Good habits begin in childhood. Whether that pertains to nutrition, health, or taking care of your body by consulting a chiropractor. In honor of National Family Health and Fitness day, we encourage everyone to set aside some quality time to spend with their children. Play a game of “Marco Polo” in the pool. Go for a family bike ride. Start an impromptu pick-up basketball game. Whatever activity tickles your fancy, go for it!
Chiropractic likes to look at the full picture of health, not only the troubling symptoms that are glaringly obvious. We understand that it encompasses the whole lifestyle and masking symptoms with medicine would be doing our patients a disservice.
We will be here to care for you and your whole family when you need a holistic, drug-free alternative to western medicine.
Chiropractic aims to improve your life in a natural, drug-free way. As such, we take great pleasure in informing our patients about theories that fall into our ideology. If you’ve been sleeping on the Blue Zone knowledge, we’ve got you covered.
There are five “Blue Zones” around the world. They are located in Okinawa (Japan), Sardinia (Italy), Nicoya (Costa Rica), Icaria (Greece), and Loma Linda (California) with the Seventh Day Adventists. The theory posits that due to similar lifestyles, these areas have a higher than average rate of people who live to 100! So, what is the secret?
• Family first
• Low rate of smoking
• Diet is mainly plant-based
• Constant moderate physical activity
• Strong social ties within their community
• Consumption of legumes
Did you know that the first chiropractic adjustment was given on September 18th 1895? Daniel David Palmer is the founder of chiropractic. And the lucky recipient was a janitor who had been deaf for the past 17 years after feeling something “give” in his back. Palmer proceeded to examine the area and gave a primitive adjustment. He had felt what appeared to be an out of place vertebrae in the janitors upper back. The janitor noticed an improvement in his hearing shortly after!
Over time, our shoulders can move out of alignment, which leads to many issues, like inflammation, pain, and muscle spasms. Luckily, gentle chiropractic adjustments to your shoulders can help restore normal alignment. Our chiropractor can also adjust your upper back and neck to provide further relief from shoulder pain.
The top health benefits of chiropractic care include:
• Reduced inflammation
• Decreased pain
• Improved flexibility
• Increased range of motion
• Improved muscle strength and tone
These benefits can not only provide you with short-term relief but can also help you prevent further damage to your shoulders and the surrounding areas. SO, if you have been dealing with shoulder pain and it has been interfering with your ability to live everyday life, contact us today to schedule your appointment!

It's World Spine Day! This year's theme is "back on track." It's no secret that many of us are still feeling out of wack with everything going on. Coronavirus interrupted many of our daily routines and we had to adapt to what appears to be the new normal. 2020's #backontrack theme is here to promote how resilient and adaptive we all are. Despite current events, we are all trying to do our best and maintain our health.
To observe World Spine Day, we recommend challenging yourself to some spine-friendly bodyweight exercise. A strong core helps support your spine, while bodyweight exercises are an easy way to get some exercise during this pandemic. Try to hold a plank for 30 seconds!

Occasionally your spinal column becomes unbalanced. When this occurs, it may put stress on your bones, spinal cord, brain, and other nerves and cause pain, fatigue, weakness, and dis-ease (loss of health or wholeness.) An experienced chiropractor can locate this unbalance (called the vertebral subluxation complex) and gently realign your spinal column to remove stress from your nerves and bones, thus helping restore health and wholeness to your body.
Come in periodically to have your spinal balance checked. Your body will thank you for it 🙏
🎅🎄🎁 May the Christmas season fill your home with joy, your heart with love, and your life with laughter.
Wishing you a very Merry Christmas, and we look forward to seeing you soon.
Adjustments help prevent or reduce the wear and tear that our joints and ligaments are exposed to every day. Why would that be so? When our spine is in a proper functional position, the joints and ligaments operate as designed with fluid motion. However, if a joint of the body is not properly positioned, that joint will not work smoothly. Over time, this wear and tear causes osteoarthritis.
Visit us regularly to maintain the health of your spine and overall well-being.
May 2021 bring you all of your wishes in joy and prosperity!

Manual manipulation of the spine and other joints in the body have been around for a long time. Ancient writings from China and Greece dating between 2700 B.C. and 1500 B.C. mention spinal manipulation and the lower extremities' maneuvering to ease low back pain. Hippocrates, the famous Greek physician who lived from 460 to 357 B.C., published a text detailing the importance of manual manipulation. In one of his writings, he declares, "Get knowledge of the spine, for this is the requisite for many diseases." Evidence of manual manipulation of the body has been found among the ancient civilizations of Egypt, Babylon, Syria, Japan, the Incas, Mayans, and Native Americans.
The official beginning of the chiropractic profession dates back to 1895 when Daniel David Palmer restored the hearing of Harvey Lillard by manually adjusting his neck, and something told him that he was on to something good. In 1897, Dr. Palmer went on to begin the Palmer School of Chiropractic in Davenport, Iowa, which continues to train doctors of chiropractic to this day.
A healthy diet - consistently eating balanced, nutritious meals with plenty of fresh fruit and vegetables during the day - is vital. Regular vigorous exercise - three to five times per week for at least 30 minutes a session - is another essential component. Getting sufficient rest, more often than not, is another critical piece of the health puzzle. If you're doing all these things, you're doing a lot.
When you add regular chiropractic care to your weekly schedule, you're substantially enhancing the value of all your other health activities that result in lifetime health.

Throughout the twentieth century, the profession of chiropractic has gained considerable recognition and scientific support. Research studies have demonstrated the value of chiropractic care in reducing health care costs, improving recovery rates, and increasing patient satisfaction.
One extensive study conducted in Canada, the 1993 Manga Study, concluded that chiropractic care would save hundreds of millions of dollars annually in work disability payments and direct health care costs. Several major studies conducted by the U.S. Government, the Rand Corporation and others, have all demonstrated the incredible value of chiropractic care.
