Box 579, Terrace Bay, or bring it to our office at Simcoe Plaza HEALTHY LIVING Read this before you take your next trip by air Along with jet lag, most businessmen and vacation travelers suf- fer from a malady that cuts in on their physical alertness once they get off the plane. It might be called "body let down."' Here's what happens as a result of sitting in- actively for periods of time on long, and even short distance, flights. Your back hurts, your body gets stiff, your muscle tone is reduc- ed, your joints stiffen up, your feet swell, your circulation slows down, your coordination and reaction capacity slows down, the oxygen: sup- ply to your organs is re- duced, your mental alertness is: dulled. Often you get off the plane feeling tired, even though you've had a good night's sleep. Your stomach is upset. And your mind just isn't with the task at hand. What you hoped will be a productive business trip or pleasurable social trip starts off sluggish. Headaches, nervous- ness, diarrhea, and con- stipation are not unus- ual. Before you blame the inflight meal, it would be worthwhile to know that most everyone ex- periences the same problem. In fact, the American Astronauts did too. The problem can be overcome by keeping fit while on the flight. Ob- viously you can't jog or do strenuous exercises on an aircraft. And cer- tainly, most people would be too embarass- ed to do deep knee bends in the aisle. But you can do tone-build- ing, circulation-promot- ing exercises while you are sitting. You can do, them without bringing attention to yourself in a plane. And if you want, you can utilize the same method in the car, at a business conference, at your desk or in your living room. The procedure invol- ves muscle-tone train- ing. It is invisible, so it can be performed any- where and at anytime. How much time do you have to spend at it? Just 10 minutes. Here's what you do - 1. Stand-up and walk the length of the air- plane and return just to loosen up. 2. Sit down and start doing a series of ten- . sion exercises using var- ious groups of muscles. - Exercise rhythmically and systematically, sub- jecting each muscle group to a set contain- ing 5 repeats of the exer- cise. 3. Move your feet in a circle to loosen your an- kles. 4. Lift your legs from the floor to the bottom of the seat in front of you and return without put- ting your feet on the floor. 5. Tighten muscles with about one half of your strength in an iso- metric series. Work on the legs, thighs, but- tocks, chest, stomach, arms, back and shoul- ders. : 6. Do a series of fist clenches. If you have a ball or object handy, squeeze it. Count to five. while your muscle is flexed and then relax. - 7. Clasp your hands together and place them against your stomach. Tense your stomach muscles. Count to five and relax. 8. Push walls. Exert strength of both hands on walls and push at shoulder length. Count to five and relax. Of course, the recom- mendations above are just stop-gap steps while travelling. The On- tario Chiropractic Asso- ciation recommends a Kenora resident maintains mobility " '"*E never had: much: to do with doctors until 1969,"' says retired far- mer Harold Jackson of Kenora, '"but since then I feel like I'm seeing them all the time."' In 1969, Harold was told by his doctor that he had diabetes. He had his left leg amputated in 1978 because of related circulatory complica- tions. '"'It was a very aggravating experience, with a slow process to adjust,"' he says. ' His sudden disa- bility meant that he had to give up his dairy farming after 50 years and move to the nearby town of Kenora. There, the Ontario March of Dimes helped him to deal with a new and dif- ferent lifestyle. At the time of the 'amputation of his leg, Harold was put in touch with the staff of the Ontario March of Dimes"' office in Thun- der Bay Shortly thereafter, he received an artificial leg through the organization's As- sistive Devices Pro- gram. Through this pro- gram, the March of Dimes provides _elec- tronic aids, walkers, wheelchairs and other pieces of specialized equipment to help phy- sically disabled adults: across Ontario experi- ence more meaningful and dignified lives. Circulation problems related to diabetes con- tinued to plague Har- old to the point that any long distance walking was impossible - even with his crutches. Once again his mobility was severely restricted. And once again, the March of Dimes was there to-help. In 1980, the organiza- tion provided Harold with a wheelchair which gave him new-found freedom. As well as providing equipment, the Ontario March of Dimes also covered nearly $600 worth of Harold's medi- cal expenses not covered through O.H.I.P. For Harold, the organization. has been a big help. "It's 'marvelous -- what they do for people - they bring them back into the mainstream of society."' Now Harold is as act- ive as ever. He drives his car without difficulty and: is out and about quite a bit. "Il swim every day at the local pool just after the kids finish their lessons. I get some very interesting questions when I un- strap my artificial leg - they're always very curious," he adds. The Ontario March of Dimes helped Harold through the provision of assistive devices. And disabled adults across the province are aided in many other ways as ~ well. Every summer, the organization operates residential holiday camps at three loca- tions. The camps are de- signed to help disabled adults enjoy a relax- ing vacation and still receive all the medical care they need. The March of Dimes pays all or part of the fees for those who. can- not afford to pay them- selves. The organization also offers training and -employmenti_ opportuni- ties at 11 Ability :Cen- tres across the provin- ce, funds medical re- search and assists. con- sumer groups to achieve. legislative change 'to. benefit the disabled community. | Many of the March of Dimes' dependent upon the generosity of public do- nations during the Abil- ity Fund campaign and throughout the year. . 4 Viz ice your Fund 3 | programs are.
