Once again research supports conservative care vs surgery especially for the shoulder, knee, and spine.

👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽Mental health days for kids? Illinois says yes please and thank you. Students across the prairie state will be able to take up to five excused mental health days starting in January. And there's data to back up that new policy. According to the CDC, in the spring of last year, hospitals saw a 24% increase in the number of visits to the emergency room for mental health reasons among kids aged 5 to 11 years old, and a 31% increase for kids 12 to 17. Yikes.

Starting in January, students will be allowed to use their five mental health days without needing to provide a doctor's note for their absence.
