Make 2012 the Year That You Finally Lose the Weight!

“This is the year that I will finally lose the weight!” It’s easy to make a resolution on New Year’s Day to get healthy and slim down, but it is much harder to follow through with the necessary lifestyle changes. If you’ve struggled to lose weight in the past, you know just how hard it can be to take off the pounds and successfully keep them off.

At Oviedo Family Chiropractic, our chiropractor is here to help! Our approach to weight loss is different than anything you’ve ever experienced. We understand that for many individuals who struggle with their weight, making healthy food choices and exercising are not enough. If you are overweight, you body is burning sugar rather than fat. We can help you by cleansing your body from toxins and resetting your metabolism.

Oviedo patients choose our weight loss program because we understand the science behind long-term weight management. Traditional diets deprive the body of vital nutrients, sending it into starvation mode. At the same time, these diets spike cortisol levels, telling the brain to store food as fat. It’s no surprise then that when we stop dieting the pounds come right back on.

Take off the Pounds with Nutritional Counseling and Detox

We help patients change their metabolism by removing toxins and impurities from the body. When we diet without also detoxing, a smaller body mass means that a greater percentage of impurities are exposed. Your body’s natural response is to store fat to protect itself from these impurities. Our 40-day weight loss program cleanses toxins from the system and efficiently removes waste from the liver and colon. This ensures that the body can focus on burning fat, rather than storing it.

Ready to kick-start your weight loss journey? This is your year! We’ll help you drop the pounds and remove the toxins from your body that are holding you back from living your life. When you weigh less, you’ll have more energy, better posture (and less low back pain!) and walk with confidence. You will finally be the person that you were meant to be.

Pediatrics and Chiropractic Care: A Natural Combination

Many people associate what we do with auto accident victims, athletes coping with sports injuries or older folks who need pain relief for a chronic ailment. But did you know that we treat children too? Here at Oviedo Family Chiropractic, we regard pediatrics as one of our core services. Our gentle yet effective methods can be as valuable to younger patients as they are to adult patients.

Consider the many physical traumas a child faces even in the early years of life, starting with birth itself. During delivery a newborn’s bones and tissues undergo considerable pressure that can cause spinal misalignments, including neck problems and other injuries that could play a role in future health troubles. A baby’s body continues to receive a fair amount of stress as he or she learns to stand and walk. Imagine what falling down a dozen times a day could do to your neck or back. You would need spinal checkups and adjustments on a regular basis -- and that is why we recommend them for children.

Regular evaluations and adjustments can also help a child’s body keep many common childhood conditions at bay. Spinal misalignments that impair proper nerve signaling can make a child more vulnerable to earache, colic, respiratory conditions, headaches and possibly even ADHD. If we can address misalignments early on, the nervous system can do a better job of helping the body function and communicate, allowing the child’s body to heal itself faster and maintain a higher standard of health.

Let Us Be Your Child’s Chiropractor

You should only entrust your child’s spine to a family practitioner you trust and feel comfortable with -- and we would like to be that practitioner for all Oviedo parents and children. Our own Drs. Janowitz and Koch have worked with countless children over the years through family wellness events, school health programs and private practice. Let us give your child a head start on a healthy life.
