2009 July 1 Chiropractor Classifieds
Posted:Tue, 30 Jun 2009 16:57:00 -0400
Chiropractic News:- By chiropracticclassifieds.com The month of June featured lots of new chiropractic classified advertisements placed in the categories of practices for sale, chiropractic jobs, employment opportunities, and equipment for sale by private parties. Nearly all the practices for sale are listed in the United States, but there are some in Canada as well, and even some practices listed internationally. The Associates job wanted and job available categories have been fairly active during the month of June, and will likely continue to be so throughout the summer. Those using the categories for selling chiropractic products online once again advised to use common sense and be alert to potential scams.
Common Sense Classified Advertising Awareness
Posted:Mon, 29 Jun 2009 17:10:00 -0400
Chiropractic News:- By Michael Dorausch, DC Classified advertising online has experienced a steadily growing pace during the past decade. While millions of people have bought and sold items, bartered goods and services, and even made pet adoptions, taking precautionary measures when using online services is still a good practice. Just as you would look both ways before crossing a busy intersection, applying basic steps to assure the party you're dealing with is legitimate, should not be discounted when using classified advertising websites.(photo: look before crossing for your safety and safety of others)Community is great and growing trends of transparency online are really pushing forward levels of trust perhaps not seen before.

H1N1 Flu Formerly Known As Swine
Posted:Mon, 29 Jun 2009 09:54:00 -0400
Chiropractic News:- By Darrel Crain, DCJust when the flu "formerly known as swine" was losing its headline luster for being too mild and ordinary a bug, the first global influenza pandemic in 41 years was declared by the World Health Organization (WHO). On June 11, 2009 the WHO raised the pandemic warning to level 6, the highest possible alert.Officials point out that this classification refers only to the geographic spread of the new flu over the globe, and tells nothing of its virulence or deadliness. Nevertheless, the heightened alert will likely rekindle the flames of "pandemania" in the U.S., sending multitudes of panicky parents to already overcrowded emergency rooms with feverish, sniffling children.Hysteria in the realm of public health is highly disruptive to normal health services, not to mention unnecessary and costly. Intentionally or not, health leaders the world over create panic with their pronouncements. What about educating the public rather than raising a ruckus? Wouldn't...

I can tell you that today, everything has the potential to be newsworthy, as the world has become a constant flow of online information. Today we celebrate 10 years of consistent news content creation and there's times I wonder just what went on during the past decade. For you Internet old-timers that have been around creating content since previous to 1999, I salute you, it's a constant effort. It's Father's Day Sunday morning, and I'm already 3 posts up in preparation of the week ahead.

First Day of Summer 2009
Posted:Sat, 20 Jun 2009 08:01:00 -0400
Chiropractic News:- By Daria Belov The longest day of the year is here, today is the first day of summer for 2009, taking us into the approaching summer solstice (June 21 at 05:45).

Opposite from Summer, the winter solstice is the shortest day of the year.

If Tiger Woods Planned His Success, Why Can't You?
Posted:Thu, 18 Jun 2009 04:55:00 -0400
Chiropractic News:- By Jennifer Kushell Playing Bethpage Black in the 2009 US Open today? It's possible you are if your name is Tiger Woods. Let's face it. It's pretty easy for any of us to say we're going to get to the top of our game, but few actually pull it off - let alone in the sporting world. Tiger Woods did though. So why can't any of us?Before you rush to discount the comparison of Tiger's success in his field to yours (listen up chiropractors), consider the fact that he was just a kid when he built his plan. It wasn't the smoothest start either. In fact, Tiger was nine years old when he decided he might stop playing golf altogether. After some serious discussions with his parents, he reconsidered, then dove into training harder than ever.

Chiropractic News:- ICPA News ADHD Drugs Pose Serious Risk to Children -- Chiropractic Recommended as Safer Approach A new study has found that drugs used to treat attention deficit disorders may put kids at risk for of sudden death. The study, in the American Journal of Psychiatry, found an association between stimulant medications (like Ritalin) used to treat ADHD may cause sudden death in healthy children. In the past, there have been published reports indicating warning signs of danger. Last year, even the American Heart Association suggested the initiation of routine heart screening tests prior to starting children with ADHD on stimulant drugs and called for future studies to assess the risk of sudden death. The manufacturers of the drugs are still denying an association, with some refusing to comment to media inquiry.

Many patients in our office are Lakers fans, so we may as well be celebrating together in the streets.
