Dorn Method

Have you heard about the spine alignment technique called the Dorn Method? It is a gentle form of therapy that aligns the spine and the whole skeletal system.

The system applies gentle manipulation to put the spine back into alignment. The method is not only applied to the spine but to the whole skeletal system easing joint problems. It helps in alleviating back pains, skeletal pains and other chronic conditions.

As compared to Chiropractice, it doesn't employ sudden twisting, cracking or pressure that surprises the muscles rendering them injured or "cautious" the next time. The Dorn Method employs counter pressure or counter weight, which means that as one side is being realigned, the opposite side must be in motion to loosen the muscles so that the vertebra or the spine can be shifted back into its proper alignment more easily and effectively. This means that there is no muscle damage and the repositioning is held better. Each Dorn Method treatment procedure starts from the alignment of the legs, the repositioning of the hip joints, the knees and ankles. After which, the process continues to the whole spine, the collar bones, shoulders, elbows, wrists and fingers. You'll feel like a brand new you after a treatment.

These are some of the physical conditions that can be helped by Dorn Method:

-Sciatica
-Back Pains
-Scoliosis
-Joint Pains
-Migraine

Rhythm for Weight Loss

Life is a rhythm. We sleep to recharge, wake-up to do our daily duties and sleep again once the day ends. Within the day there are also routines or scheduled activities. In essence, we live and breathe these daily routines. Let us connect this rhythmic style to weight loss.

Proper nutrition involves being satisfied with what you ate, no matter what it is. Being dissatisfied only means that you did not get proper nutrition from the food you ate. Obesity or being overweight is actually a sign of malnutrition since the body keeps asking for more food and if you don't give your body the proper nourishment, it will never be satisfied, hence, it will ask for more food until it gets the proper vitamins and minerals that it needs.

Ah... going back to rhythm. To keep the body in an ideal size and weight, first, as I mentioned earlier, each meal has to be satisfying. Proper take-in of food or scheduling is also essential. Breakfast, lunch and dinner should be taken in at regular intervals and at the proper times of the day. This is where rhythm comes in. We have alternate between getting full and getting hungry. Hence, the importance of being properly nourished or satisfied with every meal. That way, we don't grab quick fixes and snacks between meals. These quick fixes and snacks really do harm in terms of weight gain.

In summary, if you are truly satisfied with every meal, you won't reach for snacks and other quick fixes that can lead to big time weight gain. Also, be aware or conscious while eating. Ask yourself, am I satisfied? Is this enough? That way, you train yourself to become more aware when you are full or if what you ate is already enough. Your body will become more attuned to its needs. The body also needs a break from digesting. This is still on rhythm.

Try it for a week and you will also notice that you can train yourself to eat just the proper amount of food at the same time.
