Hands falling asleep while typing? ⌨️
It could be carpal tunnel syndrome, caused by compression of the nerve in your wrist, often from prolonged computer use.
Recent research confirms that hands-on therapy is one of the most effective methods for reducing numbness and tingling. 🙌 Which is what we offer at our clinic!

Feeling dizzy after a car accident? 🚗💥
It could be a concussion, whiplash, or something often missed: BPPV (benign paroxysmal positional vertigo). BPPV happens when tiny crystals in your inner ear shift, causing dizziness.
That’s why a full exam after an accident is so important, so nothing gets overlooked! ✅

Thumb or wrist pain? 📱 Your phone might be to blame.
Too much scrolling or repetitive hand movements can irritate the tendons near your thumb and wrist, leading to a condition called de Quervain’s tenosynovitis. This can make gripping, texting, or even holding objects uncomfortable or painful.
Chiropractic care, combined with targeted stretches and activity modifications, can often help reduce irritation, relieve pain, and restore proper function. 🙌

Neck pain doesn’t always start in your neck—it can actually come from stiffness in your midback. 💥 When your midback is tight, it can put extra stress on your neck, leading to discomfort, tension, and reduced range of motion.
Chiropractic adjustments help improve mobility, relieve tension, and restore proper alignment, allowing you to move freely and feel better. 🙌

Feeling numbness or tingling in your hands or feet? ✋🦶
This can sometimes result from irritated nerves in your spine, which are caused by poor posture, injury, or everyday wear and tear. When nerves are irritated, it can lead to discomfort, weakness, or a “pins and needles” sensation.
Chiropractic adjustments help alleviate that irritation, restore proper nerve function, reduce pain, and enhance your overall mobility. 💪
Don’t wait, book an appointment today to start feeling better!

Heel pain with every step? 👣⚡
Plantar fasciitis—irritation of the thick band of tissue on the bottom of your foot—is one of the most common causes of heel pain. It can make walking, running, or even standing feel painful.
The good news: chiropractic care can help! With foot and ankle adjustments, soft tissue therapy, and guided rehab exercises, we can reduce pain and improve mobility so you can move comfortably again. 🏃♀️
What’s the best exercise combo for older adults with back pain? 💡
A study found that trunk muscle strengthening helps, but combining it with aerobic exercise delivers bigger wins—less pain, better function, lower fall risk, and improved mood.
So, resistance exercise builds stability, but moving your heart amplifies results, too. Call our office today so we can help you get started! 📞
