🇺🇸 ASC is Proud to Support Veterans 💪

Last weekend, Dr. Brad Bartel, D.C. and Advanced Spinal Care, had the honor of attending VetFest 2025 at Joker Marchant Stadium — an event led by Congressman Scott Franklin, a U.S. Navy veteran and strong advocate for those who served.

VetFest brings together veterans and their families with vital resources, support, and care — something ASC is proud to be a part of. As a VA Community Care provider, ASC helps veterans access chiropractic, massage, and wellness services close to home in Lakeland.

We are grateful to stand alongside leaders like Congressman Franklin and to serve the incredible men and women who’ve given so much for our country. 🇺🇸

If you are a veteran, or know a veteran who could use our help, contact ASC today. We’d be honored to support you on your wellness journey.

📱Straighten Up: Don’t Let Tech Be a Pain in the Neck

Back-to-school also means more screen time—and that can mean more strain.
From homework on laptops to endless scrolling on phones, students (and adults) are spending more time hunched over screens than ever.

This can lead to:

❎ Stiff neck
❎ Upper back pain
❎ Headaches
❎ “Tech neck” posture

📏 ASC offers chiropractic adjustments and massage therapy to relieve tension, restore alignment, and teach smart posture habits that stick.

✨ Whether you're a student or a working professional, let’s get your spine back on track before the pain becomes a problem.

🎒Back to school means back to backpacks!🎒

Heavy bags and poor posture can take a toll on growing spines—especially when they’re slung over one shoulder or packed beyond 10-15% of a child’s body weight.

✨ Tips from ASC:
✔ Choose backpacks with padded straps & support
✔ Keep weight under 10–15% of body weight
✔ Wear both straps—not just one!
✔ Adjust straps so the backpack sits close to the back

👎 Signs of backpack strain:
✔ Rounded shoulders
✔ Complaints of neck, shoulder, or back pain
✔ Tingling in the arms or hands

✅ At ASC, we help families stay aligned—literally. Whether your student needs a posture check, spinal adjustment, or massage therapy for muscle tension, our experienced team is here to help them carry the load with less strain.

✨ Let’s set students up for a successful (and pain-free) school year! Call us today to schedule an appointment.

✔ Chiropractic care
✔ Massage therapy
✔ Non-surgical spinal decompression
