Our experienced, professional massage therapists provide exceptional care and effective massages based on your needs," said Dr. Jacob Sahourieh, owner of Green Chiropractic Clinic.

Green Chiropractic Clinic added massage therapy to complement high quality chiropractic services. People struggling with pain and discomfort find that combining chiropractic care and massage therapy tends to produce optimal results for overall health and wellness. Clients can choose from Swedish, sports or deep tissue massages from a masseuse (female massage therapist) or a masseur (male massage therapist) who provides foot, back or full body massages to release muscle tension and relieve body pains.

The clinic began as a vision of Dr. Jacob G. Sahourieh to help people live pain-free by utilizing conservative, natural techniques to relieve tension and manage pain. The clinic also seeks to minimize any impact on the environment by using recycled products throughout the office, efficient energy options, electronic medical records systems, and generally "green" decision making. In addition, Green Chiropractic Clinic promotes a preventative approach to healthcare that focuses on a return to health so that wellness is the norm rather than the exception.

Ensuring research integrity

Canada needs an agency to investigate research misconduct, states an editorial in CMAJ (Canadian Medical Association Journal) (pre-embargo link only) http://www.cmaj.ca/embargo/cmaj110442.pdf.
Although honesty, accuracy and professionalism of scientists are vital for research integrity, there have been many public examples of serious research misconduct. Conflicts of interest, author misrepresentation and manipulation of data are other issues that also affect scientific and academic research.
Scientific journals can and will investigate misconduct when detected, and ...
Sexual orientation affects cancer survivorship
2011-05-10
Gay men have a higher prevalence of cancer compared with heterosexual men, and lesbian and bisexual female cancer survivors report lower levels of health than heterosexual female cancer survivors. Those are the conclusions of a new study published early online in Cancer, a peer-reviewed journal of the American Cancer Society. The study's findings shed light on the types of programs and services that are needed to assist lesbian, gay, and bisexual cancer survivors.
Cancer surveillance studies don't ask questions about sexual orientation, which means there is scarce information ...
Methane levels 17 times higher in water wells near hydrofracking sites
2011-05-10
DURHAM, N.C. – A study by Duke University researchers has found high levels of leaked methane in well water collected near shale-gas drilling and hydrofracking sites. The scientists collected and analyzed water samples from 68 private groundwater wells across five counties in northeastern Pennsylvania and New York.
"At least some of the homeowners who claim that their wells were contaminated by shale-gas extraction appear to be right," says Robert B. Jackson, Nicholas Professor of Global Environmental Change and director of Duke's Center on Global Change.

Immature skull led young tyrannosaurs to rely on speed, agility to catch prey
2011-05-10
ATHENS, Ohio (May 9, 2011)—While adult tyrannosaurs wielded power and size to kill large prey, youngsters used agility to hunt smaller game.
"It's one of the secrets of success for tyrannosaurs—the different age groups weren't competing with each other for food because their diets shifted as they grew," said Ohio University paleontologist Lawrence Witmer.
Witmer is part of an international team of scientists from Japan, Mongolia and the United States that analyzed the youngest and most-complete known skull for any species of tyrannosaur, offering a new view of the ...
Sensitizing prostate cancer to radiotherapy
2011-05-10
Men with prostate cancer whose disease has spread locally from inside the prostate to immediately outside it are primarily treated with radiation therapy. However, disease recurs in approximately half of these individuals. Strategies to enhance the efficacy of this treatment and thereby decrease the incidence of disease recurrence are clearly needed. Shawn Lupold and colleagues, at Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, Baltimore, have now developed an approach that enhances the therapeutic effects of radiation therapy in mice bearing human prostate cancer xenografts. ...
Reducing the side effects of a multiple sclerosis drug
2011-05-10
The drug FTY720 is approved for the treatment of multiple sclerosis. Although highly effective it can have serious side effects, including reduced lung function and fluid accumulation in the eye. Understanding the multiple molecular mechanisms by which the drug affects its target (the S1P receptor) could lead to the development of a drug with the same therapeutic efficacy but reduced side effects. In this context, a team of researchers, led by Timothy Hla, at Weill Cornell Medical College, New York, has now detailed the molecular mechanism by which FTY270 causes adverse ...
