Ear infection of the middle ear, is an infection behind the eardrum. The middle ear is the air-filled space behind the eardrum that contains the small bones of the ear.

Signs and symptoms common in children include:
-Ear pain, especially when lying down
-Tugging or pulling at an ear
-Trouble sleeping
-Crying more than usual
-Fussiness
-Trouble hearing or responding to sounds
-Loss of balance
-Fever of 100 F (38 C) or higher
-Drainage of fluid from the ear
-Headache
-Loss of appetite

Common signs and symptoms in adults include:
-Ear pain
-Drainage of fluid from the ear
-Trouble hearing

The cause of ear infection is a virus or bacteria in the middle ear. The infection is usually results from another illness, such as the cold or flu, that causes congestion and swelling of nasal passages, throat, and eustachian tubes.

Conditions of the middle ear that may be related to an ear infection or result in similar middle ear problems include:
-Otitis media with effusion, or swelling and fluid buildup (effusion) in the middle ear without bacterial or viral infection. This may occur because the fluid buildup persists after an ear infection has gotten better. It may also occur because of some dysfunction or noninfectious blockage of the eustachian tubes.
-Chronic otitis media with effusion, occurs when fluid remains in the middle ear and continues to return without bacterial or viral infection. This makes children susceptible to new ear infections and may affect hearing.
-Chronic suppurative otitis media, an ear infection that doesn't go away with the usual treatments. This can lead to a hole in the eardrum.

Risk factors for ear infections include:
-Age. Children between the ages of 6 months and 2 years are more susceptible to ear infections because of the size and shape of their eustachian tubes and because their immune systems are still developing.
-Group child care. Children cared for in group settings are more likely to get colds and ear infections than are children who stay home. The children in group settings are exposed to more infections, such as the common cold.
-Infant feeding. Babies who drink from a bottle, especially while lying down, tend to have more ear infections than do babies who are breast-fed.
-Seasonal factors. Ear infections are most common during the fall and winter. People with seasonal allergies may have a greater risk of ear infections when pollen counts are high.
-Poor air quality. Exposure to tobacco smoke or high levels of air pollution can increase the risk of ear infections.
-Cleft palate. Differences in the bone structure and muscles in children who have cleft palates may make it more difficult for the eustachian tube to drain.

The following tips may reduce the risk of developing ear infections:
-Prevent common colds and other illnesses. Teach your children to wash their hands frequently and thoroughly and to not share eating and drinking utensils. Teach your children to cough or sneeze into their elbow. If possible, limit the time your child spends in group child care. A child care setting with fewer children may help. Try to keep your child home from child care or school when ill.
-Avoid secondhand smoke. Make sure that no one smokes in your home. Away from home, stay in smoke-free environments.
-Breast-feed your baby. If possible, breast-feed your baby for at least six months. Breast milk contains antibodies that may offer protection from ear infections.
-If you bottle-feed, hold your baby in an upright position. Avoid propping a bottle in your baby's mouth while he or she is lying down. Don't put bottles in the crib with your baby.
-Talk to your doctor about vaccinations. Ask your doctor about what vaccinations are appropriate for your child. Seasonal flu shots, pneumococcal and other bacterial vaccines may help prevent ear infections

Treatment for Ear Infection:
-Wait and See approach: most of the time ear infections will clear up on their own
-Antibiotics: treatment with antibiotics might be helpful for certain children with ear infections. On the other hand, using antibiotics too often can cause bacteria to become resistant to the medicine.
-Ear Tubes: a surgeon cuts a hole in the eardrum and inserts a small tube to aid in draining fluid.

Chiropractic Care for Ear Infection:
-Correcting misalignment issues and subluxations that may be preventing natural fluid drainage could help to drastically improve ear health and function in a way that treats and prevents childhood ear infections.

Vertigo is a sensation of motion or spinning often described as dizziness. It is not the same as being light-headed. People with vertigo feel as thought they are actually spinning or moving or that the world is spinning around them.

