How would YOU help these people?

Dr. Joshua Gelber2019-11-05T12:37:39-05:00

Take a minute and look at the picture below. Now let me ask you a question: How would you help these people? The man covering his ears probably can’t hear that well, would you give him a hearing aid? Should the woman in the middle get glasses? What about the man on the right? A microphone? Maybe some meds? What drugs would you prescribe for these folks to help them hear, see and speak? You’re right. These are ridiculous suggestions to fix obvious problems. If they’d just remove the interference (i.e. their hands [...]

Why You Should NOT See A Chiropractor For Back Pain

Dr. Joshua Gelber2019-10-22T14:25:53-04:00

In 1927, R. W. Stephenson wrote The Chiropractic Text Book. This text included the entire learning program, from freshman to senior year, for chiropractic study. Since back and neck pain are the two most common reasons people choose chiropractic, how many times do you think back pain would be found in the index? Keep in mind this is the complete chiropractic text at over 414 pages long. What’s your guess? 50 times? 100? Every page? The answer is [drum roll please]… Not even ONCE. And the reason it's not listed is because chiropractic was founded on principles of healing and well-being, [...]

My “Glory Days” Plan To Get Back My Fitness

Dr. Joshua Gelber2019-09-24T02:10:27-04:00

Keeping on with the fitness theme this month… I want to share something personal. I’ve been “off track” with my fitness for years now. And I’m finally getting around to having a plan in place to get back into things. What I’m remembering – and why this may be useful to you – is that it’s no small task. There’s work, planning, and dedication that goes into it. Here’s the short list of what I’ve put in motion: *Got an accountability coach *I’m writing out my workout plan (with the help of a trainer) *Putting in my calendar the days and [...]

Why Your Pillows Might Be Killing Your Neck

Dr. Joshua Gelber2019-08-28T12:45:58-04:00

It’s official. Baby Beverly joined our clan on Saturday evening. Mom was a champ, and powered through to a healthy home arrival just 4 hours later (the beauty of using a midwife is that they come check on you the next day in the comfort of your home). Hayden’s “adapting” – he’ll be a great big brother when he comes to term with sharing his parents. It’s been a busy few days for all of us… So I’m gonna keep this short and sweet. (She’s napping as I write this. I probably should be too.) Anyway, since I’ve been fantasizing about [...]

5 Rules For 100 Years of Quality Life

Dr. Joshua Gelber2019-08-13T12:47:42-04:00

My title today sounds ambitious, it’s true. But I’ve never been more convinced that anyone can enjoy vibrant health and a high standard of life throughout a full 100-year lifespan. We’re taught to think that we’re born, we live, then we get a disease and we die. It doesn’t have to be that way! I’m not saying you can live forever. But you can live up to your potential throughout ALL your years. And it doesn’t have to be that hard. Here are 5 simple rules for 100-years of healthy life: Eat well. Kick the SAD (Standard American Diet) out of [...]

Heat Or Ice? (The Answer Might Surprise You)

Dr. Joshua Gelber2019-08-06T12:34:39-04:00

Today's quick tip might come as a shock to you. I say that because most patients I talk to are confused about this. When you have an acute injury or pain, what should you reach for first, heat or ice? Most patients think it’s heat. And while heat can help in easing tense muscles, the answer is [drum roll please]… ICE. Job #1 in any flare up or sudden pain is controlling inflammation and encouraging proper blood flow. This is what ice does. It constricts the blood vessels so the swelling can go down and, when removed, allows them to expand [...]

Discover This Supermodel’s Secret to Bouncing Back from Pregnancy

Dr. Joshua Gelber2019-06-18T14:12:46-04:00

Forgive me if I haven’t yet shared something personal with you. I’ve been talking about it for a little while now…and it's good news... The wife and I are expecting baby number two! :-) #Blessed With that in mind, here’s a quick “pregnancy care” note: Pregnancy, as beautiful as it is, can be a lot of stress on the body. My wife’s friend commented it can be harder than what marathoners who do 2-3 races in a weekend go through. My wife’s doing fine, thanks. But it’s a great reminder (1) to support your spouse, and… (2) Even just 10-20 pounds [...]

How to Build a Strong Foundation for Your Health

Dr. Joshua Gelber2019-01-08T19:46:27-05:00

Building a strong health foundation in your life is one of the best things you can do for yourself. Once your health is in check, everything else falls into place. It’s easier to meet deadlines at work, have energy for your family, and to feel good in the all through the day, not just in the mornings. When you suffer from poor posture, don’t get quality sleep, eat processed foods, and lack regular exercise, everything starts to fall apart. You end up feeling tired all of the time, your digestion is poor, and you likely end up with body pains. It’s [...]
