☀️ Staying cool during a heatwave helps more than just comfort. It can protect your health.

A new study shows that using a fan and drinking cold water is the best way to cool down in hot, humid weather.

While a fan alone helps, it can also lead to dehydration. Combining airflow and hydration lowers body temperature, eases heart strain, and helps you feel better.

If you spend time outside or work in hot settings, check out this infographic on key ways to stay hydrated! https://bit.ly/2V0oyyU

💥 Sore on the outside of your hip? It could be gluteal tendinopathy, a common cause of hip pain.

A new study looked at hip scans from people with this condition and found:

✅ Many had changes in more than one tendon
✅ Some had small or large tears
✅ Others had calcium buildup near the bone

The way the hip looked on the scan did not match the amount of pain or trouble they had. This means that what shows up on an MRI does not always explain how you feel.

Treatment focused on movement and strength can help you feel better, no matter what the scan says. Check out this infographic for more information. https://bit.ly/3CXm0D3

🖐️ Tingling, numbness, or weakness in your hand or wrist?

It could be carpal tunnel syndrome, which is often caused by repetitive motion, poor wrist position, or nerve irritation.

Chiropractic care can help by improving joint mobility, reducing tension, and guiding you through wrist-friendly movement habits.

🧠 Did you know that taking care of your heart may also protect your brain?

A 33-year study found that up to 44% of dementia cases by age 80 were linked to common and changeable risk factors like:

✔️ High blood pressure

✔️ Smoking

The good news is that these are things we can work on. By keeping your blood sugar and blood pressure in check, staying active, and avoiding smoking, you can lower your risk for both heart disease and dementia.

At our clinic, we focus on whole-body health. Whether you need help getting moving, managing stress, or staying active as you age, we’re here for you. Give us a call today!

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!

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! 🗓️

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.

Want better sleep and less pain? We’ll help you optimize your spinal function for a better night’s rest. 💤

Low back pain from a disc herniation? Your piriformis muscle might be involved, too.

The piriformis is a deep muscle in the buttock that helps rotate the hip and stabilize the pelvis. The muscle overlies the sciatic nerve and can sometimes compress it.

A new study found that people with a herniated disc often have a thicker piriformis muscle, possibly due to inflammation or compensation.

That’s why it’s important to assess more than just the spine. Muscle imbalances can play a significant role in pain and movement. Call us today to book a consultation! 📞\
