Going through a time of STRESS?

by

By. Terry Weyman

Stress is part of life, its just the way it is. HOWEVER, when the flood waters get a little high, sometimes we need a little help. Stress comes in many forms. And its effects are so strong that even the stress of others can have an impact on your well-being. The American Psychological Association reports that “only 37 percent of Americans feel they are actually doing an excellent of very good job of managing their stress”. Not only can Stress be emotional, it can also be caused by over training!

What are you doing to help your stress? We all have read about stress relieving techniques, from mediation, positive self talk, breathing and changing your environment. However, what are you doing during the stressful times to just get by until the light at the end of the tunnel appears? Here are some quick tips to help.

Supplements to take: 

Supplements are just that. They SUPPLEMENT the diet when more is needed. If you are building a house and its time to put on the roof, do you want a few tiles to show up at a time or do you want truck loads to show up when they are needed? The average American diet is CRAP. We are not getting the nutrients necessary for daily survival most of the time, let alone in times of stress. So, when the body needs more, give it more. The basics are:

  1. Vitamin C
  2. B-Complex
  3. Omega #
  4. Valerian (if sleep is a problem)
  5. Passion Flower
Get your supplements from your Doctor of Chiropractic. They carry only top quality, Professional strength Supplements that come from Companies that watch for cross contamination and purity/potency. Most top companies even have a “Stress formula” that has most of the above ingredients in one pill.
Exercises:

Talk to your Doctor of Chiropractic, Your MD, your PT or your personal trainer for basic stretches that can be done at your desk and place of work. Change blood flow and get things moving better.
Therapeutic devises:

There are battery powered devices on the market such as the Marc Pro (www.marcpro.com) that are FDA proven for tissue recovery! Recover tissue mean increased blood flow. Increased blood flow, means good nutrients in, waist products out. (use the promo code: GOTCSI to save some money-even more stress reduction)
Chiropractic Care

Muscle attaches to bone. When the muscles get tight, they pull on the joints they are attached to, plain and simple. By getting adjusted, the fixated joints are moved and loosened. By decreasing the joint fixation in a proper, non rotational manner, the tension on the muscle is relieved, increasing blood flow and decreasing internal stress.
All these simple tips can be done on the busiest of schedules. Take time to take care of yourself. God only gave you one body and our time on this Earth is limited so live life to the Max.

For recovery: Ice, Heat or …? The Marc Pro

by

This months tip, “when to use the Marc Pro” stems from a question asked of me yesterday from a patient of mine who owns one. He is a Hockey player and was asking when is the best time to use it. I asked him when does he use it now? He said “when I think about it, which is once a week”. 

So here is my tip. If you worked out once a week, would you get stronger? If you focused on your job once a week, would that help you become more successful? No. then how can using the Marc Pro once a week help your body recover better, faster, stronger?
The answer, it can’t. So when do you use the Marc Pro? Instead of ice or heat, use the Marc Pro. After activity, use the Marc Pro. After long plane flights, long drives, long day at the desk-Use the Marc Pro.
The Marc Pro creates blood flow, using it often creates, Angiogenisis (creation or addition of more capillaries). More blood flow allows the body to detox and new nutrients to flood the muscles and surrounding tissue. Pitchers are using the Marc Pro between innings to keep their shoulders healthy and recovered so they can maintain a good showing on the mound. Cross Fit athletes are using the Marc Pro to recover between WODs. Cyclist are using the Marc Pro after their rides to refresh their legs.
Since its battery powered use it on the drive home, at the office and or on the side lines. For you Motocrossers and rock climbers, use it on your forearms daily to develop more Capillaries to help decrease arm pump. 
When you think about it, with the promo code: GOTCSI, the unit costs 50+ a month (until paid for). This is less expensive than most hour massages, AND you can use it all day everyday. Don’t let your unit collect dust, use it to become a better and more successful athlete! Tell a friend.
