With understanding and by addressing the cause, we can start the process of healing in a natural empowering way.

Learn holistic ways to best support your body so it can heal, repair itself and thrive with proper nutrition, stress reduction techniques and detoxing.  Learn how this applies to Women’s Health and empower your body to enjoy optimal health by finding the root cause and natural ways to help with many health issues a woman may encounter in her lifetime including:

Stress Pain Headaches.  Is there a non-pharmacological solution?

Yes….BIOFEEDBACK!

Stress  has an enormous impact on our immune system. The way you THINK, FEEL and RESPOND to situations doesn’t only affect your stress level. It affects your immune system in a complex and sometimes paradoxical way by either suppressing it or by make it hyper-reactive.

All stressors including emotional, physical, nutritional and toxic have wide spread effects on our health. Symptoms of improper stress management include tension headaches, muscle and joint pain, allergies, poor digestion, and autoimmune disease among others.

Biofeedback therapy  addresses the stress problem in a unique, empowering and efficient way, by teaching the patient how to modulate their stress RESPONSE. That’s right! You have the ability to do something to dampen the effects of stress on your body.

Biofeedback therapy improves physical and emotional health and promotes optimal health in the following areas/conditions among others:

Tension headaches
Pain
Anxiety
Postural imbalances
Raynaud’s Phenomenon
Poor Digestion/IBS
Asthma
Nocturnal bruxism (teeth grinding)

Tension Headaches

Education, Health Blog - , , -

Tension Headaches are caused by muscle contractions in the head and neck regions. A variety of foods, activities, and stressors can cause these types of contractions. At NMR we offer many complimentary services to help our patients better manage stress and reduce the symptoms caused by chronic stress:

  • Biofeedback Therapy is noninvasive. It can reduce or eliminate the need for medications; it may be an option when medications haven’t worked well.
  • Nutrition. Optimizing nutrition and hydration is critical to reduce cravings, improve energy, lose weight, prevent illness, reduce inflammation, and symptoms of disease. Food may be contributing to the pain you are experiencing.
  • Education. Increase awareness of behaviors that cause physical stress and physical pain like bracing/guarding, poor posture, and improper lifting. Learn healthy lifestyle behaviors will enhance your results.
  • Therapeutic Massage. Pressure is applied to soft tissue effecting changes by relaxing contracted muscles, increasing circulation, improving range of motion by stimulating the stretch reflex of muscles and overlying fascia (connective tissue).
  • Chiropractic Therapy. Chiropractic adjustments are very effective for treating tension headaches, especially headaches that originate in the neck.

 

Text Neck – creating poor posture, back problems, headaches, neck pain & muscle tension

Education, Health Blog - , , , , , -

Spending hours each day with our heads bent down at our mobile devices is putting excess pressure on the spine and puts us at risk for poor posture, back problems, headaches, neck pain and muscle tension.

Your head weighs about 10 pounds, but by tilting your head forward by just 15 degrees it puts over 25 pounds of pressure on your spine.  While bending down to look at mobile devices, most are tilting their head from 15 – 60 degrees putting up to 60 pounds of pressure on the spine!  Text Neck is causing poor posture, back problems, headaches, neck pain and muscle tension.

Our Body Stress Assessment screening can help!  This unique health screening is designed to help people recognize how postural stress may be affecting their health and overall stress burden.  We will identify physical and postural imbalances that may be contributing to various health symptoms and complaints such as headaches, neck and back pain, and muscle tension.  This intriguing screening analyzes a person’s posture and measures the degree of physical stress that one’s posture is placing on the body.
