If you have visited our clinic lately, you may have noticed we have been making some technology updates. Our improved communication system allows us to easily provide a reminder the day before your visit and more easily communicate with you by text or email if needed.

During busy times of the year with extra stress, nutritional and herbal support can help improve your body's resilience and minimize the impact of that stress. Ongoing high levels of stress can negatively affect your health in multiple ways, including the amplification of aches and pains with increased levels of inflammation. Two popular options for stress support we like to use with our patients include Standard Process' Drenamin and MediHerb's Adrenal Complex. Both of these can be used for short term or longer chronic stress to improve the body’s resilience to the demands of life. Standard Process Drenamin Drenamin is an adrenal function & energy production support supplement, with vitamins involved in production of neurotransmitters associated with emotional balance. The adrenal glands play an important role in the body's response to stress and Drenamin is designed to provide nutrients that support a well-functioning adrenal gland. A healthy stress response is beneficial for energy levels and mood. Drenamin includes nutrients from whole foods like liver, adrenals, stomach, yeast, alfalfa, buckwheat, bone, mushroom, sweet potato and more.
MediHerb Adrenal Complex
Adrenal Complex contains Licorice and Rehmannia used traditionally to support adrenal gland function for a healthy stress response. These herbs have been recognized as helping the body adapt to the challenges of everyday life. While these nutritional support products can be beneficial, those with ongoing issues should also consider strategies to help reduce their chronic stress. These strategies to reduce stress include spending time in nature, performing an enjoyable physical activity, increasing quality sleep, avoiding junk food and increasing nutrient dense whole foods, taking a quiet break during the day, and spending time with those you enjoy. Combining healthy habits with extra nutritional support can significantly help you reduce the effects of stress and make you more resilient to the challenges of life.  Dr. Aaron McMichael was recently awarded 2023 Ohio State Chiropractic Association District Director of the year and re-elected to serve as Speaker of the Board in 2024. Dr. McMichael noted, “It is an honor to be recognized for my service to chiropractic patients and doctors as part of the OSCA Board of Directors. I appreciate my fellow directors vote of support to continue serving in the additional role of Speaker of the Board."
"There is still a lot of work do do to improve patient access to the services we provide as doctors of chiropractic. Even though research and treatment guidelines have identified chiropractic as a first line treatment for pain and musculoskeletal problems, insurers and employers have been slow to modernize and improve their health coverage of our services. I look forward to working with my colleagues at OSCA to make more progress for Ohio chiropractors and their patients.” Dr. McMichael has served as OSCA District Director for Stark and surrounding counties since 2019, working on OSCA committees including Public Health/Opioid Task Force, Legislative & Regulatory, Budget & Finance, and Payer Relations. He has served in the role of Speaker of the Board for the past three years. He added, “My parents taught me the importance of not just serving patients in the clinic, but serving the profession and working to help more patients access chiropractic care.” |
