Does coffee help or hurt migraines? The answer might surprise you. ☕️

A new study found that regular coffee drinkers may have a lower risk of developing migraines. Certain compounds in coffee may help protect against migraine attacks.

But here’s the catch. If you suddenly stop drinking coffee or have too much, it can temporarily trigger headaches for some people. That’s why the coffee–migraine connection has been so confusing.

The bottom line? For many people, coffee in moderation might be part of the solution, not the problem.

Learning how your daily habits affect your symptoms can make a real difference if you have recurring headaches or migraines.

Sitting too long can do more than cause stiffness—it can impact blood sugar too. 🪑🩸

A recent study found that short movement breaks every 45 minutes, like a 3-minute walk or a few squats, help control blood sugar better than one long walk.

The key: regular movement throughout the day supports your muscles, joints, heart, and even your metabolism. 🏃‍♀️‍➡️

If you sit for long periods, we can help you build easy ways to stay active and protect your health. Schedule an appointment today! 🗓️

Rotator cuff injuries are one of the most common causes of shoulder pain.

They can make simple tasks like lifting, reaching, or sleeping uncomfortable. Recovery often requires more than rest.

Research shows that combining hands-on treatment with targeted exercises can help reduce pain and improve shoulder function better than exercise alone. 💡

If you’ve been struggling with ongoing shoulder pain, there are effective options to help you move more freely and get back to your normal activities.

Struggling with jaw pain, teeth grinding, or tension headaches? Your neck may be playing a bigger role than you realize.

New research shows that when the neck muscles become tired, they can affect how the jaw muscles work. This can make the jaw more sensitive, limit how far you can open your mouth, and increase strain on the muscles you use to chew.

That means treating the jaw alone may not be enough. Addressing neck tension can be key to lasting relief.

If you’ve been experiencing jaw discomfort or grinding, we can help by examining the bigger picture.
