Hangovers are the result of chemical toxicity overloading our body's ability to function properly.
To adapt in the short term, subluxations happen. So could adjustments help recover quicker or is it just chemical and it'll take however long it takes to feel better?
Well, it's all in the timing. If you are still intoxicated, your body probably needs the subluxation as an adaptive tool.
But after that, it's all improved function. And that usually means feeling better! Here is the story:

Slak Chiro Anniversary
Happy Anniversary to Us!
We are 21! Although I like the idea of being able to serve wine with your adjustment, etiquette would require me to share a toast with you. That would definitely end my adjusting day. Plus, the board of health might have something to say about it too. So instead of wine, we'll serve something even more special and delicious: adjustments!
On Friday November 7, 2008, we will host a $21 adjustment day. Actually, all our services will be $21 each. Adjustment? $21. Scan? $21. Reactivation exam? $21. New patient exam? $21. X-rays? $21. Nutrition or exercise consult? $21. Laser? $21. Woohoo!!!
I count on seeing you that day and please tell your friends and family to make an appointment especially if they have never been here or if they dropped out a while back.
Have a Perfect Day!

Wellness Care Pays Off
You do the Math.
Anthony is a healthy, very active young professional. He has a successful career, a house and a dog. He races mountain bikes and spends weeks scuba diving in exotic tropical waters. His vision of health extends to the concept of wellness. In other words, he has realized that a) what you do today dictates your future health and wellbeing and b) it doesn’t make sense to settle for feeling good when health-wise, you can be great and consistently get better and better, do and have it all. All this means that smart choices today will keep rewarding you for years to come. That includes regular, long-term chiropractic care.
Of course, life happens, and Anthony has occasional run-ins with the realities of the laws of nature (especially gravity). So it turned out that a few weeks ago, Anthony shoveled snow. And was stressed out. And shoveled some more. And lifted children, a lot. Next day, his back hurt. You know the kind of hurt that makes you wonder if you can make it to the bathroom because the pain is so severe. That kind of hurt. Worse because Anthony had a similar experience 10 years ago (in his pre-chiropractic days) and had to spend 8 weeks in a drug-induced fog. He was concerned about what was in store for him. I would have been also if that was my history.
So, into the office crawls Anthony, wincing, crooked and tender, looking for adjustment. Since Anthony gets checked regularly, it takes just a couple of visits to get him back on track and before you know it, he has resumed his normal activities. This is one of the most powerful benefits of regular care that Linda and I have observed through our career; getting back up to speed takes our patients just a fraction of the time that it takes people who are not adjusted before they get hurt. In essence, chiropractic care has a protective effect. For Anthony, it was 1 week of dysfunction and pain versus eight wasted weeks of agony. You do the math.
Knowing that stuff will happen in life, this is equivalent to driving a car knowing that some day, you’ll have an accident. Would you rather take your chances in a cardboard car or would you rather be in a Volvo when it happens? Regular chiropractic care is your health care Volvo.
OK, let’s get real, are you letting your spouse and kids tool around in a cardboard car or are you making sure they have Volvo health strength and proactive protection?
Special new patient offer coming during our Stress Relief Week (see e-newsletter). Call now.

Changing Lives
Changing Lives
While having lunch with my friend Mark and the conversation inevitably turned to the work Dr. Linda and I do. Mark is a regular reader of my blog (drslak.blogspot.com) and he remarked on the wonderful enhancement Dr. Linda’s new knowledge and skills are to the practice. Mark is a very keen observer and I frequently seek his insight.
After I recounted some recent “miracles”, he said that our business is really about changing lives. That was an ah-ah moment for me. Indeed, we are not about bad back and neck cricks. We’re not about PMS or enuresis, asthma or ADHD. All these are great to help but they what we do. Who we are, what we are about, is serving people, more specifically, changing people’s lives.
We change lives when we enable your body to function at its magnificent best. Lives change because pain goes away, symptoms abate and wellbeing is restored. Quality of life is more than a concept in our office; it’s the end product of our work. We change lives because it is not only the people we put our hands on who benefit but also their family members. Think about the shift in responsibilities and duties when a Mom or Dad isn’t well, then gets better. How about the quality of life of entire families when a child gets well and sleeps?
We change your life for the better, step by step, over time. In this Holiday season, do you know people whose lives could be better? Give them the gift of health, bring them to our office. We’ll change their lives.
