Did you know the average American takes 3,000 to 4,000 steps daily – approximately 1.5-2 miles?

While many organizations suggest taking 10,000 steps a day, the idea first emerged as a marketing tactic by a Japanese company in 1965 and wasn’t backed by science. Although it’s a good goal to aim for, and research now suggests that the more steps we take each day, the better it is for our well-being, no magic number works for everyone as certain factors such as age, health, or physical ability play a role. Yet, the average American falls below the 10,000 steps benchmark. So, what can you do to improve your step volume? Here are some suggestions: https://time.com/6246812/how-to-walk-10000-steps-a-day/

Sprains and strains are two of the most common injuries to soft tissues. Although they share nearly identical symptoms, such as pain, loss of range of motion, and swelling, they are different, and distinguishing a sprain from a strain can be tricky.

The main difference between the two injuries is that a sprain involves an injury to a ligament, while a strain is an injury to the muscle or tendons. It may not be immediately obvious to differentiate between the two, but typically bruising around the affected joint will be presented with a sprain, as with a strain, spasms will occur to the affected muscle.

If you have recently sustained a sprain or strain or believe you may have, call us to schedule a consultation today. Through a thorough assessment, our chiropractors can help determine the best source of treatment for your needs.

The use of prescription pain medications for chronic pain, such as back or neck pain, has led many people into opioid addiction. That’s why finding safer, natural pain relief alternatives are more vital than ever. With approximately 35 million Americans being treated through chiropractic treatments, many are taking control of their health. This ever-increasing popular alternative treatment is a non-invasive, drug-free approach that can help treat various issues, including low back pain, neck pain, whiplash, joint pain, headaches, sciatica, and more. While spinal manipulation is the centerpiece of chiropractic treatment, chiropractic care has expanded to include other diagnostic and therapies in their toolbox.

For questions about chiropractic care or to schedule an appointment, call us today.

Millions of people struggle with a body-wide pain condition known as fibromyalgia. Characterized by pain in multiple tender points, particularly in the neck, back, shoulder, elbow, knee, and hip, the intense pain can make daily life difficult. Fatigue, headaches, poor sleep quality, cognitive problems, and irritable bowel syndrome typically accompany this disorder.

While there’s no cure, fibromyalgia may be managed by working with your healthcare provider. Studies have shown that regular exercises, such as walking, yoga, tai chi, and water aerobics, can help improve fibromyalgia symptoms, including pain and fatigue.

Sitting down for long periods has become unavoidable in today’s modern lifestyle. From commuting to and from work, sitting at a desk all day, watching TV, or browsing social media, the longer one sits, the more strenuous it becomes for the body. And unfortunately, inactivity is a leading cause of sciatica because sitting in one position for a long duration can create inflammation that irritates the sciatic nerve, commonly triggered by a bulging herniated disc in the spine or a bone spur. This causes a sharp, deep, burning pain or tingling sensation that typically runs down one side of your buttock and leg.

Regular exercise is a great way to prevent and treat sciatica. If your occupation requires a long time at your desk, take frequent breaks to walk or stretch. When sciatica symptoms persist or don’t disappear after several weeks, a chiropractor can help address the root cause of your sciatica and develop a treatment plan tailored to your needs to get back on the road to a full recovery.

Are you wondering why you should add planking to your fitness regimen?

For an exercise as simple to perform as the plank, it has too many benefits not to be doing. While many consider planks to be just an ab workout, they also activate various muscle groups and act as a full-body workout. When done properly and consistently, plank exercise strengthens your hips, lower back, and abdomen, improving your body balance.

If you haven’t been convinced yet, here are some more notable benefits outlined in the image below.

If you're planning to add an exercise to your fitness regimen that can strengthen your abs, hips, and lower back, the plank is perfect. For an activity as simple to perform as the plank, it has too many benefits not to be doing.

What happens if back pain goes untreated?

If any back pain or discomfort turns a few days into weeks or months, then know that this pain is anything but normal. Unfortunately, many people live with back pain, hoping it will magically go away; however, if left untreated, it’s more likely to recur or develop into a chronic problem. If your pain results from a more serious condition like degenerative disc disease, arthritis, or a herniated disc, you may face more severe pain as it progresses. Sadly, many people with chronic pain have their quality of life drained, developing depression-like symptoms.

If detected and diagnosed early, patients can undergo non-invasive treatment, including exercise, physical therapy, chiropractic care, and more. But if the condition is left unattended for an extended period, it may require surgery.

A chiropractor has extensive knowledge and experience in helping treat spinal issues that can worsen over time without being properly treated. Call us today to see how chiropractic care can help with your back injury and get you on the path to healing.

A backpack has always been a schooler’s main accessory. While it can be convenient, unfortunately, kids carrying overload backpacks are at risk of developing musculoskeletal disorders and postural dysfunction. In fact, according to the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission, more than 13,000 children are treated for backpack-related injuries every year. From books to school supplies and personal items, a backpack's weight should be no more than 15% of a child’s body weight. For parents, it's important to be aware of the potential issues that heavy backpacks present as, over time, they can cause muscle strain and back, neck, and shoulder pain.

Yet, arthritis is one of the common reasons for inactivity, which can result in various health risks, including type II diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and osteoporosis. Fortunately, there are a variety of low-impact exercises that are safe and effective in helping manage arthritis pain and symptoms.

Waking up to a stiff neck is the worst way to start the day. A stiff neck can be painful and distract you from everyday life, whether due to an awkward sleeping position, a long day hunched over a computer screen, or your phone. Unfortunately, neck pain is common and can often be debilitating; leaving the slightest turn on your head while driving to work or performing your usual recreational activities become annoying and uncomfortable. Along with a limited range of motion, headaches, arm pain, and shoulder pain could also be associated with stiffness in the neck.

For some people, a few simple remedies, such as lifestyle changes and gentle stretches, can provide relief. However, it may be time to consult a chiropractor when neck stiffness symptoms don’t go away after a few days or worsen. We can help diagnose the cause of your symptoms and develop an effective treatment plan to give you long-lasting relief so that you can get back to your routine.
