14 Tips To Protect Against Corona Virus (COVID-19)

1) Wash your hands regularly with clean water and any soap.

*Soap creates lather that penetrates the lipid membrane of the virus thereby weakening the virulence of the virus (its ability to infect host).

*Do not use strong detergents to wash your hands to avoid causing you contact allergies.

2)Wear face mask regularly.

*Face mask prevents the spread of the virus droplets from the infected person when coughs, talks or sneezes.

*But because an asymptomatic carrier can spread it and because nobody knows who is the carrier yet unless tested, it is advisable that you act as if you're infected by wearing face mask regularly. This will help to curb the viral spread.

3) Cover your mouth with tissue paper when coughing or sneezing and immediately dispose the tissue afterwards.

*But if no tissue available, cough or sneeze into the inner part of your elbow or cough into your clothes, and wash afterwards.

4) Avoid handshake and hugging for now.

5) Wash your hands with clean water and soap after touching any surfaces or pets.

*Although no scientific evidence that pets can transmit the virus yet, it is advisable to wash your hands after handling pets.

*Use alcohol-based sanitizers if no water and soap available.

*Always use alcohol to clean your handy gadgets like phones, tablets, laptops, bags, eyeglasses, etc regularly.

6) Avoid crowded areas.

*Always maintain social distancing of at least 1 meter from anybody around you.

7) Always avoid touching your face (nose, eyes and mouth) with your hands.

*To curtail the unconscious temptation of touching your face with your hands, try using your less-dominant hand to touch surfaces like door knobs,  table, phones, laptops, etc.

*If you're right-handed, try using your left hands to touch surfaces for now and vice versa.

*This is because there is more tendency that you use your dominant hands to touch your face unconsciously.

😎 Avoid eating uncooked or improperly cooked animal products like meats, eggs, etc.

*This is because these animal products could be handled by infected hands.

9) Boost your immune system.

*Eat balanced diets and natural foods.

*Drink enough water daily.

*Have enough sleep daily.

*Engage in exercises; at least 150 minutes per week of moderate-intensity aerobic activity or 75
minutes per week of vigorous aerobic activity.

*Please, kindly avoid unhealthy lifestyles like smoking, drunkenness and unhealthy feeding habits to avoid weakening your immune system.

*Note: Strong immune system can fight off Corona Virus.

10) Do not fear.

* Fear weakens your immune system and can cause cardiovascular damage, etc

11) If you have any comorbidities (any underlying and maintenance diseases like Hypertension, Diabetes Mellitus, Asthma, etc), please kindly take very good care of your health and avoid crowds as much as possible.

*Stay indoors as much as possible.

*Comply to your maintenance drugs.

12) If you are already aged or have aged parents and relatives, please kindly shield yourself or them from any possible exposures.

*Aged people and very young children are at higher risk of being infected.

13) If you present with fever, dysphagia and odynophagia  (sore throat), cough, and dyspnea (Difficulty of breathing), etc please kindly consult your doctor immediately.

14) Most importantly, pray to God to protect you and your families because He is the GREATEST PHYSICIAN.

Thank you!

Massage Can Help Relieve Pain Caused By Spinal Cord Injuries

The modern times give people instant everything but it also lead people to develop lifelong conditions such as spinal cord injuries.

Realizing this, most people are now rediscovering things that would somehow relieve their pain caused by this trauma on their spinal column.

These days, one of the trends for people for relief for those with spinal cord injuries is massage.

 Despite the emergence of different massage parlors, saunas and spas, enjoying a wonderful massage don’t have to expensive.

In fact, you can even ask your husband or your wife to learn how to practice massage so you can ask him or her to do it for you when the pain caused by spinal cord injuries strikes you.

Steps to a powerful and effective massage

During massage sessions, the first thing that needs to be done is to unplug the phone first. This would ensure that you have the luxury of time to spend with each other.

Since a massage is not the kind of experience you would want to do hastily, it is best if you check the room you would use.

Some of the possible factors that would affect—directly or indirectly—the outcome of a relaxing massage experience is the lighting and the overall atmosphere of the room.

Make sure to turn off the light but if you or your partner is the type that enjoys mystery during a massage session, you can light scented candles or let natural sunlight permeate through your opened window to provide soft and indirect lighting.

And though you might want to play a soft sensual music throughout the massage, it is better if you keep the room quiet so you would hear and feel what delights your partner.

It is also best if you would rearrange the room to give it a hands-on feeling and make sure it’s cozy and warm so both of you would be comfortable.

