Sometimes the area of complaint can be inflamed/painful, but working through and getting that adjustment just takes baby steps and some good old bravery ☺️

Pain is our bodies way of bringing attention to an area and often times is a protective mechanism! The brain can turn the volume up or down on that signal depending on various stressors/variables around us. Pain doesn’t always equal tissue damage 💥

The brain is truly a remarkable structure 🧠

There are many different ways to mobilize joints! If a patient has difficulty or pain being facedown often times a chiropractor can modify the adjustment to the patient’s liking.

This technique helps to mobilize the thoracic spine (midback) by doctor placing their hand behind the patients back and using the arms to render enough tension to then be able to use gravity and swift motion to achieve the adjustment ✨

Being able to adapt and modify to patient comfort is so important as we serve our patient population ☺️

It’s not just manipulation over here 😉

The chiropractic adjustment is valuable but when you add soft tissue work, therapeutic exercise and time for educational training it makes for a more effective treatment results✨

Let me encourage you to go on a walk today!

I’ve been incorporating more weighted vest walks into my movement routine and I’ve been loving it. Especially during the warmer months when the sun is shining and nature is abounding!

If you struggle to get movement or resistance training (which are integral to your health) into your daily routine then weighted vest walks can be a great place to start ✨

This is an especially important message to the ladies out there who are closer to menopause and run the risk of osteoporosis. Strength training helps to maintain/strengthen bones which tend to become osteoporotic as we age and undergo menopause 🦴

Muscle is protective and is truly one of the best ways to ensure that we prioritize logenvity and living at our highest potential as we age ☺️

Happy walking, let’s get after it 💪🏼
