as Dr. Patrick Gentempo, Dr. Bob Hoffman, Dr. Eric Plasker, Dr. Ron Oberstein, Dr. Mark Ott, Dr. Brad Glowaki, Stanley Greenberg, and many more. This cross section of some of the most influential and recognized coaches and speakers has made for a very robust and popular series of webinars.
Chiropractic software designed from the ground up to maximize efficiencies for virtually every process including patient self check-in, scheduling, SOAP notes, billing and more, ChiroTouch has developed its HIPAA-compliant system to drastically reduce the time it takes to perform tasks that chiropractors are already doing.
“Webinars have become an integral part of the process by which we can communicate and inform a mass number of chiropractors,” added Robert. “We began the webinar series to address the confusion and misinformation centering on the Hi-Tech Tax Government Incentive Program, and the feedback we received from the doctors and staff that were in attendance was simply phenomenal. And we feel webinars are an emerging method of choice for practices to gain access to education and pertinent content without added expense.”

Today's documentation requirements are often overwhelming for chiropractors. They are expected to document visits in greater detail, outline care plans, set goals for their patients, track outcome assessments and perform a variety of other tasks, all of which consume a good deal of time that doctors would prefer to devote to the quality care of their patients. Chiro-Write from Softworx Solutions is a software program designed to make documentation quick and simple, so that chiropractors can spend more time with their patients rather than their paperwork.
ChiroWrite simplifies the recording of patient visits and exams so that SOAP Notes and narratives can be easily produced. To facilitate this, Chiro-Write has been designed to use touch screen interfaces for inputting daily SOAP notes and examinations; a very practical feature since many doctors now use touch screen monitors in their treatment rooms or carry tablet PCs. ChiroWrite also offers a patient check-in module which allows patients to check themselves in when they return to their doctor’s office; it also allows them to provide updates on how they are doing with their complaints and fill out outcome assessments such as The Oswestry Questionnaire.
Softworx Solutions is confident that healthcare practitioners will find ChiroWrite feature-rich as well as easier-to-use and more affordable than other comparable systems. Contact them to schedule a live demonstration and to find out more about how ChiroWrite can put an end to your documentation headaches.

CLEAR Institute believes that the public at large will come to recognize that there are “more natural” alternatives to scoliosis care than waiting, bracing, or surgery. CLEAR is confident that their scientific research-based methodology will help bring about this public awareness. Moreover, a growing number of chiropractors are participating in CLEAR’s continuing education programs; these educational programs are now profitable, enhancing CLEAR’s ability to increase public awareness about more natural scoliosis treatment options.
While the structural approach to scoliosis can be of benefit to a patient’s health in general, many chiropractors have come to realize that to treat and truly positively affect scoliosis, a much more comprehensive and specific set of protocols, using specially designed equipment and processes, must be utilized.
Chiropractors are receptive to the fact that they can participate in CLEAR programs for a variety of reasons: continuing education credits, general information they can use in their practices, or as part of becoming a CLEAR Certified Doctor.
Ultimately, CLEAR Scoliosis Institute’s positive relationship within the chiropractic profession has led to a growing number of referrals from chiropractors on behalf of their patients who welcome an alternative to waiting, bracing and surgery.

After 3 years on the professional market, The Xtensor, a hand-held strengthening device that fits either hand, was made available for retail sale as of January 3, 2011, in 5 packs in a point-of-purchase display. Scott Kupferman, CEO of Clinically Fit, developers of The Xtensor says that chiropractic offices are an ideal place for The Xtensor retail pack because more and more patients are seeking chiropractic treatment for upper extremity issues such as carpal tunnel and tendonitis in order to avoid alternatives such as medication or surgery.
Clinically Fit recognizes that every chiropractic patient is an individual with a career, sport or hobby that involves repetitive use of their hands, whether it is a construction worker swinging a hammer or a woman knitting a sweater. In fact, in order to perform many every-day activities, most people repetitively use their hands in one direction. As a result, the flexor muscles and tendons in the palms and wrists become very strong and tight in comparison to their extensor counterparts on the back of the hand. The Xtensor helps counteract these one-sided activities and treats the resulting issues by placing tension onto the muscles that open the hands while enabling a repetitive flexibility exercise to the palm by isometrically holding the hands open while under tension for 10 to 30 seconds in between each repetition. Order The Xtensor 5-Pack and take advantage of their introductory offer through March, 31, 2011 by visiting online at www.FreeXtensor.com.

Core Products’ new ThermaCore® Packs deliver moist heat to relax sore muscles prior to professional treatment. Available in multiple sizes, ThermaCore Packs can also be used on the back, neck, and extremities to help relieve pain from arthritis, bursitis, backaches, sprains and strains, muscle soreness, and headaches.
“The therapeutic moist heat radiating from these packs is more effective at providing deep penetrating heat to tissue than conventional heat packs,” explains Philip Mattison, president and founder of Core Products International, Inc.
ThermaCore Packs should be heated in 160°F (71°C) water for at least 20 minutes prior to application to the desired area. Each product also features convenient, color coded tabs to ensure that fully heated packs are available at any time.
“We wanted clinics to be able to integrate the ThermaCore line into their existing procedures as seamlessly as possible,” says Mattison, “The packs can be stored indefinitely in a heating unit, always ready for use. The colored tabs simply provide a visual indicator for pack rotation.”
To ensure maximum effectiveness and patient safety, ThermaCore Packs should be placed in a protective cover before use. ThermaCore Pack Covers, also available from Core Products, are available in sizes to complement the ThermaCore Packs, allowing professionals to vary the heat intensity by adding or removing layers of insulation. For moderate application of moist heat therapy, Core Products also offers foam lined ThermaCore Pack Covers.
In addition to ThermaCore Packs, Core Products offers a broad variety of innovative pillows and positioning products, support cushions, back belts, hot and cold therapy, and handheld massagers.

For pain sufferers, Jeanie Rub massagers from Core Products present a comfortable alternative to more traditional massagers. These massagers, formerly known as Morfam Jeanie Rub massagers, offer a soothing, oscillating massage action designed to relax muscles, reduce stress and stimulate circulation for all body types and sizes. They do not use the jabbing or pounding motions found in some massagers. They provide a comfortable, deep penetrating massage delivered via a premium cushioned vinyl pad. Due to their in-home and clinic use, Jeanie Rub massagers are some of the most widely used handheld therapeutic massagers. They can be used as a full body massager or just simply as a muscle massager or leg massager for both therapy and relaxation. They are made for single or two-person use and can be used anywhere on the body. Jeanie Rub massagers are available in two models: single speed and variable speed. There are accessories that you can use with the massager to provide more of a targeted trigger point for intense massage.
The Jeanie Rub Massager #3400 is a single-speed massager that provides consistent massage at 3240 rpm and a four point orbital, oscillating massage therapy action. It is the more standard and practical of the two models. The Jeanie Rub Massager #3401 provides variable speeds and allows you more control in adjusting the speed, which ranges from 1400 to 4600 rpm. It gives you the option of increasing the intensity of the penetration on certain spots and decreasing the intensity on the more sensitive areas of the body.
The accessories that are available to use with the Jeanie Rub Massager #3401 further enhance the relief from the pain and tension. The three-piece accessory kit features the single point attachment for deep pressure point massage; the side-to-side adjustable double point, which is ideal for the soft tissues around the spinal column; and the adjustable U-shaped extremity pad that is designed for general massaging around the neck, arms, legs and ankles.

Hot and cold packs can greatly ease patients’ pain and swelling. And educating your patients on when to use heat versus cold therapy can aid in their wellness. But, not all cold/hot packs are equal; the least-expensive hot/cold packs are not always the best option for you or for your patients. Cheaper versions may have toxic contents and leak earlier than a higher quality hot/cold pack. CorPak brand hot/cold packs also hold therapeutic temperatures longer than some other packs and contain non-toxic fillings.

The Body Armor Dorsal Night Splint (Product number BADS) is a night splint that actively engages the windlass mechanism of the foot, resulting in a specific and sustained stretch to the plantar fascia; and a low load stretch on the flexor tendons, Achilles tendon and calf muscles.
Loading the Windlass Mechanism naturally brings the foot and ankle to a near 90 degree angle, thus eliminating “foot drop” and reducing pressure at the apex of the ankle, which is commonly seen with some other dorsal night splints on the market. The elastic connector ring allows for natural flexion of the foot and toes during periods of inactivity, and gently returns the foot to the dorsiflexed position as muscles relax.
The Body Armor Dorsal Night Splint is a low profile, comfortable to wear and easy to apply night splint. One size fits all, so you can be assured of correct fit and function. The suggested L Code is L4396. This product is excellent for runners or anyone suffering from the painful conditions of Plantar Fasciitis and Achilles Tendonitis.

The company attends to the paramount concern of the Chiropractor to identify permanent spinal ligament injuries and misalignments while documenting these findings using state of the art objective based outcome assessment peer reviewed technology to assist in designing an objective based treatment plan. DXAnalyzer Professional software has the ability to test inter- and intra-examiner reliability while the software has been tested to be accurate to 0.0023mm; assuring that injured patients receive some of the best digital spinal analysis available. Other digitizing service software calculations round up to 0.3 mm or are hand marked and generally use the AMA Guidelines to the Evaluation of Permanent Impairment, 4th Edition only. DXAnalyzer Professional software can perform according to the AMA Guides 4th, 5th, and 6th Editions as each edition requires different verbiage and algorithmic calculations to determine impairment. DXAnalyzer Professional software can measure lateral shift of Atlas on Axis in millimeters during A/P lateral bending and the Center of Gravity Line. The software program can import any known form of X-ray, including Videofluoroscopy/DMX and digital D.I.C.O.M filmless X-ray. Full color digital reports establish a blueprint of the patient’s injuries for Report of Findings and can automatically produce a Digital Radiographic Biomechanical Report in a narrative format after printing of the Mensuration Report to provide objective rationale for treatment. The software program produces a facsimile of the patients’ X-ray image and applies Mensuration line drawing analysis “Overlays” on the printed Spinographic report. Performing these line drawing analyses by hand lacks accuracy and reliability. Digital Spinal Diagnostics also provides free computer interface technology.

Douglas Laboratories introduces its newest, most potent form of omega-3 supplementation: QÜELL Omega-3 Fish Oil. The QÜELL difference lies in its supercritical CO2 extraction method, providing a highly concentrated triglyceride form of omega-3.
Using supercritical CO2 extraction technology, omega-3 fatty acids are extracted without high temperatures, oxygen or chemical solvents, ensuring that the oil is protected from oxidation, microbiological contamination, solvent residue and isomer formation. This is also the preferred extraction method as it is more environmentally responsible and also purifies and concentrates to a higher degree. Additionally, a growing body of scientific evidence supports the triglyceride (or re-esterfied triglyceride) form of the fatty acids as having the greatest absorption (compared to the ethyl ester form), significantly increasing the index of EPA and DHA in the blood.
QÜELL Omega-3 Fish Oil contains highly concentrated amounts (75%) of essential fatty acids DHA and EPA. Additionally, Douglas Laboratories’ QÜELL Fish Oils come in a fish gelatin softgel making it more suitable for patients not wanting to take bovine or porcine gelatin. They provide less odor and taste due to the supercritical CO2 purification process, allowing for a more pleasant experience when consuming fish oil.
QÜELL Omega-3 Fish Oil comes in 3 versions: High EPA, High DHA, and High EPA + DHA with Vitamin D. It is available to healthcare practitioners exclusively through Douglas Laboratories. For more information on QÜELL Omega 3 Fish Oil and to view their Supercritical QÜELL video, visit online.

