Most people think that if you don't have broken bones, you're "OK" after a car accident. Physics tells us otherwise. Any accident over 8mph (some studies show as little as 2mph!) WILL by the laws of physics and matter cause damage to soft tissues. Left untreated, the laws of crash dynamics dictate that distortion (arthritis, scar tissue formation), dysfunction (altered biomechanics), and eventually symptoms (pain) will occur, even if it takes months or years to show up. Unfortunately some of these changes can't be helped, but early intervention and treatment can help restore the vast majority of pre-accident form and function. Everyone involved in a car accident should be evaluated by a chiropractor to determine extent of biomechanical damage. A combination of manual therapies (chiropractic, massage therapy) and rehabilitative exercises (physical therapy) is the best course of care in the absence of severe trauma that requires a surgeon.

Go look at it right now.

The simulation walks through three scenarios:
A small gathering of people in a house
A bar operating at 50 percent capacity
A classroom

The takeaway here is not that life must grind to a halt and everyone must be locked down and quarantined.

The lesson is:

You can live your life so long as you are serious about following mitigation protocols—especially with regard to mask usage and ventilation.

The risk of contagion is highest in indoor spaces but can be reduced by applying all available measures to combat infection via aerosols. Here is an overview of the likelihood of infection in three everyday scenarios, based on the safety measures used and the length of exposure

What's the biggest difference between a thinly sliced strip of beef and a piece of beef jerky? Water. Now think about your muscles - what happens when they are dehydrated? Is it any wonder that we feel stiff and develop 'knots' and our joints don't move as easily?

Staying hydrated is essential for healthy joints.

A huge sector of the workplace is working from home right now. Having evaluated dozens of home workstations over the past 2 months I can tell you it's a recipe for tens of millions of both adults AND children developing chronic neck, back, wrist/carpel tunnel problems. We're just starting to see the first wave of this after only 2 months. There's nothing that will replace a chiropractic adjustment and hands-on therapies like massage, but preventing problems in the first place will reduce both disability and need for treatment. That's why I'm encouraging all of my patients who are working from home to send me pictures of their workstation at home so I can provide an ergonomic assessment and recommendations. If you're working from home, make sure to have a musculoskeletal expert provide an evaluation of your setup to avoid/limit spinal and musculoskeletal problems in the future.

7 healthy tips to manage working from home.
