So What’s The Problem?
Sometimes I’m asked a very common question when dealing with spinal problems: is the issue a bone problem or a muscle problem? The answer can be both or neither. But it’s not really ever one or the other. You see the muscles attach to the bones (thus having the ability to move the bone). So if the muscle…

Supporting Your Adjustments
Chiropractic adjustments restore balance to your nervous system and improve the structural integrity of your spine and joints. One major key to healing is consistency in the rhythm of your adjustments.

Take Time
Vacation season is upon us. Sunny days and traffic jams are here. I took a vacation last month. Well, not a vacation, but a “stay-cation”, as some call it. I typically take two weeks off a year, one around Christmas and one in the summer. We decided to stay local, because 1) we had family…

August Practice Member(s) of the Month

Honor The Freedom
Fourth of July weekend is upon us. Everyone, obviously, thinks of fireworks, cook outs, and this year a Monday off of work. While these things are great, they are not what makes the July 4th wonderful. This is a great holiday, because I truly believe that we live in the best country in the world. It’s important…

Are You Passing on Your Spine to your Children?
When taking a new patient case history, I often hear, “My mother had arthritis in her spine,” or “My father always had back pain.” Many practice members start chiropractic care because they don’t want to age the same way their parents did. They wonder whether or not they inherited their back problems from their parents,…
