As the end of the year approaches it’s important to take a close look at your health insurance. If you’ve already paid up to your deductible, it’s a great idea to get in some health services before your deductible resets at the beginning of the coming year.

If you have any sort of extensive needs toward the end of the year, it might even be a good idea to get them done now, that way you don’t risk getting close to your annual maximum at the beginning of the year. You want to make sure that you get the coverage you need year-round.

Chiropractic adjustments are viable treatments to get during this time of year as the holiday stressful season steamrolls toward us. Chiropractic treatments are covered by many health insurance plans, and we always try to work with our patients to ensure our treatments come in at agreeable prices that fit just about any budget.

Contact us this week or next to get your adjustment in before your health care plan resets at the beginning of the year. Family Chiropractic & Spinal Health Care Center has a long track record of providing drug-free wellness treatments that get undeniable results for the entire family.

The holiday season represents a time where families come together to share gifts and appreciation for one another. Over the years, somehow the holiday season became more about trying to create that perfect picturesque experience that somehow never materializes, because, when it comes down to it, nothing is perfect.

All this gift-giving and family gathering that goes on during the holidays creates tense situations for many of us, which is why Family Chiropractic & Spinal Health Care Center would like to go over a few tips to reduce your holiday stress.

1.) Keep it Simple

Instead of having everyone you’ve ever met over for some sort of holiday gathering, just invite a few quality people that you know will help craft an amazing experience. Create a simple spread and keep the gifts you get for others from getting too elaborate and expensive. This will create a less stressful situation for you in the end.

2.) Remember to Exercise

Get your runs in and get your time at the gym in, because the holiday season is going to throw some amount of stressful craziness your way. You’ll find that you’re far more mentally fit to handle adverse situations after a great workout, which improves mood and helps reduce anxiety.

3.) See Your Local Chiropractor

Seeing your local chiropractor will help boost your mood, reduce stress and anxiety, not to mention help you achieve more restful sleep. Contact Family Chiropractic & Spinal Health Care Center today to learn more about who we are and what we can do for your health and wellness. Happy holidays!

When it comes to nutrition, sometimes it’s the simplest solutions that end up getting us the best results. Instead of committing to one strenuous diet, for some of us the best possible results come from simply eating healthier and being more conscious of what we’re putting into our bodies.

Below, Family Chiropractic & Spinal Health Care Center goes over a few simple changes you can make that will end up making a huge difference on your overall health.

Restrict Eating Times

Start waiting longer to eat your first meal and make sure you get in your final meal of the day 2 hours before you go to bed. For instance, if you go to bed at 10 pm, make sure you don’t eat past 8 pm in order to get more restful sleep. If you can eat all of your daily nutrition in an 8-hour window each day you’ll experience the many health benefits that have been linked to intermittent fasting.

Eat Smaller Meals

Try to eat 3-5 smaller meals per day instead of a couple of large ones. Overeating increases your chances of being outside your target body weight and also forces the body to spend precious energy on digestion.

Eat Clean

Start saying “no” to fast food and foods rich with processed carbs. Start cutting out sugary foods and choose dark chocolate when you’re in the sweets section of the grocery store. Eating clean, whole foods will also promote a healthier GI system.

Drug-Free Pain Relief

In today’s opioid crisis getting drug-free relief for pain that comes up in everyday life can be easier said than done. A chiropractor will never try to give you prescription drugs to solve your problem — we treat the whole individual to root out pain and discomfort for good.

Improved Cognitive Function

Chiropractic treatments offer many distinct benefits, including drug-free pain relief. Below, Family Chiropractic & Spinal Health Care Center goes over some of the ways our treatments can benefit seniors.

Increased Range of Motion

Chiropractic adjustments will loosen up muscle tension and relieve joint pain, helping you increase your range of motion.

Improved Mood

Boosted Immune System

Chiropractic treatment is not just for those who experience back or neck injuries or just for those who are advanced in age looking to optimize their body’s functionality. Young folks and children especially have a multitude of benefits to gain from seeking out chiropractic treatment, whether experiencing pain or not.

Below, Family Chiropractic & Spinal Health Care Center goes over a few ways that our treatments benefit kids of all ages.

Growing Pain Relief

Boost Cognitive Function

Chiropractic treatments have been shown to help boost brain activity. The spine is inextricably connected to your brain, communication channels to which can become disrupted due to spine misalignment. Chiropractic treatments have been shown to help boost mental clarity and focus, not to mention reduce depression and anxiety.

Enhance Sleep

It doesn’t matter if you’re a seasoned athlete, a high-powered corporate exec, or a server at a high-volume upscale restaurant, your body is going to go through wear and tear that might result in everyday pain.

Common areas for pain include your back, neck, spine, legs, and joints — all of which can benefit from chiropractic treatment.

Below, Family Chiropractic & Spinal Health Care Center goes over a few tips for back pain relief.

Build Your Back, Neck, and Core Muscle Groups

Pretty much the least fun muscles to work — your legs, core, neck, and back — are the most important to work. Make sure your fitness routine includes plenty of exercises that strengthen these key areas of the body.

Stretch/Yoga

Stretching, and, particularly yoga, both offer immense benefits when it comes to relieving tension and easing pain in the body.

Mindfulness/Breathing Exercises

Meditation, mindfulness exercises, and breathing exercises have all been shown to inspire your body’s natural pain relief capabilities.

Chiropractic treatments are also a great option for drug-free pain relief. Family Chiropractic & Spinal Health Care Center to schedule your consultation today!

Being an executive and having a hand in the day-to-day operations, not to mention having a huge say in the overall direction of your company short and long term, can bring about a lot of stress, plain and simple. Turns out, chiropractic treatments are actually an amazing countermeasure you can take against the wear and tear your body and brain experience from living the high-paced corporate lifestyle.

Below are a few problems the executive might experience and a few ways that chiropractic benefits business professionals at all stages of the game.

Daily Stress

You might have stress and anxieties that arise from your job, in which cases chiropractic treatment is an amazing, drug free solution that aligns your body, bolsters your internal systems (like your GI tract, immune system, and central nervous system), and has been shown to reduce anxiety, depression, and give you a better night of sleep.

Recovering from a Day or Week of Work

How do you recover from a stressful day or week at work? If you just go out for drinks with coworkers, this might not be getting you the best results and teeing yourself up to succeed tomorrow. Instead, do yoga, or visit your local chiropractor. Chiropractic treatments have been shown to boost energy and help the body recover properly from overuse at work.
