We are in Week 3 of a 4-part series on Unintentional Deaths from Accidents, which are the third-leading cause of death in America. This week, we're joined by our Associate Chiropractor Dr. Dodge and Alana, who heads up our Rehab Department, to talk about how the Holistic Integration Balance Program helps to prevent Falls. In this episode, you'll learn:
—How one-third of all people over the age of 65 will suffer from a serious fall. And most people who fracture a hip will die within two years.
—Why the FEAR of falling actually increases your likelihood of suffering from a fall.
—How those over the age of 70 will lose 15% of their muscle mass every 10 years, on average.
—The shocking average cost of a hospital stay due to a fall. And why a prevention program is far cheaper!
—The medications that increase your risk of falls, including those for cholesterol, cardiovascular, hypertension, anti-psychotic, anti-depressants, sleep aids, and muscle relaxants.
—Why Holistic Integration works on both cognitive and balance exercises at the same time.
—What the patient performance assessment looks like at Holistic Integration.
—Why foot orthotics are important for your balance and stability. And how foot orthotics should be considered an essential part of being healthy just like brushing your teeth or using deodorant!
—The story of a primary care physician from another state who called the Holistic Integration Structural Team to ask what they had done to his patient after seeing her amazing results.
—How Mary came to Holistic Integration for help with shortness of breath and now says her symptoms "are basically gone" after going through the Holistic Integration Balance program.
