Health's Best Kept Secret: THE CHIROPRACTIC LIFESTYLE

Hello friends and neighbors. I hope 2010 has been good to you. But if not, I have a secret that will make 2011 be your best year ever!




Maybe the whole idea of getting adjusted by a chiropractor freaks you out. I know it did for me. But don’t let your fear of chiropractors prevent you from incorporating chiroprapractic’s gift to the health profession:

THE CHIROPRACTIC LIFESTYLE.

Have you ever seen people that just seem to have something special about them? You can’t quite put your finger on it, but you just get a good vibe when your near them. Their skin is clear, they have good posture, they look younger than they are, they look well rested, they seem more athletic, and they don’t look stiff. Come to think of it, you notice they don’t get colds that often and they are generally in a better mood than most people. I see people like this come into my practice every day. I’m not saying its the adjustment that made them so radiant and full of life, but I will tell you that living the chiropractic lifestyle will put you on the right coarse for a healthy life. On the other hand, I see other people that have every excuse in the world why not to see a chiropractor. These people generally are the same ones that put everyone else in their lives first before themselves. They are the ones who will give everyone the good toast but they will take the burned one. They are the ones that are generally not good to themselves and many of these individuals don’t love themselves.



Before we go any further you need to know this. Medicine is NOT synonymous with the Chiropractic Lifestyle. Medicine deals with sickness and disease while chiropractic deals with health and prevention. Medicine is reactive while chiropractic is proactive. Medicine is about giving you a pill, potion or a shot. If that doesn’t work they start cutting things off you. Chiropractic is about a natural way of healing that believes your body can heal itself from “Above Down and Inside Out”. At this point, you might think I am anti-allopathic. That’s not true at all. In fact, in my offices we incorporate orthopedics, neurology, pain management, and podiatry.

What are the benefits to you and your family by adopting the Chiropractic Lifestyle? Imagine being in an elite group of the top ten percent of the nation. In that group you will find most professional atheletes and a large percentage of movie stars and entertainers. “Well, Dr. Salse, the only reason those hoity-toity people go to chiropractor is ’cause they have the money”. Not true. Many of them come in to chiropractic offices just like other patients. They have health insurance. But even if you don’t, chiropractic is relatively inexpensive and affordable compared to medicine.

Many people who live the “The Chiropractic Lifestyle” have some things in common.  Some of these are  eating healthy, daily exercise, connecting with your spirituality, drinking plenty of water, staying away from processed foods, avoiding tobacco, alcohol, and drugs, getting massages, wearing orthotics if needed, working on your balance and posture. Last but not least is getting your spine adjusted.

I encourage you to find a great DC in your area and make 2011 the year you add chiropractic to your lifestyle! Many chiropractors offer affordable family wellness plans. A wellness plan can include periodic adjustments, attendance to health workshops, and one-on-one consultations on nutrition and exercise. Make sure you get a referral from a friend or family member before choosing a chiropractor.

This blog will close 2010 my friends. Together let’s commit to taking charge of our health and making 2011 the healthiest, happiest year ever!!!!

Wives, Save Your Husbands From Themselves

Who dies sooner, men or women? 

If you answered men you are right.  Men die nearly ten years earlier than women.  My female patients are the absolute best.  They come in when they are having a problem before it gets out of hand.  My male patients on the other hand wait until they can barely move before coming in.  I call it the "Macho Mentality."  Some are so bad, they are literally crying and on their knees with so much pain.  The six most common words I hear from them are, "I THOUGHT IT WOULD GO AWAY." 

Some people say its stress that kills men sooner, some say estrogen protects women and helps them live longer, I say that those statistics may or may not be true.  However, in addition, what I see clinically is a  cultural conditioning in which men feel they don't have to go to the doctor for anything.  Little boys are taught to be tough and not to cry.  Somehow us men translated that into:  "seeing doctors is a sign of weakness."

Did you know men live six years longer when they are married as opposed to their single friends?  I believe its because the wives literally drag their men to the doctors for checkups.  The male mentality is, "I'm a guy so I'll just tough it out until I get better", or "If it ain't broke, don't fix it", or "I don't want to know what's wrong."  Probably the worst thinking comes from men who say, "I'm fine, nothing's wrong....its just a little numbness down my right arm....I'll be okay."  There is almost a sense of pride in these men.  They come in saying, "I haven't been to the doctors in five years", and they're actually proud of that fact. 

I recently had a middle aged woman come into the office for a consultation accompanied by her husband.  The man's wife had been complaining of severe back pain for an entire year.  During the consultation he said, "All she does is whine and complain about her back.  I told her to tough it out like me."  After taking her x-ray, I was horrified at what I saw.  Her spine was fractured at L5/S1 which is the base of the lumbar spine.  It's a condition known as a spondylolytic spondylosisthesis and on a one to four grading she was a four!  I immediately referred her to an orthopedist who got her into surgery right away.  It took fourteen hours of surgery to fix her problem.  If it was up to her husband, she never would have sought help for her back.