The Educating Wellness Practitioner e-Newsletter Program is a unique program designed to keep your patients informed on health, fitness and wellness, while showcasing you, their practitioner, as the “Wellness Expert.” It actually arms the patient with the knowledge they need to keep themselves and their families healthy, while at the same time allowing the practitioner to stay in constant communication with his or her database.
From food choices and recipes to specific exercises, this program is a wonderful compliment to any health care practice. The program consists of a bi-monthly complete e-newsletter customized to the specific practitioner’s clinic, including the clinic name and any clinic current events or happenings. There is also an accumulation of the bi-monthly e-newsletters, turned into PDF format, so the practitioner is able either to hand out this monthly version in the clinic or to use “snail mail” to send it to the entire database.
Another strongpoint of this program is that it offers an optional Facebook setup for your clinic and posts the e-newsletter there for you as well. In this day and age, any business unable to keep up with the fast-paced internet communication world is a business that is seriously limiting its own growth potential. The Educating Wellness Practitioner e-Newsletter Program currently offers a 100% risk-free 30-day trial period. For more information, visit EducatingWellness.com/for-practitioners.

Backaches, indigestion, sore feet, elevated stress, difficulty breathing. Each year, 4 million women experience these and other physical discomforts and assume they are unavoidable side effects of pregnancy. What they do not know is that there is a simple solution: reduce muscle tension.
The Miracle Ball Method For Pregnancy by Elaine Petrone is a low-impact, non-invasive series of “unexercises” that relax muscles and allows the body to realign and reshape as it adjusts to accommodate a growing baby. By simply resting on these two small balls and breathing deeply for as little as five minutes each day, women will feel the familiar symptoms of pregnancy disappear as their bodies become more relaxed and aligned. This method will also help any woman regain a flat belly after birth.
The Miracle Ball Method For Pregnancy includes positions for problem areas and whole-body moves. There are also variations to use in later months. And the method is so low-impact you can get started almost immediately after delivery, even after a C-section. A complete kit contains 2 Miracle Balls and a fully illustrated companion book.
Elaine Petrone developed her Method out of her own experiences with chronic pain and found additional relief during her high-risk pregnancy with twins. She teaches regularly at Stamford Hospital in Connecticut, and trains students at hospitals and healing centers across the country.

This year EON Systems, Inc. is celebrating its 23rd year as a software leader in serving the chiropractic profession. The founder, and CEO, Derek Greenwood, was interviewed at EON’s Florida offices.
When asked what makes EON software unique, Greenwood explained EON’s software was built on the innovative principle of “flow sensitive” design. Flow sensitive means the software follows with the flow of a patient as they move through the office, where competitors use menus and buttons. “A lot of EON software functionality has been copied by our competitors, but that is the best form of flattery and I’m honored by it,” said Greenwood, whose parents were both chiropractors.
Greenwood pointed out that there will be a lot of change over the next five years, alluding to the government incentive program. He felt that EON’s move to a complete digital office suite several years ago puts the company in a perfect position for those changes. Greenwood said that EON will continue a tradition started on EON’s 20th anniversary of providing public service webinars to assist chiropractors by giving them guidelines for choosing software for their practice. For more information about the webinar, visit www.eonsystems.net.
When asked about EON’s future, Mr. Greenwood, ever optimistic, said, “Twenty-three years of growth and expansion, and we are just getting started.”

EuroPharma’s Novel Omega-3 Extract

Fish oil has long been the standard for delivery of Omega-3 fatty acids, which are bound to triglycerides. However, Nutrition Business Journal reports that krill oil sales are dramatically increasing and outpacing fish oil in percentage of growth, due to the fact that the Omega-3 fatty acids are attached to superior delivery phospholipids — not triglycerides. They clearly document the emergence of phospholipids versus triglycerides as a superior carrier of DHA and EPA (important Omega-3 fatty acids) because of better absorption.
However, a patented process from Europe called "Vectorization" has for the first time produced a fish (salmon) source Omega-3 product, naturally attached to phospholipids, enhancing the absorption of the Omega-3 fatty acids up to 50-fold over fish oil.1,2,3 The product, called Vectomega®, is one of the first fish source Omega-3 fatty acids delivered by phospholipids, and is distributed exclusively by EuroPharma, Inc.®
According to EuroPharma's founder and president, Terry Lemerond, "Vectorization is important for many reasons. First, all the salmon used are food-grade, sustainably harvested in clean, deep water fjords of Norway and Scotland. These are fish that are meant to be eaten, and aren't "junk fish" like many used in oils. Secondly, because of the gentle nature of the Vectorization process, the EPA and DHA remain bioidentical to those found in the human brain, and third, because the Omega-3 fatty acids are bound to phospholipids rather than triglycerides, they are up to 50 times better absorbed than the Omega-3 fatty acids in fish oil."
New Acid-A-Med From EuroPharma Helps pH Balance

Bones use calcium for a variety of activities, including bone building. However, for optimal health, calcium must be kept in balance to promote smooth, healthy bones. One way of doing that is with the right acidifying ingredients, like those found in the latest supplement from EuroPharma®, Acid-A-Med™.
Acid-A-Med provides a targeted approach to pH balance that assists bone in ridding itself of unwanted waste material. It includes special forms of calcium and magnesium plus acidifying ingredients that help the bones function properly. It combines these key minerals with bioavailable vitamin B6 (in the best form, P-5-P), plus betaine HCl, vitamin C, and ammonium chloride for proper acid (pH) balance effects that promote healthy bone interfaces with surrounding soft tissue.
“Bone health is not just about bone building,” says Cheryl Myers, Head of Education and Scientific Affairs at EuroPharma, Inc. “It is also about helping bones retain their proper shape for smooth functioning with surrounding tissue, like muscles, ligaments, tendons and nerves. It is important to enhance the elimination of calcium-based waste material that can be problematic for our heels, spine, and other joint interfaces.”
Acid-A-Med is formulated to support a smooth connection between bones, ligaments, muscles and nerves, but not unhealthy mineral metabolism and unwanted calcium waste material. Acid-A-Med is a natural, safe approach to healthy pH and mineral metabolism.

One well-known and validated method for determining the antioxidant abilities of natural compounds is Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity (ORAC), or the ability to neutralize free radicals. Third-party-testing has revealed that BCM-95® high absorption curcumin has an ORAC value of over 1,500,000 per 100 grams. For comparison, raw cranberries are 9584 per 100 grams, raw blueberries are 6552 and turmeric spice is 159,277.
Antioxidants are compounds that inhibit oxidation and remove potentially-damaging oxidizing agents in a living organism. According to the Mayo Clinic Health Education website (mayoclinic.org/medical-edge-newspaper-2009/jun-05b.html), “Antioxidants can neutralize free radicals, which are toxic byproducts of natural cell metabolism. Free radicals can also be introduced into the body by exposure to certain substances such as cigarette smoke, sunlight or pesticides. Although free radicals perform some useful immune functions, in excess or in the wrong place they can damage healthy cells through a process called oxidation. Oxidation is thought to be a factor in the development of certain diseases. Overall, free radicals do far more harm than good.”
EuroPharma, Inc. offers clinically-proven and effective nutritional supplements and natural medicines that help improve the health, and is the exclusive distributor of BCM-95 curcumin and BosPure® boswellia products in the U.S.

A new product, the Soft Board, from balance leader Fitterfirst promises to be the next advance in balance training. What makes the product so different is the added horizontal plane of movement that traditional wooden balance boards cannot provide. That added plane gives a sensation of floating on air while still providing a predictable foundation underfoot.
The secret is the closed cell foam material that makes up the Soft Board. It delivers the proprioceptive challenge of a wooden board with the added horizontal movement of a Soft Board, all on a non-slip, easy to clean surface.
The Soft Board is an excellent tool for those that wish to increase balance, coordination and agility in a safe manner. A non-marking and silent base make it ideal for clinic use and the large surface area allows a variety of foot or hand and sitting exercise positions.
The Soft Board comes in beginner, regular and advanced versions to accommodate individuals needs whether they be rehabilitative, balance-training, or strength building. It is an excellent stability product for daily living to improve agility at play and maintain better mobility for life.

Foot Levelers has launched new software, V7+, which will enhance the Associate® Platinum and scanning patients’ feet. With sharper, more detailed images, the V7+ is designed to explain the severity of pronation and how imbalances in feet can lead to problems in the knees, hips, back and shoulders.
“We used our vast database of foot scans and new technology to enhance our V7 software. Our new features will make the scanning process more personalized for patients and individualize doctors’ assessments,” said Brad Wilton, Foot Levelers’ chief information officer. “This is an exciting step in chiropractic technology and patient evaluations.”
Similar to previous versions, the V7+ delivers a quick scan of patients’ feet and produces reports to help them evaluate the importance of Stabilizing Orthotics.
New enhanced features include: the personalized pronation/stability index number and calculated measurements reveal severity of imbalances in patients’ feet; increased reliability from the updated and more dependable technology; the body assessment demonstrates the foot-pelvis-body connection to clearly illustrate how foot imbalances lead to pain throughout the body; and the vibrant graphics display sharper images of the foot to show pressure points and imbalances.
V7+ is a more in-depth assessment tool that can help evaluate patients from the ground up. The new software enables healthcare professionals to choose the correct Stabilizing Orthotics for their patients. Stabilizing Orthotics help align the feet, ankles, knees, and hips to provide a balanced foundation for the body. Stabilizing Orthotics also help chiropractic adjustments hold longer, helping prolong patients’ wellness.

It is no secret that obesity is a growing problem and according to the World Health Organization, more than 300 million people worldwide are overweight or obese. Along with other health complications associated with being overweight, such as heart disease and diabetes, the body and feet can also be negatively affected. Chiropractic care along with the individually-designed Stabilizing Orthotics can work to prevent and treat the conditions associated with obesity.
Extra weight applies more pressure on the feet and can cause the arches to collapse, leading to joint and back pain. The deterioration of the joints, also known as osteoarthritis, is the leading cause for knee and hip replacement surgery. These conditions can be prevented with the help of Stabilizing Orthotics from Foot Levelers.
Stabilizing Orthotics support all three arches of the foot to help align the feet, ankles, knees, hips and spine to provide a balanced foundation for the body. The individually designed postural support also helps to reduce back and joint pain. Orthotics are an important adjunct to your care because they help your chiropractic adjustments hold longer, helping prolong your patients’ wellness.
A healthy diet and regular exercise are both important factors to discuss with your patients to help them lead a healthy lifestyle. Along with regular adjustments, your chiropractic care can include nutritional, dietary, and lifestyle counseling.

In collaboration with Clearly Adjustable, G & W Heel Lift is proud to announce a new therapeutic option for compensation of leg length discrepancy. The Clearly Adjustable‚ Combination Heel and Foot Lift is made of the same compliant transparent material as the Clearly Adjustable Heel Lifts, a vinyl material which is non-toxic and easily cleaned if necessary.
Using the Clearly Adjustable® Combination Heel and Foot Lift, you can provide a micro-adjustable full-foot lift in a patient’s shoe up to 18 mm while minimizing forward slant of the foot at any height. The Foot Lift component can provide up to 6mm of height, adjusted to the millimeter, and the Heel Lift component can provide up to 12mm of height, adjusted to the millimeter.
By inserting a combination of transparent full-foot and rear-foot layers, the Clearly Adjustable Combination Heel and Foot Lift allows you to minimize the change in ankle angulation that a heel lift-only solution creates. The foot can remain more level, and related changes in gait and foot pressure are reduced.
The Clearly Adjustable Combination Heel and Foot Lift is the right choice for rehab uses in gait training, for fitting shoes to prosthetic feet, and for runners who want to compensate for imbalances created by running on roads with sloped shoulders. This combo lift also reduces the shear stresses of an unbalanced lower spine and pelvis resulting from a hip prosthesis or severe fracture of the lower extremity.
Clearly Adjustable Combination Heel and Foot Lifts are custom-made to height, shoe size, and left or right foot, and are available in a wide range of sizes for men, women and children. For more information, call G & W Heel Lift or visit online.

