Keeping the Tank Above Half Full

This past week I happened to treat a few truck drivers at the office & one of them was telling me how the new trucks are designed with more 'pint-sized' gasoline tanks.

They do this to keep the weight down on the truck for certain purposes & regulations.

I asked him how many miles he can go in his truck on a full tank of gas.

He said, "I don't know. I never let the tank get less than half full. As soon as my fuel gauge gets to the halfway mark, I pull over and fill up to a full tank."

When I asked him why, he said something to the extent of, "One time I was on a long stretch of highway and the tank was getting low with the nearest gas station being quite a distance away. Fortunately, I made it but I don't want that to ever happen again."

He went on further to explain how he can be on a midwestern road in the middle of winter and running out of gas can be fatal.

This same patient not only practices what he preaches on the job, but also when it comes to his health.

He came to see me a little under 6 months ago with a knee pain so bad that it was a potential threat to him losing his job if it did not get fixed.

In about 8 weeks, his knee pain went away and now he comes in for easy upkeep and wellness.

On a recent wellness visit, he mentioned he had a deviated septum surgery and was having some pain in his sinuses from the surgery.

He did a session of photo biomodulation with our TheraLight 360 bed and the pain went away instantly.

His body has learned to adapt fast to the different types of care he has been receiving the past 6 months.

Over the past 30 years of practice, the beautiful phenomenon I've seen happen to patients who regularly receive chiropractic care and address the physical, chemical, and mental needs of their body is that they respond faster in overcoming illness and other health issues that pop up from time to time.

Here is the takeaway: The more you invest in your health, the better chance you have to respond favorably to health challenges that my occur in the future.

Enjoy the rest of your weekend!
