Time for a Tune-Up
When you feel great, seeing a chiropractor isn’t the first priority on your mind. But it should be. By not going for a consultation and checking on the status of your spine you are short-changing yourself. Dr. Silbert will tell you, "You can’t use pain as an indicator of your health status. Regular chiropractic care is essential to the body’s overall wellness. Instead of waiting until pain signals a problem, patients can maintain alignment with regular adjustments." Chiropractic care not only helps your body stay healthy, but is also helps your body help itself heal quicker than with no care at all. Chiropractic care is an integral part of prevention and continued good health. "It has been my clinical experience that my patients who receive regular check-ups feel better, have more energy and report having much improved mobility and function of their back and neck," says Dr. Silbert. "If I were to drive the car with the wheels out of alignment, then the tire tread would eventually wear out. The same thing happens to the spine." January 1st has come and gone, but it’s not too late to make a resolution to feel great in 2008!

Is Your Child’s Backpack Making the Grade?
As a chiropractor and father of two school-aged children Dr. Silbert is concerned that a new and disturbing trend has emerged, 40 million students carry backpacks to school that are overstuffed and too heavy. For young people the problems that can result may have drastic long-term health implications. Common problems are neck pain, back pain, fatigue, headaches, arm and finger numbness and tingling. The Consumer Product Safety Commission estimates that over 7000 emergency room visits each year result from injuries related to book bags. The Overloaded Backpack is the New School Yard Bully!
Backpack Safety Tips:
- Carry no more than 10-15% of your body weight
- Exercise
- Use both shoulder straps
- Lift and wear (appropriate sized) backpack correctly
- Consult our office. We detect and correct spinal problems in children to help avoid the often difficult to correct problems we see in adults.
- Avoid use of "rolling backpacks", as they tend to be overstuffed and too heavy
Most people recognize the value of chiropractic care for adults. Newborns, infants and children can benefit too! A more normally working nervous system and spine can help everyone. Many parents report that while under chiropractic care, their children miss less school and seem healthier than other children.
Dr. Silbert encourages you to call with any questions or concerns regarding your child’s health.
Now through the month of October, Dr. Silbert will be conducting complimentary Backpack Weigh-In’s by appointment to determine what the proper and healthy weight of each backpack should be. Schedule your child’s backpack safety appointment today! 734-285-0020

Even when eating high-quality, balanced diets, the body can still be chronically deficient in nutrients that are essential for optimum health, such as the omega-3 fatty acids, and these need to be provided by supplementation.

Alongside a well-balance diet, supplementation with the unique Four Pillars formulation is considered to be the only nutritional support needed by a healthy individual to achieve complete and adequate intake of all major and minor nutrients. The Four Pillars supplement helps to provide the best possible opportunity to enjoy lifelong optimum health and to lower the risk of chronic diseases caused by poor diet and today's stressful lifestyle.