The Sprained Ankle Orthosis (SAO) is a specialized orthotic which can reduce the healing time of common ankle sprains while allowing you to remain on your feet. The SAO is used in street shoes, boots or sports footwear to reduce strain on the lateral ligaments on the outside of the ankle by tilting the foot toward the inside, thereby increasing the degree of ankle pronation.
The patented Sprained Ankle Orthosis is a firm heel cup with a 15-degree wedge shape which extends forward for support and tilts the ankle toward pronation, reducing the stress on the ATF and other ankle ligaments on the outside of the ankle. The ABS plastic cup is designed to stabilize the calcaneus and to support the ATF and other peroneal tendons of the ankle. It can easily be cleaned if necessary, and is non-allergenic.
The SAO can be used in street shoes, boots or sports footwear to prevent inversion of the ankle while walking or jogging. It will remain in place in the heel of the shoe, and does not require fastening in place. It can be used with other orthotic foot beds, if necessary, but needs to be placed on top of the device. The SAO can also be used as a preventative measure during sports activities for people who have had repeated ankle sprains; by adding this device, pronation (the tendency to roll the foot under) is reduced.

Gilad&Gilad LLC, a health science company based in Reseda, California, will exhibit Neurofencine™ at the Parker Seminars Las Vegas Trade Show in January 2012.
Neurofencine’s development was based on the discovery of the neuroprotective properties of agmatine, an amino acid metabolite. This discovery by the company’s neuroscientist founders was substantiated by extensive worldwide scientific research. Recent clinical trials, published in Pain Medicine (Pain Med. 11: 356-368, 2010) and reviewed in ACA News (July 2010 issue), demonstrate the safety and benefits of G-agmatine®, Gilad&Gilad’s exclusive brand of agmatine, in accelerating neuropathic pain recovery and improving health-related quality of life in sciatica. These studies serve as “proof of concept” for using G-agmatine in nutraceutical supplements to fulfill unmet needs for effective solution of nerve resilience and pain-free nerve functions.
G-agmatine acts as a shotgun, targeting multiple molecular mechanisms critical for healthy nerve functions including: key neurotransmitters; potassium and calcium ion channels; nitric oxide (NO) production; polyamine metabolism; and extracellular proteins. G-agmatine is present in small amounts in plant, fish and meat foodstuffs. Neurofencine, by fortifying daily intake of G-agmatine, allows pain-free nerve functions, normal sensory functions and nerve-dependent muscle strength, thus leading to a better quality of life.
Neurofencine is manufactured in the U.S. under the highest quality standards and regulations and is available exclusively from Gilad&Gilad. For more information, visit www.ForNerveHealth.com and for business opportunities, contact CEO Dr. Gad Gilad.

Herb Pharm has introduced Dragon's Blood tree resin. Also known as Sangre de Drago or Sangre de Grado, this viscous red tree sap is often found in South American medicine cabinets and is used to treat gastro-intestinal disorders and for general wound healing.
Herb Pharm's Dragon's Blood is harvested from Croton lechleri — a rapidly growing tree found in the rainforests of Peru. The sap is a rich, complex source of phytochemicals. Internally, Dragon's Blood is a traditional folk remedy for ulcers and diarrhea. Used externally, Dragon's Blood is renowned for its wound healing capability and is commonly applied as a liquid bandage to both accelerate the healing of open wounds and to protect damaged skin from microbial infection.
The indigenous Peruvian wildcrafters of Herb Pharm's Dragon's Blood promote the conservation of the Croton trees from which the red sap is harvested. To ensure both environmental health and continued harvests into the future, the harvesters are planting Dragon's Blood saplings back into the wild. Fortunately, this extremely fast growing tree can achieve growth rates of up to 12 feet per year.

The Hill HF54 is is the first and only ultrasound system cleared by the FDA for hands-free use. The HF54 eliminates the two most common application errors associated with traditional manual ultrasound treatment–errors shown to reduce the effectiveness of ultrasound. These errors are: Treating for less than 10 minutes AND treating too large of a surface area. The unique design and application of the HF54 addresses both of these common errors effeffectively.
HF54 produces an even distribution of sound waves throughout its large (3 5/8") soundhead. Low frequency ultrasound is therefore safely focused on a particular treatment area. Two channels of interferential and premod current are also included with the unit. Premod can be used in combination with ultrasound directly through 1 or 2 soundheads.
The Horizon, a powerful 2" diameter red (660nm) and infrared (880nm) light probe is available as a plug-in with the HF54 or as a Standalone. Stimulation, both soundheads and Horizon light therapy can be used at the same time.
HF54 with Interferential and Premod
* Hands Free Therapeutic Ultrasound * Combo Ultrasound and Premod Directly Through Soundhead Dual Soundheads (optional) * Horizon Light Therapy (optional)
The Hill HF54 is priced at $2945. Visit www.hilltherapy.com for learn more.
EFAC 95% Absorption

As this profession is always being scrutinized, evidence based EFAC is just what chiropractic needs — products that have been clinically proven to work.
A crucial issue for supplements and most certainly for topicals is absorption. If a product is not able to reach target tissue, then the product clearly is of limited value. University of Minnesota researchers found that esterified oils are absorbed up to 95% of the time.
Awarded a U.S. patent in 2009 for its unprecedented anti-inflammatory properties, EFAC is a new tool to complement chiropractic care both as a supplement and as a pain cream.
With EFAC earn approximately $200 per year per patient, which is approximately ten times more than selling patients a few tubes of menthol cream. With just 100 patients using EFAC it will add $20,000 to your bottom line or for many offices it will cover the rent.
Patients are happy to pay for pain relief that works and in addition will refer friends and family. And with the cost of EFAC being very reasonable, most patients will be able to afford this new evidence based advancement.
SugarSURE Proven Effective In Human Clinical Trials

Based on German-developed nutritional technology, Hope Science’s SugarSURE™ is an all-natural dietary supplement that helps maintain healthy blood glucose levels. Utilizing a proprietary bitter melon concentrate, it reduces fasting glucose levels and helps lower and stabilize HbA1c levels. The ingredients in SugarSURE have been clinically proven to modulate carbohydrate metabolism and slow absorption of glucose from the intestine.
Certain fatty acids in food are responsible for starting a sequence of events in the intestine that culminate in signaling the pancreas to naturally secrete insulin into the blood to deal with the in-coming glucose. Unfortunately, in the Western diet today, many of these key fatty acids have been removed. SugarSURE is a safe and effective food supplement to help fill this nutrient shortfall. The specially developed bitter melon concentrate in SugarSURE provides actions similar to those of the missing fatty acids. It is not only highly effective in naturally stimulating the secretion of peptides to signal the pancreas for insulin production, but it also helps to slow the absorption of glucose from the intestine into the bloodstream. The combination of these actions helps to lower blood glucose levels without increased levels of insulin.
Unlike most other currently marketed supplements which use a low-dose bitter melon extract, SugarSURE is a specially designed, high-dose, 10% Charantin, pesticide-free bitter melon concentrate manufactured using GMP (Good Manufacturing Practices). SugarSURE is pH sensitive, provides for maximum ingredient absorption in the intestine, and has been proven effective in human clinical trials.

Now you can try EFAC from Hope Science risk free. They challenge you to try these “New Generation” of fatty acids on your 10 toughest patients. If you are not satisfied with the results, Hope Science offers you a full refund.
EFAC, which stands for Esterified Fatty Acid Complex, are remarkable oils that are a major advancement to what is currently available. Besides being cellular lubricants with a potent anti-inflammatory-like effect, these oils are also readily absorbed through skin, which enable them to reach sore muscles and joints. This unique dermal absorption raises the bar for topicals, as many topicals have minimal absorption past the epidermis and dermis. In terms of joint health, the science is clear: EFAC is a new standard.
And because EFAC is exclusive to health professionals, you can expect far more refills and therefore more income. Patients will not be refilling for less in stores or online, as they can with most generic ingredient supplements, such as those that contain glucosamine.

The system provides complete flexibility to customize the testing and the treatments. The LAX7000 is one of the first units of its kind to include an Induction Class IIIb laser. The induction laser works much like fiber optic cable, in that the body receives the treatment through the light, giving better and faster results.
There are over 166,000,000 allergy sufferers making up a 218 billion dollar a year in-dustry. You see some of these patients currently, but how many are you helping? How many would you like to help?

The new 2011 LZR7 Class III Induction Laser is one of the most advanced lasers for allergy detection and elimination in the industry. This system is made to calculate negative body responses for thousands of allergens through safely exposing the body to the harmonic frequency of each allergen. Once the list of negative body responses (allergies) is detected, your nervous system is retrained through immune conditioning to not have these negative responses.
In addition to the red and green lasers, the LZR7 now offers the violet laser specifically for skin issues such as psoriasis or acne. Also, all three lasers are housed within the same hand-held device. These lasers can be run in tandem or individually. Each laser can be pulsed at different speeds for different healing properties or can be run with a Schuman Wave. With these lasers, the actual remedy is loaded within the light of the laser and administered into the allergy point of the body. This is similar to fiber optics in that the remedy is contained in the light beam.
The new wrist cuff has 8 channels of detection and guarantees accurate placement of detectors along your wrist each time. The newly designed cuff can also be altered for detection on the leg if needed. It adjusts to fit all sizes, toddler to adult, which means no changing cuffs for different clients. The harmonizer used to imprint products is now built into the base of the system; it is therefore more compact and there is no need to change attachments, resulting in faster treatment times.
The all new software is user friendly, easy to learn, and allows for quicker treatment times. An Internet training system allows you to train in your office as well as allowing for new staff to be trained at any time.

Malcomtech International is pleased to introduce one of the world’s first Floating Lumbar Decompression Systems that features a new technology for the relief of back and neck pain. This innovative system takes a completely new approach to spinal decompression. The Protec system takes the patient and places them in an upright and vertical position, allowing gravity to work naturally. Protec therapy enables a reduction of pressure upon the lower body by suspending the upper body, thus providing a significant reduction in internal intervertebral disk pressure.
Another advantage of the upright and vertical positioning is the face-to-face patient interaction. The patient can be easily taken through a fully customizable traction and stretching routine. The Protec system is designed to allow a wide variety of mobilization therapy options in a safe, stress-free, comfortable, and quick manner. The Protec system is authorized to use the following insurance billing codes: 97530 - Kinetic Activity with one-on-one patient interface, 97012 - Mechanical Traction, and 97110 - Therapeutic Exercise.
For more information, call 510-293-0580, or see their website at www.protecspine.com. See how Protec floating decompression can be an innovative and effective method for treating your patients.