There are 2 types of Vertigo: peripheral and central
Peripheral Vertigo: a problem in the part of the inner ear that control balance.
Causes:
-Benign positional vertigo (benign paroxysmal positional vertigo: BPPV)
-certain medications that are toxic to the inner ear structure
-head injury
-inflammation of the vestibular nerve (neuritis)
-irritation and swelling of the inner ear (labryinthits)
-Meniere disease
-pressure on the vestibule nerve- usually from a noncancerous tumor
Central Vertigo: problem in the brain usually in the brain stem or cerebellum
Causes:
-Blood vessel disease
-certain drugs
-multiple sclerosis
-seizures (rarely)
-strokes
-tumors (cancerous and noncancerous)
-vestibular migraine

Symptoms of Vertigo:
The main symptom is the sensation that you or the room is moving or spinning. This sensation may cause nausea or vomiting.
Depending on the cause, other symptoms:
-problems focusing the eyes
-dizziness
-hearing loss in one or both ears
-loss of balance that may cause falls
-ringing in the ears
-nausea and vomiting
With central vertigo:
-difficulty swallowing
-double vision
-eye movement problems
-facial paralysis
-slurred speech
-weakness in limbs

Treatment for Vertigo:
-Eply maneuver to help reset the balance organ
-exercises to restore a sense of balance and strengthen the muscles to prevent falls

Complications:
Vertigo may interfere with driving, work, and lifestyle. It can cause falls which leads to injuries.

Chiropractic care for Vertigo:
Chiropractic manipulations return the upper cervical spine and repositions the neck back to the optimal position to reduce dizziness and improve balance and coordination.

October is Breast Cancer Awareness month.

What is Breast Cancer: a cancer that forms in the tissue of the breasts

Causes of Breast Cancer:
Doctors know that breast cancer occurs when some breast cells begin to grow abnormally. These cells divide more rapidly than healthy cells do and continue to accumulate, forming a lump or mass. Cells may spread (metastasize) through your breast to your lymph nodes or to other parts of your body.

Signs and Symptoms of Breast Cancer:
-A breast lump or thickening that feels different from the surrounding tissue
-Change in the size, shape or appearance of a breast
-Changes to the skin over the breast, such as dimpling
-A newly inverted nipple
-Peeling, scaling, crusting or flaking of the pigmented area of skin surrounding the nipple (areola) or breast skin
-Redness or pitting of the skin over your breast, like the skin of an orange

Risk Factors for Developing Breast Cancer:
-Being female. Women are much more likely than men are to develop breast cancer.
-Increasing age. Your risk of breast cancer increases as you age.
-A personal history of breast conditions. If you've had a breast biopsy that found lobular carcinoma in situ (LCIS) or atypical hyperplasia of the breast, you have an increased risk of breast cancer.
-A personal history of breast cancer. If you've had breast cancer in one breast, you have an increased risk of developing cancer in the other breast.
-A family history of breast cancer. If your mother, sister or daughter was diagnosed with breast cancer, particularly at a young age, your risk of breast cancer is increased. Still, the majority of people diagnosed with breast cancer have no family history of the disease.
-Inherited genes that increase cancer risk. Certain gene mutations that increase the risk of breast cancer can be passed from parents to children. The most well-known gene mutations are referred to as BRCA1 and BRCA2. These genes can greatly increase your risk of breast cancer and other cancers, but they don't make cancer inevitable.
-Radiation exposure. If you received radiation treatments to your chest as a child or young adult, your risk of breast cancer is increased.
-Obesity. Being obese increases your risk of breast cancer.
-Beginning your period at a younger age. Beginning your period before age 12 increases your risk of breast cancer.
-Beginning menopause at an older age. If you began menopause at an older age, you're more likely to develop breast cancer.
-Having your first child at an older age. Women who give birth to their first child after age 30 may have an increased risk of breast cancer.
-Having never been pregnant. Women who have never been pregnant have a greater risk of breast cancer than do women who have had one or more pregnancies.
-Postmenopausal hormone therapy. Women who take hormone therapy medications that combine estrogen and progesterone to treat the signs and symptoms of menopause have an increased risk of breast cancer. The risk of breast cancer decreases when women stop taking these medications.
-Drinking alcohol. Drinking alcohol increases the risk of breast cancer.

