World Mental Health Day is a day to remind ourselves and our loved ones that it is okay to not be okay. It is okay to be sad, be fearful, have anxiety, and feel upset. It is also a day to end the stigma and let loved ones know that there is many different options to seek help. Let’s help break the stigma around mental health and talk about it! .

👷🏽‍♂️ Shockwave Therapy 🔩
Super excited to be able to provide shockwave therapy again at both locations! Shockwave is a great tool to help patients overcome chronic injuries with the help of high energy acoustic waves to promote regeneration and reparative processes of the bones, tendons and other soft tissues! In this video I’m treating a very stubborn case of tennis elbow.
It works great work conditions such as:
▪️Chronic Tendinopathies
▪️Plantar Fasciitis
▪️Golfers and Tennis Elbow
▪️Jumpers Knee
▪️Much more!!
Comment below if you’ve ever had experience with this machine or if you have any questions on how to book in with me!

What is Scoliosis? 🔸

Scoliosis is a common spinal deformity in which the spine develops with one or more abnormal curves. Most cases are mild, but some cases can be severe and require surgery. Depending on how badly the spine is misaligned, symptoms of scoliosis can include uneven posture, pain, reduced flexibility, difficulty breathing, organ damage, and in severe cases, death. Anyone can get scoliosis but most generally develops in children and more often in girls than boys. 🔸

What can Chiropractors do?
Chiropractors can screen for scoliosis through a detailed history and a thorough physical exam, they can monitor the progression or regression of the curve through physical exams and imaging, and they can also treat the condition. The primary goal of scoliosis treatment is to maximize the mobility and function of the spine. When the spine has abnormal curves, it can cause pain and stress on the weight bearing joints. Treatments can include bracing, exercises, and manual spinal adjustments. 🔸

If you suffer from scoliosis or know someone who does, have them contact their local chiropractor or feel free to contact me! 🔸

Even if it’s 9am, snowing, cold, and traffic is a nightmare, I always enter my treatment room with a smile on my face. I strongly believe that having positive energy and an optimistic outlook on life makes a huge difference when it comes tom patient care. Sometimes patients have a bad day, a bad week, or even a bad year because they suffer from acute or chronic injuries. My goal is to always help them get better but also impact their lives with some positive vibes even if it is just for the duration of their treatment. Such a small gesture like a smile or a laugh can go a long way and that’s why having FUN is always a part of my treatment plan!

I truly enjoy being a Chiropractor because being able to help my patients get rid of their aches and pains is very rewarding. Seeing them return to doing what they love is the best part of being a practitioner. But, it is very special when that patient is a family member who follows treatment plans, rehab protocols, and advice. Today was a special day for me as I got to work out 🏋🏼‍♂️ with my father but was also able to show him a few techniques to loosen up his back and help him relieve some of his low back pain 🧘🏽‍♀️. For anyone who knows my dad, also knows how stubborn he can be 🤦🏽‍♂️. He usually asks for my advice and then does not follow it. I’m very proud of the fact that he is making active lifestyle changes like going to the gym, changing his diet, and taking my advice to help him feel and move better. Pops, you the real MVP 🏆

🐜🐞 Dead Bug 🦗🕷
The “Dead Bug” workout is a simple and effective exercise to help strengthen your core as well as protect your lower back from injuries. It has a very odd name but when you actually give it a shot you soon realize why it is called the “Dead Bug.” I prescribe this exercise to all of my low back pain patients and find it has a huge impact on their spinal health. Read the steps below to learn how to do it! ——————————————————————————
Here are the steps to follow:
1️⃣ Lie on your back with your arms extended in front of your shoulders
2️⃣ Bend your hips and knees to a 90-degree angle
3️⃣ Tighten your core and press your lower back into the ground
4️⃣ Take a deep breath in
5️⃣ As you exhale, slowly extend your left leg toward the floor and bring your right arm overhead. Keep your abs tight and don't let your lower back arch
6️⃣ Slowly return your arm and leg to the starting position
7️⃣ Repeat with your opposite arm and leg. Continue alternating for 3 sets at 10 reps
———————————————————————————
An important thing to note with this stretch is that it should be done slow and should not be performed if pain is felt. Give it a shot and let me know how it feels in the comments below👇🏽
