Counteracting the Evils of the Dental Chair
While working on patients dental professionals tend to hold the same posture for hours without much movement at all of certain muscles and over-stimulation of others. This leads to nothing but muscle pain and strain. Even with a well-designed workstation, when working long hours leaning over a dental chair, physical problems may arise.
Movement is critical to ergonomic posturing and keeping good body health when it is required to continue working at a single task for hours at a time. Stretching is just about the simplest of all physical activities and is the perfect antidote for long periods of inactivity and holding still. Our course objective is to teach you how to stretch and specific exercises that can be performed in a dental office designed for the postural stressors created working as a dentist. By stretching regularly throughout the day, you will:
- Reduce muscle tension
- Improve circulation
- Reduce anxiety, stress, and fatigue
- Improve mental alertness
- Decrease the risk of injury
- Make your work easier
- Tune your mind into your body
- Make you feel better!
Join us for this course and you will leave with tools to benefit your life, health, productivity and accuracy.

Nutrition Made Simple
Our lives are busier now than they've ever been. Given our daily challenges, it's easy to lose sight of healthy eating. Having a balanced diet is important in being able to keep up the energy that you need to compete with the demands you face in running a busy practice while being strained for time. The main objective of this course is to educate you on how to interpret food labels, differentiate good fats vs. bad fats and understand which veggies and fruits are best in order to help you analyze your own diet and food choices. We will also discuss what the gluten free craze is all about and how it relates to losing weight, sleeping well and feeling great.
We all know the foods you eat have a great effect on your health. By incorporating the recommendations from the course on how to live and eat healthy you will gain a better understanding of how to integrate good nutrition into your busy lifestyle.
