🎒Tips for backpack safety

1. Backpacks should not weigh more than 10% of your child's body weight

2. Choose a backpack with wide padded shoulder straps

3. Wear both shoulder straps to prevent shoulder alignment issues.

4. A backpack with multiple compartments can better distribute the load.

5. Look for backpacks with a waist and/or chest belt to better distribute heavy loads

6. Position the backpack below your shoulders and above your hips.

7. Every few weeks, clean out your backpack for unused items that may be weighing you down.

Kids need proper nutrition to help fuel them during their school day. Here are some healthy and delicious options for school lunches!

🥩Leftovers from last nights dinner are great! Chicken, steak strips, or hamburger or turkey lettuce wraps make easy and nutritious options for protein.

🥦Add some raw or roasted veggies (especially the cruciferous veggies like broccoli, cauliflower, kale or cabbage)

🥑For something crunchy, opt for chips cooked in avocado oil over traditional potato chips (Boulder Canyon or Siete are great brands!)

💧Avoid sugary drinks like fruit juices! Instead, pack water. You can even add some electrolyte powder to it! (Pick up some of our Clean Hydration Electrolyte powder at our office!)

😖Avoid processed foods like Lunchables!

🫐Fruit- Choose melon and berries over bananas and grapes to cut back on sugar

VScan HRV Testing

*What is HRV?
Heart Rate Variability (HRV) is the physiological phenomenon of variation in the time interval between heart beats. It is measured by the variation in the beat-to-beat intervals. We call this the time domain.

*A healthy HRV is reflected by lots of variation in the time domain between successive heart beats, which indicates a very robust Autonomic Nervous System (ANS). Someone with less variation between one heartbeat to the next has low HRV, which indicates decreased ANS regulation.

*VScan HRV breaks down the measurement of time intervals between heartbeats into very specific frequency bandwidths corresponding to the regulatory functions in the body, displaying an accurate measure of: Cardiovascular Adaptation, Autonomic Nervous System Regulation, Neuro-Hormonal Regulation and Psycho Emotional Balance.

The test itself takes only about 5-8 Minutes.

We offer Body Composition Analysis testing!

*What is Body Composition?
Body composition is the phrase used by medical professionals to refer to the percentage of fat, water, bone, muscle, skin, and other lean tissues that make up your body. Two people can weigh the same but have different wellness and fitness needs due to their body composition.

*Why is it important?
Body composition measures your overall health and fitness level in terms of your fat percentage. It measures the difference between how much of your weight comes from fat and how much from muscle, unlike your bathroom scale which measures weight only.

*How is Body Composition measured?
Our Mediana BCA scale uses bioelectrical impedance which is a tool that estimates your body composition by measuring your body's resistance to a low-level electric current. Muscles have a lower resistance to a electric current than fat. By standing on the scale with hands and feet in contact with the electrical contacts, your metrics can be accurately assessed. This test takes less than three minutes!

*Who should NOT have a BCA test?
1) Users with implanted pacemakers or electrical medical devices
2) Users with physical disabilities or prosthetic limbs preventing electrode contact
3) Pregnant women (required specialist assessment)
4) Patients recovering from surgery
