Dr. Beth is excited to be offering a new service this fall - Dry Needling! Some of you may already be aware of this technique's benefits, while it is a mystery to others. Dry needling is a modality used to treat musculoskeletal pain by targeting trigger points in our muscles as well as addressing the central nervous system. Trigger points are tight bands in our muscles that can cause pain and ineffective muscular contractions. When the needle is inserted into the trigger points, we can cause a twitch response or a rapid relaxing or releasing of the tightness. When coupled with Chiropractic adjustments, this service will be a game changer for Dr. Beth's already nearly world-famous treatments.

We’ve been through a LOT of different brands of pillows in 15 years of chiropractic practice but we are really excited about the results from Pillowise USA pillows. The feedback from our patients has been overwhelmingly positive. We are one of only three retailers in the area to carry them in stock. Come in for a measurement at your next visit for a custom pillow!

Ever wonder about our cool logo? Well, it’s tribute to the great Milwaukee Road, a railroad that had its origins in the Menomonee Valley since 1847. The Milwaukee Road was a major employer in the region and their red yellow and orange color scheme was a recognizable emblem for generations. We think it’s cool to honor area history in our office in the Hide House complex with a nod to the industrial past of the Cream City.

Y'all listen up! I love technology but technology - especially cell phones - is killing our NECKS/SPINES. 🤳
When I first started practicing, I rarely saw kids with neck pain. More recently, I am, regularly treating 7 and 8-year-olds with neck pain. I am seeing teenagers with premature spinal aging and degeneration similar to what I should see in a 60-year-old.

The neck has a 40-degree curve in it. This curve is essential to support the weight of the head. The average head weighs 12-15 pounds. When we look DOWN and FORWARD the weight on the spine increases. Some studies say for each inch the head moves forward, the pressure on the spine doubles!

The average person spends 2-4 hours on their cell phones a day. In this picture, I have 60 pounds of pressure on my spine. That would be like me carrying a 60-pound dog around my neck! Just think of what's happening to your poor neck every day! 🤔
Imagine if I took your finger and bent it backward for 2 hours. How would your finger feel? It would hurt! 😡 It would be sore and inflamed from the constant stretching of the tissue. This is similar to what happens to our neck when we look down on our cell phones which can lead to:
❌neck pain
❌nagging, sore, and tight muscles
❌headaches
❌pinched nerves
❌numbness and tingling
❌shoulder and jaw pain
❌disc issues
❌changing of the natural shape of neck curve
❌hump on the back
❌continued poor posture can lead to
➡️➡️➡️➡️➡️➡️➡️➡️➡️➡️➡️reduced lung capacity by 30% and even has been linked to depression and anxiety.
And, this isn't limited to cell phones only. When we check our emails at our desktops or sit for extended periods of time, the same things are happening. Are you a surgeon? Dentist? Factory Worker? A cyclist 🚵‍♂️? Professions that require us to look down for extended periods - and even some leisure activities, can have the same effect.
Some things we can do now:
✔️look down with your eyes, not your neck
✔️try to keep your ears above your shoulders
✔️bring your phone up
✔️visits us....a qualified chiropractor 😀
✔️stretch your chest and strengthen your neck muscles
✔️take breaks
Please share this post and help spread awareness for this major issue! I really don't want us to all end up like Quasimodo the hunchback!

One may think that a good Chiropractic adjustment requires a lot of strength. While it does involve a strong set of hands, speed & precision are the main ingredients in correcting misplaced bones - known in the Chiropractic field as subluxations. Though our patient Wayne may tower over Dr Beth, he’s seeing great results in his treatment in our office with a combination of a variety of adjustment techniques, decompression and soft tissue work (to name a few). No matter what your stature, well-trained and focused adjustments like the ones you’ll get at the Chiropractic Loft can make the difference in getting you back to what you’ve been wishing you could get back to doing.
