Did you know we have a University lecturer at our centre???? Dr Paul Bergamo has taken on a University lecturer position at RMIT teaching nutrition principles, clinical nutrition, public health and health communication via public speaking to chiropractic students. This will not disturb the current clinic timetable as it all happens on Wednesdays. This will squash the myth that Wednesday is Paul’s golf day! |

Do you suffer from?
Dr Bergamo can help with his unique, specialised service utilising the PEN PLANTM. All our nutrition clients fill out a five day food enquiry. We have had outstanding results with patients, often reducing their medication (in collaboration with their doctor). Other outcomes include large improvements in the health index of a person, naturally, without drugs. Our approach is complete – looking at foods, exercise, emotional eating, stress, family issues and time management, progress reports are done regularly. Patients are seen weekly for a month, then fortnightly and then once in three weeks to monthly. At the one month landmark, a full review is conducted. Call our centre on 9887 4144 to speak to Paul.

Did you know that chiropractic may help with children’s middle ear infections? A key cause of poor fluid drainage from the middle ear is dysfunction (subluxation) of the upper cervical spine. Nerves from the upper cervical spine control the function of a muscle called ‘tensor veli palatini’ which has an important impact on the eustachian tube and its ability to drain fluid from the middle ear. Upper cervical spine dysfunction (subluxation) affects the nerves leaving the upper cervical spine resulting in fluid accumulation in the middle ear. The fluid which builds up in the middle ear is then ripe for infection to develop. We use a wholistic approach. It is important to look at allergies and to provide nutritional support to improve immune function and regulate inflammation. Also use of acidophilus and bifidobacterium cultures aids normalization of the intestinal tract environment which has been damaged as a result of antibiotic use. |
