Self-adjusting might feel good in the moment, but it comes with hidden consequences.

In this video, I explain what really happens when you force your own spinal “cracks". While it may create temporary relief, repeated self-adjusting overstretches the ligaments, weakens joint stability, and can accelerate wear-and-tear changes like arthritis over time.

A proper Chiropractic adjustment restores specific, controlled motion to the joints that actually need it, not the ones that are already moving too much. If you want a spine that feels stable, supported, and resilient long-term, this video is worth your time to watch!

Most guys carry their wallet in their back pocket… but did you know it can actually throw your whole spine out of balance?

Sitting even a few minutes on a wallet can torque the pelvis, irritate nerves, tighten the low back, and even affect the way your neck stabilizes.

Check out this quick breakdown...a simple change can make a big difference in how you feel every day!

Investing in your health isn’t optional — the only choice is when you invest.

In this video, I break down the two paths we all face:

👉 Proactive investment: small, intentional steps that keep your body aligned, resilient, and performing well.

👉 Reactive investment: waiting until symptoms force your hand with more doctor visits, medications, and even surgeries.

One path compounds your energy, strength, and long-term wellbeing. The other drains time, money, and quality of life.

Your health is your most valuable asset. How you invest in it today shapes the life you get to live tomorrow!

Stress isn’t just mental. It shows up in your posture, digestion, sleep, and energy.

Physical. Chemical. Emotional.

At McKenzie Chiropractic, we identify how your body is adapting (or not adapting) to these hidden stressors and help reset your system so you can rise above them.

🌿 Book your session today and start feeling lighter, clearer, and more aligned!
