📏 Fun fact: most “short legs” aren’t actually short

Patients tell me all the time that a doctor once told them one leg is shorter than the other. Here’s why that can look true (even when it isn’t).

There are two types of short leg:

Anatomical short leg:
This is when one leg bone is physically longer than the other. It’s a true structural difference that develops as you grow and is part of your skeletal anatomy.

Functional short leg (pelvic imbalance):
This is much more common, and it’s often fixable. In these cases, the legs are usually the same length, but a tilted or rotated pelvis makes one leg appear shorter. When the pelvis is off balance, it changes how your body stands and distributes weight, which can add stress to the spine, hips, and knees.

Chiropractic care focuses on restoring proper pelvic and spinal motion so the body can balance and move more evenly.

If you’ve ever been told you have a short leg, it may be worth finding out what’s actually causing it.

🦴 Is One of Your Ribs Throwing a Tantrum?

If you’ve ever felt a sharp stab in your upper back or chest when you breathe or twist, there’s a good chance a rib joint isn’t moving the way it should.

Your ribs are supposed to glide smoothly every time you breathe. When one gets irritated or restricted, you might notice:

• Sharp or nagging pain between your shoulder blades
• Pain when taking a deep breath or sneezing
• Tender spots along the ribs
• Discomfort when twisting or reaching
• A tight, “stuck” feeling in your upper back

The good news? Since your ribs connect to your spine, chiropractic care can help restore motion and calm irritated joints so breathing and moving feel normal again.

Don’t let a grumpy rib boss you around.

Ever wondered what therapeutic cupping is — and how it can help you during a chiropractic visit?

Therapeutic cupping is a technique where small cups are placed on the skin to create gentle suction. This suction helps:

• Increase blood flow to tight muscles
• Loosen fascia and connective tissue
• Reduce muscle tension and knots
• Support the body’s natural healing process

During a chiropractic visit, cupping can complement adjustments by:

✔️ Preparing tight muscles so your joints move more easily
✔️ Reducing soreness or stiffness after an adjustment
✔️ Improving circulation to speed up recovery
✔️ Helping relieve tension-related pain in the back, neck, or shoulders

Cupping is gentle, safe, and can feel surprisingly relaxing — many patients notice immediate relief and better range of motion.

Pairing chiropractic care with therapeutic cupping is a great way to maximize your results and feel your best faster.

Neck tension giving you headaches at the base of your skull?

The levator scapulae — a small muscle from your shoulder blade to the base of your skull — is often the culprit. When it gets tight, it can cause that deep, nagging pain that feels like it’s coming from your head… but it’s actually coming from your neck and shoulder.

Common triggers:
• Looking down at your phone
• Desk posture
• Stress or shoulder shrugging
• Awkward sleeping positions

Chiropractic can help:
✔️ Gentle neck adjustments
✔️ Muscle relaxation and soft tissue work
✔️ Improved posture and shoulder mechanics
✔️ Relief from nerve irritation

Quick stretch to try:
Sit tall, hold the bottom of your chair to keep your shoulder down, turn your head slightly, and look toward your armpit. Use your other hand to gently guide your head forward. Hold 20–30 seconds and repeat both sides.

Stop letting neck tension control your day.
