Speed up your recovery with Chiropractic Care

In sports, recovery is just as important as training. Chiropractic care can promote blood flow, reduce inflammation and speed up the recovery process so you can get back to doing what you love faster.

High-quality supplements are an amazing way to make sure your body has all the necessary nutrients to function optimally. Research shows some supplements are also very helpful for specific conditions such as gut health, brain health, sleep quality and a wide variety of metabolic conditions.

Different supplements are indicated and recommended for each individual depending on genetic predispositions, activity level and needs, metabolic health and diet.

These 5 supplements are among our favorites to help support your essential daily needs and are generally indicated for most of the population.

Always make sure you consult a healthcare practitioner before starting a supplement routine to rule out any potential contraindications.

Investing in sufficient sleep is the ultimate act of self-care. Sleep is essential for replenishing both our body and brain, enabling us to maintain focus, think clearly, enhance productivity, and foster a positive outlook throughout the day.

The significance of sleep often gets overlooked. Research shows insufficient sleep can negatively impact the pre-frontal cortex, the area of the brain that processes emotions, decision-making and attention. The decline in these cognitive functions can dampen daily tasks both at work and at home. Additionally, inadequate sleep heightens the risk of anxiety, mental health issues, and various health concerns.

Make sure you prioritize your sleep, starting with these simple tips and hacks.

Keeping your spine mobile and flexible is not only good for your body, but it can actually influence your brain health.

Movement and regular exercise are great ways to maintain a healthy spine. Chiropractic adjustments can help remove motion restrictions within your spine and restore optimal spinal movement.

MEASURE, MEASURE, MEASURE!

We believe it's very important to collect as much data as possible to track improvements. From range of motion, to muscle strength, pain levels, posture, orthopedic and neurological tests, we want to measure changes that confirm improvements through care.

Grip strength, measured through a dynamometer, is one of the data point we collect during the initial assessment and regularly track during the course of care.

Research evidence linked grip strength with future disability, death, and the onset of cardiovascular disease in adults. While not a definitive diagnostic tool, grip strength can be used as an adjunct biomarker of ageing across the lifespan.

HORMESIS

"What doesn't kill you makes you stronger" can be used to describe the hormetic effect of certain biological stressors.

Hormesis describes the dose-response to certain environmental agents: at high doses these stressors are dangerous and toxic, at low-dose, controlled amounts, the same stressors can elicit beneficial responses.

Some examples of these stressors: intense exercise, exposure to cold (ice baths) or heat (sauna), caloric restriction or intermittent fasting, challenging cognitive exercises, breath manipulation and certain compounds found in fruits and vegetables.

The key is dosing these stressors correctly to ensure beneficial responses, while avoiding any negative impact.

DO YOU GET ENOUGH FIBER?

So important for our gastrointestinal (and overall) health! Fiber can help:
- maintain optimal digestion
- improve gastrointestinal motility
- sweep bad cholesterol from the digestive tract
- stabilize blood sugar
- increase satiety
- support good gut microbes

Research shows only about 5% of American adults consume enough fiber on a daily basis. You should aim for about 25 grams daily.

We always recommend to get fiber from a variety of sources through food (legumes, fruits, vegetables and whole grains), but if you're having a hard time getting enough, PSYLLIUM HUSK can be a helpful source of additional fiber. Mixing 2-3 teaspoons to water can provide about 10-15 grams of fiber and you can find it at most health stores.

Give it a try!

Are you making sure you are eating enough fiber daily?

Try this: track your fiber intake on an average day, you can use a food tracking app or google to find an estimate of the fiber content in your food.

Are you getting at least 30 grams per day? If you do, good job, keep it up! If you're not, it may be time to increase your fruit and vegetable intake to boost your fiber consumption.

You need fiber to keep your body healthy, regulate digestion, improve cholesterol levels, regulate blood sugar and manage inflammation. Additionally, the good bacteria in your gut love fiber. A healthy microbiome is key to maintain and promote your overall health.

We always recommend getting fiber through your food, but fiber supplements can be a great tool for certain individuals/situations. Psyllium Husk is one of our favorite way to supplement fiber.