Although it is ideal to give a massage on a firm and flat surface like a massage table, a firm mattress would do. It is also more adventurous if you will try to pile up the pillows on the solid floor to achieve that ultimate massage experience.    

Some sanitary factors might also affect the massage experience. To avoid having delays to a massage, check if your hands are clean by making sure that your fingernails are properly trimmed.

It is also suitable to keep your hands dry and warm by rubbing them together thoroughly. Although it not ‘a must’ to be clean before a massage, your partner definitely be more comfortable and relaxed if the essential parts of the body, like the hands and toes are clean.

Ask the massage receiver if he or she would want to take a bath first before the session starts.

After considering all the factors that would affect the entire session, the time comes for the actual massage.

You must keep in mind that constant contact with your partner is a very important thing throughout because it helps the massage flow smoothly. It is equally important to know the pressure suitable for your partner by intently listening to their responses while asking him or her once in a while.

To make that the pressure is just right for your partner that has spinal cord injuries, keep your movements symmetric, even, and rhythmic by following smooth patterns.

Have a wonderful day.

How Women Can Protect Themselves From Spinal Cord Injuries

Since women have more fragile frame than men, they are more prone to spinal cord injuries (SPC) especially those that are caused by heavy falling.

Experts say that there's an increasing number of women who suffer from SPC mainly because their bodies are not "strong enough" to endure pressure when they meet accidents that involve their backs or the spinal column area.

Spinal cord injuries refer to the inability of the nerves in the spine to feel. Some say that this is somehow similar to back injuries.

The only difference is that unlike in back injuries where they might be broken bones and pitched nerves, in spinal cord injuries, everything remains intact, only that, the function of mobility is greatly affected.

Studies show that in order to protect oneself from the impacts of hard falling, one should have a stronger frame. For women, the best way to achieve this is through strength training.

A good alternative

Strength training has become a popular choice of exercise in keeping the body fit and healthy because it is the fastest way in improving muscle as well as endurance and strength.

Referred to as an exercise that requires a person's muscles in exerting force against different forms of resistance like free weights, strength training is one sure way of yielding healthy body results especially in the spinal column area.

Experts say that doing strength training exercises at least 3 times weekly for 20 minutes or so is the most ideal. This may result to firm muscles especially if it is targeted for the back area.

Aside from giving you firm muscles for a great looking physique, strength training can also increase the endurance and strength of the developed muscles that can allow women perform tasks daily with lesser exertion and effort.

Aside from making the spinal area get used to endure more pressure, strength training can also enable a person to do tasks for a longer span of time without having to endure sore muscles and painful joints after.

This is because the muscles are already used to such tolerable force and this makes it possible for somebody to increase work capacity. Aside from improving the working capacity of the muscles, strength training can also help improving the body's coordination, balance, and blood circulation as well as the strength of the bones and the ligaments especially in the back area.

Some women may be apprehensive about strength training because they think it not safe and will only make them look masculine. If done properly, no injuries can take place because weight lifting is the most common activity in strength training.

When it comes to looking muscular, experts say that getting as bulky as men is not possible with strength training for women because the latter cannot produce as much testosterone needed for big muscles.

Experts say that to be able to develop muscle and achieve muscular strength through strength training, women should always make it a practice to stretch before she starts and after she has performed some weight exercises. Stretching is important especially for beginners because it can reduce soreness after the exercises.

The most common stretching exercises for to avoid spinal cord injuries include warm-ups that include flexibility and stretching exercises performed at least 8 minutes before any strength training exercise to keep the muscles supple, increase the joints' range of motion, heart rate and body temperature, and blood flow to muscles, enhance flexibility, and improve coordination.

How To Help People With Spinal Cord Injuries

These days, more and more people are becoming prone to spinal cord injuries or "SCI."

Statistics show that over the past years, there are higher incidences of accidents related to cars such as reckless driving, irresponsibility when it comes to handling items that are deadly such as guns, as well as recklessness when it comes to mobility that causes more instances of falling heavily on the ground.

Experts also believe that since the environment has become more polluted, people are also prone to certain kinds of diseases or illnesses such as polio or ataxia that contribute to the development of spinal cord injuries.

For people who know somebody who is experiencing the pains of spinal cord injuries, one of the best ways for them to help is to become an expert in the recovery by becoming a chiropractor.

Getting started to becoming a chiropractor

The field of chiropractic has become more popular these days because more and more people want to become chiropractors.

