Chiropractic Spine and Sports Rehabilitation to hold Spring Wellness Workshop on April 13th

Dr. Carol DeFranca, a Board Certified Chiropractic Orthopedist and the Nutrition team at Chiropractic Spine and Sports Rehabilitation in Norwell will hold a FREE Spring Wellness workshop on Monday, April 13th from 7 to 8:30 p.m. at the South Shore Natural Science Center on Jacobs Lane (Route 123) in Norwell.

Attendees will learn about the important role of detoxifying the body to maintain good health. Topics to be covered include:

· The differences between a detox, cleanse and fast

· Which foods are best to eat during a detox

· Which nutrients fuel the detoxification process

· The liver and its role in health

“Nutrition plays an important role in illness and prevention. Some health problems such as chronic fatigue, irritable bowel syndrome, headaches and allergies are linked to what is known as ‘toxic overload’ from continuous exposure to environmental toxins,” Dr. DeFranca explained. “Our Spring Wellness workshop will discuss detoxification as an important process that cleanses the body of these foreign chemicals and toxins.”

Complimentary nutritious shakes and bars will also be served.

Space is limited. Call (781) 982-5566 to register. For more information, contact the Chiropractic Spine and Sports nutrition team at (781) 982-5566 or visit their website at www.norwellspineandsports.com.
