❄️ We know how this goes here in NWI! 🤷🏻‍♂️

They are saying Snow’s Coming, Valpo… and So Are the Sore Backs! 😅

Before you grab that shovel like it’s a sword in a snowstorm, remember these Chiropractic-Approved Snow Shoveling Tips to keep your spine happy:

🦴 1. Warm up first!
Your back isn’t a snowplow. A few stretches before heading out can save you from an unexpected “snow-chiropractic-emergency.”

💪 2. Bend your knees, not your spine!
Lift with your legs — they’re built for power. Your back… not so much.

🌨️ 3. Push the snow, don’t toss it!
Pretend it’s your toddler’s attitude — guide it gently out of your way instead of trying to throw it across the yard. 😜

🧊 4. Take breaks!
If you’re sweating through your winter coat, it’s time to pause, hydrate, and admire your crooked driveway lines.

💙 5. Schedule a post-snow alignment.
Even if you “feel fine,” your spine might disagree tomorrow morning. We’ve got your back — literally!

👉 Call or Text 219-850-1031 to schedule your adjustment before the next snowflake falls.

🕰️ It’s time to “fall back!” 🍁
Don’t forget to set your clocks back one hour this weekend and enjoy that extra hour of rest — your spine (and nervous system) will thank you! 😴✨

Good sleep and good posture go hand in hand — both help your body restore, repair, and stay aligned.
Let’s use this time change as a reminder to check in on your sleep habits, posture, and overall wellness. 💙
