Apr 05, 2011 02:03AM ● By James DeFillips

Schools around the country and here in Florida provide much less time for physical education than children received twenty years ago.

Natural Treatments in Brevard County

Apr 05, 2011 01:53AM ● By Holly Fales

Although medication for ADHD eases some of the symptoms while it is in effect, it does not improve the condition of the brain or produce any recovery of skills.

Today’s women not only fill the demanding roles of our predecessors, but face many new challenges and responsibilities that have come with the New Millennium. We are often the person "bringing home the bacon" (or tofu) and "frying it up in the pan". Many have, consciously or unconsciously, taken on too much.

Spinal Decompression, is it Right for You?

Apr 04, 2011 03:11PM ● By By Dr. Stephen H. Canuel

This technique of spinal decompression therapy, that is, unloading due to distraction and positioning, has shown the ability to gently separate the vertebrae from each other, creating a vacuum inside the discs that we are targeting. This "vacuum effect" is also known as negative intra-discal pressure.
