Regenerative Sport Spine and Spa - April 2019

STEM CELLS ARE MIGHTY HEALERS … Regenerative medicine is a quickly growing and exciting field that is becoming more and more popular among injured people worldwide. These therapies are bringing relief to clients who have spent years dealing with chronic pain and injuries that may have been unresponsive to other types of treatments. For example, in our practice, we offer stem cell therapies to treat clients suffering from spinal injuries as well as osteoarthritis that can cause joint pain in the knees, hips, shoulders, elbows, neck, and more. During these procedures, we use stem cells harvested from the client’s bone marrow and then re-inject them into the spine and joints or other treatment areas. We can also use donated regenerative products such as amniotic fluid or Wharton’s jelly in the same areas to help regenerate. The stem cell therapy takes no more than two hours from start to finish in most cases. While we’ve seen tremendous success with stem cell therapy, we know that the shot itself isn’t the sole cure for pain and/or injury. You have to incorporate movement and strengthen the muscle surrounding the injured area to prevent the pain from flaring up again. That is why we direct our clients to our rehabilitation specialists at our partner clinic, Activcore, following any injections. No single approach to rehabilitation will do; you need to work with specialists who have

been trained in regenerative medicine. This will ensure that you have clear post- procedure restrictions as well as an exercise regimen that can expedite your recovery and prevent future issues from occurring.

EASY BACON AND SPINACH STIR-FRY

Since we’ve given you lots of material to read already, why don’t you take a quick break? But don’t just sit there. Use this break as an opportunity to increase your lung capacity through pursed-lips breathing! Pursed-lips breathing can slow down your breathing, which keeps your airways open longer. This makes it easier for the lungs to function and improves the exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide. This breathing exercise is often easier for beginners, and you can do it at home even if no one has showed you how. TAKE A BREAK FROM READING... AND INCREASE YOUR LUNG CAPACITY

This super easy stir-fry is the perfect weekday dinner. It manages to pack a ton of flavor using just a handful of ingredients.

ingredients

3 slices bacon

3 cloves garlic, coarsely chopped

2 bunches spinach

1 teaspoon crushed red pepper

Salt and black pepper, to taste

directions

To practice the pursed-lips breathing technique:

1. Heat a large skillet to medium. 2. While skillet is warming, cut bacon into squares.

1. Inhale slowly through your nostrils. 2. Purse your lips, as if pouting or about to blow on something. 3. Breathe out as slowly as possible through pursed lips (this should take at least twice as long as it did to breathe in). 4. Repeat.

3. Cook bacon until fat is rendered and bacon is almost to your desired doneness. If desired, you can remove bacon fat from skillet and replace with 1 tablespoon oil. However, keeping the fat is recommended for flavor. 4. Add garlic and cook for 1–2 minutes. 5. Add spinach and crushed red pepper and stir-fry for 10 minutes. 6. Season with salt and pepper, and serve.
