Over time, these toxins may affect our health and digestion. In the long term, the ability to absorb the foods and nutrients we consume daily can become diminished. When this happens, individuals no longer receive the full benefit of their daily diet. Every day, a person’s diet should provide essential nutrients to keep that individual performing at peak effectiveness. Proper absorption of nutrients such as carbohydrates, proteins, fats, vitamins, and minerals is essential to maintaining a healthy body. When we remove toxic substances from the body and raise the pH, the body systems are better able to come back into balance, and function as nature intended. In addition to lipo laser treatments, we recommend patients get adjusted regularly to rid the body of any chronic pain. Studies have shown that conditions such as low back pain, neck pain, tension or migraine headaches, fibromyalgia, and joint pain consistently lead to poor metabolism and obesity. Pain often causes decreased physical activity, leading to weight gain. These conditions often result in decreased health-related quality of life and increased disability. In this regard, inactivity and a sedentary lifestyle can lead to obesity, which contributes to transforming acute pain into chronic pain. Countless studies show significant links between exercise and weight loss, exercise and decreased pain, and exercise and improvement of depression and anxiety symptoms. What holds people back from tackling their weight and chronic pain problems? Even when their doctor tells them to “just do it,” patients in chronic pain will tell you, “that’s easier said than done.” The heavier and more painful a person gets, the more difficult it is to get motivated to move. It’s counterproductive to move body parts that ache, even when movement is key to healing. Getting adjusted regularly will decrease pain symptoms, allowing you to lead a healthier lifestyle and maintain the weight loss attained from the Lipo-Laser treatments.
