"When Exercise Accelerates Aging!"
Dr. James Stoxen, D.C. appears Friday night
WGN, Channel 9 at 9:00 PM for a special medical report.
This special news report will feature Dr James Stoxen, D.C., President
of Team Doctors, Chiropractic Treatment and Training Centers. Dr.
Stoxen will talk about how mainstream research has confirmed that
inflammation accelerates aging. Now, a growing number of experts
believe as a result, in some cases, exercise also speeds the aging
process.
Dr. James Stoxen's Team Doctors patients, Cindy Pender and "Designed To
Sell" (HGTV) host Belma Michael Johnson were interviewed by WGN News
about their success stories related to slowing the aging process
through a unique treatment and training program developed by Dr. Stoxen.
"How Exercise can Speed up the Aging Process" is the lecture subject
Dr. James Stoxen has been asked to present to over 20,000 physician
attendees at the China FDA, China-Pharm conference in Shanghai, October
29 - 31st. Immediately following, Dr. Stoxen has been asked to lecture
again on his treatment approach for reversing fallen arches to more
than 2,000 physicians, scientists, and hospital principals at the China
Health Industry Forum in Dong Guan near Hong Kong, November 1 - 4, 2007.
This treatment approach may be the first of its kind ever designed to
reverse fallen arches without the use of arch supports or surgery. The
approach is so unique that he has sought the expertise of Jerome Smith,
a medical patent attorney from the firm of Lathrop and Gage.
"Exercise, like running or walking with feet which have fallen arches
or those which have lost the elastic spring mechanism, produce abnormal
motions throughout the entire body which cause stress and strain in the
muscles ligaments and tendons, leading to wear and tear and the release
of inflammation," says Dr. James Stoxen, "and when this chronic
inflammation is released from so many joints is released into the body,
exercise doesn't make us healthier, it makes us age faster" The Chicago
doctor has lectured on this topic to over 20,000 medical doctors and
scientists worldwide. He's published over 20 articles on biomechanics
and treated hundreds of champion athletes and top celebrities.
Cindy Pender speaks about how she once weighed 360 pounds, had chronic
sciatic nerve pain and chronic pain and fatigue through out her body.
Now, after she lost the chronic pain, lost the sciatica, and lost over
160 pounds with Dr. Stoxen’s diet and training program, she exercises
pain free 3 days a week in the Team Doctors private gym. She also runs
barefoot in the park with her dog Kayla, hikes, bikes, swims, and even
climbed a 20 foot high tree last week. These are accomplishments she
has made for the first time in her 50 years.
Belma Michael Johnson talks about how he did not realize that the
chronic pain in his shoulder for 30 years was constantly releasing
inflammatory chemicals. The problem is, inflammation releases peptides
called cytokines that damage cells. The American Heart Association, the
Center of Disease and Control, and most experts now warn that over time
chronic inflammation contributes to a higher risk for heart attacks,
strokes, Alzheimer's, some cancers, and even the aging process itself.
The expert says studies show that this inflammation of joints releases
cytokines. "We walk 10,000 steps a day, and when we run a mile that is
around 1500 steps," he says, "and with each step with a frozen arch we
help spread that toxic soup throughout our bodies. All the while
patients are completely unaware this is going on."
And just what causes "incorrect" exercise? Dr. Stoxen has found it's
usually the exerciser's feet. Tests show the athlete's arch has lost
its natural elastic spring. The result is exercise produces unbalanced
forces that travel up the body. At first, the leg muscles compensate,
but eventually they become exhausted and those forces damage the knee,
hip, back, all the way up to the head. The inflammation is body-wide.
The dilemma is that people sometimes don't even know they have fallen
arches or a frozen arch spring mechanism causing this multi-joint
inflammation, and that makes matters worse. Inflammation is most
commonly associated with pain, but most of these multiple joint
inflammatory conditions don't cause pain. The inflammation is there,
but it's silent inflammation.
When someone walks or runs with vexed arch spring mechanism sometimes
they feel pain and other times they feel just stiffness. You don't feel
pain, but if you press into certain muscles I have mapped along a
predictable pattern related to a frozen arch the pain is excruciating
to the patients. We feel that inflammation when our muscles get stiff
and sore.
First, 60% of Americans are overweight or obese, which is an epidemic
which is a serious concern for the increased risk for heart attack,
stroke, and diabetes. What about the overload to the arch spring
mechanism? Second, Dr. Stoxen says that because we live in a flat hard
world we no longer walk on natural undulating terrain, which is a
natural stimulous for stimulating the development of the arch cuff
muscles which maintain its springiness and strength. Third, because
people walk with thick cushioning athletic footwear, which is really
meant for running, this weakens the foot and its arch.
Finally, the expert says modern women's shoes are usually too tight.
"Years ago there were C and D widths," says Dr. Stoxen. "Now everything
is a B, leaving 60% of women with shoes too tight for their feet."
All of which causes exercise to produce inflammation and aging: exactly
the opposite effect people intend. Dr. Stoxen says the exerciser often
feels fatigued, plantar fasciitis, suffers from nighttime leg cramps,
kneecap pain, hip and lower back pain. Oftentimes, when patients come
in with simple mechanical lower back pain when their gait is analyzed
they really have fallen arches which vex the foundation and a pattern
of painful spasms which are only found if you know where to look.
Dr. Stoxen has found the diagnosis of chronic inflammation is easy.
"When I press on certain structural points on the arches, calves,
thighs, and hips, patients feel intense pain. Most have no idea their
muscles are so inflamed."
The reason why Dr Stoxen has been invited to speak all over the world
is because he claims he is the first and only doctor to develop a
treatment approach, which reverses fallen arches without the use of
orthotics or surgery. In fact he has hired Jerome Smith a medical
patent attorney from Lathrop and Gage to patent the approach for him.
I rebuild the entire foot's 26 bones (and 51 joints) with this approach
reestablishing the natural spring mechanism. This is vital to healthy
walking to slow aging rather than cause multi-joint degenerative
arthritis and an acceleration of the disease process and aging. It's
exciting to develop something so new and exciting for such a severe
frustrating problem to treat. The approach also includes specially
designed exercises to strengthen the arch making the relief more
long-lasting.
"The goal," he says, "is to allow people to exercise without
inflammation. When done correctly, exercise is a wonderful gift that
slows aging. The problem is in the real world, it's sometimes having
exactly the opposite effect.”
Dr. Stoxen will be presenting some of the most useful exercise
prescriptions and program designs ever seen by anyone within the
fitness industry. His lecture is filled with so much valuable
information that your attendance at his presentation alone will be well
worth your investment.
