Training Tip from Glen

INJURY PREVENTION

Many injuries are the result of poor joint stability and lack of core strength. Be proactive with your fitness routine and perform stability and core exercises to prevent future injury.

GLEN'S PHILOSOPHY:

Still waters run deep. Quiet, confident, compassionate; Glenn is the Clinic’s most well-rounded clinician. Glenn provides the bridge between pain and dysfunction to healthy optimal strength, endurance and lifestyle.
“I strive to listen more then I speak. Patients know more about their health, pain and dysfunction then they think they do; so I want to hear their concerns fully before I make any suggestions for change or treatment. I look for the ideal moment when patient is ready to hear my suggestions and to change his/her life for the better.”
“Patients don’t need to be afraid of pain, but they don’t need to live with it either. I am often surprised to learn how long people will wait before seeking care”

“My ideal patient is a “Baby Boomer” who wants to live life to the fullest, stay active with family, friends, and hobbies with little or no pain.”

How do nuts keep you healthy?

Here are just a few of the ways:

• Nuts taste good, plus they have the "good" kind of fat that helps lower cholesterol.


• Those who eat nuts on a daily basis are less likely to have a heart attack


• Eating nuts lowers the risk of stroke and developing type 2 diabetes, advanced macular degeneration ( a disease of the eye), dementia and gallstones


• Those who eat nuts regularly add two years to their expected life expectancy


• Nuts have relatively high levels of unsaturated fats and low levels of saturated fats which lower cholesterol levels and therefore, lowers your risk of heart disease


• Nuts are rich in fiber, antioxidants and trace minerals

Studies show that eating one to two ounces of nuts each day provides the maximum benefits. What nuts are best? Experts suggest that almonds, peanuts, pine nuts, walnuts, peacans and hazelnuts seem to have the greatest heart-health benefits.