Meditrac, has launched a concept that revolutionizes the effectiveness and profitability of treatment for Neck and Back pain...by moving traction therapy to a more desirable, interesting and profitable package.
Disc disorders are ac-companied by muscle spasms and a reduced transfer of fluid. Traction is known to decrease intra-discal pressure on the nerve root and dural sac. Research has shown that fluid exchange is essential for the normal biomechanics of the discs and is possible only when the spine is in motion. Meditrac’s “Traction on the Move” concept is based on combining Motion with Traction thereby simultaneously decreasing pressure, enabling fluid exchange, improving Range of Motion and thus promoting recovery.
Meditrac’s “Traction on the Move” concept, based solely on Meditrac’s patented products, promotes healing with unique, wearable Cervical and Lumbar traction devices used in conjunction with a dynamic rehabilitation program based on physical activity throughout the traction treatment.
Meditrac’s concept allows you to offer your patients the benefits of 3-D ambulatory traction, which is customizable according to each patient’s specific medical diagnosis and performed in conjunction with active exercise, which enhances circulation, muscle strength and joint flexibility as an integral part of the treatment protocol.
Meditrac’s products are compact, customizable and cost-effective and can help you provide a valuable service to your patients while growing your practice and your profit. So why spend a fortune on expensive traction units or decompression technique when you can get better results at a fraction of the cost!

Founded in 1957 by engineer and inventor, Hal Mettler, Mettler Electronics is today a leader in portable ultrasound and electro-stimulation therapy equipment used in chiropractic, physical therapy and sports medicine.
The Auto*Therm® 391 is Mettler Electronics’ shortwave diathermy for the future. With either continuous or pulsed modes, chiropractors can provide the gentle, deep heating effects of this modality to their patients. This provides soothing deep heat targeted to help relieve pain and reduce muscle spasms prior to or after manipulation.
This increase in tissue temperature also increases local circulation and helps increase range of motion in the treatment area. There are two different forms of application—the deep penetration of inductive coil diathermy or the capacitive soft- rubber plates that surround a joint with more superficial warmth. The Auto*Therm 391 features a sturdy cart with an arm designed to precisely and securely position the inductive drum on the patient’s body. The cart also provides storage space for all of the other accessories that come with the Auto*Therm. Large locking wheels make it easy to move the Auto*Therm around the clinic.

The KDT Table System is an affordable Decompression System capable of creating the necessary positions as described in the Kennedy Decompression Technique. The upper caudal section features a pivot point in the lumbar spine allowing mechanical centralization of the disc to occur. The KDT table can take advantage of extension postures which aid typically migrating posterior discs centralize with respect to their gravitation bias. The mid surface aids in stabilizing the pelvis creating enhanced patient comfort and extension/hyper-extension. The adjustable arm rests create comfortable prone postures and eliminate the need for a wing-vest via tricep buttressing.
Supine treatment features a patent pending Bolster-less leg elevation system that creates concomitant Pelvic Tilt which pre-tensions posterior elements. The patent pending P.T.R.O.S. system (Passive Tensioning Reactive Orthopedic Spring) controls X-Axis Table motion. Now you can enhance the feeling of decompression without the danger of increased force. Upper section pivots at L-5 for true upper body Semi-Fowler Positioning (supine) which allows deep flexion to create the mechanical positioning necessary to help centralize “atypically migrating” posterior discs.
The KDT Table System provides improved comfort while applying Decompression to the Cervical Spine. The patent pending mid-section elevation allows full support to the lumbar spine while lowering Thoracic kyphosis. This biomechanically correct position enables a full range of cervical angulation. Patients with a defined directional preference can be positioned to allow cervical discs to migrate centrally without an increase in muscular tension. The KDT System is only $8,995.

Multi Radiance Medical has announced a breakthrough with the introduction of its new FDA 510(k)-cleared LaserStim emitter for the TerraQuant Laser Device, to speed relief to chronic and acute pain sufferers. TerraQuant’s specially designed LaserStim emitter can provide simultaneous or independent light and electrical stimulation applications for superior clinical applications and outcomes. “One of the biggest challenges chiropractors faced, up until now, is the fact that laser treatments were not reimbursable by health insurance,” said Douglas Johnson, medical consultant to Multi Radiance Medical. “These professionals knew that therapeutic lasers worked, but struggled with both the initial purchase of the unit and determining what to charge patients for the treatment without reimbursement. The LaserStim emitter and its unique design changes all of that. Time spent administering light therapy with LaserStim is now being reimbursed by insurance. The LaserStim is FDA-cleared combination emitter available that incorporates multiple radiances, including a super-pulsed laser with 25,000 milliwatts of peak power, red LEDs, infrared and static magnetic field, with electrical stimulation to promote an optimal healing environment. TerraQuant and LaserStim are FDA-cleared for temporary relief of minor muscle and joint pain, arthritis and muscle spasm, relieving stiffness, promoting relaxation of muscle tissue, and to temporarily increase local blood circulation where heat is indicated, as well as for the symptomatic relief and management of chronic, intractable pain and adjunctive treatment for post-surgical and post-trauma acute pain.

MyoVision’s E-Scan™ capitalizes on the current proliferation of smartphones, tablets, and the use of social media like Facebook. Chiropractors need only perform the 5-second MyoVision Wireless Static Exam, and E-Scan instantly emails the visually-appealing graphic complete with their embedded contact information to their patients’ smartphones, reinforcing their chiropractic message via this “Electronic Business Card.” In beta testing, 97% of patients responded with “Now I can show my carpool friends why I need my chiropractor,” or something to that effect. Many posted directly to Facebook. The patent-applied-for-graphic optimized for smartphones includes your personally customized “Free Scan” offer and contact information. This innovation effectively makes every email forward and Facebook post an advertisement for your practice, and also shows your patients how “high-tech” you are.
Inventor David Marcarian found that prospective patients at a screening, and even in-office patients, were more likely to recommend chiropractic when an objective, physiologic and visual view of their spinal health was communicated to them, and reinforced immediately after their exam. “We’re a data-driven society, and E-Scan data speaks volumes,” said Marcarian.
Prospective patients no longer leave a screening forgetting who you are, and even better, you collect their email addresses for follow-up email marketing. E-Scan facilitates follow-up; in fact, it is that follow-up call you wish you had time to make. Contact MyoVision at 800-969-6961, info@myovision.com or www.MyoVision.com for more information.

The physical exertion placed on joints throughout a lifetime can diminish their function, turning normal day-to-day activities into unpleasant ordeals. Often taken for granted, your joints work hard every day allowing you to bend, lift, carry, and move. That is why it is important to give your joints the nutrients they need to build connective tissue, cartilage, and lubricating components for continued flexibility and mobility. Natrol, Inc. brand supplements can make it easier for patients to nourish and strengthen their joints, move free, and stay active throughout a lifetime.†
Natrol, Inc. suggests that patients take supplements for joint health and more. What if you could count on one supplement to help comfort your joints while, at the same time, help provide healthy fats that are essential for head-to-toe nourishment? Natrol® Glucosamine Omega-3 offers the time-tested joint ingredient, glucosamine, to help repair and regenerate cartilage tissue, while providing essential omega-3 fats for all-over body support. In addition to their role in supporting healthy joints, omega-3 fats also help protect cardiovascular health, may lighten your mood, and can even play a role in bone health and regulating body fat.†
A variety of vitamins and minerals are needed to spark the chemical reactions that synthesize and renew cartilage, collagen, and other joint components. Be sure to eat a balanced diet, and regularly consume a multivitamin, such as Natrol® My Favorite Multiple® Original capsules to help ensure sufficient amounts of all essential nutrients. Men should choose the iron-free formula.†

Neuromechanical Innovations (NMI) manufactures the Impulse® and Impulse iQ® Adjusting Instruments which are currently in use in over 7,000 chiropractic offices in every state in the USA, all Canadian provinces, all Australian states, and 42 countries worldwide. The breakthrough technology of the Impulse iQ was developed by incorporating an accelerometer inside the nosepiece of the Impulse Adjusting Instrument. This accelerometer senses spinal motion signals during the adjustment and in real-time relays them back to a microprocessor controller computer chip inside the Impulse iQ device.
Following the initial thrust of the Impulse iQ, subsequent thrusts are delivered at a speed determined to optimize spinal motion (Intelliadjust™ Technology) while simultaneously comparing each consecutive thrust to the preceding ones. Once maximum mobility is achieved, the Impulse iQ ceases firing (AutoSense™ technology) and produces an audible beep which lets both the doctor and the patient know that the adjustment is completed.
The latest-version Impulse iQ has an LED indicator which provides a visual assessment of the improved spinal motion as the frequency changes from 5 Hz to 12Hz throughout the adjustment. Because no external computer hardware is required, the cost of the instrument is significantly reduced. The Impulse iQ is so affordably priced that you can outfit several treatment rooms for less than the cost of any comparable computerized adjusting instrument. Call NMI, email at sales@neuromechanical-.com or visit online to learn more about their technology, training resources, and seminars.

The RX24 Quadrastep system is a revolutionary and tailored approach to treating various foot types. For the past 10 years, inventor Roberta Nole, MA, PT, CPed has been treating and casting patients, evaluating symptoms, comparing gait, evaluating casts and fitting patients. She is the owner of Stride Custom Orthotics & Pedorthic Center specializing in biomechanical gait examination and rehabilitation of the foot and ankle. This research resulted in the creation of a patented clinical algorithm that identifies and categorizes a patient's feet into one of 24 foot-types. A patient's foot-type will influence not only their gait but the conditions and pathologies that afflict them throughout their lives.
The RX24 Quadrastep systems takes the concept a step further and simplifies the 24 foot-type medical model into six sub classifications known as quads that groups together four similar foot types. Each quad has its own very specific foot and gait characteristics. These foot types include severe pes cavus, mild pes planus, neutral, moderate pes planus, abductovarus forefoot and severe planovalgus feet. These six quad specific functional orthoses are biomehanically tailored to that of a true custom prescription. To provide superior patient education, a quad-specific information card is included with each pair that features possible clinical symptoms, key foot attributes, gait characteristics and more.
The RX Quadrastep system is easy to learn and can be quickly applied in a clinical setting. It also eliminates the need for costly and messy foot impressions that are often prone to error. The devices can be stocked in-house ready for immediate fitting. For the first time, clinicians can classify a patient's foot type and dispense prescription based orthoses within minutes. Providing affordable ready to wear orthoses with custom results just became possible.

Nutra Research, Inc. has re-introduced its OsteoAid bone health supplement with the new and improved formula, containing Calcium MCHA and Vitamin K2. The popular bone-density supplement is available to health care professionals immediately.
The National Institute of Health (NIH) reports that research shows one out of every five women over the age of 50 has osteoporosis. And, about half of all women over the age of 50 will have a fracture of the hip, wrist, or vertebra.
As we get older it becomes more difficult for our bodies to absorb nutrients from our daily diet. OsteoAid is a formulation of key nutrients and minerals that have been identified as key factors in building and remodeling bone, and reducing bone loss.
OsteoAid provides three different sources of calcium: calcium MCHA (microcrystalline hydroxyapatite), coral calcium, and calcium citrate. The calcium MCHA has several critical advantages over other bone health supplements by being made of small bio-active peptides that play an important role in bone re-modeling by stimulating osteoblast formation and activity. Calcium MCHA also provides calcium and phosphorus in its natural form in the ideal physiological ratio of 2:1. Phosphorus is a needed mineral that works with calcium to preserve and grow bone. Another benefit of the calcium MCHA is its natural source of collagen.
Coral calcium provides another source of calcium along with over 70 trace minerals. Magnesium is also provided in OsteoAid. Women who suffer from osteoporosis tend to have low levels of magnesium. Unique to OsteoAid are the key Vitamins K1 and K2. These vitamins have extensive research supporting the effectiveness in restoring bone-rebuilding and minimizing bone loss. Also, those who suffer from reduced bone density often have overall joint pain. OsteoAid includes glucosamine sulfate and MSM to provide nutritional support to the cartilage matrix connected to bones.

