Dear Patients and Friends:
Happy October. Hopefully the kids are settled back in school, and at StillPointe we are "at home" in our new space. So it is on to October and the Women's Showcase. For the second year we are sponsoring the "Healthy YOU Screening Area" at the Showcase on Saturday, October 17. Join us and our co-sponsors so you can experience the great services we are offering that day. See the article below for details, and a link to the Women's Showcase website for ticket information.
Please note the article from Dr. Tim Montag. He will continue to be in our office, but is starting his own practice. Dr. Montag will lease space here, similar to what Dr. Baumgartner is doing with Rejuv Medical. While it may seem a bit unusual for two similar businesses to be in the same place, it is actually fairly common for Chiropractors to have separate businesses and share space. It is a good economic decision, we work well together, and it allows us each to focus on what is most important. For me, that is having more time to be available for patient care and less administration. I'm really enjoying the ease of the new space, and so does the rest of the staff. It feels relaxed and "homey." Please stop in soon and visit us!
You will also find information below on our specials of the month, recommendations on how to keep your immune system healthy (and avoid the flu), and see the newest member of the StillPointe family. Our front desk manager, Samantha, had baby, Miguel, on September 11th. He is a doll and they are both doing well.
As always, I really appreciate that you choose StillPointe, and welcome any comments or suggestions on how we can best serve you and your family.
In good health,
Dr. Susan Saetre and the StillPointe Staff

TOPIC OF THE MONTH:
"Keep Your Immune System Healthy
and Avoid the Flu!" |
 Many questions have come up lately about how to stay healthy in light of the H1N1 flu. The basics of preventing the flu are identical to what you want to be doing every day and every week in your normal lifestyle. There is a lot of fear promulgated in the media, but taking good care of yourself and using common sense will set you up for great success when it comes to any illness or condition. Follow these tips for even better immunity and nervous system strength.
Get adequate exercise - Three days a week for 30 minutes each time is a great way to start. If you haven't been doing anything for exercise, talk to me and I will help you get started.
Get enough rest - Your body gains energy and strength from sleep. If you aren't sleeping well, you will be robbing your immune system of "fighters," so to speak, and you will not be as ready for things that come along. Sleep well to fight well - at least seven hours a night.
Clean up your diet - Sweep out the sugars and processed foods. The power of your immune system is compromised by putting chemicals and preservatives in your body. A good place to start is by eating all natural, low sugar and organic when you can. And remember to drink LOTS of water. Hydration keeps cells healthy.
Get regular chiropractic adjustments - A subluxation-free nervous system allows your body to function at its highest potential. Your immune function is directly controlled and powered by your nervous system. When you are adjusted, your power is boosted and your immune strength is enhanced. Be well adjusted to stay well!
Clear your mind - Mental/emotional stress drains your body's ability to deal with everyday needs. The clearer you are thinking and the more relaxed your mind is, the quicker you will respond to any health threat such as a flu or an injury.
Take good supplements - I know you have heard this before, but once again - it is the key. Vitamin D3, Vitamin C, B12 and essential fatty acids (omega 3), are powerful for fighting off the flu. In addition, if you take a good probiotic (acidophilus), you are 25% less likely to get sick because you have the good bacteria in your gut to handle the "bugs." Yogurt is a good source for this, but during flu season, it is important to supplement as well. Our October "Products of the Month" are probiotics to support your immune system.
Use the Young Living "Thieves" cleaning and essential oil products. They are antibacterial, antiviral and antimicrobial. For information about essential oils, or how to order, use the following link:
Lastly, use common sense - Wash your hands. Stay home if you feel sick. Eat foods you have prepared at home from scratch whenever possible as they are filled with antioxidants and useful nutrients.

A lot of great things are happening at StilPointe Natural Health Center. We're finally all feeling at home in our new office, we know where everything is, and you (our patients) are all entering the correct door! Now that we're comfortable, how about some more great news?
I (Dr. Montag) am enjoying my time at StillPointe. I've been here almost a year already! I feel very fortunate to be here - it is a great location, in a terrific community, with a beautiful facility. My career goal includes owning my own practice. That is why I'm excited to announce that I'm beginning my practice WHILE I'm still here at StillPointe! Starting October 1st, 2009, I will be renting space from Dr. Saetre, under my new name, "Total Health Chiropractic." This arrangement is mutually beneficial for us. As I begin my new endeavor with a lot less overhead than if I opened a new office, it also helps StillPointe offset some of their expenses by having me rent space from them. Dr. Saetre and I are both excited about this!
I will continue to provide the same type of treatment with an emphasis on spinal and extremity injuries, rehabilitation, nutrition, and prevention. As for you, my patients, it should feel very familiar. You will still check in at the front desk. I'll treat you, and handle all of the co-pays, scheduling, etc., directly from my office where you will be treated. Easy, right?
My new phone number is (320) 257-8408 - other than that, not much else will change. I know there will be some confusion and/or questions. I'll do my best to answer them for you, and the front desk at StillPointe will continue their gracious service as we go through this transition together. We are a cohesive family unit and are always here to help in any way we can. This is an exciting time for all of us here. Change is a good thing and when it comes to our health, we need all the change we can get! |

StillPointe SERVICE UPDATE: |
 NEW ADJUSTING TECHNIQUE AT STILLPOINTE:
Dr. Saetre attended training in September to learn the Impulse Adjusting Instrument. This technique is based on ten years of extensive research and engineering. Impulse features new wave technology tuned to the natural frequency of the body, resulting in more efficient adjustments that are one hundred times faster than a manual adjustment. This technique is very safe, comfortable and works on the neuromechanical receptors in the body to produce the optimum adjustment to each area. It is designed to work with all ages and health conditions. Check it out on your next visit. |