In conclusion, I have a message to the males of the human race:  If you want to live a long, healthy and happy life, LISTEN TO YOUR WIFE WHEN SHE TELLS YOU TO GO TO THE DOCTOR!   The first step is to make an appointment with your family medical doctor and get annual health check-ups.  Then call your dentist and get your teeth checked every six months.  Finally, make sure you visit a reputable and well-known chiropractor in your area so that you don't suffer from nerve interference which is known as vertebral subluxation.  In fact, one single subluxation can cause decades of poor health.  Many times it is easy to correct the problem with proper chiropractic care.

Takes care of everyone else but themselves, holds all their stress inside them, too busy to exercise, eats too much fastfood or junk food that only they know about, overweight, doesn't want to know what's wrong with them, consciously or unconsciously doesn't really love themselves and therefor... feel they don't deserve to do something healthy like getting adjusted regularly. Does any of this sound familiar? If so, I encourage you to take action and call a local chiropractor in your area. This is the first step to taking back your health!!!! See More

Monrovia, CA - If you have ever thought about going to a chiropractor but you've hesitated because you weren't sure it was right for you, please read on...My name is Dr. David Salse, and recently I decided to make a special offer to anyone in the San Gabriel Valley area who's currently suffering from physical pain and would like fast, simple relief.I've agreed to "give away" (to anybody who asks for it) $215 worth of my services for only $34.95...and there is absolutely no obligation on your part to ever come in again. It's a very unique opportunity to see for yourself, on your own terms, if a visit to a skilled chiropractor can help you or not. I'm calling it my "Community Appreciation Month" (October 1st through October 31st) and it's my way of saying "Thank You" to the people of the San Gabriel Valley for making my practice so successful over the last sixteen years.

I've helped literally thousands and thousands of people feel better and live healthier, more productive lives through chiropractic care. In fact, I'll bet you know someone I've treated - my most satisfied patients include well-known local business owners, other doctors, nurses, athletes, teachers and TV personalities. Now I would like to introduce even more people to the many benefits my profession has to offer.

For instance, chiropractic care may be able to help you if you're suffering from any of the following condition...- Tension Headaches- Lower-back pain- Neck pain- Numbness and tingling- Constant fatigue: lack of energy- TMJ- Carpal Tunnel Syndrome- Muscle spasms, sprains and strains- Pinched nerves as well as a whole host of other health problems that have not been able to get relief from.

Fortunately, if you're suffering from any of these problems or similar afflictions right now, they may be relieved or eliminated by proper chiropractic treatment (commonly called "adjustments"). So, if you've always wanted to "check out" chiropractic care and see what it can do for you, now is the best time to do so because...For one month only, $34.95 will get you all of the services I normally charge my new patients up to $215 for.What does this offer include? EVERYTHING! Take a look at what you'll get: 1.) An in-depth consultation about your health and well-being. 2.) A complete chiropractic spinal examination 3.) Up to four problem-revealing spinal x-rays (if needed). That alone would normally cost you at least $140 (but which e included in this amazing $34.95 offer. 4.) An analysis of your x-rays and spinal exam results so I can see what needs to be done to help relieve your problem...5.) Answers to all your most probing questions about chiropractic care and what it can do for you...6.) SPECIAL BONUS! For the very first time, this offer includes your first chiropractic adjustment at no additional charge if you refer an adult friend or family member.

The appointment won't take long at all and when you leave you will feel like your part of our family. You get all this attention without any obligation on your part whatsoever. It's simply your chance to see what a skilled chiropractor can do to solve or help your particular problem or pain. Before you come in though, you'll probably want to know a little about me. So be sure to go to the "About the Doctor" on my website or just google my name, "Dr. David Salse". Also, take the time to read through just some of our testimonials on this site.

Limited Time Offer! Obviously, with an offer like this, I can't afford to do it for very long. In addition, I can only accept a limited number of patients. If you would like to take me up on my offer and see what chiropractic can do for you, all you have to do is call my office and set up an appointment for this special offer. Just give me a day to analyze your tests, and I'll tell you what needs to be done to help you with your problem.

Of course, its completely up to you if you want to come in again. There certainly won't be any hard feelings if you don't...I'll respect your decision on this. If your problem is not appropriate for chiropractic care, I'll tell you so.

The number to call is: (626) 256-3422

I can only handle a certain number of appointments, of course, and I expect to get flooded with calls, so I suggest you call right away, before you put this announcement aside. My assistant Clairessa will be at the phones from 9:00 am to 6:00 pm Monday through Friday - just tell her you want to come in for the Online Internet Special.


Thank you very much for reading this and I look forward to helping you get rid of your pain so you can start living a healthier, more productive life.
