Strengthen Your Core
Your core zippers the two halves of your body together. The core muscles support your spine, control the body’s balance, and center of gravity. When your core is not strong, it causes joints and muscles that are not in charge of balance to have to take over for the core muscles.
This can lead to poor performance, fatigue, pain, and damage to the joints. Solution: don’t have kids… Just kidding, but seriously: being pregnant, c sections, and other surgeries in the belly area can cause weakness in the core. Core strength is something we work on in the Physical Therapy department in the office. Read more
Can acupuncture treat my…
Chinese Medicine is a full service medicine that can treat a great variety of ailments by addressing each person as an individual. Unlike Western Medicine, it does not treat or cure diseases.

You and your bad posture
I wonder how many of you remember your mother nagging you to “stand up straight and don’t slouch?” You may have been annoyed with her constant nagging, but mom was on to something here.
Forward head posture is one of the leading causes of pain in the neck and shoulders. How many of you sit at a desk staring at a computer for over 8 hours a day 5 days a week?
Over the years, gradual changes to body position can slowly wear away at joints and surrounding soft tissues. Chronic pain, TMJ, and headaches may appear if changes progress and postural alterations remain uncorrected. Read more

A Miraculous Story
One of our new patients has given us permission to share his story. Everyone at our office is excited, and it has reminded me why I became a chiropractor. In the words of the patient:
“I have been having severe pain since Thanksgiving 2014. I have had several meetings with an orthopedic doctor whose specialty was arthritis and joint replacement. I’ve had a full battery of x-rays/MRI done to diagnose my condition to which I was told to be severe arthritis deeply inflamed with fluids pushing on the nerves. After I was prescribed an injection that I was told would take care of everything, the pain was back within 36 hours — worse than before. Read more
Vitamin Supplements
How can this be true? Well, supplements are not regulated by the FDA. As far as the government’s health watch dog, there’s no rule that says Vitamin C capsules actually have to contain Vitamin C. Therefore, less scrupulous companies might try to sell you a capsule of dirt. Read more
Water Water Everywhere
But people need to drink water all year round. Have you ever heard of someone getting sick and then going to the hospital because they are dehydrated?
Drinking plenty of water is a good habit all year round. The average person needs roughly 8 cups of water per day. When I say water, I mean the clear stuff. Coffee, soda, tea, etc. do not count as water . Read more
