Happy New Year!!!

All of us at Glenbourne Chiropractic would like to say Thanks So Much to all of our patients for their support & contribution towards our Adopt-a-Family fundraiser. Because of all your efforts we were able to meet and exceed our goal of $700! We would like to congratulate our winners for the Guess the Movie Contest (Calvin S.), 50/50 draw (Elizabeth S.), and Gift Basket (Calvin H.). A special thanks goes out to our own Mary Beth Nicholson for organizing and shopping for our adopted family this year. She found the deals and managed to make the most out of her budget, way to go MB!!! Because of her we were able create a wonderful holiday season for our adoptive family.

Previously we let you know that we had introduced a Metascan Gait Analysis System to our wellness practice to better help our patients achieve their health goals. The Metascan system identifies those individuals who have poor foot biomechanics. Using this information, the doctor's are able to properly measure the specific attributes of the patients gait cycle and determine which modifications are needed to correct the biomechanical dysfunction. What you may not be aware of is that Dr. Fox has begun a Pedorthics course which will further enhance his knowledge to better serve the Clayton Park area with their orthotic needs. Watch our future newsletters for updates!