This new supplement, available only from Nutri-Spec, gives you the power to increase energy through the glycolytic pathway via dihydroxyacetone phosphate, increase energy via liver gluconeogenesis, and increase energy via the liver and adipocyte phosphogluconate pathway.
It will decrease elevated blood pressure and increase low blood pressure as well as decrease elevated cholesterol. Electro Tonic also decreases alkaline pain and prevents coronary occlusion/thrombosis (similar to an anti-coagulant, but without the danger of a general reduction of blood coagulability). Electro Tonic hyper-hydrates and permeates all three body fluid compartments: the blood, the interstitial fluid, and the intracellular fluid, and disperses essential electrolytes throughout all three body fluid compartments. It helps to conserve mineral nutrients by increasing the kidney’s medullary concentration gradient.
It increases perspiration rate and decreases temperature elevation during exercise. It will increase maximum heart rate during high intensity exercise, but decrease the heart rate during endurance exercise. It helps to improve the performance of triathletes and other endurance athletes, and also improves cardiovascular response to orthostatic challenge.
Electro Tonic also increases atrial natriuretic peptide, a cardiac hormone that increases capillary permeability, vasodilation, and natriuresis, decreases aldosterone, and blocks angiotensin II.
It helps to maintain skin moisture and elasticity; spares protein in fasting subjects; and will supply the precursor for synthesis of phospholipids.

Health benefits: One long detailed article (23 pages), containing 172 references, touts some of the many health benefits of fish oil. The benefits include positive influences on: Inflammation, Pain, Swelling, Kidney Function, MS, Rheumatoid Arthritis, Psoriasis, Autoimmune Diseases, Cardiovascular Disease, Organ Transplant, Asthma, Diabetes, Inflammatory Bowel, Hypersensitivity/Allergy, Non-Rheumatoid Joint Inflammation, Gene Expression, Immune Cells, Fever, Erythma, Vascular Permeability, Edema, and others. (Calder PC. Immuno-regulatory and Anti-inflammatory Effects of n-3 Polyunsaturated Fatty acids. Brazilian J Med and Biol Res 1998;31(4):467-90.)
This article also pointed out that fish oil acts on receptor operated calcium channels. Calcium channel blocker drugs, used to regulate High Blood Pressure, operate on a similar mechanism. Additionally, the effect on gene expression, of factors such as cytokines, adhesion molecules, and nitric oxide synthase, can affect cell membrane receptor proteins, which alters the membrane’s sensitivity to inflammatory mediators. This is yet another way in which fish oil can modulate the inflammatory response.

Announcing the new 21 day “Nutri-West Detoxification Cleansing System,” a detox program formulated by a nutritionist PhD to be safe and effective. The Nutri-West Detoxification Cleansing System helps patients to re-energize and take charge of their health. It clears the toxic sludge that impedes them from feeling their best.
The Nutri-West Detoxification Cleansing System is more than a 21 day program – it is a comprehensive system that educates patients on nutrition and healthy choices for life. Many detox programs call for harsh fasting, too little protein or too much protein (the brain would die without carbohydrates for energy). Some recommend limiting meals to vegetables and fruits for weeks, but too much fruit unbalanced by protein and good fat is detrimental for blood sugar homeostasis.
The Nutri-West Detoxification Cleansing System includes a 24-page easy-to-follow instructional booklet to provide the information necessary to walk a patient through Pre-detox, the 21 Day program, and Post-Detox. Additionally, the booklet contains tasty, filling menu suggestions and the guidelines to maintain a healthy lifestyle after rebuilding. Also included are a 21 Day Journal for charting progress; a starter kit of the top five suggested cleansing products; a shaker cup for protein shakes; a pill box to carry suggested supplements; a t-shirt; and a canvas bag with pockets to hold detox kit items.

A new OPTP exclusive, The Pilates TRIADBALL™ Manual, written by Pilates master teachers Michael Fritzke and Ton Voogt, contains over 270 illustrated exercises and variations to strengthen, align and sculpt your body without classic Pilates equipment.
The manual serves as a starting point for integrating the TRIADBALL into workouts and physical therapy sessions. The Pilates TRIADBALL Manual is a user friendly resource; a sample workout is included in the book as a great start for trainers and clients. The manual is illustrated, has a soft cover with spiral binding and is 180 pages.
“The TRIADBALL Manual is a well-organized and comprehensive instruction book. The exercises are clearly written with step-by-step directions, goals and tips that make a workout more effective. With the TRIADBALL you can choose to have more support for an exercise or make it more challenging. The TRIADBALL offers a new dimension to the mat work,” said Kathy Corey, master Pilates instructor.
The exclusive material and texture is what creates the “dynamic elasticity” of the TRIADBALL — strong yet pliable, supportive yet squeezable at the same time. Even when the TRIADBALL is not fully inflated it will not lose or decrease its support, comfort and functionality. Numerous trainers, yoga instructors, fitness instructors and physical therapists are utilizing the dynamic nature and elements of the TRIADBALL to successfully integrate it into their sessions. If you would like more information on the TRIADBALL Manual, or a free OPTP catalog, call or visit online.

The lumbopelvic-hip complex is a key site of pain and disability. Its primary function is to transfer loads safely while addressing essential movement requirements. Continued use of non-optimal strategies for transferring load ultimately leads to pathoanatomical changes and excessive stress on joints. Metabolic, systemic, inflammatory, and infective conditions may also cause degenerative changes to the structure and function of the lumbar spine, pelvic girdle, and hips.
The Pelvic Girdle, by Diane Lee and Linda-Joy Lee, provides the an evidence-based approach to the examination, diagnosis and treatment of the lumbopelvic-hip complex. In addition to an overview of the structure, normal kinematics, and dysfunction of the lumbopelvic-hip region, this updated text offers tools and techniques for effective practice. Photos accompany descriptions of techniques and strategies in an easy-to-read clinician-friendly format. The Pelvic Girdle moves beyond a simple “how-to” book. The fourth edition emphatically presents a new model for clinical reasoning, decision-making and the development of clinical expertise. The Integrated Systems Model provides a systematic methodology for investigating the myofascial, neural, articular, and visceral origins of pain and facilitates the resolution of a patient’s unique clinical puzzle. Real case reports and over 240 online video clips help demonstrate the application of The Integrated Systems Model.

The newly-updated second edition of Foam Roller Techniques is now available with full color images and new anatomical diagrams. This OPTP exclusive guide contains 47 pages of descriptive instructions and clear photo demonstrations of self-massage techniques, using the foam roller for each muscle group.
To understand the benefits of foam roller therapy, one can look to the benefits of massage in general. Fascia is prone to soft tissue adhesions, including taut bands and knots; it needs to be stretched and massaged to maintain its elasticity and extensibility. Self-massage on the foam roller is comparable to deep tissue massage, myofascial release, and trigger point therapy. Performing foam roller exercises on a regular basis will help increase flexibility, reduce muscle tension and pain, and improve rehab and fitness outcomes.
OPTP (Orthopedic Physical Therapy Products) is a premier provider of an extensive range of physical therapy, fitness and wellness products, including many exclusive and innovative tools and resources developed by renowned experts. Over the past 30 years, they have built a worldwide reputation for providing exceptional customer service and quality products.

OPTP encourages chiropractors to discover the healing power of their Rotational Trainer™. A remarkable therapeutic device for shoulder patients, it features a lightweight bar with a foam center and outermost handles. Cable holds rotatable whiffle balls on both ends. As the user rotates the balls either forward or backward on a plane, the balls generate a resistive, centripetal force that challenges the user to stabilize and strengthen engaged muscle groups.
When used as a rehabilitative tool, the Rotational Trainer should be implemented appropriately within the parameters of the injury or post-operative protocol; this device is a component of the restorative process. And for general strengthening and core work, it becomes an excellent adjunct to other programs, offering total strengthening of the core, shoulder and girdle muscles.
For rehabilitative and non-rehabilitative purposes, the Rotational Trainer can be used while standing, sitting or lying, and in conjunction with other therapeutic tools.
For 30 years, OPTP (Orthopedic Physical Therapy Products) has been a recognized leader in providing healthcare and fitness professionals with orthopedic, physical therapy, rehabilitation and fitness products. OPTP believes that trends toward self-care, coupled with efforts to contain healthcare costs, are shaping impressive opportunities for those who deliver conservative care.

SCENAR Technology A Breakthrough In Non-Invasive Healthcare

Website: www.pacifichealthoptions.com
>> view profile
Practitioners know, and research studies show, that patients can recover up to 70% faster by interacting directly with one of the main control mechanisms of the human body: neural responses. Evidence-based trials show that, with the right stimuli, the human body is able to allocate more internal healing resources to speed up recovery from chronic pain, chronic diseases and acute injuries. The SCENAR pain management device from Pacific Health Options represents a major breakthrough in non-invasive health care.
Through what is called “Neurofeedback,” information is gathered from an area of the body which has been either traumatized or where control and identity has been lost. Information about these areas is fed to the brain and the brain responds back through the SCENAR. This device, being both a transmitter and a receiver, feeds the information back to the brain in an endless loop, constantly changing its frequency. This electronic signaling does not allow the brain to go into its usual habituation mode, as seen with other electronic stimulation devices. Neurological studies indicate that the brain will go into a major frenzy of activity at this point not knowing if the information that it is receiving is vital to its survival. This is achieved via the skin’s “C” fibre network which is one of the most important communication systems the body has for adapting to our perceived environment.
During the development of RITM SCENAR technology in the 1980s, application protocols were developed, thoroughly tested, and improved. These protocols are easy to learn and easy to apply. Specific protocols are available in SCENAR’s training programs to make practitioners successful in facilitating faster recovery from chronic pain.

According to a recent public opinion poll conducted by Greenberg Quinlan Rosner Research and Public Opinion Strategies, preventative health care reform is a number one priority for Americans, with more than 75% supporting increased funding on prevention programs. But do Americans even know what a preventative health care program would look like?
While pundits in Washington may consider preventative measures to include booster shots and a daily medicine regimen, preventative health care expert Dr. Scott Paton says health, happiness and a secure future starts with true wellbeing from inside your body and begins with preventative steps to keep healthy. In his new book, Health Beyond Medicine: A Chiropractic Miracle (Health Care Unity Press, August 2009, ISBN 978-0-9818083-0-7), Dr. Paton, a sports injury management expert and chiropractor, identifies five factors of health: proper nutrition, adequate sleep, chiropractic adjustments, a positive mental attitude and regular exercise, and explains how these factors contribute to whole, healthy living.
Health Beyond Medicine examines a health care system bent toward symptom-based care and discusses the over-use of antibiotics, non-essential medicines and the science and risk behind vaccines. While looking at the current state of health care, he offers an approach to total health and wellness through basic lifestyle principles. Dr. Paton was first in-spired to write Health Be-yond Medicine when his son became sick right after birth and was admitted to ICU. After numerous dead-end tests, he gently held his son and felt two bones out of alignment. He adjusted the baby’s spine back into place and all of his son’s symptoms went away.
“Our medical system needs to think outside the box, to be more open-minded to alternative treatments and understand that there are causes to the disorders that arise,” says Dr. Paton. “The majority of medications out there don’t fix anything; they merely mask a symptom so it won’t show up in a test.”

