Focus on good posture

Hi Everyone!

This month we are focusing on the importance of good posture. I like to tell patients that having good posture is as essential for spinal health as brushing your teeth is for dental health. That seems to be an analogy most can relate to. As a matter of fact, I think most of us take better care of our teeth than we do our spine. Why is that? If the teeth decay or are lost, it does not dramatically effect health and can be remedied quite easily with modern dentistry. If the spine decays and becomes arthritic we know scientifically that nerve interference occurs and overall health diminishes.

This happens often without pain but many times is also associated with pain, loss of ability and function. Therefore we encourage you to bring your BACK to the FRONT of your mind when it comes to your health. Be sure to include spinal health checks in your routine health care and make an appointment to see us if you are in pain or suffering any loss of range of motion. Until our next adjustment...

Yours in health,
