NOTE: There will be no class this Friday.


Here's something my trusty chiropractor, Dr. Rob Smith of Discover Life Chiropractic, sent me. He knows that I find this stuff uber interesting and I think you will too. Amost all, if not all of us know someone with this condition. I can think of at least a dozen just while writing this brief stint of an intro. It's a very serious condition as you'll most-definitely be able to gather from the article.

HOW MUCH DOES YOUR HEAD WEIGH?

Isn't it amazing how interconnected our body systems are?

I know that you hear me talk about this all the time (typically relating it to musculoskeletal issues and how one joint/movement fault/tight muscle affects what's directly above and below said problem and the continuing downstream/upstream effects that can result from a single issue...for more on this topic see: Improved Performance Is Only 2mins. Away: Part II) but this one even goes into how your gastrointestinal, cardiorespiratory, and nervous systems are affected by seemingly one single postural deficiency. Whoda' thunk that how much you poop throughout the day could be affected by the postion of your head!
