Please enjoy and let us know if you have any sugestions for future issues.

Helping Amy
Many of you may remember Amy Quincy, who worked with us as a muscle therapist.

This past December, Amy celebrated her 37th birthday in the neurological trauma recovery unit of Brooke's Rehabilitation in Jacksonville Florida.

Three weeks prior she complained of a throbbing headache for which Dr. Dunn suggested she see a neurologist. Her MRI confirmed she had a cluster of blood vessels close to her brain stem. A few days later the angioma hemorrhaged.

Amy suffered damage to the nerves in her legs. Her speech was impaired and she could not walk or do on her own, most of the daily activities we take for granted.

Over the past six months Amy has been forced to relinquish her gift of self-reliance. She is learning how to stand on her own, utilize her hands productively and speak with clarity.

We will be raffling off a "Spinolator" table (value $1000), as well as other great prizes on Monday, Sept. 24 at 6:30pm to help Amy.

Your child's backpack should be proportional to body size, the shoulder straps should be adjustable, padded and at least two inches wide.

Supplement Spotlight
Vitamin C

We all know Vitamin C builds the immune system. But it's much more important to the body than just fighting off a cold.

But did you know it can also help your eyes, heart, allergies, arthritis, as well as helping combat the effects of cumulative stress and some diseases?

Client Success Story
Barbara Turley

"I started seeing Dr. Joe in 1986, even before he had his own practice. I had constant pain in my neck and back stemming from a serious car accident a few years before.

My orthopedic doctor had told me that although there was not serious injury to my spine, I would have problems with it the rest of my life and offered me a large supply of muscle relaxers as the only treatment..."
