  • Liver-heart-lymphatic axis. The missing piece to helping your nagging discomfort and muscle tightness.

    What you may not be aware of is the connection of every organ to yourself. Today we will highlight the liver-heart-lymphatic system’s connection. As Long Beach’s only Sports Medicine and Orthopedic Physical Therapy that emphasizes healing from within, we preach that there are two ways to getting any little tension or discomfort to go away FOR GOOD.

    1. Do more “good”.
    2. Do less “bad” or get rid of the “bad”.

    The lymphatic system works closely with your circulation system.

    Why should you care?

    You can do tons of “good” stuff like stretching and strengthening, but if you are getting little rewards or not lasting gains, you must look at the lymphatic system.

  • 3 Easy Tips On How to Love Your Liver

    virtual-office-asstWhat would you give for an effective and reliable “right hand” assistant?  Behind every great leader or CEO, there is an assistant that keeps the day organized and “flowing”.  In “Welcome to Our “Right Hand”, the Liver”, I used this analogy to explain our liver Qi in eastern medicine.  Our liver is responsible for the smooth flow of qi.  When you have liver dysfunction, it usually starts with a disruption of qi.  Early signs and symptoms include frustration, anger, or depression.  When the assistant is overworked, and even worst, under appreciated, the assistant becomes angry and resentful.  There is a saying “it is hard to find good help”.  A good leader can make an average assistant better if the leader understands how to capitalize on the assistant’s strengths.  The bond can be stronger if the leader decides to invest in the relationship.  To go back to my eastern medicine explanation of the liver, this is the right time to take care of your liver so you can avoid more severe problems in the future.

  • Welcome to Our “Right Hand”, The Liver!

    multitaskenWhen a company or a leader does well, there is usually an assistant that does all the grunt work.  Overworked and underpaid like Andrea “Andy” Sachs from the movie “Devil Wears Prada.”  This does not always have to be the case and should not.  The “right hand” can perform much better when one feels their work is appreciated and important.   This analogy reminds me of our liver. Conveniently, our liver is located in our right flank region.

    Our “right hand” assistant, the liver, is the second largest vital organ in your body.  The liver performs many essential functions related to digestion, metabolism, immunity, and the storage of nutrients within the body. The tissues of the body would quickly deteriote from lack of energy and nutrients if the liver is not functioning well.  One good thing about liver is it can regenerate quickly so being reVITALized back to its normal state is a possibility.

    A good “right hand” assistant has the role of screening the head cases, directing flow of tasks, bringing morning coffee and donuts, overall, making the leader look good.  Lets breakdown the actual job duties of our liver.   (more…)