The products included in these new kits enable patients to perform clinician-prescribed exercises at home using the same tools practitioners trust and use in their clinics. Each kit contains Thera-Band products that patients use to perform exercises and Biofreeze® Pain Reliever to help patients stay compliant with their programs.
The Shoulder Rehab & Pain Relief Kit, designed specifically for at-home use by patients undergoing shoulder rehab, includes the new Thera-Band Shoulder Pulley. The pulley features an innovative sectioned rope that provides immediate visual feedback on the patient's progress. As patients move through the sections, they can literally see how much their range of motion has improved. The pulley anchors at any point along a standard door jamb, allowing patients to perform a wide range of exercises. A Thera-Band Yellow Professional Resistance Band is included for light stretching and strengthening exercises as prescribed by the rehab professional.
The General Rehab & Pain Relief Kits, available in Beginner and Intermediate levels, are ideal for a wide range of exercises. The kits enable the patient to progress with two levels of Thera-Band Professional Resistance Bands. Once the patient achieves their strengthening and/or stretching exercise goals with the lighter resistance band, they progress to the next level of challenge in the Thera-Band spectrum. for more info circle 100 on reply card
New Thera-Band Stretch Strap Design

Performance Health/Hygenic Corp. announces the release of the new Thera-Band® Stretch Strap, a revolutionary alternative to static-only stretching straps. The Thera-Band Stretch Strap can be used with both static and contract-relax stretches, which is one of the most effective forms of stretching for improving range of motion (ROM) and flexibility.
The Stretch Strap’s elastic design provides a highly effective contract-relax stretch while its slight “give” supports a more comfortable static stretch. The dual purpose of this strap enables complete replacement of static-only stretching straps.
“Improving flexibility and ROM is often the first goal in rehabilitation treatment, and the first step to increasing strength,” stated April Bertram, product manager for Performance Health/Hygenic Corp. “Although studies show that pre-stretch contraction is one of the more effective stretches for increasing ROM and flexibility, there wasn’t an innovative tool readily available to practitioners or trainers. As an industry leader in progressive exercise systems, we believe we have developed a truly novel stretching strap that can progress the patient or athlete through the course of their treatment.”
The strap’s multi-loop design allows for comfortable stretching of major muscle groups, extremities and foot related conditions. The numbered loops allow the therapist or trainer to provide clear, accurate instruction when setting goals and limitations. This ensures that the user does not push too far too fast. These numbered loops also provide visual feedback for the user, which validates their progress. Keeping a patient or athlete motivated is crucial to getting them back to their regular activities as quickly as possible. The Thera-Band Stretch Strap is ideal for both in-clinic use and as part of a clinician-prescribed home exercise program.

Quit Tea is a natural stop smoking aid that helps alleviate a wide range of the problems associated with quitting smoking. The herbs and spices in Quit Tea help by reducing the anxiety and stress common with nicotine withdrawal, they suppress appetite to reduce post quitting weight gain, detoxify the body, and improve lung function. Most importantly Quit Tea helps break the psychological addiction to cigarettes by replacing the habit of smoking with one that is healthy; the key to long term quitting success. Quit Tea has shown to be effective, and is recommended by professionals.
Quit Tea is used by smoking cessation counselors, chiropractors, acupuncturists, respiratory therapists, and more, all across the United States and Canada, to supplement their smoking cessation therapy. Quit Tea works with cold laser therapy, acupuncture, hypnosis, behavioral modification, and other treatment options, to increase success in-between in-office sessions.
In an informal trial of 65 smokers over a nine week period, Quit Tea was successful in helping 17 percent of participants to quit smoking -- comparably high for long term rates. It also received a high common response: 59 percent said drinking Quit Tea made them feel “relaxed,” and 65 percent thought Quit Tea was either “effective” or “very effective” as a smoking cessation aid. circle 138 on reply card

The digital radiography sensor NAOMI is a digital x-ray that is gentle to people and the environment. It does not need any film, chemicals or maintenance. It assists doctors to start the diagnosis quickly by immediately displaying the image, and cuts down the patient’s waiting time. The x-ray exposure dosage is drastically reduced, and the x-ray examination becomes gentle enough for babies in the wombs. Its x-ray images are crisp and clear.
As the doctors are able to share the captured images by emailing or uploading to a server, even a small clinic in rural area can consult with any specialists from a metropolitan area. “To bridge healthcare disparity,” the digital radiography sensor NAOMI is widely used in hospitals and clinics regardless of its size or geographic locations.
Since the discovery of x-rays by Wilhelm Roentgen in 1895, we have been capturing its light with a film. Time has changed, and the medical scene is rapidly becoming a film-less environment. Currently there are two types of digital radiography: CR (computed radiography) and DR (direct radiography). However, CR is only the transitional technology to digital. Now the digital radiography market shows significant transition from CR into DR. The DR system makes the x-ray examination quicker and more efficient than ever.
WellWave System Delivers Precise Acoustic Energy Therapy

Richard Wolf Medical Instruments Corporation (MIC) has announced the U.S. launch of its WellWave focused energy system for the effective, non-surgical treatment of chronic and acute musculoskeletal pain. Featuring Richard Wolf’s exclusive piezoelectric acoustic energy generation system, the WellWave delivers precise healing energy that emulates the effects of a focused manual deep-tissue massage to stimulate the body’s natural healing response. The system is an effective, ergonomic alternative to the physical effort and exertion required in conventional massage therapy, reducing the muscle fatigue and the potential of repetitive stress injury for the therapist and enabling the treatment of more patients during the day.
The WellWave system’s piezoelectric energy is safe, effective and affordable, delivering variable power and depth penetration to treat a wider range of applications, including muscular mandibular joint pain, cervical, thoracic and lumbar spine pain and discomfort in the hip, lower and upper extremities. A study published by the American Academy of Medical Acupuncture found that the use of a piezoelectric device shortened the treatment time for acute back and neck pain by 2-3 days and reduced the use of anti-inflammatory medications by 11 percent, muscle relaxers by 28 percent and codeine-derived pain formulas by 29 percent with no adverse effects.
The WellWave system delivers variable-intensity, focused pulse shockwave treatment to the affected area with less trauma to surrounding tissues. With 20 intensity settings and penetration depth adjustment between 0 to 30mm, the WellWave allows for the accurate control of therapeutic energy with multiple applicators for the in-office treatment of a wide variety of conditions.

Like a lot of dads returning to the sport of their youth, Dr. Michael Carroll, M.D. of Traverse City, MI injured his rotator cuff while playing lacrosse. The ensuing sleepless nights eventually produced a solution to his shoulder pain. By extending his arm at his side and holding it down, he noticed that it felt better. He then fashioned a makeshift traction device from bandages to keep his shoulder and arm in that same position. Within days his pain practically vanished. That was six years ago.
Today Dr. Carroll's invention, RotatoReliever (www.rotatoreliever.com), is a patent-pending, clinically proven medical device that relates to rotator cuff pathology and is providing relief to a growing user base.
Its efficacy is due to a novel combination night time treatment, a brace used while a patient sleeps, and a short but effective and easy-to-do daily exercise program (best done just before bed).
Key to its effectiveness is reversing the cycle of rotator cuff injuries incurred while sleeping, Dr. Carroll explains. "RotatoReliever's innovation is that it treats the injury at night, in consort with daily exercises of just five minutes."

Scientica Foods created My Calcium™ Complex, a clinically researched calcium supplement, to address the growing osteoporosis epidemic. This formula is manufactured with the highest quality natural ingredients and without the use of toxic excipients such as magnesium and vegetable stearates. These typical flow agents are useful in the manufacturing process but studies suggest that they may suppress the immune system.
The co-founder of Scientica Foods, Andy Nurman, explains that the standard American diet is highly acidic, a factor which contributes to the acceleration of bone loss. My Calcium™ formula neutralizes this acid to allow calcium to be properly absorbed into the bones, thus increasing its bioavailability.
A number of studies indicate that typical calcium supplementation may increase the risk of heart attack; My Calcium Complex addresses this risk with the inclusion of vitamin K2-MK7 (derived from fermented non-GMO soy). Scientica’s formula helps direct calcium away from the arteries and into the bones. The effectiveness of My Calcium Complex is demonstrated by a clinical study on 142 post-menopausal women. Researchers found that the group taking My Calcium formula had an average bone density increase of 1% without exercise.

Serola Sacroiliac Belt
A Sacroiliac Belt is used for a sprained SI Ligament, hypermobility, spasms and pain in muscles that move the joint, ligament replacement, and/or in-creased strength during healing. In choosing a belt you should consider the function of ligaments to establish a stop point at the end ROM and to allow movement within the normal ROM. Ligaments are not elastic, and elastic can not establish a stop point. Biomechanical studies have found that the correct tension for application of an SI belt is about what is used to tie a shoe. Within the SI joint, the only means of fluid exchange for inflow of nutrients and outflow of metabolic wastes is pressure variance. Cinch the belt too tight and movement can easily be reduced to below normal, thereby reducing the normal pumping mechanism. The key is to apply the non-elastic layer tight enough to compress the soft tissues of the hips so that the SI ligaments do not stretch beyond normal ROM, but not tight enough to reduce motion below normal. The Serola Sacroiliac Belt combines a non-elastic layer that acts as a stop point, with strong enough elastic to provide the correct compression and resilience to approximate the normal motion of the SI Joint. Together, these forces support, rather than hinder, the underlying mechanism of pressure variance, cranio-sacral motion, and resist external forces that may be placed upon the joint.

Sidmar Mfg, Inc. announces its 4th generation hydrotherapy table. The RejuvaWave FB 100 is a full-body, dual pump hydromassage table that incorporates all the quality and reliability that has positioned Sidmar as the choice for hydrotherapy in over 6,000 healthcare facilities. Sidmar created the “spine only” RejuvaWave 3 years ago and has field tested its unique, variable-speed, electronic motor control that is used in conjunction with their patented, rugged, stainless steel jet system.
RejuvaWave FB 100 offers a powerful massage, while allowing the patient complete control with its easy-to-use, conveniently located, flexible control panel. For example, the patient could lower the massage pressure on the legs while enjoying a vigorous massage on the upper body, or vice versa. The full-body table is much wider than current models and has a powerful, cervical jet that delivers a deep, penetrating massage. An electronic timer with a memory feature retains your chosen treatment time from patient to patient. An ultra-light nylon barrier keeps the body from hitting the jets, while allowing the patient to rest comfortably on warm water. The barrier also allows spray and wipe cleaning between patients.
Joe Holland, President of Sidmar, says “… the 3-year trial of our first RejuvaWave has proven it to be a trouble-free, reliable product that fits well in our existing line.” Like all Sidmar tables, you never have to change the water; therefore, no draining or cleaning is ever required. The full-body table has a built-in grab bar, which makes getting on and off easy. The 110-volt model sells for $8,499 and provides selectable upper or lower body massages. The 220-volt model allows upper and lower massage, simultaneously, for an additional $500.