Diagnosing Breast Cancer:
-Mammogram
-Ultrasound
-MRI
-Breast Biopsy
-Lab Tests

Types of Breast Cancer:

Angiosarcoma:

Ductal Carcinoma in situ (DCIS):

Inflammatory Breast Cancer:

Invasive Lobular Carcinoma:

Lobular Carcinoma in situ (LCIS):

Male Breast Cancer:

Paget’s Disease of the Breast:

Recurrent Breast Cancer:

Stages of Breast Cancer:
0:
-called carcinoma in situ, which means cancer in the original place.
-3 types of in situ carcinoma: DCIS – Ductal carcinoma in situ, LCIS – Lobular carcinoma in situ, and Paget disease of the nipple
-non-invasive
-typically treated with surgery or radiation
1:
-cancer is contained to the area where the first abnormal cells began to develop.
-1A: tumor is smaller than approximate size of a peanut (2cm or less), and has not spread to lymph nodes
-1B: lymph nodes have cancer evidence, cluster of cells approx. 0.2mm-2.0mm) and either no actual tumor is found in the breast or the tumor is smaller than the approx. size of a peanut.
-highly treatable, typically with surgery and radiation
2 (II):
-breast cancer is growing, but still contained to breast or growth has extended to nearby lymph nodes
-IIA: described as either no tumor is associated with the cancerous cells, and less than four axillary lymph nodes have cancer cells present, or the tumor is less than 2cm and less than four axillary lymph nodes have cancer cells present, or the tumor is 2cm-5cm and has not yet spread to lymph nodes
-IIB: either the tumor is between 2cm-5cm and has spread to less than four axillary lymph nodes or the tumor is larger than 5cm and has not spread to any axillary lymph nodes
3 (III):
-cancer has extended beyond immediate region of tumor, and may have invaded nearby lymph nodes and muscle, but has not spread to different organs.
-3A: Either:No actual tumor is associated with the cancerous cells or the tumor may be any size, AND the nearby lymph nodes (4 or more nodes with as many as 9 affected) contain cancer, Or The tumor is larger than the approximate size of a small lime (more than 5 centimeters), AND small clusters of breast cancer cells are found in the lymph nodes between the approximate size of a pinprick and the width of a grain of rice. (.2mm – 2.0mm.), Or The tumor is larger than the approximate size of a small lime (over 5 centimeters), AND the cancer has spread to 1, 2, or 3 lymph nodes under the arm or near the breastbone.
-3B: The tumor may be any size, AND cancer has invaded the chest wall or breast skin with evidence of swelling, inflammation, or ulcers (such as with cases like inflammatory breast cancer). The breast cancer may also have invaded up to 9 nearby lymph node
-3C: Either: No actual tumor is found in the breast (such as with cases like inflammatory breast cancer) or the tumor may be any size, AND cancer may have invaded the chest wall or breast skin with evidence of swelling, inflammation, or ulcers and cancer has also invaded 10 or more lymph nodes under the arm, OR No actual tumor is found in the breast or the tumor may be any size AND lymph nodes extending to the collarbone area are found to contain cancer, OR No actual tumor is found in the breast or the tumor may be any size AND lymph nodes under the arm and near the breastbone are found to contain cancer.
4 (IV):
-the cancer has spread to other areas of the body, such as the brain, bones, lung and liver.
-also known as metastatic breast cancer.

Treatment of Breast Cancer:

Prevention of Breast Cancer:
Ask your doctor about breast cancer screening.
-Become familiar with your breasts through breast self-exam for breast awareness. If there is a new change, lumps or other unusual signs in your breasts, talk to your doctor promptly.�Breast awareness can't prevent breast cancer, but it may help you to better understand the normal changes that your breasts undergo and identify any unusual signs and symptoms.
-Drink alcohol in moderation, if at all. Limit the amount of alcohol you drink to no more than one drink a day, if you choose to drink.
-Exercise most days of the week. Aim for at least 30 minutes of exercise on most days of the week.
-Limit postmenopausal hormone therapy. Combination hormone therapy may increase the risk of breast cancer. Some women experience bothersome signs and symptoms during menopause and, for these women, the increased risk of breast cancer may be acceptable in order to relieve menopause signs and symptoms. To reduce the risk of breast cancer, use the lowest dose of hormone therapy possible for the shortest amount of time.
-Maintain a healthy weight. If your weight is healthy, work to maintain that weight.
-Choose a healthy diet.

What is Tennis Elbow?
Tennis elbow is also known as lateral epicondylitis, and it occurs when the tendons in the elbow are overloaded.

