Is Your Body A Sink Hole?
I’m sure by now we’ve all heard and/or have seen the great sinkhole of I-93 north, in Concord. I did not see the hole in person, but the pictures were absolutely stunning. To imagine that the road was normal in appearance and in a matter of minutes it underwent dramatic changes is startling. It was…

Subluxation Filled Summer?
There is no season in which I am more thankful for my chiropractic adjustments than summer! Our warm season passes way too quickly here in New Hampshire and so I feel obligated to pack in every activity possible. I’ll readily admit that some of these aren’t the most spine-friendly. From tubing on Lake Winnipesaukee (read…

Unlimited Possibilities
“To see the world in a grain of sand, And Heaven in a wildflower To hold infinity in the palm of your hand, and eternity in an hour” -William Blake I love these poetic words…something about it strikes a deep chord within me. Maybe it’s the idea that potentially everything exists within everything else–that one…

Sometimes You Just Say Yes

Structure Dictates Function
During the history taking aspect of a patient’s initial exam we like to discuss past traumas that patients may have encountered in their life time up until that very day. Often people overlook or forget traumas that they may have withstood. I like to remind patients that they are in the same bodies they have…

Take Three More Steps Before You Quit
Recently, while I was struggling through a particularly long uphill portion of a run during a very humid,muggy morning I was reminded of this advice: “Just take three more steps at the top before rest, trust me”. This advice was given to me many moons ago when I was a competitive long distance runner in…

Fourth of July
The Fourth of July is quickly approaching. Everyone, obviously, thinks of fireworks, parades, and grills. These are all well and good, but that’s not what makes July 4th wonderful. This is a great holiday, because I truly believe that we live in the best country in the world. We enjoy freedom that isn’t available in…

How Amazing Are We?
Have you ever really, truly stopped to ponder how amazing our bodies really are? I know you’ve heard us say it quite a bit, but truthfully, each of us is a miracle when you think of it. Our bodies perform millions, no, trillions of functions every minute without us ever having to think about it.…
