Active second careers: Becoming personal trainers 

 
http://woffordchiropractic.com/services.html

Many people enter the retirement years vowing to be more physically active, but others are putting more muscle into their goals: They're becoming personal trainers.
There was a 7% increase in certified personal trainers age 40 and older between 2012 and 2013, according to a survey of 2,500 fitness professionals conducted by the National Academy of Sports Medicine, which certifies personal trainers.
This reflects a national trend that shows many people want to work out with a trainer of a similar age or someone who has an understanding of their bodies and their limitations, says Andrew Wyant, the group's president. "A lot of folks like to be able to identify with their trainer, and the trainer should be aspirational as well as inspirational."

More than 36,000 chiropractors were paid nearly $500 million by the federal government in 2012, making chiropractors one of the largest groups of Medicare providers. And one chiropractor in Brooklyn topped the list, receiving more than $1 million that year alone.
Alexander Khavash, who works in Brooklyn out of a rented office, received nearly twice the Medicare payments than any other practitioner in his field, according to data released this month by the Department of Health and Human Services.
Overall, chiropractors provided 21 million taxpayer-funded treatments for 2.5 million beneficiaries, the Medicare data show. But just 600 chiropractors, including Khavash, accounted for more than 10% of the Medicare payments.
Khavash was the only chiropractor in the top 1% of all individual practitioners paid by Medicare in 2012. According to the Medicare data, he performed more than 42,000 procedures on more than 2,500 patients.
Early last week, Khavash denied doing that many procedures and refused to comment about the $1 million. Then, in an interview at his office Saturday, he said he had eight chiropractors working for him and using his identification number in 2012. He declined to provide the chiropractors' names, but said Medicare is aware of them. He said they work at different locations than he did in 2012.
He now works out of a Brooklyn physical therapy practice and says he has four chiropractors working for him out of other locations. "I go by the book," Khavash said. "I earned my license. It took me a long time to earn it. I'm not about to mess it up by playing games with Medicare, or any insurance for that matter."

Has the hypomobile manipulable joint lesion been demonstrated to exist?

Historically the manipulable joint lesion has, from the beginning of the chiropractic profession, been described as a painful stiff joint. Joint stiffness, commonly called hypomobility (also known in the chiropractic profession as "fixation") has become by consensus one of the most important aspects of the manipulable joint lesion in the professions of chiropractic, osteopathy, and manual medicine.Nearly 100 years of clinical agreement between three separate professions supports the existence of such a lesion although research now supports its existence.

Drivers Education

We all know someone who has suffered a serious driving-related injury that had nothing to do with being involved in a motor vehicle accident. For example, turning your head suddenly and swiftly forward Learn more...



Why do such injuries happen? The cause is the same as for the person who, while getting dressed in the morning, bends over to put on his or her socks, stockings, or tights and experiences a sudden, sharp pain in the low back. Later on, that pain may worsen and radiate down one leg, and a likely diagnosis of a herniated disc may ensue.
