Heel pain holding you back? 👣

Plantar fasciitis is one of the most common causes of heel pain. It affects people who are on their feet for long periods or who increase their activity too quickly (like runners).

Chiropractic care can help by addressing problems in the feet, ankles, or even lower back that may contribute to excess strain on the plantar fascia. 🦶

Did you pull a hammy? 🦵

Hamstring strains are common with running. This is because the hamstrings must slow down the leg as it swings.

When it comes to prevention and returning to sport, the Nordic hamstring curl is the go-to exercise for helping strengthen the hamstrings. However, if the Nordic hamstring curl is too difficult, there are other exercises that we recommend to help!

Did you know your body composition is crucial to back health as you age? 💡

A recent study found that men over 60 with higher muscle mass experienced less back pain and disability over 10 years. On the other hand, gaining just 7 pounds in 5 years increased the risk of back pain-related disability.

Strength training to build lean muscle and maintaining a healthy weight are essential for keeping your back strong and pain-free as you age! 🙌 Check out this infographic for more tips on healthy exercise! https://bit.ly/3kbu22X

Could low back pain during pregnancy increase the risk of falling? 🤰
