When I’m not in the office my other job is “Mom”, so I try to make the most of the 2 days I’m treating patients. Busy and well rounded has always been the goal in practice and that’s exactly what we do! 💙

Here’s a quick rundown of some things I treated this week!

• Neck pain w/ numbness and tingling into fingers
• Pre and post tongue tie revision body work
• Stiff low back
• Wellness/ maintenance care
• Prenatal care for a mama 7 weeks away from meeting baby
• Arthritic ankle pain
• Head asymmetry on a sweet little baby
• Recurring migraines

Most people think chiropractic care is just for “neck and back pain.”

It’s not.

Chiropractic focuses on how well your spine and nervous system are functioning. Your brain communicates with every muscle, organ, and tissue in your body through nerves that exit the spine. When joints in the spine don’t move properly (joint dysfunction), it can create irritation, inflammation, and altered nerve signaling.

That’s where we come in.

Through specific, targeted adjustments, we restore proper motion to restricted joints. This:

• Reduces pain and muscle tension
• Improves mobility and range of motion
• Decreases inflammation
• Enhances nervous system function
• Helps your body heal and regulate itself more efficiently

But it’s not just about pain relief.

We regularly see patients with:
✔ Headaches and migraines
✔ TMJ dysfunction
✔ Sciatica
✔ Disc issues
✔ Shoulder and hip pain
✔ Postural problems
✔ Sports injuries

And yes — we also care for:

👶 Pediatric patients
🤰 Pregnant mothers

For kids, adjustments are gentle and specific, often helping with posture, colic, sports injuries, and general nervous system development.

For expecting moms, chiropractic care can reduce low back and pelvic pain, improve mobility, and support more comfortable pregnancies.

Chiropractic care is about optimizing function — not masking symptoms.

If you’re tired of temporary fixes and want to address the root cause, we’d love to help.

Your body was designed to heal. Sometimes it just needs the right stimulus. Call us today at 501-575-0271 or feel free to book online at www.elitespineandjoint.com

Today’s educational post is inspired by what we’ve been seeing frequently in the office lately. 🤓

Femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) syndrome is a mechanical hip disorder where abnormal contact occurs between the femoral head/neck and the acetabular rim. Over time, that repeated collision irritates the labrum, joint capsule, and surrounding soft tissues, driving pain and functional limitation — especially in active adults.

Common symptoms of FAI:
• Deep anterior hip or groin pain (often described as a “C-shaped” ache)
• Pain with sitting, squatting, lunging, or getting out of a car
• Hip stiffness or reduced range of motion
• Catching, clicking, or locking sensations
• Pain after athletic activity or prolonged sitting
• Decreased power or confidence in the hip during movement

FAI is not just a bone problem — the soft tissue inflammation and tendon overload around the joint are a big contributor to symptoms. That’s where shockwave therapy becomes clinically useful.

How shockwave therapy helps:

Extracorporeal shockwave therapy (ESWT) delivers focused acoustic energy into irritated tissue around the hip. The goal isn’t to “break” anything — it’s to stimulate a controlled healing response. In FAI cases, shockwave therapy can:
• Increase local blood flow to chronically irritated tissue
• Stimulate cellular repair and collagen remodeling
• Reduce pain signaling via neuromodulation
• Break up degenerative tissue patterns
• Accelerate resolution of tendinopathy around the hip flexors and deep rotators
• Improve tissue tolerance so rehab exercises are more effective

When paired with corrective mobility work and strength-based rehabilitation, shockwave therapy can significantly shorten recovery timelines. It addresses the inflammatory and degenerative soft tissue component while rehab corrects the underlying biomechanics.

The combination allows patients to move with less pain, restore hip function, and return to activity without relying solely on injections or surgery. We have seen several cases of this that have truly benefited so much from shockwave, it really does make a difference!

I sometimes joke that if I could rename our clinic, it would be the “Headache & TMJ Clinic.”

Why? Because headaches, migraines, and TMJ disorders are some of the conditions we see and treat with tremendous success every week.

Many people still think of chiropractic as “neck and back only,” but the reality is we diagnose and treat so much more than that. Jaw pain, facial tension, chronic headaches, dizziness, posture-related issues, and nerve-related symptoms are all part of what we do.

If you have been living with headaches or TMJ symptoms and assumed chiropractic was not an option, it may be time to think differently. We would love to help.