Spinal Kinetics’ Board-Certified medical radiologists can provide you with technologically driven, accurate spinal ligament assessments that can assist you in determining the most patient effective and cost efficient care paths. Now you can more accurately determine the level of ligamentous instability (laxity), correlate spinal instabilities, determine the location and severity of the spinal sprain and rule in or rule out “Alteration of Motion Segment Integrity” with one test.
A chiropractor may be trying to determine the location and severity of the spinal sprain associated with many different “Mechanisms of Injury” in order to determine proper patient treatment. The same provider may be ruling in or out “Alteration of Motion Segment Integrity” in order to make proper “Return to Play” recommendations for patients participating in contact sports. This same information can be utilized to help with impairment determinations and to objectively document the actual injury.
These same findings can be utilized in some guidelines for such things as Spinal Fusion Surgery pre-authorizations if conservative care fails and it is determined to be the most effective care path.

The PhysioRED is a 21st Century high-tech wellness, anti-aging and rehab technology from Europe designed for weight loss, body shaping, physical therapy and cardio conditioning. This FDA listed technology offers clients a new and unique workout using a recumbent bike with infrared technology that includes a DVD player and MP3 player to help motivate clients through their rehab/exercise routine.
The PhysioRED can burn calories up to 10 times faster than conventional workout programs without strenuous exercise. A 40 minute PhysioRED session can burn up to 2,400 calories. A total of 2,800 watts of infrared light penetrate your skin deeply (up to 1.5 inches) expanding capillaries to stimulate blood circulation and elevating both the body’s core temperature and heart rate. This in turn increases the body’s metabolism and sweat glands which excrete toxins, fat and waste.
The PhysioRED also has billable codes for this therapy. The infrared provides FDA claims for the temporary relief of minor muscles and joint pain and stiffness, the temporary relief of joint pain associated with arthritis, temporary increase in local circulation, and relaxation of muscles. In addition the infrared lamps may also help muscle spasms, minor sprains and strains, and minor muscular back pain.
Sessions are booked at $50-$55 per session based on pre-paid package using a smart card that you slide in like a credit card. Just 5 sessions a day can generate over $50,000 in annual revenue. Owners can also generate new patient referrals from personal trainers, weight management physicians and cardiologists.

Additionally, the patient can report and rate new problems right at check-in. Once they finish the 15-second process, the information becomes a part of the EMR for that visit. In keeping with TGI’s reputation for full featured software at value prices, the entire check-in package, including hardware, adds only $1000 to the price of Autumn8.
With the addition of the check-in kiosk, paperless (all-electronic) visits are now a reality with the Autumn8 system.

With the nation’s health care system threatening to bankrupt America, national healthcare trends expert Dr. Jason Deitch, Chief Wellness Officer, offers a realistic solution: More people less sick. His new book, co-authored with Dr. Bob Hoffman, President of The Masters Circle, Discover Wellness (Center Path Publishing, Eagan, MN; $19.95), provides a blueprint for wellness which will enhance the health of every citizen and help to rescue our system (www.discoverwellness.com). “Health impacts wealth,” advises Dr. Deitch, citing America’s crash collision course with skyrocketing health expenditures which show that over 50 percent of the Gross National Product is related to health care costs. “We are all paying the bill in the form of taxes, product prices and health insurance premiums for Medicare, Medicaid and commercial coverage.” Drawing upon years of patient care experience, he and Dr. Hoffman advise readers to think of this dilemma in terms of everyday expenditures, where a portion of every dollar spent goes to healthcare. “If coffee is $2.00 a cup, that’s 30 cents for health care,” says Dr. Deitch. “When we buy a tank of gas for $50 or more, over $7.00 is siphoned off for healthcare. This is unacceptable.” He concludes that we must reverse the trend of dedicating 70 percent of every health care dollar to the treatment of lifestyle-related chronic disease. “When we discover wellness, we encounter the bounties of health and wealth.” Discover Wellness is available for purchase on discoverwellnesscenter.com.

Now there is a simple way to accurately measure your patients’ free radical score — in their breath. Revelar is a breakthrough tracking measurement of antioxidant levels to determine which supplements and treatment regimens work best for your patients. Breathe into a special tube, insert into the Revelar device, and in minutes you will know their free radical score.
“Revelar’s measurement system is the gold standard for oxidative stress assays,” explains John Hunt, MD, Leading North American specialist of exhaled breath diagnostics, University of Virginia. “There is a lot of subjective information in the market but now a doctor can accurately determine whether a regimen is working to improve patient health and understand why.”
Revelar provides unprecedented accuracy in measuring free radical damage or oxidative stress. The gold standard, TBARS blood test, measures only a single aldehyde but Revelar measures 23 breath aldehydes. Their presence and quantity is directly a result of cell damage caused by free radicals and the results provide a free radical score. By monitoring the free radical damage score over time, Revelar can quantitatively help you and your patients make better choices for healthier lives. Call The Vitality Depot for more information on getting started with the Revelar Wellness Test or order online.

Arneu Gel, a patented microvoltage pain relief gel, is now available exclusively through The Vital Health Depot. Arneu Gel is a topical analgesic and counter-irritant gel for temporary relief of minor aches and pains that biochemically generates up to 300 microvolts for a tingling, healing feeling.
The secret of Arneu’s self-generating biochemical microvoltage pain relief gel includes specific ratios of menthol, camphor, potassium and spirulina chlorite, as well as a host of natural homeopathic ingredients: aloe vera extract, capsaicin, deionized water, grapefruit seed extract, green tea extract, orange peel extract, queen of the prairie extract, rose water, witch hazel, and yucca extract. Individually and combined, these ingredients will provide temporary relief of minor aches and pains through the topical cooling and warming power. The body’s natural biochemical reaction generates a low level electrical field up to 300 microvolts to create the tingling, healing feeling.
The living body naturally generates micro electrical fields through biological chemical activities. Electrotherapy is a well accepted form of therapy for relief of pain and inflammation because it activates the natural biological healing processes. The increased metabolic activity from applying Arneu gel generates that tingling, healing feeling that has been shown to last from 45 minutes to 8 hours. Arneu gel should be applied to the skin but not completely rubbed in. The skin will absorb it and the activation process works best when it is not completely rubbed in.

People are hearing about bioidentical hormone replacement along with more traditional types of prescribed hormone medication from the media. Let us separate fact from fiction. The new buzz word “bioidentical” is deceptive. It is not an accurate medical description of this new, unregulated substance which is not exactly like the body produces.
Bioidentical hormone replacement is not natural even though it originates from yam or soy; it has been compounded and thus is a synthetic. Health providers have performed thousands of “before and after” saliva tests on patients and it is clear that there is a toxic build-up of all hormone replacement including bioidentical HRT. Women are wary due to recent warnings linking hormone replacement therapy with an increased risk for heart disease, stroke and breast cancer, and they are turning to alternative and natural ways to balance their hormone levels.
Studies have shown that using hormones such as Prempro, Othro-Prefest or Premphase and bioidentical HRT cause the body to shut down production of its own hormones creating a dependency. Hormone replacement therapy can also elevate existing hormone levels to toxically high amounts. Yet there is a better way to get both clinically-proven and evidence-based relief without being exposed to the toxic effects of these drugs. Health providers are using FDA-registered NuFem and EndoPure Homeopathic Hormone Rejuvenation, developed by Theresa Dale, ND, CCN, NP. In Revitalize Your Hormones: Dr. Dale’s 7 Steps to a Happier, Healthier, and Sexier You, Dr. Theresa Dale offers a medically-proven alternative to invasive and dangerous hormone replacement therapies.
These formulas actually produce healthy hormone levels in women of various ages, and eliminate symptoms such as hot flashes, mood swings, low libido, low energy and irregular menses. The formulas are FDA-approved and regulated, and are prepared at an FDA-registered pharmacy.

Factor Fifteen: Systol-D is a natural blood pressure management supplement that has been synergistically formulated with medicinal herbs and nutrients shown to lower hypertension, maintain normal blood pressure, and promote coronary health and integrity. Yet Systol-D has none of the dangerous side effects prevalent in prescription blood pressure drugs.
Historically, your patients have been led to think that high blood pressure means drugs for life. It does not. Clinical studies have consistently shown herbs and other nutrients to be equal if not more effective than pharmaceuticals yet considerably safer.
Factor Fifteen: Systol-D contains the natural compound 3-n-butylphthalide which is clinically proven to lower blood pressure as much as 14 percent. Other key ingredients include Forskolin with inotropic, anti-inflammatory and anti-platelet properties. Hawthorn berry protects arteries from plaque damage while Ginkgolide has been shown to be as effective as pharmaceuticals in treating irregular heart beats. Apigenin lowers anxiety and helps normalize blood pressure.

Titronics Research & Development Company specializes in the design and manufacture of precision chiropractic instrumentation. Whether you are opening a new clinic, building a patient base or maintaining the patients you already have, the Tytron thermal scanner is potentially one of your best investments. Thermal scans of the spine allow chiropractors to see the affects of their care on the patient’s nervous system. When everything is as it should be (subluxation free), the resulting thermal symmetry assures doctors and their patients that the body has its best chance of healing as quickly as possible.
The thermal scans help chiropractors to know when and when not to interfere with the spine, as well as to understand which listings are most effective in removing the subluxation. Not only is this an essential clinical tool for practitioners but also a valuable patient education tool, offering patients the opportunity to better understand their need for treatment and to actively participate in their own health care.
The Titronics wireless dual inclinometer range of motion system, utilizing an eyewear frame for the cervical tests, has literally opened many patients’ eyes to their limitations of motion. Very often, until patients actually see their ROM alongside an expected normal range, they do not fully appreciate their need for therapy.
Titronics R & D has re-introduced their Adjustment Stimulator, a computerized force gauge that, by displaying the force versus time curve of their adjustment, allows the chiropractor to practice adjusting techniques. New software provides vivid images and report features.

The foot can have a powerful impact on the rest of the body. When the foot is out of alignment, it can put the body’s skeletal structure under severe stress and cause pain with the neck, back, hip and knee, not to mention the foot itself.
Correcting and controlling the alignment of the foot’s 26 bones as well as the connecting ligaments, tendons and muscles — while still allowing the foot to walk, stand, jump and run--is a tall order. It requires a special combination of flexibility and strength, and other orthotics and insoles are simply not up to the task. Beginning with a thorough examination and biomechanical assessment that considers positional relationships and joint mobility, the clinical procedure for turning a prefabricated shell into a functional orthotic is no less demanding than fabricating a custom orthotic.
After posting and covering, orthotics fabricated from Nature-Fit shells remain exceptionally thin allowing them to be worn in just about any style of footwear from athletic shoes and boots to the most elegant pump. Nature-Fit’s unique combination of extraordinary strength and long-lived memory allows a clinician to fabricate orthoses for a majority of patients without considering age, weight or level of activity or lifestyle including those fabricated into custom orthotics by molding them to a positive cast.
Nature-Fit uses a proprietary polymer formula. It is injection-molded to deliver a non-porous, ultra thin product that fits in virtually any shoe. It is preformed with or without metatarsal support for quick adjustment. This allows you to provide the best quality orthotic backed by a Lifetime Guarantee.

True Botanica, a nutritional supplement producing company, has released an all natural product called Throat Defense which is available in Menthol and Berry flavors. Throat Defense contains the throat specific probiotics BLIS K12 and a proprietary blend of all-natural ingredients designed to restore a natural, healthy bacterial balance in the mouth and throat. The BLIS K12 probiotics have a dual function: they discharge bacteria-fighting proteins and they also replenish the desirable normal cells in the lining of the mouth, making it more difficult for the "outside" invaders to establish themselves. With Throat Defense you have a natural throat remedy for quick soothing relief and long term immune support.
The CEO of True Botanica, Dr. Ross Rentea, points out the significance and versatility of this product for both the summer and winter seasons as well as for all situations where a number of people are gathered together. Dr. Mark Kamsler, MD, a board certified pediatrician and president of True Botanica, is happy that this product is “strong enough for adults yet gentle enough for children” and that the research on the BLIS K12 probiotic has shown that Throat Defense can help maintain the health of school children of all ages.