 Unlike before when not so many would get the job, there is a growing number of people who are getting into this line of work because it can be a lucrative profession that would ensure good income.

Aside from ensuring good flow of income, other people also get into the field of chiropractic because the nature of the job is challenging yet fulfilling since it involves helping people get better.

Today, many people have proven that problems involving the person's vertebrae or spine can have great effect on the overall functioning of the whole body.

To help them get rid of these as well as other musculo-skeletal system problems, they go to chiropractors who can relieve skeletal imbalances by conducting treatment and prevention options such as spinal manipulation, and series of massages as well therapies needed.

What you need

If you are one of those who would want to get involved in the field of chiropractic, now is the time to conduct research on how to become a successful chiropractor. Experts say that conducting research is the best way for starters into the world of chiropractic.

This is because it will give you an understanding about the field and it will also lead you to steps that you need to do to become one.

You will be needing chiropractic college catalogs and applications, chiropractic journals, and a computer with internet connection to be able to access online career search sites that will lead you the path that you would want to be in.

Experts say that all aspiring chiropractors must be able to obtain chiropractic education because this will ensure their qualification for the nature of the job.

The school will not only provide you training but will also give you the credentials needed to become a licensed chiropractor. People who are eyeing a career on chiropractic such as becoming a chiropractor must also be able to:

1. Finish an undergraduate college degree that have excellent passing rates on science courses like biology, physics and chemistry.

2. Finish a Doctorate on Chiropractic or D.C. degree wherein one needs to additional four more years of schooling including practicum or internship in a reputable hospital.

3. Admitted on any of chiropractic colleges that have been given accreditation by the "CCE" or the "Council on Chiropractic Education" since these will qualify you to take the National Board examinations for an earlier schedule needed to become a fully-qualified chiropractor that can help people with spinal cord injuries faster.

A Good Treatment Option For Spinal Cord Injuries

With all the distractions that is brought by modern times, more and more people are becoming prone to lifetime conditions such as spinal cord injuries or SCI.

Experts say that the spinal cord injuries are damages or trauma in the person's spine area, which may lead to its inability to function well when it comes to mobility or feeling.

Studies show that the most common causes of spinal cord injuries may include accidents such as gunshot, clashing of vehicles as well as falling heavily on the ground.

Other possible causes may also include certain diseases or illnesses such as polio or ataxia caused by unhealthy living.

Many people mistake spinal cord injuries to back injuries. Although both of these may affect the spinal area, the difference lies on the severity of the conditions. If the person have back injuries, it could be that his or her bones are broken, the discs on the back area are dislocated or the nerves have been joint.

For those who have spinal cord injuries, these may not the present because many people who have it continues to have their spinal cord intact, the only difference is that the nerves may not be able to feel.

Although medical treatment options are the ideal options for these people, it would be best to try a milder form through the services given by a chiropractor.

If you are one of those who know people with SCI, the best help that you can give them is by becoming a chiropractor yourself. 

If you want to be a chiropractor, a good education is a must. Where else could an aspiring chiropractor get this but in a chiropractic school?

Since the chiropractic field focuses on a person's overall health, people in this line of work should not only be properly trained but also have the license to conduct the nature of the field such as proper diagnosis and practicing treatment options. 

Being a health care profession that is focused on the sensitive part of the person's body—which is the spine and the musculoskeletal system in general—people who are in the chiropractic field should be properly trained. This training as well as comprehensive knowledge on the field of chiropractic can only be acquired in a chiropractic school.

Chiropractic education ensures that the future practitioners or the chiropractors are qualified enough to do the work. 

All over the world, the admission requirements, the entry criteria, the overall education structure, the teaching methodologies as well as the nature of programs and training offered vary.

However, there is a standard set of qualifications that is set by the World Health Organization (WHO) to ensure that future chiropractors are qualified for the nature of the work. According to WHO, chiropractors must be able to obtain a first professional, second entry, degree in Chiropractic medicine and should also be able to finish a three-year university undergraduate education to be able to apply for the chiropractic degree; finish a four-year course of pre-requisite training in basic sciences; complete a 4-year full-time program in a reputable college or university; and obtain a license by passing Chiropractic Board Exams by completing a 12-month or a one-year clinical internship to a reputable health care establishment or a hospital.

To ensure that you get all the qualifications needed to become a qualified chiropractor who can help people with spinal cord injuries, it is a must to choose a chiropractic school that meets the above-mentioned standards.
