Your musculoskeletal system literally supports you. 🩻 It’s only fair that you return the favor. ♥️ Eating a diet rich in calcium will protect your bones, while replacing processed foods with natural whole foods (like fruits, vegetables, fish, nuts and beans) can help control joint inflammation. 🥛🧀🍒🥕🐟

That said, there are some problems that can’t be fixed by salmon and carrots alone. 🫢 If joint pain is cramping your style, call us at 574-247-9441—or make an appointment at sbortho.com/schedule. 🎃
