🎃 Is Your Spine Feeling Spooky? 🎃
October is here, and that means pumpkin patches, crunchy leaves, and... creaky backs?

At Rockwood Chiropractic, we love fall in Gresham—hot cider, cozy sweaters, and chiropractic care that keeps you from feeling like a crooked scarecrow. 🤸‍♂️

🍂 While you're out picking pumpkins and posing for family photos, don't forget to pick yourself too. Your back’s been carrying a lot—kids, groceries, that massive pumpkin you just had to lift without bending your knees. 👀

Here are some local pumpkin patches worth the trip (and worth the stretch!):

🎃 Oxbow Farm & Garden – A charming local spot with great pumpkins and peaceful scenery.
🌽 Plumper Pumpkin Patch & Tree Farm – Technically in Portland, but it’s a fall wonderland.
🧡 Liepold Farms – Corn mazes, cider, and pumpkin picking just east of Gresham.
🍁 The Pumpkin Patch on Sauvie Island – A classic. If you haven’t been, what are you waiting for?

Pro tip: If you do lift a 30-pound pumpkin like it’s a dumbbell… we’ll be here Monday. 😅

Stay aligned and enjoy the fall, Gresham!

🎥 Did You Know + A Local Spotlight

Did you know the Netflix film Night Always Comes (2025) includes scenes filmed right here in Gresham, Oregon? One such location is Mt. Hood Community College, which stood in for the setting of “night school” in the movie.

It’s always exciting to see our community on the big screen — reminded that the familiar places around us inspire storytelling and help bring stories to life.

At Rockwood Chiropractic, we believe in building strength, healing, and restoring wellness — much like the way film brings unseen parts of our world into view.

On this day, we pause to remember.

May we carry forward the lessons of unity, compassion, and resilience. We will never forget. 🇺🇸

☀️ The heat wave is finally easing up!

Gresham’s temps are cooling into the mid-80s this week—so much nicer than what we’ve seen nearby in Portland’s hottest days on record:

🌡️ 116 °F – June 28, 2021

🌡️ 112 °F – June 27, 2021

🌡️ 112 °F – June 29, 2021

Compared to those scorchers, this week is practically a breeze. 😅

But here’s the thing: even when the heat goes away, tension in your back and neck can stick around. That’s where we come in. 💆‍♂️

Stay cool, stay hydrated, and let Rockwood Chiropractic help you feel as relaxed as this weather finally does.

Did you know Gresham was named after Walter Q. Gresham, a U.S. Postmaster General? 📬
Talk about a fun piece of local history—before it was Gresham, the area was just called Camp Ground.

Just like Gresham got a stronger name, you deserve a stronger back. 💪
At Rockwood Chiropractic, we help you feel aligned so you can enjoy all that local history (and maybe even carry your mail without wincing 😉).

Apparently, it’s National Relaxation Day! 🛋️ Who knew?
If your back and neck are screaming louder than your kids on summer break… maybe it’s time to let us help you celebrate.
A good adjustment = instant relaxation.

Come see us, then go enjoy Gresham’s parks and trails without the aches. 🌿

Happy National Son & Daughter Day! To the kids who turn couches into obstacle courses and parents into piggyback champs—we see you. 💪
Quick back-saver: bend your knees, keep kids close, and switch sides when carrying.

🏞 From Farming Roots to a Thriving Community
Back in the late 1800s, Gresham was a small farming town known for its dairy farms, berries, and—you guessed it—strawberries. In fact, Gresham was once famous for its annual strawberry festival, drawing visitors from all over Oregon.

Today, our community has grown into a vibrant city, but it’s still got that close-knit, neighborly feel. We love calling it home.

Question: If you could bring back one tradition from Gresham’s past, what would it be?

What’s your favorite hiking spot around Gresham or the Gorge?
Share your go-to trail (and a photo if you have one!) in the comments. 📸
