Toronto Chiropractic Wellness Clinic

Often times when people come into the office and receive treatment they question me saying “Doc, I don’t remember injuring that! Or when did that happen to me I never hurt that!”

What should be known is many injuries are not traumatic injuries but are caused by every day events.

This morning while walking my dog I slipped on an icy sidewalk and regained my footing before falling.

I felt my head and skull bones jar due to the recovery, and immediately I senses my left should muscles (rotator cuff) “shut” off.

You see the skull and the many bones are supposed to move through a range of motion. When they become jarred, impacted (hitting head getting in/out of car, bumping head on cupboards/headboards, etc.), stepping off a curb and jarring the low back sending chain reaction up the spine, etc. they no longer function optimally and the nervous control to other areas of the body become affected.

Not only are the upper cervical (neck) nerves controlling the upper body muscles, but within the brain (squished, or soggy depending on pressure of the derranged bone structure) the sensory and motor areas to various areas become compromised!

Although it does not take much to restore functioning (a quick visit to see Dr. Andrew Greszczyszyn at Toronto Chiropractic Wellness Clinic) if it is not found and corrected the impact can be severe and debilitating.

Some of the common results of cranial fault injuries (malplaced, malmoving, deformed, indented, or protruding bones) include:

-headaches              -sinus congestion                 -allergies           -laboured breathing

-racing heart           -racing breathing             -poor eyesight -needing glasses

-heart burn             -indegestion                          -acupuncture problems

-recurring hicupps -dropped uterus/prostate  -migraines           -weak muscles

-switched nervous control                                     -dyslexia            -ADHD

-and much more!!!

For this reason it become imperative that all my patients are assessed for Cranial Fault Injuries and corrections are made.

Treatments are non-invasive, low impact and use Cranial Sacral Technique a powerful advanced way of correcting skull and head problems.

Earlier this week a patient came into the clinic. Looking at her face I had to notice the unsymetry of her jaw structure.

TMJ. I mentioned to her that treatments could likely normalize the appearance of her jawline and give more clean appearances.

The first treatment was more talking. Don’t chew gum, drink more water, and some light chiropractice care. She came back the a couple days later feeling better and asked me if I could begin to work on her jaw.

Doing some TMJ work, cranial work and reiterating to not chew gum, not eat some foods she was allergic too, and some light adjusting, the patient finished this second treatment went to the mirror and noticed balance of her jaw.

Cosmetic Chiropractic. Yes! Dr. Andrew Greszczyszyn scope is not just back pain. Comfortable in working on structure dysfunction, chemical imblances (too much of a chemical, or not enough of another chemical), emotions, and even energetic faults, Dr. Andrew assess the patient and uses a variety of techniques to bring or restore balance and health.

Have you ever woken up with a sore neck, low back pain, or dyscomfort which made you not want to get out of bed?

This is one of the four primary conditions where one feels fatigued at different times of the day.

When you wake up lethargic, with unusual pain or dyscomfort, sickness or even a sore neck this is the sign you have had a Illiocecal Valve Dysfunction.

The Illeocecal Valve (ICV) is a small working valve sitting between the small intestine and large intestine that should allow food stuff to move from the small instestine into the large intestine but not back.

Under stress, with allergic foods, parasites (yes these are more common than you may think), emotional stress, hot spices the ICV become non functional most often getting stuck open and allowing patially digested toxic material back into the small intestine which makes the body become toxic, retain water, become bloaty, make dark circles under the eyes, lethargic in the morning, unusual pain, and even crabbiness or the feelings you don’t want to get out of bed.

Why is this important to know? Well to begin with any time you witness this in yourself or family, friends, relatives or coworkers, you’ll know to come into the clinic since it is an easy 5 minute fix up to reset the tone of the ICV, allowing the normal flow of digestion and decreasing the pain, dyscomfort, lethargy, dark circles under the eyes, and even unsual onset of neck pain (torticolis).

Important to consider anytime but very much so when confronted with important meetings, deadlines, career or family functions, ceremonies, or even outings when you have to be on your best, look good, feel amazing and not have to worry about looking bloated, tired or in pain.

Throughout the year people come into the office and complain of certain things.

Often these weather complaint occur when the seasons change. Although not obvious the electrothermal make up of man, alters or is substantially altered during the seasonal changes.

For this reason everyone should come into the office no less than four times a year-during the seasonal changes. It is during this seasonal changes that acupuncture or electromagentic fields in the body become off-balanced and not optimal. Only the most finely tuned patient does not require acupunture during seasonal variations.

Often times there are struggles trying to lose weight. Does this have to be the way?

No far from it! Although some fad diets help lose weight, stopping the diet, eating regular foods, or even stressing out about the diet is enough to not want to stay on the diet or start the diet in the first place.

Although there are many diets that have been adopted by individuals one thing works everytime. Losing weight and regulating metabolism can be achieved with one simple tool. Allergy testing.

Testing foods that the patient is allergic to, educating the patient on alllergy containing foods, and promoting a diet free of the allergies is the sure way to drop weight quickly, effectively and for ever.

Although you can be pestimistic, if you truly want to really lose weight, Dr. Andrew at Toronto Chiropractic Wellness Clinic is the guy for your problem. Well versed in allergy testing, dietary counselling and nutritional advice, supporting the diet with nutrients to speed up the metabolism, enabling correct digestion and riding the body of harmful chemicals that limit fat cells from diminishing, Dr. Andrew will guarantee that taking his advice will shed any weight loss amount you’d safely like to attempt.

Do you or someone you know have a history or family history of stroke?

Stroke in laymans terms is when the vasculature or blood vessels to the brain do not get adequate blood and oxygen to the brain cells.

Impacted by a variety of conditions most notably it occurs when there is high levels of Homocystein.

A good way to prevent stroke and something any stroke survivor, or individual with family history of stroke should add to their lifestyle modification is supplementing with Vitamin B12 and Folate (folic acid).

Considered to be the main reason that people have glutinating bloods cells, forming clumpy sluggish bloods that can not pass through the blood vessels, in some cases supplementing with Vitamin B12, and Folate is not enough.

Why? In about 1/4 of the populations (25%) the individual (not of stroke patients but all individuals) can not convert folate to readily available converted folate. What this means is eating tons of green leafy vegetable, drinking orange juice or eating peanuts makes no siginificant alteration to levels of folic acid in the system. Not only that but supplementing with folic acid does not do the trick. It is not until one supplements with the converted form of folic acid or 5-methythaterahydrafolate that one becomes better able to decrease homeocystein and overcome the possibility of stroke.

How does one know where they are one of the 25% of the population that can not convert folic acid into the bioavailable folate form? Nutrient testing. At Toronto Chiropractic Wellness Clinic Dr. Greszczyszyn can test you to determine if you require the bioavaible form 5-MTHfolate or you can safely take adequate levels of B12 and regular Folate. Something every stroke patient or one with family history of stroke should consider.
