Stretches for Runners

Stretches for Runners Fall marathon season is just around the corner!  Many runners love to get out and run but often forget to take the time afterward to stretch it all out. Stretching is most recommended for after a workout.  Stretching before a workout can lead to decreased strength ability of a muscle – which can lead to injury. Save a warm up for before the exercise to get all muscles ready and save the stretching for after the activity.

What is Chiropractic?

What is Chiropractic? The brain is the master control system for the entire body. It sends and receives all of the signals within the body to dictate every single function of the body!  From waving your hand at a friend to say hi, to sending a text message, to washing our faces before bed…. and these are just the actions we consciously think about doing…. how about all the beautiful things are body is doing without thinking about it….  digesting our food, breathing, sending blood to all of our organs, making babies!! When there is interference to this neurological mastermind -> proper function of all of these processes is interfered with. WHAT CAUSES INTERFERENCE?  There are all sorts of different stresses that cause this interference…. best described by breaking it down into 3 categories PHYSICAL STRESS : trauma, poor posture, sports injury, texting too much CHEMICAL STRESS: poor diet, tobacco, increased alcohol consumption, lack of vitamins EMOTIONAL STRESS: marriage trouble, work stress, death of a friend or family member   You ask… WHAT CAN I DO?  Chiropractic adjustments have been shown to normalize these nerve processes to their proper resting tone. This is like hitting the reset button on the computer when it is malfunctioning. The computer is allowed to pause and reprocess itself. Chiropractic adjustments stop the stress response and restore normal hormonal and cardiovascular function to the body.    

Chiropractic = Good Posture = Healthy

I love this picture and blurb out of Harvard. I have this conversation in the office with people all the time. Your spinal cord, the communication of information between the brain and the rest of the body, runs through your spine. When it is in a poor position it means your nervous system is in a poor position…. which means your body functions poorly. Seeking healthy? Seek a healthy spine! #healthyspine #healthylife

The physical examination

physical examination

Physical Examination The physical examination will follow the history taking. The point of the exam is to determine which structures and tissues are affected in each case. The physical examination involves the use of a variety of testing techniques. Range of motion, posture assessment, joint mobility, orthopedic tests, reflex testing, sensory testing and strength tests are all commonly used when examining the parts of the body experiencing pain and restriction. Sometimes the doctor will require additional tests, such as x-rays, or referral for medical examination.
