Struggling with tension in your neck, shoulder or upper back? Poor posture could be playing a big role…especially if you’re a parent, postpartum, or spending a lot of time at a desk (or wrangling little kiddos constantly!)

These 3 exercises are designed to:
✔️Activate your postural muscles.
✔️Release built up tension.
✔️Help you feel more aligned and supported throughout the day.

You don’t need fancy equipment or a lot of time- just a few minutes a day can make a huge difference. As I always say, a few minutes is always better than zero minutes!

✨Save this reel for later or share it with someone who could use a little posture love!

IF YOU GET ASKED 'WHY CHIROPRACTIC?'
Then you tell them this...

Chiropractic care isn't designed to instantly make you feel better, it's designed to make you instantly heal better.

By correcting nerve interference, or most people will say trapped nerves, then your body can function at it's best.

For us Chiros, It's about finding the root cause of your problem and correcting areas of dysfunction so that you can live your life to your very best without worry of constant pain or injury!

While pain medications may offer temporary relief from neck pain, multiple studies reveal opioids, prescribed for this purpose, DO NOT relieve acute low back or neck pain (lasting up to 12 weeks), and may even exacerbate the condition, leading to increased pain.

Short-term relief may be required but they don’t address the root cause of neck pain. Natural approaches like chiropractic care, posture correction, stretching, and gentle movement can help reduce pain and improve long-term function—without relying on medication.

Let’s work on lasting relief, naturally by asking your Chiropractor. 🙌
