Chiropractic for the Flu?

Did you know that during the Flu Epidemic of 1917-1918 (Spanish Flu), Chiropractors were so successful with treating people with the flu that it lead to chiropractic being licensed in many different states in America?

It’s true. According to the World Chiropractic Alliance, an international organization associated with the United Nations Department of Public Health, Chiropractic was recorded to save up to 1 in every 1,700 treated as compared to western medical treatment which was recorded to save 1 in every 15 treated.

“Chiropractic adjustments have a positive effect on how the immune system functions.”

Chiropractors correct spinal misalignments which can cause nervous interference or “static” in the system. When there is “static” interfering with the communication system of the body, it hinders all systems from working at their optimum, including the immune system. When … Read More »

I recently was invited to go boating on the Delta with some BNI members who belong to my EBAR Chapter. At the time I agreed I figured my workload would be such that being out of the office for most of the day would not impact me that much.

I was also feeling a bit guilty about being out of the office and on a boat, enjoying the sun and BNI friends while deadlines and client requests loomed in my mind. How is this going to result in business? What if … fill in the blank … happens?

Well, I’m glad I went ahead and went on the trip. It turned out to be a beautiful day, and I got to know my fellow BNI members a bit better and in a setting where they were more relaxed. Not only that, but … Read More »

Most people think that Estate Planning is planning only for death. That means, selecting a Guardian to take care of your minor children, and making sure that your Beneficiaries receive your assets when you die.

Estate Planning is more than planning for death.  A good Estate Plan will protect you at incapacity.  You -not the courts- keep control of your assets and decisions about your medical care when you are still alive but no longer able to handle your affairs.  This is why you must include a  Durable Power of Attorney and an Advanced Healthcare Directive in your Estate Plan.

On April 18th, EBAR BNI teamed up with the good folks at Rebuilding Together Oakland to help refurbish a home of an elderly woman in Oakland.

We came into the process a little late this year, but Tim & Koy from Fitzgerald Abbott & Beardsley had put in a lot of work prepping the house and planning the 3 weekend long renovation process. However me made great progress and helped make some improvements and move the project along towards it’s desired goal of improving Ms. T’s home.