Cran-Gyn DDS® is a patent-pending women’s health formula. The supplement combines the power of DDS probiotics with the highest quality cranberry extract and 100% natural D-mannose. This powerful trio supports urinary tract health, digestive health and boosts immune function. It also helps maintain healthy yeast levels. DDS-Probiotics have been a staple for digestive health and boosting immune function for over 30 years. Cranberry/D-mannose combination is manufactured using novel CIT technology. It combines the historically-known benefits of cranberry with D-mannose, a naturally occurring, non-caloric simple sugar extracted from the birch tree. Cran-Gyn DDS contains 500 mg of a powerful probiotic blend of L. acidophilius DDS-1, B. longum, B. bifidum and B. lactis at a potency of 5 billion CFU/g and 500 mg of a proprietary blend of cranberry extract and D-mannose. The product is non-dairy, gluten-free, soy-free, wheat-free, corn-free and non-GMO in veggie capsules. Urinary tract infections are particularly prevalent in women with over 50% of women reporting UTIs at some time in their life and over 30% suffering recurrent problems. According to JAMA, UTIs result in nearly 11 million office visits and over 350,000 hospitalizations per year in the United States. Antibiotics are the common treatment for UTIs and in many cases use of antibiotics can promote bacterial resistance and result in secondary vaginal yeast infections.

Today's active lifestyle, poor eating habits and job related stress can really take a toll on the body. Poor digestion, yeast infections, acne and fatigue are just a few problems that the body may face if a person’s health is kept unchecked.
The body's own defense system may also be affected due to the depletion of natural good bacteria levels and rising bad bacteria levels. DDS Acidophilus keeps the body in check by maintaining optimum levels of good bacteria, and increasing the strength of the body's natural defenses.
All DDS® Probiotics include Lactobacillus acidophilus DDS®-1, a proprietary Super Strain by UAS Laboratories, used by patients for digestive health and immune function since 1979. L. acidophilus DDS-1 and the Bifidobacteria used in DDS probiotics are both human-origin strains that are particularly well-suited for the human intestinal tract.
DDS Probiotics are acid and bile resistant and require no special coating to go through the stomach and upper intestinal tract to reach the gut alive. They are colonizers, so they take up residence in the gut and multiply 100 to 200-fold. L. acidophilus DDS-1 produces enzymes, B vitamins and a natural antibiotic that reduces harmful bacteria and helps to control yeast, specifically Candida albicans.

Ulan Nutritional Systems, Inc.’s (UNS) training center in Clearwater, FL, teaches health practitioners to successfully incorporate nutrition into their practice. The various training programs offered through UNS are all based on Dr. Freddie Ulan’s experience in building his own successful nutritional practice in Glen Falls, NY. Incorporated in 2005, UNS has grown to a staff of over 45 dedicated employees. Five of which are doctors of chiropractic and experts in the field of nutrition. Dr. Ulan founded UNS with the initial intention to teach other chiropractors his technique, called Nutrition Response TestingSM. His Nutrition Response Testing workshops are now given in over 25 major cities in the U. S. each year. The skills that health care providers learn in these workshops are then developed further through the Intermediate Nutrition Response Testing workshop, available only in Clearwater, FL. In addition to the tools offered via the Intermediate workshop, practitioners can also gain invaluable patient management skills through UNS’ Patient Management workshop. This workshop continues to be a mainstay of the training lineup. Its attendees learn how incorporate a highly profitable and effective nutrition component to their practice. Dr. Ulan’s vision of an army of clinical masters found its realization in the creation of his Advanced Clinical Training program (ACT), a 150-hour postgraduate-level course that shares everything that he and his New York clinic partner, Dr. Lester Bryman, evolved over decades of experience dealing with nutritional patients. Bryman, the Dean of the ACT program, is the 2008 recipient of the prestigious Standard Process lifetime achievement award. Since the first ACT graduation in 2006, UNS has graduated over 200 master nutritionists. In addition to its wide array of training options, UNS also provides test kits, lasers, exclusive nutritional products, equipment and an entire library of DVD’s by Dr. Ulan. All of which were created with the intention of helping new and existing nutrition practitioners to augment their practices.

Heart disease is the leading cause of death in the United States according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. One in four persons in America suffers from some form of heart disease with millions more at risk, resulting in sudden death for many. Other types of vascular disease such as complications of diabetes, erectile dysfunction and hypertension, will afflict millions more. The cost to treat heart disease in the United States is expected to triple by the year 2030 according to the American Heart Association.
Unisal Wellness/CPG Group has created Acctrix as a dietary supplement to help enhance cardiovascular health, especially those suffering from high blood pressure, diabetes complications and stress. Acctrix is a proprietary blend of L-Arginine with L-citrulline, magnesium and other essential ingredients that combat the devastating effects of cardiovascular disease and other conditions with poor circulation.
“Our formulation team and contributing scientists have found that enhancing and improving on the Nobel winning science of 1998 has provided our consumers with a product of unparalleled effectiveness and life-changing benefit,” says Dr. Perry Chinn, DC, co-creator of Acctrix.
“I am pleased and excited to have the opportunity to be associated with the new breakthrough nutritional supplement Acctrix,” states Dr. Robert Anderson, MD, medical consultant for Acctrix. “Each year, seventeen million deaths are thought to occur worldwide due to cardiovascular disease. Heart disease, hypertension, strokes and diabetic vascular disease are the foremost causes of death and are responsible for millions of instances of overt illness and disability in the U.S. each year.”
Benefits attributed to the daily use of Acctrix include improved cardiovascular circulation, improved blood pressure health, significant improvement in diabetic complications and a host of other positive benefits related to improved circulation in the body. Increased utilization of L-arginine and nitric oxide in the body benefits metabolism in numerous ways due to the extent of involvement of nitric oxide in the signaling properties in whole body metabolism.

Experience the difference with VerVita’s professional grade formulas of ten nutritional products and six essential oils, purposely designed to support the function of whole systems as well as backup systems. ReGenerZyme® Heart balances the vital energy that flows through the heart and entire circulatory system as well as those organs that both energetically, chemically and/or structurally support the heart. These include the brain, thyroid, adrenals, pancreas, ovaries/testicles, uterus/prostate, pancreas, shoulders, hips, and lumbar and sacral spine.
ReGenerZyme Heart promotes this balance between the heart and its support systems with key ingredients that work synergistically to stimulate and relax, push and pull — creating a healthy rhythm and function. Heart and adrenal glandulars along with a blend of vitamins, minerals, and Hawthorne berries provide cellular support and nourishment for restoration and renewal. The heart has a high energy requirement and, according to Dr. Dick Versendaal, will “steal” energy from other organs, glands, systems, and structures if necessary to function. To promote sufficient energy, amino acids and co-enzymes such as CoQ 10 — which functions at the cellular level to synthesize and generate energy, are important components of the formula. Antioxidants balance out the formula as they work to remove free radicals and dissolve toxins.
VerVita formulas do not include any soy, corn, wheat, egg, milk, peanut, nut, shell fish, yeast, salt, or sugar.

Ten years ago, Whole-body Advanced Vibration Exercise (WAVE) founders, all of them specialists in the medical, fitness and sports fields, bought one of the first vibration exercise machines on the market and discovered a new exercise method, one which had long been a well-kept secret of elite athletes and celebrities. From the onset, WAVE understood the concept and physiology behind vibration exercise, and as health professionals, they were eager to provide their clients with the benefits of this vibration therapy. They found limitations with the existing equipment, but with extensive research and innovation, they refined the technology to create what many regard as the best vibration exercise machines available today.
With patented Air WAVE Technology (AWT) that automatically adjusts vibration forces to individuals of any age or exercise ability, and Vertical Controlled Vibration (VCV) which mimics gravity thus helping to reduce joint stress, WAVE’s vibration exercise machines make it possible for clinicians to offer their patients a safe and effective exercise solution. Moreover, they can offer this solution to a larger population base, everyone from fragile older patients to performance athletes, thereby expanding opportunities to grow their practice.
WAVE’s vibration exercise machines facilitate exercise activity which is safe and comfortable, and delivers faster results than conventional resistance training. Using WAVE vibration therapy, healthcare professionals can help their patients with rehab, fitness, weight loss, beauty and wellness, and sports performance. WAVE has also compiled a comprehensive protocol program that addresses a wide variety of conditions, from osteoporosis to fibromyalgia to low back pain.

Today, more than ever, the American diet is shockingly devoid of whole, pure and natural foods. And studies indicate that over 80% of people may suffer from chronic ailments such as fatigue, weight gain, constipation and other such results of poor nutrition and mineral depletion. Also now, more than ever before, the intake of animal-based protein compared to plant-based protein is extremely out of balance. Studies indicate individuals need to receive at least 50% of their protein from plant-based sources. Wuji® Organic Chlorella and Wuji® Organic Spirulina present health professionals with the option of offering their patients a quick and easy way to whole food plant-based nutrition.
Chlorella and spirulina are considered by a number of nutrition experts to be “The Best Food of the 21st Century” and A Super Source™ for essential plant-based nutrients. Both chlorella and spirulina are fresh water algae that contain very high concentrations of chlorophyll, 20 different vitamins and minerals, essential fatty acids, nucleic acids, and all the essential amino acids for reproduction, growth and repair of cells.

In recent years there has been a great deal of consumer interest for technologies that offer non-invasive solutions in the area of inch-loss. Though many companies and technologies currently on the market offer claims of inch-loss success, few have proven results to substantiate these claims.
The YOLO Curve by YOLO Medical, however, is one device that offers the science, the support and the results that have allowed it to emerge as a leader in this market. The YOLO Curve’s patented technology uses Low Level Laser therapy to penetrate the adipose layer of the fat cell, allowing its contents (triglycerides) to be released. Once these triglycerides are released and carried away by the lymphatic system, they are then processed metabolically and used by the body for energy.
The YOLO Curve further addresses the need to support and stimulate this lymphatic process with patented technology that targets and stimulates the lymph nodes closest to the treatment area. This revolutionary technology provides effective results of 1 to 4 inches (or more) in as little as 20 minutes of pain free treatment. The YOLO Curve is effective at treating almost any troubled area of the body and definitely something to consider adding to your practice.

EnVy Pillow’s ergonomic design helps ameliorate the results of anti-aging treatments and post surgical healing, and helps prevent the onset of sleep-induced wrinkles.
This Chiropractic-endorsed pillow provides the correct head, neck and spinal support for optimal alignment. Proper neck positioning is not only essential for spinal health but is also crucial in maintaining an open airway during sleep, facilitating easier breathing and resulting in a deeper, more restorative sleep.
Young Innovations has raised the bar even higher by ensuring the pillow is antimicrobial and dust-mite resistant. The custom-fitted pillowcase is made from 100% bamboo, an ultra smooth and luxurious fiber which enhances the sleep experience, and is also gentle on delicate facial tissue. However, according to the company, the feature that users may appreciate most is how easily the pillow can be rolled up for travel.
EnVy pillow is available from select chiropractors, wellness providers, plastic surgeons, and dermatologists throughout North America. It retails for $199.00 Canadian. Visit online or email info@envypillow.com to learn more.
