Chiropractic for Kids

Chiropractic treatment is not just for those who experience back or neck injuries or just for those who are advanced in age looking to optimize their body’s functionality. Young folks and children especially have a multitude of benefits to gain from seeking out chiropractic treatment, whether experiencing pain or not.

Below, Family Chiropractic & Spinal Health Care Center goes over a few ways that our treatments benefit kids of all ages.

Growing Pain Relief

As kids grow they experience what we casually call “growing pains.” Kids’ bodies change over time, sometimes rapidly, which can cause discomfort. Chiropractic adjustments will help loosen up the joints and treat any displaced muscle, providing drug-free pain relief in the process.

Boost Cognitive Function

Chiropractic treatments have been shown to help boost brain activity. The spine is inextricably connected to your brain, communication channels to which can become disrupted due to spine misalignment. Chiropractic treatments have been shown to help boost mental clarity and focus, not to mention reduce depression and anxiety.

Enhance Sleep

Chiropractic adjustments have been shown to promote a healthy night of sleep and even help patients who experience insomnia.

Tips for Back and Neck Pain Relief

It doesn’t matter if you’re a seasoned athlete, a high-powered corporate exec, or a server at a high-volume upscale restaurant, your body is going to go through wear and tear that might result in everyday pain.

Common areas for pain include your back, neck, spine, legs, and joints — all of which can benefit from chiropractic treatment.

Below, Family Chiropractic & Spinal Health Care Center goes over a few tips for back pain relief.

Build Your Back, Neck, and Core Muscle Groups

Pretty much the least fun muscles to work — your legs, core, neck, and back — are the most important to work. Make sure your fitness routine includes plenty of exercises that strengthen these key areas of the body.

Stretch/Yoga

Stretching, and, particularly yoga, both offer immense benefits when it comes to relieving tension and easing pain in the body.

Mindfulness/Breathing Exercises

Meditation, mindfulness exercises, and breathing exercises have all been shown to inspire your body’s natural pain relief capabilities.

Chiropractic treatments are also a great option for drug-free pain relief. Family Chiropractic & Spinal Health Care Center to schedule your consultation today!

Chiropractic for the Executive

Being an executive and having a hand in the day-to-day operations, not to mention having a huge say in the overall direction of your company short and long term, can bring about a lot of stress, plain and simple. Turns out, chiropractic treatments are actually an amazing countermeasure you can take against the wear and tear your body and brain experience from living the high-paced corporate lifestyle.

Below are a few problems the executive might experience and a few ways that chiropractic benefits business professionals at all stages of the game.

Daily Stress

You might have stress and anxieties that arise from your job, in which cases chiropractic treatment is an amazing, drug free solution that aligns your body, bolsters your internal systems (like your GI tract, immune system, and central nervous system), and has been shown to reduce anxiety, depression, and give you a better night of sleep.

Recovering from a Day or Week of Work

How do you recover from a stressful day or week at work? If you just go out for drinks with coworkers, this might not be getting you the best results and teeing yourself up to succeed tomorrow. Instead, do yoga, or visit your local chiropractor. Chiropractic treatments have been shown to boost energy and help the body recover properly from overuse at work.

What’s Your Wellness Plan?

As a high-powered executive, you have to take care of yourself and your company in equal measure. Have a plan for your health and wellness and stick to it. Make chiropractic treatments a part of your overall health and wellness plan with Family Chiropractic & Spinal Health Care Center today.

Common Everyday Contributors to Neck Pain

Most of us know that neck pain can certainly result from a one-time injury, but neck pain is most commonly the result of the routines we live out each day. Everyday wear and tear is a huge factor in neck and back pain — it’s no wonder.

Below, Family Chiropractic & Spinal Health Care Center goes over a few common contributors that might be causing your neck pain.

Using Your Phone Too Much

When we look at our phones, most of us hold it on our near our laps with our necks craned downward, which is a horrible position for our neck. Looking at your phone less and trying to hold it more at eye level (as awkward as that sounds) is a good way to counteract this trend.

Tension/Anxiety

Tension and anxiety can get you all jammed up in more ways than one, resulting in physical discomfort, like neck pain, back pain, and headaches.

Too Much Time in the Car

Our cars are pivotal in getting us around, but many aren’t designed with our neck, spine, and back in mind. Too many hours each week in the car can certainly cause neck and back pain.

Chiropractic treatment is a great way to deal with neck pain, tension, joint pain, back pain, headaches, insomnia, and more. Contact Family Chiropractic & Spinal Health Care Center today to schedule your consultation for drug-free pain relief.
