The forum runs each Sunday evening, from 6-7 p.m. Pacific Time (9 p.m. EST). To get there, enter the keyword Better Health, and click on the Health & Medical Chat icon.
The chat schedule for the remainder of the year:
| Dec 1: | Dr. Stephen Perle -- TBA |
| Dec 8: | Managed Care |

There will be no Sunday chats for Dec. 22 and 29 because of the Christmas and New Year's holidays.
On Tuesdays, Dr. Dubin can be found hosting Health Naturally, in the Digital City San Francisco area of America Online, from 8 to 9 p.m., Pacific Time. Health Naturally is devoted to bringing the public information about nondrug, nonsurgical approaches to health care.

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?
