Free In-Office Seminar, Tuesday, June 14th., 6:30pm

Would you recognize what occurs to your body when a traumatic event happens to you? Would you be ready to deal with this trauma looking for and receiving appropriate treatment? Or Would you ignore the problem until your body cannot keep up with the struggle anymore and may end up needing conventional surgery or prescription drugs?

 

Visceral Manipulation enhances bodily functions, evaluating and treating the dynamic suspension and movement of the organs and the structure of the body (including the muskulo-skeletal, nervous, vascular, lymphatic, respiratory, and digestive systems).

Visceral Manipulation frees the body from pain, restriction and dysfunction.

Research and multiple comparative studies around the world, have shown that Visceral Manipulation is beneficial in the treatment of many disorders, including but not limited to:

Simple Treatment with Amazing Results

We are thrilled with the results our patients have been experiencing from the Pulsed Electro-Magnetic Field (PEMF) therapy. After much research Dr. Schoen added this treatment to our practice protocols because she realized that this simple therapy is able to relieve pain and enhance the effectiveness of other treatments.

PEMF has been shown to relieve pain from arthritis as well as soft tissue pain. There is also evidence that PEMF has the ability to facilitate cell regeneration, relieve edema and speed up healing of wounds.

Tuesday, May 10^th at 6:30pm Dr. Schoen will discuss and demonstrate the benefits of PEMF. Please join us for this in-office seminar in Winter Park at 1850 Lee Road, Suite 240. RSVP 407-644-2729 or email through our website www.midfloridamedicalgroup.com

Relieve Pain, Enhance Healing!

Joya Schoen, M.D. and Claudia Chica, PT, AP are offering a free seminar on ways that Pulsed Electro-Magnetic Field (PEMF) and Visceral Manipulation can enhance healing and relieve pain.

The statistics are startling:

· 28% of Americans are in pain at any given time

· $2.6 Billion is spent annually on non-prescription pain killers

· $13.8 Billion is spent annually on prescription pain killers

· $60 Billion lost annually due to lost productivity related to pain

· Reducing inflammation is critical to eliminating pain and preventing disease and illness, but how do you do it safely and naturally?

Pulsed Magnetic Field Therapy re-energizes damaged cells by inducing electrical changes within the cell that restore it to it’s normal healthy state. Because of this, cellular metabolism is boosted, blood cells are regenerated, circulation is improved and oxygen carrying capacity is increased. Ultimately, the immune system becomes healthier, the nervous system relaxes, bones and joints become stronger and vital organs such as the liver, kidneys and colon are able to rid themselves of impurities thus detoxifying the body. Pulsed Magnetic Field Therapy can reduce pain and improve the quality of life by allowing your body to function as it was designed

to do.

Visceral Manipulation is used to locate and solve problems throughout the body. It encourages your own natural mechanisms to improve the functioning of your organs, dissipate the negative effects of stress, enhance mobility of the musculoskeletal system through the connective tissue attachments, and influence general metabolism. Visceral Manipulation is based on the specific placement of soft manual forces to encourage the normal mobility, tone and motion of the viscera and their connective tissues. These gentle manipulations can potentially improve the functioning of individual organs, the systems the organs function within, and the structural integrity of the entire body.

These non-invasive treatments are the obvious wave of the future!

Join Dr. Schoen and Dr. Chica May 10^th & June 14^th 6:30pm, you will be amazed and glad you did. RSVP 407-644-2729 or email through website: www.midfloridamedicalgroup.com

Dr Joya on Fatigue, Pt. 1

The term adrenal fatigue was introduced in 1998 but it has long been experienced by many people. Chronic stress such as poor nutrition, lack of sleep, and over exertion, our adrenal glands tend to produce excessive quantities of hormones as a response to the stress. And, when this happens, our adrenal glands will eventually wear out from exhaustion, which will in turn produce low quantities of hormones in our body.
We will eventually feel more tired or exhausted than what we normally feel on a day to day basis. This can often result in craving for sugary snacks or caffeine in order for our body to get the energy levels up. This exhaustion causes even more stress and we find that we are not able to function normally or think clearly.
Helping patients regain energy and strength for healing is one of Dr. Schoen's gifts. She is willing to spend the time necessary with her patients and to study their individual case to reach the recommendations she feels will improve their level of health.

Change is Inevitable – Improvement is Optional

As I was chatting with a patient about good nutrition and weight loss this week she mentioned that she has lost hundreds pounds in her life but she always gains them back. This is an experience that many of us have had as we attempt to improve ourselves and keep our body at a healthy weight.

Health experts as well as our moms have shared the advice needed to give us a healthy life. The following is just a short list of the ideas I have heard and read lately.

• Mini goals are easier to achieve and will help me reach my ultimate goal. By congratulating myself as I make even the smallest changes allows me to feel accomplished and gives me the energy needed to continue. So I look at the big picture, having the ultimate goal in mind, but breaking it down to achievable actions.


• Journal and Track. Connecting food to energy and mood. There is a corresponding positive result when I keep track of what I'm eating and how it makes me feel. Some nutritional counselors claim that a person who keeps track of what they eat and how it makes them feel can lose twice as much weight as a person who doesn't take the time to jot it down. For that result I'm certainly willing to write it down and I even found some neat iphone Apps to help me do this.


• Pay attention to my food while eating. This seems like a "no brainer" but this is one thing that gets many people into trouble. Eating while on the computer or while watching television contributes to me losing track of what and how much I am actually consuming.
  


• Flavor my foods with spices and herbs. Monitoring my calorie intake doesn't need to mean boring foods. I experiment with the flavors I enjoy while leaving out the "bad for me" calories. Recipes for low calorie dips and salad dressing can add a lot of flavor to meals.


• Lift it and Move it. The more muscle mass I have the more calories I will burn even while sleeping. Strength training even just a couple times a week can make a big difference in my metabolism's ability to burn calories. When I add some type of aerobic fun to my week I can certainly burn some calories and help my heart.


• Set time to rest and relax. Stress hormones have been tied to weight gain. Planning times to do things for myself like reading, gardening or taking a stroll to clear my head can help me keep my stress hormones at a proper level.


• Sleep. Getting enough sleep is vitally important to keeping my appetite controlling hormones in check. An imbalance in these hormones affects me in such a way that when I don't get enough sleep I am less likely to do any of the above suggestions.


• One day at time while I hang in there for the long haul. Being aware that changing my habits can take time and that getting results may be a delayed gratification I congratulate myself at the end of each day when I've had positive changes and I look forward to tomorrow if I need to improve on my today.
