Give the Gift of Chiropractic Care to Mom

By Donna Kostiew

Thinking about buying a gift for my mom always seems to cause me some amount of anxiety. She’s the type of person that truly doesn’t seem to need anything and is happy with just a visit from her children. She’s sweet in that way, but the pressure is still there to hand her a gift for those special days of the year. So this year, I decided to give her a gift that will help her to focus on her health and make her feel better in the process.

Chiropractic care from The Joint Chiropractic is my answer this year and although it can’t be wrapped up and topped with a pretty bow, I know she will love it … and chiropractic care is great for all kinds of moms too!

Different Moms Have Different Needs

Using safe, natural, and gentle techniques, chiropractic care can help give our moms relief from pain and aches associated with the different demands and stressors of their daily lives.

The soon-to-be new mom - The body goes through many changes during pregnancy which can cause muscle aches, back pain, and reduced immune function. Chiropractic care can help with all of these problems by improving the function of the nervous and immune systems while also offering pain relief at the same time.

The stay-at-home mom – Chiropractors can help relieve muscle aches, back, neck and joint pain for all of the hardworking moms at home. Their targeted adjustments can also improve their health and quality of sleep, so not only are they able to tackle childcare and other work around the house, they are also able to take better care of their own bodies.

The professional mom – Sitting at a desk or standing all day at work can wreak havoc on the body … not to mention then coming home and taking care of the responsibilities there with family and housework. Chiropractors can help align their spine so they have better posture at work, relieving any pain that may come as a result of poor sitting habits. They can also offer suggestions on how to make the workspace ergonomically friendly.

The older mom – Chiropractic care can help restore balance and coordination and in doing so, the risk of falls, potential injuries, and medical costs is greatly reduced for the aging population. It has also consistently been shown to increase a patient’s range of motion. For many, this means that they are able to enjoy their life and hobbies more or can play with their grandchildren without pain.

I am really excited to finally come up with a gift that my mom will not only be excited about, but that will help her enjoy her life so much more.
