Keep Those Joints Moving! ๐โโ๏ธ
In the past, treatment of acute injuries, like sprains and strains, employed the acronym RICE:
โ๏ธ Rest
โ๏ธ Ice
โ๏ธ Compression
โ๏ธ Elevation
Now, some of these recommendations are under question...
A new study on early compression concluded:
โWe could not demonstrate either a beneficial or harmful effect from the application of a compression or elastic bandage.โ
And many studies have found that early mobility is better than rest or immobilization of many injuries. (Whenโs the last time you saw a foam neck collar?) ๐ค
Yes, the new standard of care for many conditions is to keep joints moving. And thatโs exactly why so many studies support chiropractic care! ๐

Just like plants, humans also require adequate hydration for good health and healing. If we do not consume enough water each day, our body can't remove toxins, which means longer healing times and a compromised immune system.
Not surprisingly, dehydration is linked to a multitude of conditions, from headaches to heart disease. Check out these tips for optimal hydration.๐

Your sacroiliac, or โSIโ joint, is the mechanical link on each side of your hip that connects your legs to the rest of your body. Symptoms develop when one or both of the joints loses normal motion. Pain may become more apparent when you change positions- like exiting a chair, car or bed, or during long car rides.
SI joint problems are VERY treatable, so check out this video to learn more! โถ๏ธ

Temporomandibular Disorder (TMD) is a term used to describe a group of problems that cause pain in the jaw and temporomandibular joint (also called the TMJ). Up to 25% of the population will suffer from TMD symptoms. Imbalances between the muscles that open and close your jaw are the most common culprit.
Recently, TMD researchers found that the problem might not be isolated to the jaw:๏ฟฝ โTMD patients have a higher risk of migraine, and providers can decrease the risk of migraine in TMD patients by managing TMD properly.โ

When we injure ourselves or create stress in the body, our system releases inflammatory chemicals that are initially helpful, but ultimately, need to be eliminated from the body in order for it to heal properly.
A couple of ways these toxins are removed from the body are through sweat and urine. So, if you are not consuming enough water throughout the day your body can't process and remove toxins which will lead to longer healing times and a compromised immune system.

When we injure ourselves or create stress in the body, our system releases inflammatory chemicals that are initially helpful, but ultimately, need to be eliminated from the body in order for it to heal properly.
A couple of ways these toxins are removed from the body are through sweat and urine. So, if you are not consuming enough water throughout the day your body can't process and remove toxins which will lead to longer healing times and a compromised immune system. Hereโs an infographic for key ways to stay hydrated!๐

A new study found that people who run and cycle have less low back pain! If you decide to try out cycling, here are some tips to keep injury-free:
โ๏ธ Choose the right-size bike โ Straddling a proper-sized bike will leave approximately 1" clearance between your groin and the top of the frame.
โ๏ธ Adjust the saddle so that in the bottom pedal position, there is approximately a 10-degree bend in your knee
โ๏ธ Your stem height should be somewhere between parallel and 1" lower than the top of your saddle.
โ๏ธ Padded bicycle shorts can help with comfort on long rides
โ๏ธ Wearing cycling gloves helps to relieve hand pressure
โ๏ธ Choose sunglasses with UV protection
โ๏ธ ALWAYS wear a helmet
