Hand pain, numbness, or tingling during pregnancy? 🤰🖐️ You’re not alone; Carpal tunnel is very common in the third trimester.

A new study found that both rigid and elastic wrist splints can reduce pain and swelling, as well as improve grip strength. Neither one is “better,” so you can simply choose the option that feels most comfortable for you. 💛

If wrist or hand discomfort is interfering with your daily routine, we can help you find the right support and relief.

You’ve probably heard of the sciatic nerve… but have you ever heard of the cluneal nerves? 🤔

These small nerves located near the back of your pelvis can become irritated, causing low back pain that mimics other conditions, which is why cluneal nerve pain often gets overlooked.

This is why a thorough exam matters. Not all low back pain comes from the same source, and finding the true cause leads to the most effective treatment. ✔️

Accurate diagnosis means better results, and better results mean getting back to moving and feeling your best. 🙌

If your low back pain has been persistent, we’re here to help identify the cause.

🔥 Ready to Kickstart Your Weight Loss This Year? 🔥

Right after the holidays is one of the best times to start a weight-loss journey. Why? Because the holidays often leave our metabolism a little out of rhythm — blood sugar swings 🍬, inflammation 😣, disrupted sleep 😴, and detox pathways that get overloaded. All of this tells the body to hold on to weight.

That’s exactly where the Metagenics Clear Change Program makes such a big difference. 💚

This isn’t a diet — it’s a 10-day, clinical-grade metabolic reset designed to clear the bottlenecks that slow your metabolism down.
✨ Supports liver detox pathways
✨ Calms inflammation
✨ Improves insulin sensitivity
✨ Gives your mitochondria a boost to burn fuel efficiently
✨ Helps your body shift from “store” ➜ “release” mode

Whether your goal is 10 pounds or 100 pounds, this program lays the foundation for sustainable, healthy weight loss — not the frustrating up-and-down cycle.

Most people notice:
⚡ Steadier energy
🔥 Fewer cravings
🌿 Better digestion
✨ And that feeling that their body is finally “turning back on”

If you’re ready to start your weight-loss journey with momentum — not burnout — the Clear Change Program is a powerful place to begin.

Reach out or stop by the office, and we can even drop-ship your 10-day kit right to your door 🚚📦

Here’s to living your best life this year — we’re here to help you get there! 🙌✨

Pain keeping you up at night? 😫🌙

A new study found that people with chronic pain are 85% more likely to have sleep disorders than those with shorter-term pain. And when pain worsens during the day, doesn’t ease with movement, appears at rest, or wakes you from sleep, the risk increases even further.

Pain isn’t just a daytime problem; it can disrupt your nights, too. Poor sleep can exacerbate pain even further.

If you’re stuck in this cycle, we can help you address both pain and sleep together. Check out this infographic for simple sleep tips to get started. https://bit.ly/3zTXvVS

Want to lower your risk of a lower-body injury? 🦵⚡

Start by taking care of your lower back. When your back is irritated, your body often compensates by putting extra stress on your hips, knees, or ankles. Research shows that people with low back pain have a higher risk of developing leg and lower-body injuries.

If that nagging low back ache keeps coming and going, now’s the perfect time to address it.
Your back will feel better, your movement will feel smoother, and your legs will thank you. 🙌

Let us help you get started!

Pain on the outside of your knee? 🦵

You may be dealing with iliotibial (IT) band syndrome. This issue causes sharp or achy pain on the outer aspect of the knee, particularly in runners and other active individuals.

The good news is that it’s very treatable. Most runners return to training quickly with a combination of myofascial release and hip-strengthening exercises to help the leg better handle load. 🙌

Don’t let knee pain slow your momentum. Visit our clinic and let us help you get back on track. Your IT band may be irritated, but your goals don’t have to be. 💪

Did you know jaw issues and ringing in the ear (tinnitus) often go hand-in-hand? 😣👂

A new review found that more than half of people with jaw pain also experienced tinnitus, and nearly everyone with tinnitus showed signs of jaw pain. The connection is stronger than most people realize.

If you’ve been dealing with ear ringing or jaw discomfort, they may be related. Getting both checked can help you find the right treatment path.

Schedule an appointment and let us help you sort out what’s going on. Relief is possible. 💙

Did you know that your lower back could be the cause of your knee pain? 🦵

Recent research suggests that adjusting the lower back can enhance quadriceps strength in individuals with “patellofemoral” pain, a common knee condition characterized by pain located at the front of the knee. Stronger quads mean more support and happier knees! 🙌

The body is more connected than it seems. If your knee has been bothering you, we can help with personalized care, targeted exercises, and gentle adjustments to get you moving comfortably again. 💪✨

Do you struggle with vertigo or dizziness? 😵‍💫

A new study found that testing for BPPV, the most common cause of positional vertigo, is more likely to be positive in the morning than later in the day.

It explains why symptoms sometimes disappear just as you arrive at your appointment.

For the most accurate “dizziness diagnosis”, a morning visit may provide the best opportunity to pinpoint the cause. And if you’ve been feeling off-balance, we’re here to help you get steady again.

Staying steady on your feet matters especially as we age! 👣🧓

Balance, confidence, and strength naturally change over time, and those shifts can increase the risk of future falls. Research shows that adults dealing with ongoing pain or stiffness are more likely to experience balance issues and feel limited in daily activities.

The good news? Small, consistent habits can make a big difference. 💪✨
