Iliotibial Band Syndrome (ITBS) is common among runners and cyclists, but anyone can experience symptoms. The main symptom is pain between the hip and knee (where the IT band runs) that worsens with activity. Often times a tenderness when pressing on the outer part of the knee can be also be a symptom of ITBS.

Shockwave therapy is an alternative option when dealing with ITBS, as are acupuncture or manual muscle therapies. Shockwave therapy will help heal and regenerate the tissue and promote long term healing.

~Stress~

When we are stressed we have a tendency to tense up our muscles, typically in our upper back and neck.

Regular visits to your chiropractor can help ease tension stored in the body, relieve the symptoms of stress and the damage it can do on your body. Also, when the spine is aligned, the central nervous system is unblocked and can function effectively. 😊

❕ Foam Rolling ❕

Some great benefits of foam rolling include:
☑ Muscle recovery
☑ Help ease muscle soreness and pain
☑ Increased range of motion
☑ Reduced muscle inflammation
☑ Muscle relaxation
☑ Increase in blood flow to muscles
☑Muscle warm up and cool down with workouts

Foam rolling is a myo-fascial release technique. Foam rolling can be done a couple times a week, or even everyday. Foam rolling does not take a lot of time, as if you are focusing on one muscle area, it only takes 1-2 minutes. If you have never used a foam roller before, it may be best to start with a lighter and softer foam roller. Certain muscles may be tighter than others and have more tension, so it is best to adjust the pressure you put on your muscles accordingly. If you have any health or medical concerns, consult your doctor before foam rolling.

Common areas to foam roll include:
➡ Hamstrings
➡ Quads
➡ Calves
➡ Back

‼️One very common cause of headaches is muscle tension in the upper back and neck. Tension headaches are a result of the muscle contraction in the head and neck.

➡Some symptoms include: dull aching pain in the head, sensations of pressure and tightness across your forehead, sides of head, back of head or behind the eyes, and tenderness and tightness in the neck and shoulder muscles.

➡ Most commonly tension headaches occur 2-3x/month and can last 30 minutes to a week. They are considered chronic if they occur for more than 15 days a month for at least 3 months.

❓ Tension headache or migraine?
At times, they are hard to distinguish because they have similar symptoms. Typically a migraine will have more visual disturbances and nausea- more neurological symptoms.

❓ How does acupuncture help?
Acupuncture can help relieve pain, targets specific muscles to help relax, and sooth the body's response to stress- a main cause of tension headaches.

Adjustments for little ones are safe, gentle, and can really help in many ways! A chiropractor aligns your child’s spine, which allows their bodies to function at it’s best.

This can be especially important when babies are hitting milestones in gross motor development. Adjustments can help identify and/or prevent issues that may arise in the body as they continue to move and grow. By gently aligning the spine, their nervous system can communicate to the rest of the body more efficiently.

An example is when a baby begins to walk; making sure the spine and the muscles involved are all able to do their jobs is a big deal, this is a big milestone! Falling from learning all of these things can also cause trauma to the body that should be addressed.

You won't have to worry about getting care that is perfectly suited for your child's age, health factors, and personal needs. Dr. Kristin Hess is an active member of the International Chiropractic Pediatric Association and has advanced training in pediatric care. With all of the changes that happen during pregnancy, proper chiropractic care is even more important for women during this time. Fortunately, Dr. Kristin Hess is a member of the International Chiropractic Pediatric Association, is Webster certified and also has advanced training in pediatric and prenatal care. Acupuncture is Chinese medicine that has been practiced for over 5000 years. Simply, acupuncture is the insertion of fine needles into specific points on the body's surface in order to control function of the body. It is based on the theory that energy known as Qi (pronounced chee) flows along channels, or pathways throughout the body. Because Qi controls one's emotional, physical and mental aspects of life, when it is hindered or unbalanced, one's health may be affected.
