Neck and jaw problems are often connected! 🔗

A new study found that people with cervical disc herniations often also have jaw issues, and more severe neck pain can lead to worse jaw symptoms, especially in women.

If your neck feels stiff, painful, or limited, it’s essential to also have your jaw checked. When one area is irritated, it can easily affect the other.

A thorough examination at our office can detect both issues, allowing you to receive the proper treatment and experience faster relief.

If you’re noticing jaw clicking, headaches, or neck pain, we’re here to help support long-term comfort and well-being. 💙

Does your thumb or wrist feel sore after scrolling or typing? 📱😣

Doing the same motion over and over can irritate the tendons in your wrist — especially with all the screen time we have today.

Taking short breaks, doing simple stretches, and getting care early can help ease the pain.

If your hands need some extra help, send us a message! 💬💙

Too much light at night can actually cause issues for your heart.💡❤️

A study of nearly 90,000 adults found that people who slept in the brightest bedrooms had higher risks of heart disease, heart attacks, and stroke, even when lifestyle and genetics were taken into account.

Keeping your bedroom dim or fully dark at night is a simple habit that may support long-term heart health, particularly after the age of 40. 🌙😴

Small changes can make a big difference.

Is your shoulder bothering you when you reach overhead? 🤕🙋‍♂️

Most people focus on strengthening the rotator cuff muscles, but the shoulder blade is also a significant player. A new study found that incorporating shoulder-blade exercises into standard shoulder rehabilitation led to even better pain relief and improved function.

In other words, your shoulder blade just needs to join the workout party. 🎉💪

If your shoulder has been nagging you, we can help you get it moving smoothly again. Watch this video to learn how we can support your recovery. https://www.youtube.com/embed/ktLPQJ0SHoE?rel=0

Did you know chronic pain can affect more than just the area that hurts? 😟💭

An extensive study of over 450,000 people found that the more areas of chronic pain someone has, the higher their risk of conditions like heart disease, diabetes, and stroke. For example:

✔ Pain in 4+ areas → 82% higher risk
✔ Widespread pain → 59% higher risk
✔ Highest risk combo: head + stomach/abdomen

Chronic pain impacts sleep, stress, movement, and inflammation, all of which influence long-term health. The good news? You don’t have to push through it. We can help build a personalized plan to reduce pain and support your overall well-being.

Alright Bend… it’s been a brutal winter out there.

Black ice everywhere. Snow shoveling injuries. Fender benders at every stop sign…
—or at least that’s what my outfit says. 😄❄️

Okay, let’s be honest… this winter’s been pretty mild.
Still, all it takes is one icy sidewalk, one over-ambitious shovel session, or one low-speed fender-bender in a parking lot to leave your body stiff, sore, and feeling off.

That’s where we come in.
At Wellness Doctor, we treat everything from slip-and-falls and auto accident injuries to athletic and overuse injuries using a full sports-medicine approach, including:
✔️ Chiropractic care
✔️ Deep tissue massage
✔️ Class 4 laser therapy

✔️ Therapeutic exercise protocols

Great news: We’ve added a new associate Chiropractor, Dr. Matt Tompkins, which means we’re now accepting more patients—and same-day appointments are available.

So, whether winter actually gets harsh…
or you just moved funny getting out of your car—
we’ve got you covered.

📅 Call or book online today. Your body will thank you.

Our bodies are constantly exposed to chemical and environmental stressors — from what we put on our skin 🧴, what we breathe 🌫️, and even what we eat 🍽️.

Suffering from migraines? Consider adding yoga to your routine!

A new study found that people who combined their usual migraine care with a 12-week yoga program had fewer headaches, less pain, and better day-to-day function. 🙌

Yoga helps calm the nervous system, improve mobility, and support your body’s ability to manage symptoms over time.

If migraines are affecting your daily life, we’re here to help. Schedule an appointment today!

Hand pain, numbness, or tingling during pregnancy? 🤰🖐️ You’re not alone; Carpal tunnel is very common in the third trimester.

A new study found that both rigid and elastic wrist splints can reduce pain and swelling, as well as improve grip strength. Neither one is “better,” so you can simply choose the option that feels most comfortable for you. 💛

If wrist or hand discomfort is interfering with your daily routine, we can help you find the right support and relief.

You’ve probably heard of the sciatic nerve… but have you ever heard of the cluneal nerves? 🤔

These small nerves located near the back of your pelvis can become irritated, causing low back pain that mimics other conditions, which is why cluneal nerve pain often gets overlooked.

This is why a thorough exam matters. Not all low back pain comes from the same source, and finding the true cause leads to the most effective treatment. ✔️

Accurate diagnosis means better results, and better results mean getting back to moving and feeling your best. 🙌

If your low back pain has been persistent, we’re here to help identify the cause.

🔥 Ready to Kickstart Your Weight Loss This Year? 🔥

Right after the holidays is one of the best times to start a weight-loss journey. Why? Because the holidays often leave our metabolism a little out of rhythm — blood sugar swings 🍬, inflammation 😣, disrupted sleep 😴, and detox pathways that get overloaded. All of this tells the body to hold on to weight.

That’s exactly where the Metagenics Clear Change Program makes such a big difference. 💚

This isn’t a diet — it’s a 10-day, clinical-grade metabolic reset designed to clear the bottlenecks that slow your metabolism down.
✨ Supports liver detox pathways
✨ Calms inflammation
✨ Improves insulin sensitivity
✨ Gives your mitochondria a boost to burn fuel efficiently
✨ Helps your body shift from “store” ➜ “release” mode

Whether your goal is 10 pounds or 100 pounds, this program lays the foundation for sustainable, healthy weight loss — not the frustrating up-and-down cycle.

Most people notice:
⚡ Steadier energy
🔥 Fewer cravings
🌿 Better digestion
✨ And that feeling that their body is finally “turning back on”

If you’re ready to start your weight-loss journey with momentum — not burnout — the Clear Change Program is a powerful place to begin.

Reach out or stop by the office, and we can even drop-ship your 10-day kit right to your door 🚚📦

Here’s to living your best life this year — we’re here to help you get there! 🙌✨
