Thornhill Family Chiropractic

A pinched nerve puts a person more at risk for other problems. Symptoms of sciatica, tennis elbow, and carpal tunnel syndrome may appear in people with a pinched nerve.

Pinched nerves can occur anywhere in the body but happen most often in the neck, back, elbows, and wrists. Regular chiropractic adjustments can reduce stress to treat pinched nerves as well as prevent them overall.

Some tips as mindful reminders...

Just like your teeth, your car and so many things...your spine requires regular maintenance in order to function optimally!

Unlike some offices that focus on symptom reduction or focus on collateral damage, our Corrective Office focuses on the CORE PROBLEM at the spine and nervous system that is affecting your health in ways you feel or notice but more importantly in ways you have no idea.

An objective view is helpful in both diagnosis and optimal treatment. Our new patient exams include x-rays (as needed) and we have capability to take x-rays in office. What do your joints look like on the inside?

February is HEART HEALTH month. Be sure to get adjusted regularly, aim for healthy weight, get moving/stay active, eat for heart health, avoid smoking, and know your numbers.

Happy Friday-Eve!

Chiropractic is so valuable to all. Our docs see many women throughout their pregnancies and beyond. Babies & children get subluxations too.

Take control...stay well aligned with each adjustment...
Make chiropractic a part of your wellness path

See the signs. Hear the signs. Give attention to the signs.

Your body knows itself and so should you. If something feels off, it probably is. Don’t take a "wait and see what happens" attitude. One way to start listening to your body is by getting chiropractic adjustments.

Schedule your next visit and your body will thank you. Listen to your body. It has things to tell you😉

The Triad of Health :

There are three basic factors to consider in maintaining or restoring natural health. They form an equilateral triangle in maintaining health.

If one side of the triad becomes deficient, diminished health results and may lead to a significant health problem.

Dr. Dennis & Dr. Leon work with you to help with the structural portion as they focus on correcting vertebral subluxations.

Chiropractic is a great way to treat various types of posture conditions, including:

– Kyphosis, also known as a hunchback, is a condition where your upper back curves too far forward, causing a hunch. This condition often comes with pain and stiffness in the back.

– Flat back is a condition where the natural curve in the back has straightened out, involving symptoms such as constant back or leg pain and difficulty standing up straight.

– Hyperlordosis, also known as swayback, is when there is an excessive spine curvature in the back, impacting the mobility and causing pain in your back.

– Forward neck, or text neck, is a condition in which your head leans forward from the shoulders. For every inch that your head is leaning forward, there are approximately ten extra pounds of stress put on your neck, back, shoulders, and spine. These are also the areas that you will feel stiffness, tension and neck pain.

By going to a chiropractic doctor, your poor posture can be properly treated. Through a healing plan tailored to your condition and body, you can naturally return to good posture.

In honor of our 10th ANNIVERSARY, we are offering free initial exams for the month of July. For a thorough analysis of your spine, come see Dr. Dennis or Dr. Leon by calling 905-695-0158 to set-up an appointment!

It’s recommended that you get adjustments from a young age.

ALL ABOUT THE CERVICAL SPINE

The cervical spine – that is, the upper seven of our vertebrae – must surely rank among the most under-appreciated and most vital parts of our body. Its 37 separate joints endlessly allow the head and neck to move atop the torso – all the while obeying constant commands from the special senses and reflex mechanisms.

Look at it this way: the cervical spine faithfully holds up our heavy heads between 14 to 16 hours a day. This is hardly easy. First of all, the head is far from evenly balanced on top of our spine. In fact, it’s tilted heavily forward; without the cervical muscles, it would topple over onto our chest.

Secondly, the head’s weight can become unbearable over time. (If you’d like to get a clearer picture, try this experiment: hold a bowling ball with your elbow on a table for as long as you can. Few people can keep this up longer than an hour.)

That means the cervical spine is a vital part of nearly all our everyday activities, including speaking, gesturing, sitting, standing, lying down, breathing and many more. Most of what our head does, it does thanks to the cervical spine.

And that’s why you’ll be glad to know that chiropractors have led the way in recognizing the cervical spine’s uniqueness – even from the rest of the spine – and caring for it accordingly!

Fun Chiropractic fact:

The popping sound you hear during adjustments is just air being released when the joint space is opened!
