My healthiest patients are the ones who do yoga. Very simply, joints that don’t move enough are going to decay.  If you want to keep your spine and other joints healthy and young, you have to keep them moving.  Our sedentary, desk bound lifestyles are wreaking havoc with our general health and creating an epidemic …

As someone who has suffered numerous low back injuries (even one where I managed to fracture a vertebra in my spine), I can definitely empathize with people who are suffering with low back pain. According to the American Chiropractic Association, anywhere from 70 to 85% of the adult population will experience low back pain.  In …

I guess this week, it’s yoga that’s bad for us. Last week it was vitamins, supplements, fruits and vegetables.  The week before, organic foods were dangerous and organic co-ops were being raided by authorities.  The week before that, it became illegal in Europe to claim that drinking water could prevent dehydration.  It seems like all things …

Yoga is one of the best things you could ever do for yourself. Over the years, without a doubt, my healthiest patients have always been my “yoga patients”.  My yogis and yoginis respond better to treatment and require less care (adjustments) then my typical office worker-type-patients.  Often times these people have very minor issues and/or …

With better body function, you heal better and you feel better. An easy way to improve nutrition is by adding something healthy like hummus …

We all know that we can improve our health by eating a healthier diet.  We all know we need to eat better.  And I’m sure for the most part we know what ‘eating better’ means.  We know that we are what we eat. But yet, very few of us choose to eat a ‘healthy’ diet. …

While I’m still a relative newcomer to Montreal and all that it has to offer, I wanted to compile a list of health resources that I’ve used/tried, or that have been strongly recommended to me by my patients. It’s by no means an exhaustive list of health resources in Montreal and I plan on updating …

I guess it’s about time I addressed what this modern-day, “health” epidemic actually was.  While I’ve just started this blog/website and not a lot of people have seen it (yet), almost everyone asks, “What modern-day epidemic are you talking about?” I believe we’re experiencing a modern-day epidemic of declining health and degenerative disease.
