Everyone meet our new chiropractic intern Colton as he talks about the importance of hip internal rotation and the golf swing. With the swing being a closed kinetic system, having sufficient hip mobility is an important part of keeping you healthy and out on the course. ⛳️

Meet Colton — Our New Intern at United Movement!

We’re excited to welcome Colton, a chiropractic intern from Palmer College, to the United Movement team for his final term! He’ll be with us for the next three months, learning alongside our providers and bringing fresh energy and insight to the clinic.

Colton has a passion for golf—both playing and helping others improve their game. He spent the day with us at Georges Niang's annual golf outing, and you may have seen him out on the course today where we sponsored a hole!

If you're looking to improve your swing, manage pain related to your game, or you play and want a provider who gets it, Colton is a great person to work with!

Introducing United Movement’s Foundational Strength Class

At United Movement, we do strength differently—because how you move matters as much as how much you lift. That’s why we’re launching our Foundational Strength Class, designed by Chiropractors and Physical Therapists to help you build strength the right way while preventing injuries and improving mobility.

✔️ Movement First Approach – Learn how to engage the right muscles before adding load, so you build strength without bad habits.
✔️ Stability & Mobility Drills – Improve flexibility and joint stability to move with power and control.
✔️ Proper Warm-Up & Recovery Techniques – Reduce post-workout soreness, support tendon healing, and improve longevity in training.
✔️ Strength Progressions – Train efficiently, targeting key movement patterns that translate to daily life and athletic performance.

Class Details:

📅 Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays
⏳ 1-hour sessions (Only 4 spots per class for personalized coaching)
💲 $20 per session
(No Membership!!!)

Our strength classes are more than just workouts—they’re an investment in moving better for life. Whether you’re new to strength training or an experienced athlete, this class is designed to build a solid foundation so you can train smarter, move pain-free, and perform at your best.

📲 Spots are limited—sign up now!

NEW SPACE UPDATE at United Movement! With the incredible help of our staff, their families, and a few local pros, we transformed our gym space in just three weeks. This new space is built for personal training and strength classes—helping our patients build resilience, move better, and stay stronger!

As you know, we love to pay attention to the details—how you move, how you train, and now, how we organize. Our hyper-organized wall storage keeps everything in its place, so there’s no wasted time searching for equipment (or pretending the heavier weights don’t exist). Clean, efficient, and designed to keep you moving!
