Dr. Wendy Schauer has been a practicing chiropractor for 14 years. Many of her patients have chronic pain due to weakness. They are lacking core and back strength. They feel better with chiropractic adjustments but the relief is temporary. Dr. Schauer got interested in Kettlebells through Pavel Tsatsouline, MS. Pavel is the gentleman who brought Kettlebells from Russia to the United States.
Exercises with Kettlebells utilize the entire body - legs, butt, abs, arms. You can get strength, cardio, and flexibility all in one. Kettlebells are excellent for strengthening the lower back. Dr. Schauer had chronic low back pain for years which she treated with chiropractic, acupuncture, and massage. It was only after one month after training with Kettlebells that she was relieved of her pain.
We will also be reviewing the book Lucky by Alice Sebold. Lucky is an intimate and frightening recollection of the college rape of Alice Sebold. Through her amazing prose, she eloquently describes her experience, and triumphs over her attack, and her attacker.
