What’s the best exercise combo for older adults with back pain? 💡

A study found that trunk muscle strengthening helps, but combining it with aerobic exercise delivers bigger wins—less pain, better function, lower fall risk, and improved mood.

So, resistance exercise builds stability, but moving your heart amplifies results, too. Call our office today so we can help you get started! 📞

Have hip pain? It might not just be your hip. 🦴

Sometimes hip pain (like hip impingement, when the joint doesn’t move smoothly) shows up along with problems in the low back or the SI joint—the joint that connects your spine and pelvis. Researchers found:

🔹 Many people with hip issues also have SI joint problems
🔹 Spine problems can sometimes cause hip changes too
🔹 Having both hip and back issues can make recovery slower

👉 Takeaway: Hip pain and back pain often go hand-in-hand. If your hip keeps bothering you, it’s worth checking the whole picture. Call our office today to schedule your appointment! 📞

📱 More screen time = higher health risks!

Kids and teens who spend lots of time on screens have a greater risk of future heart and metabolic issues—especially if they aren’t getting enough sleep.

Family reminder: less screen, more sleep, more movement! 💛

Your back muscles play a big role in how your spine feels. 💪

Research shows that people with ongoing low back pain often have weaker muscles and more fatty tissue in their backs—especially in the muscles that help stabilize the spine. Over time, this can make pain worse.

The good news? Stronger, healthier back muscles are linked to less pain and a better quality of life. 🙌

If back pain keeps returning, we can help you build a plan to restore muscle health. Call today or schedule your appointment! 📞
