Chiropractic care can help you reduce pain, increase mobility, and catch more Zzz's 😴

Researchers recommend sleeping for 7-9 hours per night. Even small deficits can pose problems like decreased athleticism, diminished brain function, increased inflammation, and a greater likelihood to get sick; sleeping only 6 hours per night makes you four times more likely to catch a cold when compared to sleeping 7 or more hours. Follow these additional tips for better sleep:

⏰Limit screen time before retiring- the blue light emitted from computer monitors, phones, and TVs can limit melatonin production and adversely affect sleep. Try reading from a book or magazine instead.

⏰Ideally, eat your last meal 3-4 hours before bedtime and especially limit heavy, spicy or high-fat foods. Reduce fluid intake before bedtime to minimize bathroom breaks. Limit caffeine in the afternoon and evening- caffeine has a half-life of 6-9 hours and can keep you awake long after the last sip.

⏰Stick to a sleep schedule, try to retire and arise at the same time each day, including weekends.

⏰Sleep on a comfortable mattress and pillow. Need tips to improve sleep posture- Ask for more info at your next appointment.

Stay Sharp on the Ice: 3 Essential Stretches for Hockey Players 🏒

Here in the upper Midwest, hockey isn't just a sport—it's a way of life. From early morning practices to weekend tournaments, we know how much dedication hockey families pour into the game.

To help your athlete stay healthy and perform their best, the team at Plains Chiropractic & Acupuncture has put together three essential stretches that every hockey player should have in their playbook:

1. The Hip Flexor Lunge

2. The "90/90" Hip Stretch

3. Thoracic Rotation

Stretching is a vital part of an athlete's routine, and chiropractic care can help maximize mobility. By ensuring the joints in the spine and hips are properly aligned and moving freely, we help your player get the most out of every stretch. Proper alignment can lead to improved mobility, better balance, and a more powerful shot on the ice.

Think of it as a tune-up for your body's frame, helping you prevent injuries before they happen.

Ready to help your athlete play with more power and less pain?

Call Plains Chiropractic & Acupuncture at 701-775-1034 or Request An Appointment online, to schedule a consultation today!

We really didn't want to revisit this topic, but here's your snow day reminder:

Shovel Smarter, Not Harder! 🚨

❄️Choose the Right Shovel:
Opt for a lightweight shovel with an
ergonomic design to reduce strain on your
body, making the shoveling process more
efficient and less physically demanding

❄️Check Your Posture:
Maintain a straight back, shoulder-width
apart feet, and bend your knees while
shoveling. Avoid twisting your torso to
prevent back injuries and strain.

❄️Lift Correctly:
Lift the snow using your legs, squatting with
knees bent, back straight, and engaging
your abdominal muscles to avoid using
your back.
