On the bucket list of 2012 resolutions, there were probably things like “eat better”, “get in shape”, “do more yoga”, etc., am I right? Yet all these things have to do with one main goal – being a healthier person. Sure, you could cut down on carbs and commit to running a mile every other day, but what if that’s not the right path for your body? We’re all different and that means there are specific paths to each of our individual goals.

Some of our on-site testing, such as body composition and metabolic rate are used to help get you on your ideal caloric intake, helping you achieve your ideal weight. While lab testing by Spectracell, Genova, ALCAT, and Quest to name a few, are also available to help identify any nutritional or hormonal deficiencies that may be adversely impacting your weight loss plan.

Dr. Grover has recently added pulsed electromagnetic therapy to help patients with pain, neural inflammation, and many other issues. Check it out at here. This therapy is mainstream in Europe, and recently endorsed by Dr. Oz.

Wishing everyone a romantic and fun Valentines Day!

Have you ever wondered just how active you really are during the day? Or maybe you’re curious about how much quality sleep you’re actually getting at night. Whether it’s out of curiosity or you’re trying to stick to a new years resolution, the technology to track it all has arrived.

fitbit is a small wireless device about the size of a portable usb that you wear in order to track your activity during the day. Sure, a pedometer tracks how many steps you take and how far you go but fitbit takes it a few steps further. It lets you track your diet, how often you were sedentary, lightly active or very active, calories burned and calories consumed. The best part is that it wirelessly syncs to your computer so you can get your results in an easy to view format!

Even better is that fitbit can monitor your sleep! It doesn’t just tell you how long you slept, it tracks how long it took you to get to sleep, how many times you woke, and the overall quality of your sleep. Other features include free online tracking tools, a social sharing site for peer support, workout and meal logging, and it also works well with other great apps such as RunKeeper to help you reach your health goals faster!

Curious? Of course you are. Check out fitbit’s website for more info or watch this quick video!

It’s a challenge to stay motivated during the winter months unless you are an avid skier, boarder, or enjoy snowshowing!  Staying active will not only aid your waistline through January and February, it will also help keep those winter blues at bay and help improve your overall health. I find that jumping in on an indoor group class helps me stay motivated. Here are 5 great group fitness classes to keep you happy and healthy through the winter months.

Spinning

Spinning is all the rage these days. It’s no surprise considering the fact that one 40-minute spin class can burn as many as 500 calories. I can’t think of a better way to stay in shape and keep warm during January.

Yoga

Become a yogi this winter and soothe your body and mind. The combination of strengthening poses, stretches, and mediation are an excellent way to stay trim and optimistic during these dark and cold winter months.

Spin yoga?

Yes, spin yoga. It’s like a two for one deal, combining the strengthening and meditative qualities of yoga with the cardiovascular, calorie-burning elements of spinning. The two forms of exercise may seem to be at opposite ends of the spectrum, but compliment each other nicely. And both encourage the student to center, finding a mind/body connection.

A typical class will start with yoga poses on a mat. The poses become more rigorous as you warm up. Once your warm and have gotten a bit of upper body strengthening, it’s time to spin. Classes range anywhere from 60 to 90 minutes.

Zumba

This is cardio like you’ve never experienced it before. Zumba is a Latin-infused, high calorie burning dance fitness class. It’s a fun way to get fit and feel great.

Kettlebell

The great thing about training with kettlebells is that it tones and strengthens the entire body. Athletes have used these techniques for sometime, but kettlebell has only recently made a splash in the mainstream fitness world. A class involves series of exercises, performed with bowling ball sized weights that have handles for lifting. These exercises use multiple muscles at once, toning and strengthening the core.

With the busy season past us now, I salute all of you who stayed strong during the holidays and resisted the temptations of sweets, treats, and adult beverages. But for those who caved from the overwhelming amount of social gathering and holiday delectables, 2012 is a great time to press ‘restart’ on your body. What transpired with your weight loss goals over the holidays is done and it’s time to focus on a whole new year of health and happiness. One great way to rid your body of the holiday impurities and start fresh is a detoxifying cleanse.

A good cleanse can help alleviate fatigue or that ‘out of sorts’ feeling. Additionally, rebooting your system can help clear up skin blemishes, improve circulation, and lessen digestion aliments. Not sure which one is right for you? Next time you’re in, just ask!

Happy New Year!

Make 2012 the year of a more healthy you, inside and out with Dr. Grover’s hand picked book selections! Pick these up for yourself or stuff them in the stockings of friends and family for the holidays! Happy reading!

It’s that time again ladies for holiday dresses and parties. But are you avoiding this season’s festivities because you’re feeling self conscious about Spider veins? Caused by weak vascular walls and inefficient circulation, spider veins cause no health problems but many people feel they look unappealing.

So what’s a girl to do? Treat yourself to legs free of spider veins with Sclerotherapy!  Sclerotherapy is a treatment specifically for the removal of small to medium sized spider veins and smaller varicose veins. Veins are injected with a sterile chemical sclerant, which irritates the vessel’s lining, making it become inflamed, harden, and eventually fade away completely. Blood circulation is carried out through healthy veins located deeper within the body, so the outward appearance and sometimes pain associated with the problem veins is significantly reduced!

The number of treatments often depends on the size, depth and number of veins the patient has. Those with just a few small areas of concern could possibly see satisfactory results in just one session whereas those with more or larger veins might schedule a few follow up treatments. The best part is that Sclerotherapy is minimally invasive and almost pain free due to the small needles used for the procedure.

If you’re ready for legs without spider veins contact me for a complimentary 15-minute consultation!
