🚨 The Way Most People Do Yard Work Is DESTROYING Their Back 🚨. One bad scoop… one awkward twist and suddenly you’re dealing with spasms and pain.

Here’s the truth:

It’s not the shovel. It’s how you move.

In this video, Dr. Todd shows you the hip hinge—a simple shift that can help you:

✔️ Protect your lower back
✔️ Use more strength, less strain
✔️ Avoid injury before it happens

This isn’t about fixing pain…

It’s about preventing it.

Because if your posture and movement are off…
👉 You’re one shovel away from trouble.

Watch the video… learn the difference…
And ask yourself:

“Am I moving smarter… or setting myself up for pain?” 💥

Now, if you have already "thrown your back out" or something goes wrong this weekend while your working in the yard, do not hesitate to call us! We're here to help!

Watch closely. In this video, Dr. Beau Warlick—a trusted instructor at Gonstead seminars—is adjusting Dr. Todd Pickman… and what you’re seeing is NOT your typical “rack ‘em and crack ‘em” chiropractic.

To the untrained eye, it might look simple. Some patients even think chiropractors are just “twisting the neck.” And to be honest, your typical chiropractor does, but here at GSW, we are not your typical chiropractors.

What Dr. Warlick is doing here is highly methodical… calculated… and precise.

Because in the Gonstead technique, there is NO twisting of the spine.

In fact, there are levels of precision within the technique itself—and Dr. Warlick is known for being a stickler when it comes to doing it right.

Why?

Because precision is what produces results.

There’s an old saying in chiropractic:

“80% of patients would get better if you hit them in the butt with a snow shovel… it’s what you do with the other 20% that makes you a chiropractor.”

Here’s the difference…

Dr. Warlick and Dr. Pickman don’t guess who that 20% is.

They treat every single patient as if they are.

That means:
• No shortcuts
• No guesswork
• No random adjustments

Just specific, targeted corrections designed to address the root cause—and help the body actually hold the correction.

Because when it’s done right…

You don’t just feel better for a day.

You get lasting results.

👉 Watch the video and see the difference for yourself.

Meet our rockstar front desk manager, Jessica! If you’ve ever walked into Gonstead Spine & Wellness and been greeted with laughter and joy, you can thank her for that. She’s a blessing to our office, and today, she’s on the receiving end of care—getting her C2 vertebra adjusted by Dr. Beau Warlick in a seated Gonstead adjustment.

Now, why C2? The C2 vertebra plays a key role in head rotation and can impact overall nervous system function. With precise Gonstead adjustments, we gently restore alignment without any twisting—just pure precision.

And for a fun bit of GSW trivia—did you know Jessica was once a mascot for a the Linfield Lions, a Christian School in her past life? She’s always had that team spirit!

Cheers to Jessica, on and off the adjusting chair!

Hey everyone, Dr. Todd here! Ever seen a chiropractor sew? Well, here I am spending my Saturday night stitching together head traction units! Why? Because we’re serious about spinal correction.

Restoring the proper curve in the neck is about improving your nervous system function. When your spine is aligned, your body communicates better, heals better, and functions at its best.

We use the Gonstead technique, which is all about precision. We don’t twist or guess. We analyze and adjust based on what’s exactly needed—down to the millimeter.

At our clinic, we focus on results. When a new patient starts care, we do everything we can to make sure they get the outcomes they’re after—and fast. Let’s get you feeling better, sooner!

The Cook Lift: Most people think they need to stretch their low back when it feels tight…

But what if the real problem isn’t tightness…
It’s actually weak or inactive glutes?

👉 That’s where the Cook Lift comes in.

This exercise is money because it:
✅ Activates your glutes
✅ Protects your low back
✅ Teaches your body to move the right way

⸝

🔥 How to Do the Cook Lift

1️⃣ Lie on your back
2️⃣ Pull one knee toward your chest
3️⃣ Hold that knee with both hands
4️⃣ Keep your other foot flat on the ground
5️⃣ Tighten your stomach (brace, don’t arch)
6️⃣ Drive through the heel on the ground
7️⃣ Lift your hips into a bridge
8️⃣ Hold for 2–3 seconds, then lower slowly

⸝

⚠️ Pro Tip:
If you feel this in your low back instead of your glutes… pause. Reset. Tighten your core more and drive through your heel.

⸝

This is a perfect example of what we talk about in this group:

👉 It’s not just about stretching…
👉 It’s about activating the right muscles so your body actually works the way it’s supposed to.

⸝

👇 Try 8–10 reps per side and let me know…
Where did you feel it most?

💪 Deadlift vs Squat – Do You Know the Difference? 🏋️‍♂️

Most people think “lift with your legs” covers it all… but that’s only half the story. Here’s the key:

✅ Squat → Straight up and down, vertical torso, spine stabilized.
✅ Deadlift → Hip hinge, pelvis back, controlled movement through the hips.

Too often people “squat their deadlifts” or “deadlift their squats” – and that’s where injuries happen. These are two distinct patterns that carry over into daily life. Whether you’re picking up groceries, lifting a grandchild, or moving furniture, knowing when to hinge and when to squat is essential for protecting your spine.

At Gonstead Spine & Wellness, we teach our patients these foundational movements because spinal health depends not only on adjustments, but also on learning how to move well. When you combine proper alignment with proper movement, you stay strong, mobile, and injury-free.

👉 Can you tell when you’re hinging vs squatting in your own workouts or daily life?
👉 Which movement do you find harder to master – the squat or the deadlift?

Drop your answers below ⬇️ – let’s get a conversation going!

✨ Case Study Saturday ✨

Today we’re highlighting Aziel’s story 🙌. He was struggling with upper cervical headaches that were affecting his daily life.

👉 In this video, you’ll see the use of the L-Spa device — one of the most precise ways to restore space between the skull and C1. By isolating the joint, improving range of motion, and stretching the suboccipital muscles, we address the cause, not just the symptoms.

But we don’t stop there:
🔹 Gonstead Chiropractic → the most precise way to locate and correct spinal misalignments.
🔹 Chiropractic BioPhysics® → restores proper spinal curves for long-term correction and function.
🔹 Functional Movement Corrective Exercise → retrains your body to move correctly and prevent future issues.

💡 Aziel experienced incredible relief once all three systems were applied together — showing the power of a comprehensive approach to true healing.

💬 Your turn:
• Have you ever struggled with headaches or neck tension?
• Which part of this approach makes the most sense to you?
• Do you know someone who needs to see this? Tag them below ⬇️

❓ FAQ Friday ❓
One of the most common questions we hear is:
👉 “Is Chiropractic evidence-based?”

📽️ In this week’s video, Dr. Todd dives into the research and explains how at Gonstead Spine & Wellness we utilize three of the most evidence-backed systems in healthcare:

✅ Gonstead Chiropractic – supported by ongoing research through the Gonstead Clinical Studies Society.
✅ Chiropractic BioPhysics (CBP) – the leader in peer-reviewed publications throughout the entire Chiropractic profession.
✅ Functional Movement – the science of improving movement patterns to prevent recurring injuries, enhance performance, and extend quality of life.

💬 We’d love to hear your thoughts:
• Did you know there’s this much research behind chiropractic care?
• Have you ever experienced care that focused on posture AND movement, not just pain relief?
• Do you put more weight on “evidence-based research” or RESULTS? (Our tagline is “Results Matter Most”)
