  • Relaxation Techniques

Today, we are more stressed-out than ever before. The stress of careers, deadlines, conflicts, and demands on our time and money, take a huge toll on our health and well-being. Just as a chain tends to break at its weakest link, we seem to exhibit stress and strain in the weakest areas of our bodies. Stress basically comes in three forms of overload. We encounter physical stress, emotional stress, and chemical stress. In fact, we are subject to all three stress factors at the same time. When we overload, it always manifests in symptoms at our weakest link. Stress can provoke ulcers, migraines, low back pain, insomnia, and other illnesses.

It is impossible to remove all of the stress from life, however, safe all-natural and effective stress reduction strategies can help offset the bad effects that stress produces. This strengthens the function of the nervous and immune systems at the same time, so you can make stress your friend, not your enemy. After decades of research, it is clear that the negative effects associated with stress are real. Although you may not always be able to avoid stressful situations, there are a number of things that you can do to reduce the effect that stress has on your body. The first is relaxation. Learning to relax doesn't have to be difficult. In this section are some simple techniques to help get you started on your way to tranquility.

    Category: Healthy Thinking, Relaxation Techniques

    The goal of progressive muscle relaxation is to reduce the tension in your muscles. First, find a quiet place where you'll be free from interruption. Loosen tight clothing and remove your glasses or contacts if you'd like. Tense each muscle group for at least five seconds and then relax for at least

  • Control Your Breathing
    Category: Healthy Thinking, Relaxation Techniques

    Relaxed breathing, also called diaphragmatic breathing, can help you relieve stress. Have you ever noticed how you breathe when you're stressed? Stress typically causes rapid, shallow breathing. This kind of breathing sustains other aspects of the stress response, such as rapid heart rate and perspiration.

  • Soothing Sounds
    Category: Healthy Thinking, Relaxation Techniques

Testimonials

  • "I had never been to a chiropractor prior to coming to Dr Vargo’s office so I was nervous on what to expect. Dr Vargo and his staff are so personable and kind they made me feel at ease! I had almost no neck pain after my 3rd visit-would highly recommend!"
    Sarah S. - Canton, Ohio
  • "I have had a very good experience for the second time. Years ago I injured my back at work and received good care with total relief of my symptoms. Lately I was experiencing back pain with daily activities and returned to Dr Vargo before the pain became intense and limited my movement. Within a few treatments I have received relief and am almost pain free. Thank you"
    Bruce W. - Canton, Ohio
  • "I have been a patient of Dr Vargo for the past 15 years. As a previous employeee I have seen him work miracles numerous times from relieving migraines, asthma and pain, to rehabilitating shoulders, knees and other extremities (he is board certified in Rehabilitation) in addition to treating the spine and neck. To top it off he is a Christian and loves the Lord. He is honest, trustworthy and an excellent chiropractor. He treats each patient the same way he would treat any of his own family members and is genuinely concerned with each individual's well-being. I would highly recommend Dr. Vargo!"
    Casey S. - Canal Fulton, Ohio
  • "I have been taking my newborn to Dr.Vargo for adjustments to help her reflux. This is the only thing that has helped her; we can see a marked improvement after a few visits! Dr. Vargo and all the staff are professional and warm. Highly recommend!"
    Lydia H. - Canton, Ohio
  • "I have been seeing Dr. Vargo for a long time and I love him. He is very personable and friendly. Most of all, he has helped me feel so much better. I go in there with pain and walk out without pain. Highly recommend Dr. Vargo! Also, the staff members are all very friendly and helpful also. I don't feel like a number when I go there."
    Diana S. - E. Sparta, Ohio
  • "Read the reviews for Vargo chiropractic and one thing becomes very clear. Vargo chiropractic is a great place to get consistent caring professional help. I thought my problems might just be a result of aging but Dr. Vargo and Carol his physical therapist were able to help me a great deal to reduce pain in my neck and back and to increase my range of motion. Thank you thank you. I will be back for my monthly check ups."
    Kathlene D. - Canton, Ohio
  • "Ron Vargo and his staff have done an excellent job in healing my back. I am now pain free and continue my checkup visits to remain pain free. Most recently he helped me get customized shoe sole inserts which have helped my feet tremendously!"
    Clark H. - Canton, Ohio
