MYTH-BUSTING MONDAY 🔍
“Once you go to a chiropractor, you always have to go.”

Our job is to support your goals — whether that’s pain relief, maintenance, or performance.

👨‍⚕️ As Dr. Russo always says:

For athletes, ego can be the silent opponent that leads to injury.
Pushing through pain, skipping warm-ups, or chasing PRs without proper form often results in strains, sprains, or worse. Chiropractic care can help correct imbalances and improve performance—but the smartest move is injury prevention. Train with intention, not ego. Longevity is the real win

What is Sciatica?
If you’ve ever felt burning, tingling, or shooting pain from your low back down your leg, you might be dealing with sciatica. It’s caused by irritation or compression of the sciatic nerve—the largest nerve in the body.

Common symptoms include:
• Burning or numbness
• Shooting pain down the leg
• Weakness in the foot or leg
Left untreated, sciatica can affect your ability to move comfortably and perform daily activities.

What causes it?
Sciatica can stem from:
• A herniated disc
• Piriformis syndrome
• Spinal stenosis
These issues place pressure on the nerve roots in the lower spine, triggering pain and dysfunction.

How chiropractic care helps:
At , we focus on gentle, targeted adjustments to:
• Reduce nerve compression
• Alleviate inflammation
• Improve spinal mobility
This natural approach helps restore function and relieve pain—without medications or surgery.

Don’t let sciatica slow you down.
Save this post to refer back later and share it with someone who needs relief.
Book with Dr. Russo today and start feeling better, naturally.

PSA from Dr. Russo:
Your chest should NOT be drifting forward during a squat!

If it is, your form might be off — and that can lead to strain on your lower back, knees, or hips. Squats should be powerful, safe, and effective!

Tips to improve your squat:
• Keep your chest proud and core engaged
• Hinge at your hips, not your spine
• Strengthen your glutes and mid-back muscles

Need help with form or pain during squats? Let’s get to the root of it. Book a consult with Dr. Russo today!
