Lose the Stress With Chiropractic All-Year Long
By Donna Stark
I guess you could say I am pretty stressed out right now. I don't know why I wait until the very last minute to do my taxes, but for some reason, it's what I do. Every single year. Even after telling myself to get them done earlier. I judge that I am not alone with this too, because I hear the conversations and I see the stress of my friends' faces as well. The good news though, is that this time of year will pass, but the bad news is that it can leave the effects of stress behind. It's important to stay a step ahead of the stress that plagues your days because it can have significant consequences to your overall health and wellness.
