Happy 22nd birthday to Griffin Bradley. Great picture from before the holidays. If you're a golfer, this is a really good set-up to hit a golf ball a long long way!

Tuesday, March 29th 2022 will be my last day to see patients in my Eufaula private practice office.

I have been honored to have had the opportunity to serve the many thousands of patients that we've been blessed to care for in my Eufaula private practice over the past 25+ years.

I will continue practicing full time and be available to the patient base of the Muskogee Creek Nation Department of Health - Eufaula Indian Health Center (MCNDH EIHC) Monday's through Friday's per the MCNDH EIHC schedule. The MCNDH EIHC contact number for Chiropractic/Physical Medicine is: (918) 618-4413. If you are a patient of the MCNDH, you should be utilizing the EIHC for my services. It's a wonderful benefit and something that is currently underutilized.

For patients in my private practice that have been seen as an active patient over the past five years - that aren't able to see me through the MCNDH EIHC - you may request a copy of your records from us M-F, 7 am to 12 pm at (918) 689-2424. We need advanced notice to pull your file, copy those records and make them available to you. Additionally, I have a chiropractic physician that I will recommend to you should you need chiropractic care in the future. We'll be happy to provide you with that contact information upon your request.

Thank you for the trust and confidence you have put in me and in my staff over the years.

This injury (broken ribs) was reported to have happened one week earlier. Ask yourself this medical ethics question: Should an athlete be allowed to play a contact sport with an injury like this before it's completely healed? Follow-up question: Should you cover your check engine light with electrical tape while driving your vehicle on a long trip?

My goal this summer was to have all of my hibiscus in bloom at the same time. Today is the day.

Thought I'd share a few pics of some of my hibiscus in bloom this morning. Enjoy.

On this day in 1987 my best man (Brent Kondritz) and myself were sitting on the first base side of home plate between home plate and the Cardinals dugout about 15 rows up..... It is my understanding that Major League Baseball changed their give away policy AFTER this incident. Watch till the end and enjoy. We may or may not have tossed ours and many others that were raining down on us from the upper deck onto the field. KB :>) I'm missing Cardinals baseball!

The first time this information was brought to my attention was in 1990 from my organic chemistry professor. If you drink diet drinks and/or consume products artificially sweetened with aspartame, give this a very close read. Chewing gum and breath mints are also commonly sweetened with this product. I care about your health and I spout this information verbally all the time. Ask my kids about reading labels so as to avoid any product containing this chemical. In life, we sometimes have to pick our battles, this is one that I picked in 1990 and I stick to it to this day. Dr. B :>)

It hides behind brand names such as NutraSweet, Equal, Spoonful, and Equal-Measure, but its makers cannot mask the fact that it accounts for 75 percent of the adverse reactions to food additives reported to the FDA.

Nice short bit of good advice on winter hydration. Don't forget to take a gender specific multi-vitamin to ensure you're receiving the vitamins, minerals and phyto- nutrients your body HAS to have to maintain running at 100% of YOUR potential. We have the gender specific supplements here at the office. Don't waste your money on the supplements at the big box stores, most of those products are junk. The supplements we recommend at the office are safe, effective and inexpensive. Have an informed day. Dr. B :>)

Pretty good short article about rest for athletes. This is always on my mind as area high schools end their football seasons and the kids are expected to go immediately into another high impact sport. This is a transitional period of the year where I see injuries in conditioned athletes as they go abruptly into their next sport. Let the kids rest for a week or two. One thing this article leaves-out is the importance of a routine chiropractic adjustment. The best athletes in the world get adjusted frequently to ensure that their spine and nervous system is working at its maximum potential. KB :>)

SO, 3rd & 11 - 7 minutes left in the 3rd quarter, Rudolph gets sandwiched between two Ravens defenders, the player in the front made contact with the left mandibular area on Rudolph's lower face mask, and boom boom boom, out go the lights. Any time a loss of consciousness occurs, the injury MUST be treated as guilty until proven innocent. I am in complete disbelief that the Steelers medical staff allowed him to sit-up and then stand-up.... they did remove his face mask and leave the helmet on and they had the EMS on the field with backboard etc (following proper protocols)..... then they deviated from the standard of care and let him move his head and neck when he was allowed to sit-up and eventually stand-up. Just FYI, deviating from the "standard of care" in a situation like this constitutes willful and wanton negligence.... and remember if the injured athlete is under 18 years old and you don't have written or implied consent, putting your hands on the kid is also considered "assault". If you have a professional license and you aren't there in an "official" capacity AND/OR it's a player for the other team and you haven't received verbal consent befor the game began, you might not be protected under Good Samaritan Law either..... ALWAYS treat a loss of consciousness as guilty until proven innocent. The other problem with this incident is that two of his team mates placed hands on him giving him a little shake to try to wake him up... another HUGE no no... teach your athletes to keep their hands off an injured team mate .... as hard as that is to do .... I can show a BUNCH of video's of paralytic football hits where the team mates rolled-over their injured buddy and potentially made the injury MUCH worse. Hands-off! medical staff will be out there ASAP, until then, hands off! This reminds me of the "6 P's" which I actually teach... If your team doesn't have procedures and professionals in place to handle these injuries and/or doesn't practice and drill to handle these types of injuries, we provide this basic training. Give me a shout and we'll get arrangements made to get your adult coaches some knowledge and skill sets to make sure something like this doesn't turn into a tragedy. Dr. B :>)

The NFL is reportedly looking into why a cart could not be used to help Rudolph off the field, which drew criticism from the NFL Players Association.
