Consistency – The Key To Exercise

Madosky Chiropractic & Acupuncture Center Posted on January 4, 2018 by adminJanuary 4, 2018

It is resolution time following a holiday season of overeating (me too) as we try to “right the ship” and return to a healthier lifestyle. Internet pop-ups, magazines, radio and TV ads use words like: quick, simple and easy trying to convince us to buy their diet and exercise programs. One word not often mentioned is consistency. A consistent approach to our health is not considered hip or sexy but it is essential to bringing us the greatest results improving our strength, mobility and flexibility.  Consistency helps us create and maintain short and long term gains. In my practice I … Continue reading

“Hard Choices, easy life. Easy choices, hard life.” ~ Jerzey Gregorek

Madosky Chiropractic & Acupuncture Center Posted on December 12, 2017 by adminDecember 11, 2017

Everything we do comes down to making a choice.  At times those choices come from collecting and processing data.  At times they come from a feeling, intuition or emotion.  I believe we are at our best when our decisions integrate both deliberation and emotion.  Decisions are often fluid because we change and circumstances change.  The constant is our commitment to the process.  Commitment requires an awareness of how we make those decisions. When I first came across the quote from Jerzey Gregorek I wanted to argue with his premise – not all choices have to be hard to make an … Continue reading

Begin At Start: First Steps to Improving Your Health

Madosky Chiropractic & Acupuncture Center Posted on January 4, 2016 by adminJune 15, 2019

A New Year with New Intentions – where do you begin? Exercise, sleep, better food? I recommend that you begin with food.  Why? Because you eat every day! Improving the quality and quantity of food sets the stage for everything else.   Changing your food awareness  means keeping track of what you eat. Yikes!  Fortunately there are several free on-line services that will help. My favorite is My Fitness Pal.   In just a few short minutes you can establish an account and create goals. The main purpose of these sites is to help you improve your awareness and make … Continue reading

A King, a Prince and a Pauper – An Eating Strategy

Madosky Chiropractic & Acupuncture Center Posted on March 10, 2015 by adminSeptember 17, 2015

A King, a Prince and a Pauper No, not the beginning of a bar joke  but instead one of the eating strategies that I commonly recommend to my patients. The actual adage is: “Eat like a king at breakfast, a prince at lunch and a pauper at dinner.”  This means that you eat your largest meal at breakfast, a moderate meal at lunch and your smallest meal at dinner. Unfortunately, this eating strategy is in complete opposition to how most of us eat and perhaps why most of us have a disproportionate height to weight ratio – we weigh too … Continue reading

Back Pain Can Impact Sexuality

Madosky Chiropractic & Acupuncture Center Posted on January 27, 2015 by adminMarch 15, 2015

Back Pain Can Impact Sexuality and Affect Relationships Understanding Problem and Open Communication is Best Medicine Back pain can be a pervasive condition impacting every aspect of our lives: physical, emotional and social. One of the least talked and most sensitive areas that back pain affects is our sexuality. Back pain can limit the movement, level of comfort and enjoyment of physical intimacy. This pain not only affects our sexuality; it influences our primary relationships and often how we view ourselves as women or men. How does back pain affect our sex lives?   Back pain can limit our physical … Continue reading

What Motivates You to Change – Begin At Start

Madosky Chiropractic & Acupuncture Center Posted on January 27, 2015 by adminMarch 15, 2015

What Motivates You to Change – Begin At Start Change is difficult especially for long standing habits.  Creating a clear starting point is a good first step especially when you want to improve your health.  During the past two years I have discovered that the starting point I needed was to record my daily food intake and exercise with the goal of gradual weight reduction and increased strength.  As of today, I am three months into recording my daily food consumption and exercise.  So far the exercise part has been easy and the food part enlightening.  Quite frankly calories add … Continue reading

What motivates you to be healthy?

Madosky Chiropractic & Acupuncture Center Posted on January 27, 2015 by adminMarch 15, 2015

What motivates you to be healthy? When I turned 60 in 2011 I decided to work to improve my overall health by eliminating or controlling detrimental habits and creating better one allowing me to traverse my 60’s and the decades to follow.  This included increasing lean body mass and reducing the percentage of body fat through exercise and eating; improving my endurance and flexibility and of course using chiropractic and acupuncture to keep my immune system strong. Over the past 16 months I have created many positive changes and I am now fine tuning this process by keeping a record … Continue reading

3 Meals or Several?

Madosky Chiropractic & Acupuncture Center Posted on January 27, 2015 by adminMarch 15, 2015

The Question—Should I Eat Three Meals a Day or Several? Many of us do not function well eating three meals daily and have turned instead to eating several small meals to help us maintain our energy throughout the day. Primarily, small meals allow us to sustain our blood sugar levels, preventing the highs and lows often associated with eating three large meals.   Most small meal plans use a 5-6 meal strategy balancing amounts of protein, carbohydrates and fats and calories at each meal. Because overeating is the most common problem encountered it is imperative that you keep a food … Continue reading

Weight Training: A Benefit Or A Risk For People With Chronic Low Back Pain

Madosky Chiropractic & Acupuncture Center Posted on January 27, 2015 by adminApril 24, 2017

Weight Training: A Benefit Or A Risk For People With Chronic Low Back Pain? People with chronic back pain live with the uncertainty that they may re-injure their backs at any time and for any reason – big or little. Their fear of back pain caused by new injuries often causes them to limit what they do and how often they do it. Limiting overall activity makes some sense because it limits the chances of hurting your back again. However, limiting your activities can also lead to a poorly conditioned body that lacks muscle tone and strength, which increases the … Continue reading
