February is American Heart Month

Managing Hypertension Naturally with Acupuncture and Chiropractic Care

Moline, IL, February 5, 2015  -  According to the American Heart Association 1 out 3 or 77.9 million adults have high blood pressure, half of whom don't have it under control.  Heart disease is also the leading cause of death for both men and women.  In the Quad Cities, the prevalence of heart disease is 9.2% compared to the national average of 6.1%.

This month Healing Lotus Acupuncture & Moline Chiropractic Clinic are proudly participating in American Heart Month in order to increase awareness about the risks of heart disease, and what can be done to prevent it.  We will be giving free blood pressure readings all month, so when you have a few minutes, stop on by.

On February 10th at 6pm - 7pm inside Moline Chiropractic Clinic, Dr. Wayne Davis of Moline Chiropractic Clinic and Scott Stewart, MSAc., Dipl.Ac., LAc. of Healing Lotus Acupuncture will be giving a presentation on many of the often overlooked causes of high blood pressure, and the effectiveness of Eastern medicine and chiropractic care, along with lifestyle modifications, which can naturally lower blood pressure.  There will also be a brief synopsis on how the mechanism of acupuncture and chiropractic care can modulate the body's innate regulatory system, and thereby lower blood pressure.
