Avoid Summer Food Poisoning
Foodborne illness peaks in the summer, as more people are cooking outside without the safety controls of a kitchen. Symptoms of food poisoning typically include nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, abdominal pain, and fever. The severity and duration of symptoms vary depending on the type and amount of contaminated food ingested. Common causes of food poisoning include improper food handling, inadequate cooking, cross-contamination, and consuming expired or spoiled food. It is essential to practice good hygiene, proper food storage, thorough cooking, and regular handwashing to prevent foodborne illnesses. If food poisoning is suspected, seeking medical attention, staying hydrated, and resting are crucial for recovery and avoiding complications.
Optimize Your Golf Game
Have you taken that first swing and felt off? Whether you’re rushing to your tee time or focused on your first big drive, it’s easy to skip a proper warm-up. But skipping it can lead to a frustrating game—or worse, injury. Before warm-up swings, start with 5–10 minutes of stretching and mobility work. Focus on your shoulders, spine, and hips to boost flexibility and get your blood flowing. Dynamic moves like arm circles, torso twists, and lateral lunges can improve your range of motion and help prevent strain. A quick warm-up sets you up for a smoother, more powerful round.
Summer Denture Care Tips
Summer heat can affect your dentures and oral health. To keep them in top condition, rinse your dentures after meals to prevent buildup and stay hydrated to maintain oral moisture. Avoid leaving dentures in direct sunlight or hot environments, as this can cause warping. Clean them daily with a soft brush and non-abrasive cleaner to remove bacteria. For a refreshing feel, store your dentures in water with a bit of mouthwash when not in use. Regular dental check-ups are essential to ensure proper fit and function. Enjoy the summer with a confident and comfortable smile!
Align Your Spine, Elevate Your Health
Chiropractic care supports more than your spine—it plays a key role in your body’s overall function. Your nervous system, which controls every organ and muscle, is housed within your spine. Dysfunction can interfere with nerve communication, leading to a host of symptoms including: fatigue, tension, and even digestive issues. As part of your self-care routine, chiropractic adjustments help restore balance and improve nervous system performance. Incorporating mindful movement, proper hydration, and good posture into daily life complements this care and enhances results. Think of chiropractic not just as pain relief, but as a proactive tool for long-term wellness and vitality.

Cortisone Injections for Injury Relief
Cortisone injections are commonly used to reduce inflammation and relieve pain from joint or soft tissue injuries. They contain corticosteroids, which mimic the body’s natural anti-inflammatory hormones. These injections are often administered directly into the affected area, such as a knee or shoulder. Relief may be felt within a few days and can last from weeks to months. Cortisone injections are typically part of a broader treatment plan, including rest, physical therapy, or other interventions to support long-term healing and prevent further injury.
