Today OUR profession pauses.

Dr. Guy F. Riekeman, D.C. has transitioned, and with that, a presence in chiropractic shifts form.

Guy was not casual about this work. His voice mattered. His leadership mattered. His willingness to stand in rooms and speak into this profession mattered.

Every time someone steps forward to think deeply, challenge assumptions, and advocate for chiropractic with conviction, it leaves a mark. Guy did that. He cared about where this profession was headed. He invested time, energy, and thought into it.

There’s something humbling about moments like this.

They remind us that our time here is finite.

They remind us that service is never small.

They remind us that what we build in people and in principle outlives us.

To his family, friends, colleagues, and those who were personally impacted by him — you are seen today. Our hearts are with you.

Let this be a moment where we not only honor his life, but also recommit ourselves to the calling we share. To serve at a higher level.

Rest in peace, Dr. Riekeman.

Your contribution remains.

HERE IS WHY YOUR HAMSTRINGS ARE SO TIGHT

For every muscle in your body, there is one opposite (ie for each one that pushes, there is one that pulls)

When one muscle gets used too much, it is almost like that over-bearing co-worker that shows up to work and tries to do e v e r y t h i n g, leaving you with nothing left to do. While that might seem appealing at times, for your body this begins to be a problem.

Those of us with tight hip flexors (front of hip) generally tend to have tight hamstrings as well. Here is why:

The hip flexors get short from many hours of sitting or too much work from exercise (ie bike riding, running, squatting, etc). This basically puts the glutes out of business. In that flexed hip seated position, the glutes get stretched out. This makes it hard for them to be used.

This DOESN’T MEAN that we can’t move, it just means that the brain has to figure out another way to get the job done. So the brain essentially asks the hamstrings, which are nearby the glutes to help out. Because the muscles of the butt don’t work right, the muscles of the hamstrings take over and end up doing too much.

THE END IS RESULT IS…..OVER-ACTIVITY AND TIGHTNESS.

There are moments when the truth finally breaks through the noise — and you feel the ground shift beneath your feet. This week was one of those moments.

For years, parents, scientists, and countless people paying attention have been told a story: “The science is settled. There is no link. Stop asking questions.”

And for years, many sensed something deeper — that the conversation was never as closed as officials claimed.

Now, even the CDC acknowledges that the line “vaccines do not cause autism” was not evidence-based, and the science has never ruled out a link.

That narrative wasn’t built on certainty — it was manufactured to manage public hesitancy.

And while agencies repeated slogans, families lived with the consequences. Communities carried the weight. And those who asked honest questions were dismissed or ridiculed.

But tides turn. Truth resurfaces. And courage has a way of forcing the door open.

HHS and RFK Jr. are finally moving forward with the gold-standard scientific investigation that should have been done decades ago — a full, unbiased, transparent exploration into the causes of autism, including biological mechanisms and potential vaccine links.

This isn’t about blame. It’s about integrity.

It’s about honoring the children, the families, the lived experiences, and the persistent voices who refused to stay silent.

At MILE HIGH THIRTEEN, we stand for that kind of courage.

For the agency.

For transparency.

For a world where science serves people — not politics.

When the truth moves, everything changes.

And we’re just getting started.

From Davenport to the World: Celebrating the Birth of Chiropractic

Today we honor the birth of a profession that has transformed countless lives, Chiropractic.

It all began in 1895 when Dr. D.D. Palmer performed the first chiropractic adjustment in Davenport, Iowa. His vision was simple yet revolutionary: the body has an innate ability to heal itself when interference is removed from the nervous system. That bold idea lit a spark that changed healthcare forever.

His son, Dr. B.J. Palmer, carried the torch forward, developing chiropractic into a profession rooted in science, philosophy, and art. He was relentless in his advocacy, ensuring that chiropractic would not only survive but thrive against all odds.

The Present
Today, chiropractors around the world continue to uphold that vision. Millions of people experience the benefits of chiropractic care not only for pain relief, but for improved health, performance, and quality of life. Still, too many do not yet understand the true value that chiropractic brings it’s not about chasing symptoms, it’s about restoring the body’s potential to heal and function at its best.

The Future
As we look ahead, the responsibility is on all of us to educate, inspire, and lead. Chiropractic has the power to transform lives, families, and communities across the globe. With each generation, our profession grows stronger, more united, and more essential to the health of humanity.

On this 130th Chiropractic Birthday, let’s remember our past, honor our present, and commit to a bold future. Chiropractic is more than a profession it’s a calling, a legacy, and a gift to the world. www.TheCCGroup.net
