Helping Our Beaches Community

It's time for the annual Pablo Towers Sing-a-long!

Please join us! Thursday, Dec. 13; 7-8:30 pm; Pablo Towers Community Center at 115 South 3rd Street in Jacksonville Beach. We are excited to be joined by dancers from Nancy Dance this year!

The ABC's of Nutrition

Many of our patients at Dunn Wellness Center understand the importance of maintaining a healthy weight. Recent scientific research has confirmed the seriousness of nutritional deficiencies.

But it's even more important to maintain a healthy lifestyle, and eating right is essential to everyday health.

Sometimes it's hard for you to know what you really need. Because we all have our own unique biochemical individuality, the amount the body needs of any one vitamin or mineral may be different for each person.

Here are a few pointers to remember about nutrition:

 
Life Skill of the Month
Stretching

Stretching  is important for overall flexibility which helps prevent injury and for the maintenance of  normal joint, tendon and ligament function. It improves the range of motion in the joints.

As a result, everyday activities such as lifting, bending and walking stay normal. 

Here are a few guidelines to make the most of stretching:

 
 
Supplement Spotlight
Vitamin D

And you thought you were finished reading about vitamins!

Though our main article is on nutrition, we want to highlight a specific vitamin in each issue. This time we spotlight Vitamin D.

Vitamin D is vital to the absorption of calcium and phosphorus in the body. It strengthens bones and teeth and also fosters normal muscle contraction and nerve function.

Vitamin D is also useful in promoting immunity and blood cell formation. In addition to maintaining healthy bones, Vitamin D also plays a role in the prevention of other ailments.
 
Client Success Story

Carol Irvine

(after just one electric acupuncture session with Dr. Dunn)

"I just had to call and tell you. I feel so good! Nothing hurts!

I'm driving the car. My leg doesn't hurt! My foot doesn't hurt. My back doesn't hurt! Right now is the first time in I can't tell you how long, it's probably years; nothing hurts!

I'm so confident about doing this, and I was just so unsold about putting one more pill in my body for this pain!

Thank you! I am so glad I decided to do this!"
