At Advanced Wellness we know the right movements and manual techniques that have been proven to help patients get back to and active and healthy lifestyle. If you suffer from an aching back or neck, it could simply be that your core muscles are weak. You may have heard of the term “core,” but what is it? Your core is the foundation of your body and like a building, needs to be strong and supportive. If your foundation is weak or crooked, then the other parts of your body, which rely on this, will not function properly. The timing and strength of various muscle contractions is critical for your proper body function. If your timing is off and your muscles are weak, abnormal strains occur to your spine, causing a lot of common aches and pains.

“How Can I Beat My Back Pain?” The Blueprint To Treating Back Pain
If you suffer from back pain, you have probably seen that lots of different types of treatments are available. Medication, injections and other treatments can help with pain control, but do not address the root cause of the problem, which is core weakness. If you have ever had a surgery that involves cutting through the abdomen or pelvis, this weakens the core. In addition, prolonged illness and bed rest also weaken the core. Another common reason for core weakness in women is fromchildbirthandc-sections. This severely weakens the core. The “blueprint” or plan to helping most back pain sufferers and preventing future injuries, is to strengthen the core with professional help. Specialized training and exercise techniques can be done to strengthen your core, relieving
stress on the spine. Physical Therapists are the medical professionals most uniquely qualified to evaluate and treat back pain resulting from core weakness. Working with your physician, we thoroughly evaluate your movement, alignment and strength. After we determine where the root cause of the problem is coming from, we then put together a comprehensive treatment plan to help restore core strength and movement. This helps you not only have relief from back pain, but teaches you the right exercises, posture and movement to prevent future problems and maintain a strong, healthy core. To see how our SPINE Program can give you a strong core and relieve your back pain, call us today or go online for more information.

Answers To Your Inquiries On Our Weight Loss Programs
QUESTION: I have tried other weight loss programs in the past, what makes yours different? ANSWER: Prior to beginning one of our weight loss programs, we do a thorough evaluation and screening, which involves blood work, a physical examination and a complete review of your medical history. You then meet with a nutrition counselor who will provide a detailed and well-structured eating plan that is customized for you and is based on your current medical conditions, food preferences and lifestyle. This plan is easy to follow and shows results quickly. There are plenty of other ways to lose weight, but most of them are unhealthy, fad diets or involve purchasing processed foods in a box. You may achieve your weight-loss goal, but at what cost to your body and your well being? QUESTION: I’ve been reading about supervised medical weight loss. What does that entail? ANSWER: Our program involves FDA approved appetitemanagement therapies and lipotropic nutrients that will promote, encourage, and support the removal of fatty deposits from the liver and aid in ensuring that excess stored fat gets burned off in fuel and energy instead of being stored in the body. This plan also includes nutritional guidance, meal planning and recipes to ensure you are nourishing your body with the right foods. Advanced Wellness has the expertise and personalized care to guide you step by step to help you reach your health and weight loss goals. We have also found that many people who struggle to lose weight may actually have food sensitivity issues that cause inflammation of their cells due to an adverse reaction to certain proteins. Aside from unexplained difficulty losing weight, people with food sensitivities may also experience a variety of symptoms including headaches, acid reflux and digestive issues to name a few. By including a food sensitivity test in our weight loss program, we can identify what foods are most compatible with your body and what foods you should avoid so that we can remove the offenders, reduce inflammation and aid in weight loss. To note, this is not the same test that is done for food allergies, which is an immune system response. Those are more notably food allergies that may cause