Pain and weakness from tennis elbow may make it difficult to:
-shake hands or grip an object
-turn a doorknob
-hold a cup of coffee

Causes of Tennis Elbow:
-Tennis elbow is an overuse and muscle strain injury caused by repeated contraction of the forearm muscles used to straighten and raise the hand and the wrist. Repeated motions and stress to the tissue may result in tears in the tendons.
-using plumbing tools
-painting
-driving screws
-cutting cooking ingredients, particularly meat
-repetitive computer mouse use

Risk Factors for Tennis Elbow
-age: tennis elbow can affect anyone, but it is most common in adults age 30-50
-occupation: jobs that involve repetitive motions of the wrist and arm: plumbers, painters, carpenters, butchers, cooks
-certain sports: particularly racket sports with poor technique

Treatment for Tennis Elbow:
Therapy: exercises to gradually stretch and strengthen muscles especially of the forearm
Lifestyle Changes:
-rest: avoid activities that aggravate elbow pain
-ice: apply ice or cold pack
-technique: use proper technique for activities and avoid repetitive wrist motions
Chiropractic Treatment:
-adjustments to the elbow and wrist help to mobilize joints and decrease compression and inflammation
-myofascial release: to forearm muscles to get rid of adhesions and scar tissue in the muscles and tendons
-electrical stimulation: to decrease muscle tightness and inflammation, and improve circulation to promote healing

What is Hearing Loss?
Hearing loss happens when any part of the ear is not working properly.
Parts of the ear: outer ear, middle ear, inner ear, auditory nerve, auditory system

Types of hearing loss:
-conductive hearing loss: something stops the sounds from getting through the outer or middle ear
-sensorineural: occurs when there is a problem in the inner ear or auditory nerve
-mixed: includes conductive and sensorineural
-auditory neuropathy spectrum disorder: sound enters the ear normally, but because of damage to the inner ear or auditory nerve, sound isn’t organized in a way the brain can understand

Hearing loss can be:
-mild, moderate, severe, or profound
-unilateral or bilateral
-pre-lingual or post-lingual
-symmetrical or asymmetrical
-progressive or sudden
-fluctuating or stable
-congenital or acquired/ delayed onset

Treatment for Hearing Loss:
Technology
-hearing aids
-cochlear implants
-bone-anchored hearing aids
-other assistive devices

Medical and Surgical
-certain technology require surgery

Learning Language
-Lip reading
-sign language

Chiropractic care is not a cure for deafness, but in certain cases, it can help provide relief and partially restore hearing in patients if the root cause of their hearing loss is due to a spinal issue.

Acid Reflux is when stomach acid flows back into the esophagus. This irritates the lining of the esophagus. When this occurs repeatedly it is known as gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD).

Symptoms:
-burning sensation in your chest (heartburn), usually after eating, and may be worse at night or while lying down
-backwash (regurgitation) of food or sour liquid
-upper abdominal or chest pain
-trouble swallowing (dysphagia)
-sensation of a lump in your throat
In nighttime acid reflux:
-ongoing cough
-inflammation of vocal cords (laryngitis)
-new or worsening asthma

Causes:
GERD is caused by frequent acid reflux, or reflux of nonacid content from the stomach. When you swallow, a circular band of muscle around the bottom of the esophagus (lower esophageal sphincter) relaxes to allow food and liquid to flow into the stomach then closes again. If the sphincter does not relax as it should, or it weakens, stomach acid can flow back into the esophagus. The constant backwash of acid irritates the lining of the esophagus, often causing it to become inflamed.

Risk Factors:
Conditions that increase risk:
-obesity
-bulging at the top of the stomach up above the diaphragm (hiatal hernia)
-pregnancy
-connective tissue disorders (scleroderma)
-delayed stomach emptying
Factors:
-smoking
-eating large meals, or eating late at night
-eating certain foods (triggers) such as fatty or fried foods
-drinking certain beverages, such as alcohol or coffee
-taking certain medications, such as aspirin

Complications:
Over time, chronic inflammation in your esophagus can cause:
-inflammation of the tissue in the esophagus (esophagitis)
-narrowing of the esophagus (esophageal stricture)
-precancerous changes to the esophagus

Treatment:
Lifestyle changes
-maintain a health weight
-stop smoking
-elevate the head of your bed
-start on your left side when you go to bed
-don’t lie down after a meal
-eat food slowly and chew thoroughly
-avoid foods and drinks that might trigger reflux
-avoid tight fitting clothes
Non-prescription medications:
-antacids to neutralize stomach acid
-medications to reduce acid production
-medication that block acid production and heal the esophagus
Surgeries to tighten the sphincter

Chiropractic Care for GERD:
Chiropractic care focuses on relieving pressure off nerves that may be causing acid reflux incidents. Adjustments alleviate some pressure that is being placed on the stomach.

