Stress doesn’t just mess with your mind—it tightens your muscles, too. At Back and Body Medical, we take a whole-body approach to stress relief that blends chiropractic, physical therapy, and relaxation techniques:

🌬️ Breathe deeply. Five deep breaths, twice a day. Four seconds in, six out. It’s a simple yet powerful way to reduce muscle tension.

🌳 Touch grass—literally. Ten minutes outside helps reset your nervous system and relax your muscles. NYC’s parks are a great place to start.

🤸 Move gently. A short morning walk or light stretch releases tension and clears your head. Pair that with a chiropractic adjustment, and you’ll feel the difference.

Strong muscles = less low back pain ✅

A new study with over 10,000 people found that strong muscles reduced the chances of experiencing low back pain.

Interestingly, they measured hand grip strength… not even the back muscles! 💪

So, the stronger you are, the less your chances of experiencing low back pain!

After a car accident, chiropractic patients often face neck pain, back stiffness, or headaches, yet many delay care, unaware that chiropractic treatment may be covered. These symptoms can worsen, limiting July activities like travel or outdoor fun. At Back and Body Medical, we help patients understand their options, offering comprehensive auto injury care right here in Midtown Manhattan.

To address these issues, seek a chiropractic evaluation promptly. Early assessments identify injuries, ensuring timely relief for tasks like working or driving. Our team works with insurance providers to help patients access the care they need without delay.

Document symptoms daily to support your care plan. Note pain levels or mobility issues in a journal, helping your chiropractor tailor treatments. This simple step enhances recovery, making daily activities easier. We encourage every patient to stay engaged in their healing process.

Practice gentle stretches as recommended. Five-minute neck or shoulder stretches each morning improve flexibility, supporting summer plans. Our chiropractors at Back and Body Medical teach techniques that blend safety with comfort—supporting full recovery and a pain-free season.

Chronic pain doesn’t just affect your body; it can reshape how your brain responds to pain and stress. 🧠

Chronic pain and stress go hand in hand, and new research shows they can actually rewire your brain. The longer they stick around, the more they fuel each other. That’s why treating pain isn’t just about the body; it’s also about calming the mind and retraining how your brain handles pain.

If you feel stuck in the pain cycle, we’re here to help you find a new path forward. Book an appointment today! 🗓️

Long car or plane rides in July often lead to back stiffness and discomfort, making travel less enjoyable. Poor posture and prolonged sitting can strain your spine, causing aches that linger. At Back and Body Medical, we help travelers prepare for and recover from summer trips with chiropractic care, physical therapy, and personalized support right in Midtown Manhattan.

To protect your spine, adjust your seat for support. Use a rolled towel at your lower back and keep knees at hip level to maintain alignment. This simple setup eases pressure, making long trips more comfortable. We guide patients to optimize seating for travel.

Take movement breaks every hour. Stand, stretch, or walk for five minutes during stops or layovers to loosen your back. These quick pauses boost circulation, helping you arrive refreshed. Our physical therapists teach easy stretches to do on the go.

Strengthen your core before your trip. Do 10-minute daily exercises like planks to stabilize your spine. A stronger core supports better posture, reducing strain. At Back and Body Medical, we help patients build these habits before takeoff for lasting travel comfort.

As we reach the halfway point of the year, many patients begin to reflect on how their body feels compared to January. Stiffness, new aches, or a lack of energy may have slowly developed as life got busy and routines changed.

Now is an ideal time to check in on spinal health. A mid-year adjustment can help restore alignment, improve movement, and support overall wellness. At Back and Body Medical, our multi-specialty team views these tune-ups as a way to keep your momentum strong for the rest of the year. Staying aligned supports everything else you want to do.

Waking up with back pain? Your sleep position might be the reason. 😴

New research shows that sleeping on your back or in a supported side position can help reduce low back pain. But sleeping on your stomach? In some cases, that can make it worse.

Check out this infographic for the ultimate sleep positions for a better back.

Poolside emails and patio Zoom calls sound great—until your back starts barking. At Back and Body Medical, we help remote workers maintain spinal health during those tempting outdoor work sessions:

⏱️ Move every 30 minutes. Quick posture resets reduce tension and improve energy. We help patients build healthy habits around movement and posture.

💪 Engage your core. Lightly tighten those abs while seated to support your back. Feeling stiff? Let’s fix that with a focused adjustment or therapeutic stretch session right here in Midtown.
