How Chiropractic Keeps You in the Game
By Sandy Schroeder
When you are out there competing, you want to be in great shape and performing at your best. If you are active every day, you know what it takes to keep the body strong and healthy. More and more people are discovering how effective chiropractic can be to support this effort.
Stop in at The Joint Chiropractic clinic near you to find out how chiropractic can sharpen fitness routines naturally.
How It Works
When you come in, your chiropractor will ask about your daily work and fitness schedule and health history. If you have aches and pain or reduced range of motion, your chiropractor will track the issue to eliminate painful joint restrictions. A gentle targeted spinal adjustment may deliver far-reaching pain relief and an overall sense of well-being. Many people report better sleep, more energy and increased alertness.
Weekly 15-minute spinal adjustments are often the best choice to keep the body pain-free, flexible and functioning with benefits like these.
- Helping to reduce muscle soreness after workouts
- Increasing range of motion for better performance
- Providing natural pain relief for joint pain
- Strengthening the immune system
- Increasing performance power
- Cutting recovery time
Full-Body Maintenance
In your daily travels on the job and in workouts, new issues may come up. Your chiropractor can help with back or neck pain, leg pain and sciatica, headaches and migraines, shoulder, arm, elbow or wrist pain, knee, ankle and foot pain, arthritis, bursitis, and carpal tunnel syndrome.
Moving Ahead
As you learn to rely on chiropractic support you may want to expand and retool fitness efforts for yourself and your family.
Make family fitness a goal - Getting everybody outside every weekend could start with new sports, wilderness hikes or new bike trails. Talk with your family about their choices to make them happen.
Treat your spouse - Help your spouse set aside time to try a new yoga, tai chi or dance class.
Bike more, drive less - Whenever you can, choose to bike or walk instead of driving. Run errands, bike to the park or bike to work if possible.
Rethink work - You may be active every weekend, but still sitting a lot at work. Consider using a flexible workstation to sit or stand, and stand or walk while holding meetings. Move at least five minutes at the end of each hour that you sit.
Whenever you are ready to enlist some great fitness support, stop by The Joint Chiropractic clinic near you. Affordable personal healthcare plans eliminate the hassle of insurance. Convenient weekend and evening hours make visits easy. Walk-in visits are welcome.
