Is that pain in your head...or perhaps your feet?


If You  have been told that the Pain in Your Knees, Hips or Back was in Your Head - Maybe you should have your Feet Examined!





Did you know that imbalanced arches in the feet can cause your leg to twist and place a twisting force on the knee that is transferred all the way up through the hip, pelvis, spine and can even cause a leg to be shortened.
Also these arch imbalances cause you to lose their shock-absorbing action. Imagine taking the shock-absorbers and springs out of your car and driving around. Just think how it would feel with all those impacts rapidly breaking down the parts of your car.
Fortunately, the arches of the feet can be supported by the use of custom-made orthotics.
In our office, we have a computerized-digital foot scanner that is able to examine your feet (while weight-bearing) and make a prescription for a pair of orthotics, specifically made to re-balance your body's foundation and to give it additional stability and shock-absorption.
Our orthotic lab has temporarily reduced the cost to us by $100.00 until October 18th, 2013.

So, we are having our first Sale ever, on custom orthotics. From now through 10-18-2013 the price of our orthotics is only $225.00 (instead of $325.00).

Did you know that giving someone the Raspberries was actually a good thing?




Did you know that giving someone the Raspberries was actually a good thing?

A 2011 study on human subjects (not just rats), showed that consuming 60 grams of freeze-dried black raspberry powder a day for 1 to 9 weeks decreased tumor biomarkers associated with anti-cancer effects on certain genes involved in colorectal cancer (adenocarcinomas).

So give the raspberries frequently and enjoy them in good health.
