I see many clients for pain mgmt as a massage therapist. Low muscle mass and midline to high fat ratios seem common among those with high pain levels. Having heathy muscle and bones that support the frame seem key to pain mgmt. However most clients are professionals in highly busy routines with school, work and family obligations and their bodies are less than a priority, just as mentioned by Dr. Riolo, it's so true. We all feel this perhaps at times. I encourage them to dedicate a base line of time, to establish a routine before veering away. Making their bodies and there health a priority. Also, once these healthier choices Dr. Riolo mentioned are part of ones mind set and habits, the body seems to crave them...making it easier to sustain healthier choices over time.

I lose my interest in true yoga. When I come to the mat, the dance of awareness begins...and it is that on which I focus - and that which benefits the rest of my life off the mat.Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06491976434541893350noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5635402398869164881.post-45208305929677374232011-06-21T15:18:08.108-04:002011-06-21T15:18:08.108-04:00Hi Lisa, I'm in your Cityoga basics class and ...Hi Lisa, I'm in your Cityoga basics class and just came across your blog. What are your thoughts on vegetable-fruit smoothies? I often blend greens like kale or spinach with fruit but unlike juicing all the pulp remains. I've not come across any science-backed research on the benefits of smoothies, I just find it's an effective way to get my leafy greens. Also: you're vegan? Me too!<br />-MeridithMeridithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11702077016451647307noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5635402398869164881.post-61345572221771906952011-05-26T10:36:53.602-04:002011-05-26T10:36:53.602-04:00I already told you in person that I appreciated th...I already told you in person that I appreciated this post, but receiving comments is an important part of blogging, so I thought I'd post it publicly.<br /><br />I, too, get asked a lot about my protein intake (I am vegetarian, not vegan). It's very frustrating. I have been tracking my food stats for about 8 months now and have found that I get more than enough protein for my body weight. It's really just ignorance; I don't think people realize the other sources of protein available to us. From now on, I am just going to send them a link to this post, so thanks!<br /><br />I am curious about your thoughts on iron. This is where I think I might be lacking, especially since women need more iron than men. I know spinach, molasses, lentils and beans all contain a good amount of iron, and I eat a lot of these items (except molasses), but how do you handle your iron intake? Maybe that can be your next blog post :)<br /><br />Anyways, great blog post, thanks for this!<br /><br />-Laura Frankfrangstyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04674774084627257891noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5635402398869164881.post-27108617199973257172011-04-12T21:11:58.291-04:002011-04-12T21:11:58.291-04:00Excellent advice and timely reminder(s).
