💀Herniated Henry’s Weekly Wellness Tip! 💀

START YOUR DAY WITH A STRETCH!

Even Henry knows you shouldn’t jump out of bed and immediately start moving like you’re ready for a fitness competition! 😂

After a night of sleeping, your muscles and joints can feel stiff, especially with these cooler nights and mornings! A few minutes of gentle stretching in the morning can help:

-Get your body moving

-Loosen up tight muscles

-Improve flexibility

-Get your joints moving through a comfortable range of motion

-Start your day feeling more mobile

Henry’s Morning Stretch Routine:

To start, these moves can be done while still in bed!

🟠 Knees-to-Chest: Lie on your back and gently hug one or both knees toward your chest for 15 to 30 seconds to loosen your lower back and hips.

🟠 Pelvic Tilts: Lie with your knees bent and feet flat, then slowly flatten your lower back against the bed, hold for two seconds, and release.

🟠 Supine Spinal Twist: Lie on your back with your knees bent and gently drop them from side to side to release tension in your mid and lower back.

🟠 Ankle and Toe Pumps: Point and flex your toes and rotate your ankles to stimulate blood flow and wake up your lower legs.

When you are ready to get out of bed, try these:

🟠 Neck stretches — Gently tilt your head side to side. No cranking or pulling!

🟠 Shoulder rolls — Roll those shoulders forward and backward to get things moving.

🟠 Cat-Cow — Get on your hands and knees, then slowly alternate between rounding your spine upward and arching it downward.

🟠 Standing side stretch — Reach overhead and gently lean from side to side.

🟠 Hamstring stretch — Keep a slight bend in your knee and gently reach toward your toes.

🟠 Hip flexor stretch — Take a comfortable lunge position and gently shift your hips forward.

🟠 Downward-Facing Dog: Lift your hips toward the ceiling in an inverted V-shape to decompress your spine and stretch your entire backside.

🦴 Henry’s rule: Stretch gently, breathe, and never force a movement into pain!

And remember, staying active throughout the day is just as important as your morning stretch. Henry doesn't sit around waiting for his joints to get stiff—and neither should you! 😉

💀🏋️‍♂️ MEET HERNIATED HENRY! 🏋️‍♂️💀

We’ve got a BIG new addition to the office… and he’s already making himself at home!

Standing at a whopping 12 feet tall, please welcome Herniated Henry — our resident fitness fanatic, gym bro, and self-proclaimed expert in everything from deadlifts to protein shakes. 😂
Henry LOVES to work out.
Squats? ✔️
Deadlifts? ✔️
Bench press? ✔️
Leg day? Never skipped. 💪

But Henry learned something along the way…
Being strong isn’t just about how much you can lift. It’s about being able to move well, recover well, and keep doing the things you love.
That’s why Henry makes regular chiropractic care part of his routine. 💀🦴
He knows that keeping his spine and joints moving well helps him stay ready for whatever workout comes next — whether that’s crushing leg day, chasing PRs, or showing off his impressive 12-foot frame around the office.
His philosophy?
“Train hard. Recover smart. Keep moving."

Of course, Henry still has a few bad habits…
He thinks stretching counts as a warm-up.
He occasionally skips mobility work.
And he is WAY too confident about his deadlift form. 😂
So you’ll probably see us keeping an eye on him.
After all, even a skeleton needs a little maintenance! 🦴
For the foreseeable future, Henry will be hanging around the office, getting into some trouble, sharing his questionable fitness wisdom, and reminding us that taking care of your body shouldn’t stop when you leave the gym.
So stop by and say hello to our newest team member!
Welcome to the office, Herniated Henry! 💀💪
Just remember…
He may be 12 feet tall, but he still needs an adjustment. 😉
