Finley Avenue Basking Ridge, NJ 07920 908-204-9909 www.fitnesstogether.com/baskingridge “I have been a Fitness Together client for a about a year and a half and have seen significant changes in my physique since I began. I have lost 13 pounds in the last three months and my endurance and overall strength have increased immensely! Taking full advantage of my sessions, I work with both Fitness Together trainers. Each bringing his particular style and methods, permits me to experience a variety of strength and cardio exercises. This diversity of circuit exercises keeps me from getting bored and challenges my muscles and endurance in multiple fashions. I began training with two sessions a week. My results were slow and steady. With patience, support and a determination to reach my realistic (and forever advancing) goals, I increased my visits to four times a week and the results were insurmountable! I look forward to each session with excited anticipation of how I will be challenged that day. Training at Fitness Together continues to inspire me on a life-changing path, both physically and mentally.” – AMY BEFORE AFTER BUY 36 OR MORE SESSIONS AND GET $200 OFF CHIROPRACTIC AND KIDS By: Dr. Jeanine Baer & Dr. Debra Maibach Stirling Health & Pain Management We get asked all the time about chiropractic and kids. Questions like: “If my child doesn’t have a bad back, why should they see a Chiropractic Physician?” and “Can Chiropractic care help my child?” Most folks recognize the value of chiropractic care for adults, but don’t realize those same benefits are there for our chil- dren, too. Whether a child has taken a tumble in the yard, strained their body playing sports, or has a curvature of the spine (scoliosis), chiropractic is safe and effective for children of any age. Treatments (called adjustments) are tailored to their age and weight and often require no more pressure applied when testing the ripeness of a tomato. The other main reason is for Pre- vention. It’s the same reason we take our children to the dentist twice a year for a check-up and cleaning. Our spines are at least as important as our teeth because our spines house our nervous system. It is a fact of sci- ence that the nervous system controls all the functions and systems of our bodies, so we want it to work right, without any interference. Our spinal bones can interfere with proper nervous system function. This interference can cause any num- ber of issues in the body. Chiro- practic physicians are trained to recognize the signs of nervous system interference, like dentists are trained to look for cavities. Chiropractic physicians make corrections (called adjustments) to prevent and eliminate nerv- ous system interference, like dentists make cleanings. Unlike dentistry however, chiropractic uses no drugs and is painless. In addition to programs for chil- dren – SportsKids W.I.N. (Well- ness & Injury Prevention) and Scoliosis Active Care, Dr. Baer and Dr. Maibach offer Care Pro- grams for Low Back Pain and Prevention, Neck Care, Vertigo and Balance Management, and Doctor Assisted Weight Loss. These are just a few of the most popular and successful care plans offered. Dr. Baer adjusts Lindsey S. for improved mechanics and function, expecially because Lindsey S. loves gymnastics.
