Achilles tendinopathy is an irritation of the Achilles tendon. It is one of the most common types of pain felt behind the heel and up the back of the ankle when walking or running.

Tennis elbow isn’t just for tennis players—it can happen to anyone who uses their hand and wrist repeatedly, like typing, painting, or lifting at the gym. This overuse causes tiny tears in the forearm tendons, leading to pain, stiffness, and grip weakness.

Chiropractic care can help by reducing inflammation, restoring joint mobility, and using targeted exercises to strengthen your forearm—helping you recover faster and prevent flare-ups.

You know how frustrating migraines can be. And if you’ve ever felt like you're just waiting for the next one to hit, this might help. 🤕

A recent study found that regular cardio exercise reduced migraine days. Even better, combining cardio with simple neck and shoulder strengthening exercises led to fewer headaches, less anxiety, and overall better well-being.

There were no side effects, just movement. 🏃‍♀️‍➡️

If migraines are holding you back, let’s create a plan to help you feel and move better.

Struggling with stubborn heel pain? 🦶

Plantar fasciitis is a common cause of heel pain, especially for active people or those on their feet all day. Recent research shows that hands-on therapy and rehab, including therapeutic taping, can help:

✅ Reduce pain
✅ Improve foot and ankle function
✅ Decrease inflammation in the plantar fascia

Even better, these benefits often last beyond the treatment itself.

If heel pain is keeping you from staying active, we’re here to help you find the right solution. 👍

Did you know that extra weight can also affect your hands and wrists? 🖐️

A recent study found that people with a higher body mass index (BMI over 30) were typically diagnosed with carpal tunnel syndrome and trigger finger about 6 years earlier than those with a healthy BMI.

Other things that sped up the onset of these conditions included smoking and type 1 diabetes.

This suggests inflammation and metabolic stress may manifest as pain, numbness, or hand stiffness earlier than expected.

The good news is that taking steps to manage weight and improve movement can reduce stress on your hands and wrists. 👍

If your hands feel stiff, numb, or just not right, come in and let’s examine them. ✅

Does coffee help or hurt migraines? The answer might surprise you. ☕️

A new study found that regular coffee drinkers may have a lower risk of developing migraines. Certain compounds in coffee may help protect against migraine attacks.

But here’s the catch. If you suddenly stop drinking coffee or have too much, it can temporarily trigger headaches for some people. That’s why the coffee–migraine connection has been so confusing.

The bottom line? For many people, coffee in moderation might be part of the solution, not the problem.

Learning how your daily habits affect your symptoms can make a real difference if you have recurring headaches or migraines.

Book an appointment today and figure out what works best for you. 🗓️

Sitting too long can do more than cause stiffness—it can impact blood sugar too. 🪑🩸

A recent study found that short movement breaks every 45 minutes, like a 3-minute walk or a few squats, help control blood sugar better than one long walk.

The key: regular movement throughout the day supports your muscles, joints, heart, and even your metabolism. 🏃‍♀️‍➡️

If you sit for long periods, we can help you build easy ways to stay active and protect your health. Schedule an appointment today! 🗓️
