We ALWAYS see more chiropractic patients when the barometric pressure changes rapidly!

Sunday into Monday features a very strong low pressure system that will move directly over the state. Here's a friendly reminder that we as humans can and do feel effects of weather systems, mainly pressure changes. Achy joints, headaches, and fatigue are main complaints of "human barometers"

Just wanted to give ya a heads up :)

Your Brain’s Future: The Rising Risk of Dementia
Recent research shows that in the U.S., the number of new dementia cases each year is expected to double, rising from around 500,000 to approximately 1 million by 2060.
And if you reach age 55, your lifetime risk of developing dementia is estimated at 42% — meaning 4 in 10 Americans over 55.
Risk is even higher for women (≈48 %) and for Black Americans (≈44 %+) according to recent findings.
That means it’s never too early — or too late — to take your brain health seriously. At McAnsh LIFE-ENERGY Institute, we help you protect that future through improved circulation, mitochondrial support, and nutrient-based strategies that enhance cognitive resilience and overall vitality.

Did you know the “safe” painkiller millions depend on may actually be raising heart risks?
Tramadol was marketed as a gentler alternative to opioids — but new research shows it may double the risk of serious complications like heart trouble and even death, while offering minimal pain relief. For many, the trade-off isn’t worth it.
Pain doesn’t have to be managed with risky chemicals. Nutrient-based approaches that support circulation, reduce inflammation, and restore cellular energy can often bring lasting relief — without damaging the heart.
With gentle chiropractic, therapeutic massage, Class IV laser and nutritional therapy, let us help you get to the cause of your pain, and help correct it!

Ever wonder about the increase in dementia and what drugs are associated?…

Here is a list of a few. Important: This is for informational purposes only and not a substitute for medical advice. Always talk with a doctor or pharmacist before changing any medications.

1. Strong Anticholinergic Medications

These block the neurotransmitter acetylcholine, which is important for memory and cognition. Many studies show a clear association with higher dementia risk.
Examples:
First-generation antihistamines (e.g., Diphenhydramine / Benadryl)
Tricyclic antidepressants (e.g., Amitriptyline [Elavil], Imipramine [Tofranil])
Bladder antimuscarinics for overactive bladder (e.g., Oxybutynin)
Antiparkinson agents, antipsychotics with anticholinergic effects.
What the research shows: Long‐term use (e.g., equivalent of ~3 years or more) was linked to 54% higher dementia risk compared with short‐term use.

2. Benzodiazepines & Hypnotics / Sleep medications

These are medications for anxiety, insomnia, sedation. The evidence is mixed, with some studies finding increased dementia risk, others not.

Examples:
Diazepam (Va**um)
Alprazolam (Xanax)
Hypnotics or sedative “z-drugs” (e.g., Zolpidem)
What the research shows:
A meta-analysis found benzodiazepine use associated with ~1.51x risk of dementia in elderly (for long‐term use) in older studies.
More recent large study found no statistically significant association between benzodiazepine use and dementia (HR ~1.06) when adjusting for many factors.
Take-away: There may be increased risk with long-acting, high cumulative dose, or very long–term use; but results are inconsistent. Use caution especially in older adults and limit long-term use if possible.

3. Other Medication Types with Emerging/Weaker Evidence

Antiepileptics/antiseizure medications: Some anticholinergic ones showed increased risk in anticholinergic studies.
Combination sedative/hypnotic use: Some studies suggest that combined use of different sedative classes increases risk more.
Note: Some other drug classes (e.g., proton-pump inhibitors, certain pain meds) are mentioned in less robust or preliminary studies; the evidence is weaker and sometimes conflicting.

What To Do:

If you or someone you support is on any of these medications long-term (especially the anticholinergic ones or multiple sedatives), discuss with a healthcare provider whether:
a medication review is appropriate,
there are safer alternatives,
the dose or duration can be reduced.
Encourage brain-healthy habits: good sleep; physical activity; vascular health (blood pressure, cholesterol, sugar); nutrition; cognitive engagement.

Do not stop any medication suddenly without medical supervision—many of these drugs need tapering or have withdrawal risks.
