Dr. Kantara has announced his candidacy for a seat on the city council in League City, a midsize city of 50,000 located approximately 25 miles southeast of Houston.
Dr. Kantara's candidacy letter is as follows:
| After serving the community of League City, Texas as an EMT and paramedic for over four years, I am now ready to serve my community, a population of 50,000, in a different capacity. Therefore, I have decided to run for city council on May 1, 1999. While special interest groups support the other candidates, I am running independently represented by my family, friends and those who have witnessed my dedication to my community. In order to campaign successfully for this non-expired seat, I am reaching for my friends, fellow chiropractors and chiropractic advocates for campaign donations. For more information, you can visit my website at http://www.flash.net/~drhameed and/or call my office at (713) 782-7775. Campaign donations, however small they are, are welcomed at 7575 San Felipe, Suite 125B, Houston, TX 77063. I thank you for your support and generosity. Hamid Kantara, DC |
When sports chiropractors first appeared at the Olympic Games in the 1980s, it was alongside individual athletes who had experienced the benefits of chiropractic care in their training and recovery processes at home. Fast forward to Paris 2024, where chiropractic care was available in the polyclinic for all athletes, and the attitude has now evolved to recognize that “every athlete deserves access to sports chiropractic."
It is estimated that 61% of patients with CTS avoid taking surgical options due to postoperative complications and costly surgical procedures. Chiropractic care offers a comprehensive and effective treatment for carpal tunnel syndrome, addressing the condition from multiple angles. Recent studies also have unveiled a game-changing adjunct to chiropractic treatments for CTS: nerve flossing.
Some doctors thrive in a personality-based clinic and have a loyal following no matter what services or equipment they offer, but for most chiropractic offices who are trying to grow and expand, new equipment purchases help us stay relevant and continue to service our client base in the best, most up-to-date manner possible. So, regarding equipment purchasing: should you lease, get a bank loan, or pay cash?
