St. Petersburg Chiropractor Provides Nutritional Counseling for Optimal Wellness
Posted on 2012-02-22 13:55:10
While most people consider the term diet something that relates only to calories and weight loss, our St. Petersburg chiropractor offers nutritional counseling to help our patients expand their view of what diet really means. Not only does it concern foods that promote a healthy weight, a truly great diet supports excellent health!Five Healthy Nutritional Tips That Support Weight Loss, Detox and Great Health
- The first tip involves a change in mindset. Rather than thinking about solely counting calories, instead consider the nutritional value of the food you are eating. There are many low-calorie foods that promote weight loss, but do they also provide your body with the essential nutrients it craves?
- Eating whole foods rather than highly processed foods gives you a real nutritional boost. There is an incredible difference between eating a fresh orange and drinking an orange flavored drink. One provides an abundance of nutrients, whereas the other is primarily artificially colored sugar water. It’s obvious which choice benefits your body more.
- After years of eating fast foods and highly processed foods, your body is full of undesirable wastes and toxins and needs a good detox. Our nutritional counseling guides you through the gentle detox process that helps your body rid itself of the accumulated toxins. Once you have cleansed your system, we show you how to easily maintain a healthy, optimally functioning digestive system.
- What you drink is as important as what you eat. Recent research is confirming the harmful effects of excessive consumption of sugary drinks. Water has always proven beneficial to health by hydrating the body and quenching thirst.
Whether you are suffering from a painful injury or illness, our St. Petersburg chiropractor uses a comprehensive approach of getting to the root of your health problem. In addition to nutritional counseling, we use gentle, non-invasive techniques of physical therapy, acupressure and massage therapy to promote healing and wellness.

Massage Therapy from Seminole Chiropractor
Posted on 2011-12-20 13:53:23
Seminole Chiropractic Wellness Center, chiropractor Dr. Randal Butch helps St. Petersburg patients feel their best by combining chiropractic treatment with massage therapy and physical therapy. Seminole massage therapy benefits patients by improving blood circulation around the muscles and by helping the muscles relax. Relaxed muscles help injuries heal more quickly and improve the benefits of other treatments.Massage and Chiropractic Care
Swedish massage is one type of therapy that uses long, deep strokes to ease tension in the muscles. Patients suffering from a sports related injury may benefit from a form of massage therapy designed to specifically treat injuries suffered by athletes. Other massage types include deep tissue massage and trigger point massage, which help patients who suffer from muscle spasms or injury.
Dr. Butch commonly uses the Palmer Technique to treat patients at our clinic. The Palmer Technique allows Dr. Butch to accurately adjust a patient's spine to correct subluxations or misalignments. A misaligned spine may be a predominant cause of nerve pain and stiffness.
At our clinic, Dr. Butch combines the Palmer method of chiropractic care with massage and physical therapies. Using massage for pain relief and to speed healing, along with chiropractic adjustments, helps a patient recover and feel his or her best without the need for pain medications or invasive surgery. Both chiropractic care and massage encourage the body to heal itself.
Massage is not only for patients who have suffered an injury. Those who want to improve their overall wellness, such as by seeking nutritional counseling and lifestyle advice from our chiropractor, can also benefit from the treatment.

A Little Pressure Can Alleviate a Lot of Pain: Acupressure from St. Petersburg Chiropractor
Posted on 2011-11-23 13:52:40
Just as there are various causes and types of pain, Seminole Chiropractic Wellness Center offers various treatments to help alleviate pain and achieve optimum health. One of the techniques our St. Petersburg chiropractor offers is acupressure, a healing system similar to acupuncture for its ability to open blocked energy, enhance circulation of body fluids and alleviate pain. Instead of needles, however, physical pressure is administered by hand or special instrument to key points along the body, points on the meridian system that correspond to areas where pain and other symptoms are present.Pressure Often Used in Conjunction with Massage Therapy, Chiropractic Techniques
Administering pressure to key points for healing and pain relief is often used in conjunction with other techniques as part of an overall pain management or wellness program. Massage therapy works to alleviate stress, enhance circulation and bring relief to the affected area and is an extremely effective part of a pain relief program using pressure.
Often the treatment needs to begin deeper than the surface, depending on the cause of the pain. If the pain stems from a misalignment, subluxation or other issue with the spine, chiropractic techniques can be essential for healing. A graduate of the Palmer College of Chiropractic, our chiropractor Dr. Randal Butch frequently uses the Palmer technique to restore the spine to its natural alignment, regain full function, and correct the cause of the pain.
Dr. Butch has more than 25 years experience helping the St. Petersburg community, with individualized treatment plans that are as unique as each individual problem. Even if pain is not the issue, our techniques and services can help you achieve or maintain optimum health with methods that are all-natural, non-invasive and consistently successful.

Dr. Butch also incorporates the Palmer technique into all chiropractic adjustments he performs. What makes this technique different from others is that it focuses on the atlas vertebrae in the spine. Through this method, it is believed that making small adjustments of rotation on this particular spinal element can make a huge difference in pain relief. Many of our patients have found this to be true and have found great success with the Palmer method.
Our clinic also offers cold laser therapy through a Class 4 Laser. For those unfamiliar with what this process entails, a no-heat laser beam is administered to the patient's pain afflicted area by a chiropractic professional. This safe and effective treatment has been proven by the FDA in studies to help speed up the healing time of muscles and tissue by up to 66%.
