The Gonstead Method @ Elizabethton Chiropractic:

Keep your eyes at the horizon: Our spinal biomechanics are everything, and even though this is a Foot Levelers chart above, It's important to keep your head over your body properly. I recently spoke with a patient about this. Another way to think about this is to keep your eyes at the horizon. When you're standing or sitting at your computer, walking or doing anything else, make sure your eyes stay at the horizon. When the eyes are looking down, soft nerve pathways are cut off causing increased cortisol (a stress hormone that affects insulin, sugar & our immune system function), "Text Neck", dementia (memory loss), Parkinson's disease, and even Alzheimer's symptoms. So get the center of your electronic devices at your horizon. Remember, we go where our eyes go.

 Foot Levelers @ EC:

Did you know custom orthotics are a covered expense under most FSA plans?

Custom orthotics are a great way to invest in your health, and help reduce pain. Plus, Foot Levelers custom orthotics are very comfortable!

And don’t forget to ask about our Take2 Summer special, and in many cases, FSA funds don’t carry over to the next year.

Give us a call today @ 423.543.3337, and we can make an appointment to get your feet scanned. If you have not seen our new colors to our waterproof 3 arch support flip-flop* line, the new shades are ready for a close-up look here.

We are Pulse PEMF Certified:

 We wanted to go over a couple of frequently asked questions about PEMF in the office. Please if you have any questions, let us know so we can share them. So, here they are:

WHAT IS PEMF?

Pulsed Electromagnetic Field technology is a soothing and restorative modality[4,5] that stimulates and exercises the cells to support overall wellness.[1]Put simply, PEMF provides your cells with the energy they need to perform at their highest capacity. 

Studies show PEMF may

● Increase range of motion,[7,8] 

● Generate natural cellular energy[6,7]

● Provide natural support for healthy joint and cartilage function,[9,10]

● Assist with muscle fatigue and discomfort after exercise,[3]

● and Support general relaxation![4,5]

WILL THIS TECHNOLOGY HELP WITH A SPECIFIC INJURY OR
CONDITION?

PEMF is an energy supplement that optimizes the self-healing and self-regulating func-
tion of every cell it interacts with. In its holistic nature, the body uses PEMF as a catalyst

for full-body energy and optimized wellness throughout our many systems. The body,
in its intelligence, may call attention to “hotspots,” areas of low voltage where the body
needs the energy most. Studies show that this process supports relaxation, increases
energy, and enhances the natural recovery process.
