With a client in my office, we discuss
posture, exercises, and home self-care. For example, for a client with
lumbar disc dysfunction, I often recommend backward bending exercises,
hamstring stretches, and hip flexor stretch. I will phase in the exercises
according to the client’s level of pain and stage of recovery
(acute, rehabilitation, or maintenance). We may discuss whether to use
ice or heat or both. If appropriate, an acute homeopathic remedy may
be recommended for an acute problem. Many nutritional products are appropriate
to promote healing and reduce inflammation. I educate you how to get
well and stay well!
During my eleven years in practice, I have done public speaking on
various topics. I am an enthusiastic advocate of alternative healing
methods and enjoy making them available to people through my health
care talks. Below is a sampling of groups with whom I have spoken:
- University of Minnesota Libraries: staff symposium
- North Country Food Cooperative: staff in-service
- Minnesota Association of Rehabilitation Providers
- Regions Hospital Fibromyalgia Support Group
- United Steelworkers of America, “Women of Steel” group
- Neighborhood Involvement Program: staff in-service
