Learn for Life

Wellness image.

Ever think about enrolling in a course at a local college just for the sheer joy of learning something new? There is something to be said for one’s personal pursuit for knowledge, with no other motivation than just to tickle your brain cells and expand your mind. But it often takes some doing to convince some people to enroll in a course just for the fun of learning.

These days, most people are acutely aware of the benefits of a college education. Careers, life choices, income – all depend on formal preparedness for a competitive national and global workforce. But what happens after formal college learning is done? Is your post-college education limited to television and radio and in newspapers, stimulating conversation with peers, career trade journals, or reading the latest non-fiction masterpiece? Or is there something more?

A local college may offer courses that can broaden your horizons and expand your personal awareness, such as:

  • Digital Photography Basics
  • Decorate (Or Dress) For Success
  • Pet First Aid
  • Learn to Draw Basics
  • Become a Human Lie Detector
  • Introduction Sign Language
  • Activate Your Ability to Become a Healer
  • How to Rollerblade

And the list goes on and on. The point is to identify something you’re interested in learning more about and go out and do it! To learn something new, you have to get up off the sofa, and who knows, you may meet like-minded people and make new friends! Sounds like a win-win situation all around – for you and your brain!

 Dr. Jeff Asks some important questions of interest to Dubuque residents - Chiropractor Dubuque Dr. Jeff Asks...

Can someone who has had back surgery receive chiropractic care?
Yes. Rest assured that we will avoid the surgically modified areas of your spine. However, what we find is that surgical interventions will often produce spinal instability above or below the involved level. This is will be the focus of your chiropractic care.
How do you know when you're healthy?
Ask most Dubuque residents this simple question and you're likely to hear, "When you feel good" or "When you're at your proper weight for your height" or "When you have lots of energy and vitality." Great answers. But our chiropractic patients know that true health is when your body is working as it was designed. True health is how you function, not how you feel.
