Tuesday, 01 June 2004 00:00 After a recent ICPA E-Newsletter went out discussing the Webster technique, I received an e-mail from Ann Sommers, a midwife in Southern California. Her comments were supportive and enthusiastic about her experiences with Doctors of Chiropractic in her 11 years as a midwife and doula.

A lot of talk about inheriting conditions. Lately I’ve heard a lot of people talk about their conditions and push them to the side by saying something like “well, my mom had it too. It’s just genetic.” It’s understandable to come to that conclusion, but even so, why wouldn’t you want to do anything about it?  Before I began working here at Active Life Health and Wellness, I used to think and feel the same way

“……Through the years I have fallen enough times to cover all ten fingers and toes. The worst time was when our rental apartment flooded and I was carrying an armful of wet towels across a tile floor and slipped and fell flat on my back – cut my head,  my teeth and laid there alone wondering if I would even be able to get up

Having a baby is one of the most wondrous, natural events in the world!  If you are pregnant, you have some of the most important decisions of your life ahead of you.  Be sure you gather all the information you can to make informed health decisions for you and your baby.

This is a great cartoon. You have to realize that you need a bit of humor in your life

I guess I would say …if you’ve found this site, you’ve found a good chiropractor. As a Chiropractor in Costa Mesa for over 22 years in private practice I have the experience and the tools needed to get you the relief you seek. Today is Fathers Day and I just spoke to my father.

well maybe he didn’t really say me specifically, but he did say that he believes and the research proves that Chiropractic is a great option to treat Low Back pain and Gain Relief.!!! Regarding Low Back Pain…about 80% of Americans will experience back pain at some point in their life. The connection to a physical source isn’t always clear, since some people show no spinal abnormalities on an X-ray yet suffer excruciating pain.

There is a way you can get rid of your Fibromyalgia and rapidly become pain free without drugs, pills, or surgery, and get your life back without losing any more value time and missing out on the quality of life you ought to have.

During pregnancy, a woman’s body obviously goes through significant changes, ranging from hormonal adjustments to a more obvious physical transformation.  These necessary and perfectly normal changes in themselves are nothing to worry about.  They are simply the result of a woman’s body working to create the perfect environment for her developing baby.  Some of these normal changes though, can result in a misaligned spine or joints.  A pelvic misalignment can actually reduce the amount of room available for the developing baby, and the baby can experience difficulty getting into the best possible position for delivery when the pelvis is misaligned.

There was a young lady who just left our care here at Active Life Health and Wellness.  She first came in to be treated for her terrible scoliosis, but soon found we could help her with many health concerns including sleeping disorders, fatigue, neck pain, back pain, immune deficiency, among many other things.  Correcting a scoliosis can be difficult, but at Active Life Health and Wellness, we’ve had excellent results with correcting scoliosis. One of her problems was that her neck curved the wrong way.  A normal neck curve should be 43-45 degrees. Without that curve in your neck, your neck begins to deteriorate.
