Overstretching muscles that are already overworked or compensating can lead to irritation, inflammation, or even injury. This is especially common in areas like the neck, low back, hips, and hamstrings. Dr. Overstad focuses on restoring proper joint motion and improving nervous system function.

Tight muscles mean they need more stretching. But in many cases, stretching isn’t fixing the real problem. Call (612) 802-2580

If your body feels tighter, less responsive, or slower to bounce back, micro-stress may be playing a role. Paying attention to these subtle signals can help you stay ahead of discomfort and support long-term physical well-being.

Micro-stress doesn’t usually announce itself. Instead, your body feels tighter, less flexible, or slower to recover. Call (612) 802-2580

Day 2 of sinus acupuncture to the face. It sure opens things up. Theo 🐶 is looking 👀 at me a bit strange though. 🤪

Many people assume that all pain comes from tight or injured muscles. While muscles certainly play a role, they are often not the true source of ongoing discomfort. In many cases, pain reflects nervous system overload, not simple muscle strain. Understanding the difference helps explain why pain sometimes lingers even after rest, stretching, or massage.

Muscle pain usually develops after overuse, injury, or sudden strain. You might notice soreness, stiffness, or tenderness in a specific area.

Digital fatigue has quietly become the new form of back pain. People spend hours sitting, scrolling, typing, and staring at screens, often without noticing how their posture shifts over time. Your body wasn’t designed to hold the same position all day, and your spine responds quickly to the stress. The more time you spend on a device, the harder your muscles and joints work to keep you upright, balanced, and focused.

When you’re overwhelmed or carrying mental tension, the muscles in your neck tighten automatically. This protective response can restrict movement, cause headaches, or lead to that familiar feeling of stiffness at the base of your skull.
If your neck feels tight at the end of most days, your body is signaling that your stress levels are too high.

Stress levels can be controlled with regular chiropractic care, and can make you feel better. Call Dr. Overstad at (612) 802-2580

Your nervous system controls every function in your body — including your immune response. When the spine is misaligned, it can disrupt the nerve signals that help regulate immunity. Gentle chiropractic adjustments remove this interference, restoring clear communication between the brain and body so your immune system can work efficiently.

Your immune system is your body’s built-in defense network, constantly working to protect you from illness, infection, and inflammation.
