Winter sports might be indoors, but they’re not easy on the body.

Basketball, wrestling, and winter training put a lot of stress on joints, muscles, and recovery — quick movements, hard floors, repetitive impact, and not much rest in between. Even when athletes feel ‘fine,’ wear and tear adds up fast during the season.

Regular care helps athletes recover better, move well, and stay ahead of small issues before they turn into bigger ones. In-season is still a good time to take care of the body.

January has a way of pushing people toward extremes — cut everything out, work out nonstop, and hope motivation lasts. Most of the time, it doesn’t.

Sustainable weight loss comes from consistency and support, not burning yourself out in the first few weeks of the year. Tirzepatide can help make that consistency easier by supporting appetite control and helping you stay on track without feeling miserable.

The goal isn’t perfection, it’s building momentum you can actually keep. And we'll help you get there.

This is cupping, and it’s one of the tools we use when an area just won’t loosen up. 😬

You’ll usually see cupping used on spots like the low back, shoulders, hips, and upper back — places that get tight from sitting, lifting, training, or just daily wear and tear.

Cupping works by lifting the tissue instead of pressing down on it. That helps increase blood flow, release tight muscles, and give irritated areas a chance to calm down and heal.

The marks fade in a few days, but the relief usually sticks around a lot longer. If stretching and rest haven’t been enough, cupping can be a really helpful next step.

When pain or tightness keeps coming back, it’s often because the tissue never fully healed in the first place. That’s why just ‘taking it easy’ sometimes isn’t enough, especially in the winter when old injuries like to flare up.

SoftWave Therapy helps stimulate healing at a deeper level by increasing blood flow and activating the body’s natural repair process. It’s a great option for stubborn pain that hasn’t responded to rest alone.

If something’s been lingering longer than it should, this might be the missing piece.

Most people think adjustments are only for pain... but a lot of the reason people stay consistent is because of everything else they notice along the way.

👉 Better movement.
👉 Less tension.
👉 Fewer flare-ups.

Adjustments aren’t just about fixing what hurts — they’re about keeping your body working the way it should so little things don’t turn into big ones.

Shoveling snow without warming up is a bold move... and your spine definitely has opinions about it.

Cold muscles, heavy snow, awkward twisting… it’s the perfect recipe for a sore back if you jump right in. Take a few minutes to move, stretch, and ease into it before you grab the shovel.

And if your back still isn’t happy afterward, don’t just wait it out. We can help.

We’d consider this a love note... And honestly… it’s worth listening to. 😉

If you have a desk job, winter tends to make everything feel worse. More sitting, less movement, colder temps... and suddenly your neck, back, and shoulders are all talking.

A few things that actually help:

👉 Stand up and move for a minute every 30–45 minutes.
👉 Stretch your neck, back, and hips a few times throughout the day.
👉 Drink water regularly — dehydration makes muscles tighter than you think.
👉 Adjust your screen and chair so you’re not constantly craning your neck.
👉 Don’t wait until pain becomes your normal before getting checked.

You can’t eliminate sitting, but you can help your body handle it better.

If old aches or injuries suddenly feel louder in January, you’re not imagining it.

Cold weather, less movement, and increased inflammation all make it easier for past injuries to flare back up — even ones you thought were handled. That shoulder, knee, or back issue from months (or years) ago tends to remind you it still exists this time of year.

SoftWave Therapy helps stimulate healing at a deeper level, especially for tissue that hasn’t fully recovered on its own. If something’s been lingering or keeps coming back every winter, this is a great time to address it instead of pushing through.

Most people don’t come in saying, ‘Hello, I’d like Phase 2 chiropractic care today.’

They come in saying things like:
‘I slept wrong.’
‘I tweaked something.’
‘I don’t know what I did, but I regret it.’

Some people need relief.
Some focus on correcting movement issues or stiffness that’s been building over time.
Others stay consistent because they’ve learned it’s easier to maintain feeling good than start over every few months.

No matter what phase you’re in, you’re in the right place. 💪

Don’t be like this guy.
Or at least… don’t shovel like this guy. 😬

Cold muscles, a rounded back, and a heavy shovel is how a quick driveway clean turns into back pain that hangs around way too long.

Warm up first. Use your legs. Take breaks. And if your back still isn’t happy afterward — that’s where we come in.

Athletes don’t just wake up sore — they earn it. Training hard is part of the deal. Feeling broken all the time doesn’t have to be.

Chiropractic care helps you stay healthier, recover quicker, and keep your body working with you instead of against you. Because training smarter beats pushing through pain every time.

If you care about how you perform, you should care about how you move.