Condition of the Week

***Infertility***

What is infertility?
Infertility is the inability to get pregnant after one year, or longer, of unprotected sex.

Pregnancy is the result of a process that has many steps. To get pregnant:
-A woman’s body must release an egg from one of her ovaries.�-A man’s sperm must join with the egg along the way (fertilize).
-The fertilized egg must go through a fallopian toward the uterus (womb).
-The embryo must attach to the inside of the uterus (implantation).

Infertility may result from a problem in any of these steps.

Infertility is not just a woman’s problem. Men can also contribute to infertility.

Infertility in Men:
Causes:

Disruption of testicular or ejaculatory function
-Varicocele, a condition in which the veins within a man’s testicle are enlarged. Although there are often no symptoms, varicoceles may affect the number or shape of the sperm.
-Trauma to the testes may affect sperm production and result in lower number of sperm.
-Heavy alcohol use, smoking, anabolic steroid use, and illicit drug use.
-Cancer treatment involving certain types of chemotherapy, radiation, or surgery to remove one or both testicles.
-Medical conditions such as diabetes, cystic fibrosis, certain types of autoimmune disorders, and certain types of infections may cause testicular failure.

Hormonal disorders
-Improper function of the hypothalamus or pituitary glands.
-benign and malignant (cancerous) pituitary tumors
-congenital adrenal hyperplasia
-exposure to too much estrogen
-exposure to too much testosterone
-Cushing’s syndrome
-chronic use of medications called glucocorticoids.

Genetic disorders
-Klinefelter’s syndrome
-Y-chromosome micro-deletion
-myotonic dystrophy,

Infertility in Women:
Causes:

Disruption of ovarian function
-Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS)- none or irregular ovulation
-Diminished ovarian reserve (DOR)- fewer eggs remaining than expected at a given age
-Functional hypothalamic amenorrhea (FHA)- caused by excessive exercise, weight loss, stress, or often a combination of these factors. It is sometimes associated with eating disorders such as anorexia.
-Improper function of the hypothalamus or pituitary glands
-Premature ovarian insufficiency (POI)- premature menopause
-Menopause- natural decline of ovarian function

Fallopian tube obstruction
-blocked fallopian tubes from pelvic infection, ruptured appendix, endometriosis

A woman’s fertility decreases with:
-age
-smoking
-excessive alcohol use
-excessive body weight
-extreme weight loss or weight gain
-excessive stress resulting in amenorrhea (absent period)

Chiropractic care and Infertility:
In many cases, fertility issues may be associated with improper nervous system function, poor nutrition, high stress, and poor lifestyle habits. Chiropractors are nervous system specialists and reducing interference in the nervous system is their primary goal.
Keeping the spine properly aligned, clearing the nervous system of excessive interference, and counseling patients on nutrition, exercise, and changes to lifestyle make the chiropractor one of your best options to help your body function in harmony with the way it was designed.

***Rotator Cuff Injuries***

What is the Rotator Cuff?
It is a group of muscles and tendons that surround the shoulder joint.

Pain with Rotator Cuff injuries may:
-be a dull ache in the shoulder
-disturb sleep
-make it difficult to comb your hair or reach behind your back
-be accompanied by arm weakness
*Some Rotator Cuff Injuries do not cause any pain*

Causes of Rotator Cuff Injuries:
-progressive wear and tear of the tendon tissue over time
-repetitive overhead activity
-prolonged heavy lifting
-single incident such as a fall or accident

Risk Factors of Rotator Cuff Injuries:
-age: increased age leads to increased risk- rotator cuff injuries are most common above age 60
-occupation: jobs requiring repetitive, overhead motion- carpentry and house painting
-sports: baseball, tennis, weight-lifting
-family history: there may be a genetic component as rotator cuff injuries appear to occur more commonly in certain families

Complications of Rotator Cuff Injuries:
Without treatment, injuries may lead to permanent loss of motion or weakness in the shoulder joint.

