I had been using Bio-Genesis Bars for 19 years as they were the healthiest and best tasting bars that met the high standards of healthcare professionals. During that time I always looked at other bars as possible additions or replacements, with none ever tasting close to good enough.
Fortunately for all of us, as the Bio-Genesis bars became unavailable a few months ago, the KTO-Bar has arrived. The KTO-Bar is the best tasting and healthiest bar I have ever come across! The KTO-BAR is an ideal snack, or in a pinch a meal replacement. It is a very healthy source of energy for anyone reducing their sugar intake and looking for a go-to nutritional bar with ingredients they can trust. It features fats from coconut, cocoa butter, sunflower seed butter and almond butter. The protein is sourced from pumpkin seed and hemp, while the protein, fat and carbohydrate ratio is excellent for stabilizing blood sugar.
If you haven't tried it yet, come on in for a complimentary taste!

Neurofeedback Case History: Anxiety, Anger and ADD
|
|
We have been doing Neurofeedback in our clinic now for over a year and a half and I have seen some life changing results. When it comes to kids, teens and young adults, I get most excited as I know we just changed how this person will experience a longer life ahead of them in an entirely healthier and happier way. In all kids' cases, the changes have been notable and the patient experience shared below is a perfect example.
"Our teen was constantly struggling with symptoms of ADD, poor social skills, anxiety, anger outbursts and poor impulse control. We tried everything; diet, medication, different schools and different parenting programs, but nothing worked. We were out of patience and felt so defeated in trying to help him. We felt hopeless. Dr Dale’s approach was hopeful and we were willing to try anything to help our teen.
We could not believe the change of behavior we saw. When he didn’t explode over something small almost instantly, was able to read social cues differently and started to make friends, he became more active and engaged with our family. It was amazing! We stay in close contact with Dr. Dale to make sure we are always letting him know if anything changed but life has been so much more peaceful and enjoyable for our whole family since we have done the NF! My other kids are begging to do it for themselves as they have seen such an impact from their brother!"
For our community, and me, please share this story with any friends who may have a child or know an adult who you think could possibly benefit from Neurofeedback. Maybe you will help change their life.

Celluma, Infrared Light Therapy at its Best!
|
|
We've now had Celluma in the clinic for almost 3 months and I am very pleased with this modern day healing tool. In the simplest sense, when the appropriate light frequency is applied for the targeted tissue, healing is advanced and cells regenerate!
There is little more that we could ask for when it comes to healing. Whether we're targeting ligaments due to a sprain, skin due to aging, damage or infection, nerves that are degenerating, or muscles that are injured or chronically stiff; Celluma can assist with the return of function.
In some of these cases, of course, other factors have to be present, like optimal nutrition. A nerve can't regenerate well if it is deficient in Vit. B-12, and skin can't recover well if there is not enough of the nutrients to promote Collagen formation. However, when all the variables are present it is amazing how well our bodies and cells can heal!
If you haven't experienced the benefits of Celluma yet, follow the link below to read about Celluma and LLT and call the office for your 3 Complimentary Sessions.

The very good news is that so far this seasons Cold and Flu Season has been mild. There are a fair number of infections going around but few in my patient base that have been more than mild.
However, "mild" can still be a big nuisance. The most common "mild" symptom is persistent fatigue. Feeling like you're dragging, for no apparent reason, day in and day out has a big impact on our ability to enjoy daily activities. When it comes to dealing with the harder things, even if they are small, being fatigued makes them feel almost impossible.
If this is something you are experiencing and you're not sure if it is a sign of infection, call the clinic right away, get in for an appoitment and I'll get it sorted out. If it is a low grade infection, and you follow my protocol, the good news is within 2-3 days you will be starting to feel great again!
Also, If you want to maximize your resistance to getting sick at all, follow my Infection Prevention Protocol that is on our Immune Refrigerator Page.
Here is my
Immune Refrigerator Page
so it's easy to know what to do right away. Please be sure to open the attachment, print it out and place it on your refrigerator.
One additional tool: For those who want to use every possible approach to decreasing your risk of infection, we have had great success using our PEMF system to boost the immune system and stop infections in record time. I always do this and with my Immune Protocol my symptoms are gone in 24-48 hours.
Warning! Very Important: Do not stop your Cold or Flu protocol prematurely
. Oftentimes when you get on top of an infection right away, you can feel like you are all better within a few days. However, even though you have no symptoms, the bugs are still hanging around; it's just that your immune system is winning the battle. Stopping your protocol too soon can allow the infection to come back with a vengeance and often the second round is harder than the first to get on top of. So, continue your protocol for at least 2 weeks of being symptom free before stopping it.

Products of the Month: Immune Balancing Complex & Humacel
|
|
Immune Balancing Complex is the most comprehensive and effective broad spectrum immune support formula I have come across. We have used this for years with patients and the results have been very reliable and consistent. This product is excellent for boosting immune health in order to reduce the chance of catching a bug, and at higher doses it is very effective in supporting the body to fight off an infection.
Immune Balancing Complex is formulated with ingredients that act synergistically to create a well-balanced immune response. The longer you use Immune Balancing Complex, the better it works. Certain herbs that have shown a tendency to develop immune system resistance to their supportive properties, such as echinacea, have purposefully been left out. Immune Balancing Complex can be taken daily for long periods of time without concern of a blunted or decreased immune response.
Humacel is a product we have recommended for viral infections for over tens years. With the flu virus being particularly problematic and the frequency of other viral infections it is important to understand the benefits and effctiveness of Humacel.
What is Humacel?
Humacel is a proprietary formulation of standardized extracts of humic and fulvic acids, ubiquitous materials that arise from natural processes such as prolonged biochemical degradation or plant residues. These substances, found in soils, sediments, and water, are known to provide immune support and contain broad-spectrum anti-viral properties. The first "Western" scientific study of humic acid was reported in 1786, however these compounds have been used in "Eastern" medicinal practice for far longer.
Anti-viral Properties
Viruses are extremely small organisms that can easily get inside cells, where they use our cells' RNA and DNA to replicate and multiply at a fast rate. In order to get inside the our cells', a virus must attach, or "fuse", to the cellular membrane, allowing it to inject its genome into the cell. Viruses contain a receptor-binding protein that keeps them attached to our cells'. This protein encapsulates the virus and makes it resistant to attacks from the immune system.
Special Offer!
From now until Thanksgiving, buy 2 or more Immune Balancing Complex or Humacel and save 10%!
