Self-care Equals Health Care And Overall Wellness Says Vancouver Orthotics
Hi everybody. Dr. Michael Horowitz here, Your Friendly Neighborhood Chiropractor and owner of Vancouver Orthotic Clinics.
February is here and with it we welcome Cupid and Valentine’s Day. There’s NO better time than now to remember to lavish some of that love on ourselves, too!
Self-love and Self-care are not selfish. They lead you to better mood and better health. You’re going to find the techniques to help you take care of yourself surprisingly familiar. It’s a matter of practicing some of the proven and effective habits as a start:
- Eat Well
- Get quality rest and enough relaxation
- Enjoy a warm bath
- Listen to your favorite music
- Try aromatherapy or
- Pause for deep breath meditation
What about putting a relaxation massage on your personal care list, or a Chiropractic Adjustment. You can always try some light stretching or mindful meditation which you can do anytime, anywhere in your lifestyle and day.
Whichever you chose to do: Remember that Self-Care isn’t Selfish, it’s actually Self-Love and it makes for Great Health-Care! We don’t often focus on our own physical and mental health and wellbeing as the starting point to great health. So please consider this your Friendly Reminder!
This month we feature tips and information on:
1) Foot Pain, Discomfort and Fatigue
2) Perfect Posture
Click and find the links to those posts on our website to help relieve pain, discomfort and improve posture, too.
As holistic care providers, our team look at your whole body. So, all new patients at our office start off with a Chiropractic Postural and Spine Evaluation.
The emphasis is on your alignment, symmetry and mobility. Since everyone holds stress differently; you deserve a unique set of recommendations to help support your needs.
We follow a 5-Step process towards Perfect Posture and Getting out of Pain.
1) AWARENESS: of how you use tour bodies; how you sit, lift and sleep
2) Focus on your feet, your footwear and the potential need for custom orthotics
3) Spinal alignment and the benefits of chiropractic spine support
4) The importance of keeping physically strong and active doing the activities you most enjoy
5) Maintaining your flexibility with stretching, possibly yoga and massage.
Negotiating life requires daily self-care. Foot pain alone is a common symptom especially as we aim for our 10,000 steps a day. So, as we are constantly in motion walking and standing things happen. This is aggravated with poor footwear selection and inefficient shock-absorption from the ground up.
If you or someone you know is experiencing foot pain, discomfort and fatigue: please refer them to one of our offices. They may be looking for a Diagnosis and an effective form of treatment. With a new year they may have a fresh slate of extended health benefits to support their health goals.
At Vancouver Orthotic Clinics our goal is to support our patients with optimum biomechanics from the ground up. Since our feet are the foundation to great posture and alignment; we offer Foot Exams using an Electronic Gait Scan and the newest 3D Foot Scan technology. You may be a candidate for better foot alignment, balance, stability and overall all shock-absorption. All of this care; from head to toe; may also help improve your posture and alignment.
February reminds us that it’s a great time to show our mind and bodies the love they deserve. LOVE yourself. LOVE your spine and LOVE your Feet!
