Northwest Sunny Days

  In the Pacific Northwest we are not used to experiencing many summer days above 75 degrees.  And when they do occur we find ourselves over heated and wondering how to stay cool?  Here are some tips on how to beat the heat this summer!

  Avoid foods that are hot or create heat: spices, hot peppers, garlic, lamb, and shrimp.  Eat foods that are cool such as Asian pears, melons, salads, mint or chrysanthemum teas.  Avoid heavy outdoor activity especially between the hours of 11 AM and 2 PM.  Try an afternoon nap, the body naturally cools down when we rest.  If you do get overheated, massage the acupressure point on your outer elbow crease, or spray water with a few drops of lavender essential oil on your legs and feet, or an ice pack wrapped in a pillow case on the back of your neck.  lastly, we have air conditioning here at Doyle Chiropractic Clinic!  Come and visit your favorite Chiropractor and Massage Therapist to get your spine aligned and a relaxing massage on a hot summer day.
