I AM THE CURE.™
Dr Heidi rally's with Komen for the Cure

Komen for the Cure has developed a compelling educational initiative called I AM THE CURE.™ This program empowers people with the knowledge that early detection truly makes a difference. More importantly, it motivates people to take an active role in their own breast health. These words, and the simple steps that lead to early detection, will come to life as thousands of Komen Race for the Cure® participants make I AM THE CURE.™ their rallying cry on Race day.

Dr. Heidi and InnerMovement staff will be offering educational information about Nutritional and Lifestyle choices that can dramatically reduce your risk of Breast Cancer. She will also be educating on Spinal health and its powerful relationship to Immune Function.

InnerMovement performing Health Screenings at Glendale's Downtown Dash

(A 5K Run/Walk to Benefit Stroke Survivors and Prevention for our Community)

A bit about Stroke from Dr. Heidi's Perspective Stroke is the third leading cause of death in the United States and the second leading cause of death for San Fernando Valley area residents.Which means that each one of us have friends or family members that have been effected by stroke. While the disabling results of a stroke are most often preventable, it remains the leading cause of adult disability in the country. What can we do to help? The wrong answer is to do nothing but prescribe more drugs. We are not deficient in Lipitor! As a matter of fact people are dropping dead of heart disease and stroke at the same rates as before even if their cholesterol was lowered by medication. So now what? The simple answer is to educate on prevention, but the reality is that unless a person has a clear understanding and a team to hold their hand Lifestyle Modification becomes nearly impossible. We are bombarded with marketing on food that is literally killing us, and we have become an extremely sedentary society. We are unaware of which foods we should be eating that can actually heal us and we are still being told that anything outside of Western Medicine will do no good.

What is InnerMovement doing to help? Dr. Heidi and the staff at InnerMovement continuously educate patients on the benefits of Exercise, Nutrition, Stress Reduction, and Lifestyle Modification to prevent not only stroke but all forms of chronic illness. This weekend our team joins Downtown Glendale and Glendale Adventist in raising awareness of Stroke Prevention. This weekend Dr. Heidi will be performing spinal screenings for the community, as well as answering any health related questions as they pertain to improving one's emotional, physical or nutritional health. What can you do to help? We are asking you to reach out to one person you believe could benefit from a visit with Dr. Heidi. Bring them to our booth and we will give them a gift, perform a spinal screening and consult with them regarding their particular health challenge. We will also have Miss Arlene giving chair massages at the booth to anyone in need.

The doctor of the future will give no medicine, but will interest his patients in the care of the human frame, in diet, and in the cause and prevention of disease.
