Make a Fresh Start in 2012

Thanks to everyone for a wonderful start to the new year, we are delighted to welcome nearly 30 new members to our Chiropractic Health Centre.  Thank you for all your referrals, the greatest compliment you can give us is to refer your friends and family for chiropractic care.  Remember what they say, if you are happy with our service tell everyone, if you are not happy tell us.

Does this sound like you?

The new year is a great time for a good clean up, not only of your house and garage, but also your own body. With the start of the new year, take this time to think about how you are feeling.
• Do you feel less healthy and energetic than other people your age?
• Do you often have difficulty thinking clearly?
• Do you get sick often?
• Do you often feel tired, sluggish and flat?
• Do you have digestive disturbances (wind, bloating, flatulence, constipation, heartburn)?
• Do you have bad breath or body odour?
• Do you eat junk food, drink alcohol or make poor lifestyle decisions?

If you answered ‘yes’ to any of these questions, you may be in need of a ‘spring clean’. These are the types of symptoms you may experience when many of the toxic
substances you have been exposed to have accumulated within your body, leaving you feeling less than your best. Chiropractic Health Centre uses a safe and effective professional detoxification program to improve the way in which your body eliminates toxins and to bring you back to a state of health and vitality.

Toxic Exposure - A Reality of Modern Life

Toxin exposure is seemingly unavoidable in our modern world. Every day we are
exposed to toxins like heavy metals, pesticides, chemicals, food additives and pollutants, which are present in the air, water and food that we consume. Toxins do not only come from our external environment; toxins can also be generated internally by ‘unfriendly’ bacteria, yeasts, and parasites in our digestive systems.

Your body has numerous mechanisms to help eliminate all these toxins, but these
detoxification pathways can become overwhelmed if you produce, consume or
absorb more toxins than you can easily clear. A professional detoxification program supports toxin clearance through these pathways, leaving you feeling healthy and energetic.

Clean up with a Safe and Effective Detoxifcation Program

Detoxifying is serious business and your safety and comfort during detoxification is
important to us. Undergoing the wrong type of detox for your individual needs may
actually leave you feeling sick and tired. You should not attempt a detoxification program without the guidance and support of a trainedhealthcare Practitioner.  The natural supplements used in this program support your body by allowing your natural
detoxification and repair systems to function efficiently, without causing undesirable side effects.

IT’S TIME TO COME CLEAN!

Live the Detox Lifestyle
To make the most of a detoxification program, specific lifestyle modifications can also be helpful:
1. Exercise: Our bodies are designed for regular physical activity. Regular exercise supports detoxification by allowing the lymphatic system to carry toxins and wastes out of the body. You should aim for 30 to 40 minutes of moderate intensity aerobic exercise, three to four times per week.

2. Avoid recreational drugs: Recreational drugs (including caffeine, cigarettes and alcohol) interfere with your detoxification processes and should be avoided to ensure you get the most out of your detoxification program.

3. Drink pure water: One of the easiest ways to improve your detoxification capacity is to drink plenty of water. Ideally the water should be filtered and you should aim to drink at least 2 litres of water per day, or more if it is hot or when you are exercising.

4. Detoxify your environment: Your home and work can be major sources of toxins. Try to eliminate or minimise your use of chemical cleaning products (vinegar, bicarb and other natural products are suitable alternatives), antiperspirants with aluminum, pesticides, petrochemicals, paints, solvents and hair spray.

5. Avoid toxic emotions and stress: How you think and feel can profoundly influence your health. Choose to be positive, optimistic and focused on improving your health. If you have a major stress in your life, enlisting the support of others to help can be useful. If you have lots of little stressors, practicing a relaxation technique like yoga, tai chi or meditation may be helpful.

6. Dry skin brushing: Your skin is a major organ of elimination. Dead skin cells can accumulate and prevent the skin being able to remove toxins effectively. Before you shower, spend five to ten minutes with a firm bristled brush or loofah brushing the skin of the arms, legs, and back briskly in the direction of the heart.

7. Massage:  Massage techniques may accelerate detoxification, particularly
lymphatic drainage. These treatments have a long traditional use for detoxification and will certainly leave you feeling relaxed and stress free.

8. Sleep and rest well:  Proper rest and a good night’s sleep will go a long way while you are on your detox program.  Many experts recommend that we get between 7 and 9 hours a night.  While the length of sleep is important, it is equally as important that you get a good quality sleep.  If you are having trouble sleeping speak to Marti.

9. Chiropractic:  of course, without a fully functioning nervous system your body can not deal with the toxins it is exposed to every single day, so make sure you get your regualr treatments.

Make a Clean Start to 2012!

If 2011 has left you feeling tired, sluggish, and less than your best, a detoxification
program can help you to make a clean start to 2012 with renewed health and vitality. Talk to Marti today to find out more about a safe and
effective professional detoxification program suitable to your individual needs.  We have two integrated detox programs; firstly,  a six week Integrated Detox program which has three stages, Remove, Renew and Release.  Plus for those who have
previously done a six week program you can do the two week Express Detox program to make up for short term lifestyle excesses.

The Integrated Detox Program involves 6
different supplements, two supplements for each two week stage to remove bad bacteria and waste, renew your digestive system and kidneys and finally release toxins effectively with liver detoxification.  We have packaged the detox program together for you for the special price of $275 for the 6 weeks,
including all supplements, testing, detox booklet, meal plan and consultation with
Marti, saving you a total of $75.