Treatment for Rotator Cuff Injuries:
-Physical Therapy: exercises can help restore flexibility and strength to the shoulder
-Injections: Steroids can provide temporary relief, and can also weaken the tendon and reduce success of future surgery
-Surgery: there a various surgeries available

Home Remedies:
-Stop doing what caused the pain
-try avoiding painful movements
-limit heavy lifting or overhead activity until shoulder pain subsides
-ice the shoulder

How can Chiropractic Care help with a Rotator Cuff Injury?
Spinal adjustments restore balance to improperly aligned muscles and relieve pinched nerves which can cause pain. Both help restore ROM in the shoulder.

*** Hay Fever/ Allergies ***
Hay fever, also known as allergic rhinitis, causes cold-like symptoms:
-runny nose
-itchy eyes
-congestion
-sneezing and coughing
-sinus pressure
-mucus (postnasal drip)
-fatigue
Unlike the common cold, hay fever is not caused by a virus. Instead it is caused by an allergic response to allergens.
Common allergens:
-pollen from trees, grass, and ragweed
-dust mites
-pet dander
-spores from fungi and molds

What causes hay fever?
The body’s immune system identifies a harmless substance, known as an allergen, as being harmful. The immune system produces immunoglobulin E antibodies for protection. The antibodies signal the immune system to release chemicals like histamine into the bloodstream, which cases a reaction: symptoms of hay fever.

Risk Factors:
-having other allergies or asthma
-having atopic dermatitis (eczema) which makes the skin irritated and itchy
-having a blood relative-parent or sibling- with allergies or asthma
-living or working in an environment that constantly exposes you to allergens such as animal dander or dust mites
-being exposed to smoke and strong odors that irritate the lining of the nose
-having a mother who smoked during the first year of your life

Complications associated with Hay Fever:
-reduced quality of life
-poor sleep
-worsening asthma
-sinusitis
-ear infection

Can Chiropractic Help with Allergies?
The primary objective is to boost the body’s ability to function as nature intended. When the body is not working properly, all other systems may follow suit, creating health challenges that may be linked. Spinal adjustments help return the body to a more balanced condition. Chiropractic care is not a cure, but it may help to alleviate symptoms!

Hamstring injuries are the result of a tear or pulled muscle of the hamstring.

What is the Hamstring?
The hamstring is a group of three muscles at the back of the thigh: biceps femurs, semimembranosus, and semitendinosus. These muscles are used in flexion (bending) and extending (stretching) the leg to lunge, run, climb, sprint, and jump.

The three grades of hamstring injuries and their symptoms:
Grade 1: mild muscle pull- sudden radiating pain on the back of the thigh. Muscle strength won’t be affected, but it is more difficult to move the leg.
Grade 2: partial muscle tear- more painful than grade 1, some swelling, bruising, and loss of strength in the leg
Grade 3: complete muscle tear- worse pain, tenderness swelling, and bruising. You may have felt a popping sensation when the injury happened.

Additional Symptoms
-bump or knot in the thigh area
-spasms
-muscle stiffness

What are the causes of Hamstring Injuries?
*Athletes who run, climb, and lunge are at higher risk of hamstring injuries*
-fatigue from training too hard
-direct blow to the thigh
-inadequate warming up
-inadequate pre-conditioning
-previous hamstring injury

The injury may be worse if you don’t follow R.I.C.E.: rest, ice, compression, elevation

Home Remedies for Hamstring Injuries:
-R.I.C.E.
-stop activity or do fewer activities until the soreness is gone
-ice for 24-48 hours after the injury: 15 min on, 15 min off
-compression wrap or elastic thigh sleeve-not to be worn while icing or showering
-gentle ROM exercises to maintain flexibility

Physical Therapy can provide you with strength and flexibility exercises.

Surgery may be necessary if the hamstring is pulled away from the bone.

Chiropractic adjustments can help a patient recover from a hamstring injury faster. Chiropractic care works the hamstrings to relax the muscles. This will allow more blood flow and nutrients toward the injury which promotes healing.

How to Prevent a Hamstring Injury:
-warm up your body at least ten minutes prior to exercise
-jog instead of run
-easy calisthenics
-stretch and flex exercises three to five minutes prior to and post sporting event
-maintain a good strength and conditioning program
-eat a well balanced diet
