Did you know that L5 (the fifth lumbar vertebra) is one of the most commonly stressed areas in the lower back?

💥 It supports 100% of your body weight when walking
💥 And up to 400% when running

This area houses nerves that influence:
🦵 The lower back, legs, hips, and pelvic region

Some individuals may experience symptoms such as:
• Low back discomfort
• Leg or hip pain
• Numbness or tingling in the legs
• Changes in mobility or movement patterns

🎯 Regular chiropractic care focuses on joint health, posture, and mobility—helping you move and feel your best.

If you have questions about how chiropractic care fits into your wellness routine, we’re happy to chat!

💪 Are You a Weekend Warrior?

A Weekend Warrior is someone who packs all their physical activity—sports, workouts, yard work, adventures—into the weekend…
But your body doesn’t always appreciate the sudden overload. 😬

🛑 The result?

Monday morning back pain
Stiff joints
Increased risk of injury

🌀 Without consistent movement and proper recovery, your muscles and joints can’t keep up.

✨ How to Train Smarter, Not Just Harder:
✔️ Add light activity throughout the week
✔️ Warm up before and stretch after your weekend fun
✔️ Stay hydrated and fuel your body right
✔️ Schedule regular chiropractic care to keep your spine and joints moving well

You can do it all—just don’t do it all at once.
