Expectations of Pain / An utterly confusing relationship.
Expectations of Pain / An utterly confusing relationship.

As a Chiropractor, we work within the realm of helping individuals not only get out of pain but avoid it by increasing their performance capacity as well. It’s been through these experiences of helping people that I’ve been able to gain the importance of these values and lessons which are worth sharing and elaborating on.
As patients not only are you expected to do "exercises" you are also expected to allot time for walks in nature, meditate, journal, sleep 8-9 hours, eat 10 servings of vegetables - oh and still show up for work on time after getting kids ready for school...before picking them up and making sure their homework is done, they aren't getting too much screen time, dinner is something everyone can enjoy and that they actually shower before bed

We usually think that we exercise or work out to build muscle, but that's dead wrong. Our activity and performance actually strains the tissue and stresses the body. So how do we get bigger, stronger, faster?! RECOVERY.

It is impossible to increase athletic or daily performance without adequate recovery. For the most simple analogy, think about how your energy levels are after a 5-day stint of less than ideal sleep patterns. Yeah, you're dragging it, right?

Use of Resistance Bands for Workouts and Rehab

Resistance Bands are a great tool not only clinically, but for your at-home use as well!

When you come into our office, you will see some bands hanging up on the walls and, if your system’s needs calls for them, you will be using them quite a bit. So let’s get acquainted with the benefits of bands.

"I don't believe in Chiropractic.." // Frequently Asked Question (or statement in this case!)
"I don't believe in Chiropractic.." // Frequently Asked Question (or statement in this case!)

We hear this all the time! And from both sides - those who ‘believe’ and those who don’t!

First of all, Chiropractic isn’t a religion or a faith - it’s not based off of a ‘belief’ system. Rather, the profession is described as a ‘science and an art.’ A form of medicine that is drug free and non-invasive for common musculoskeletal issues like joint pain, headaches, and overall discomfort that everyone experiences at some point in their life.

With that being said I’d rather have you understand Chiropractic compared to "‘believe in it.’
