    Category: Newsletter Library, Injury Rehab & Prevention

    Parties. Gift shopping. Family gatherings. Curling up to watch a favorite movie on the couch…. The holiday season is full of reasons for good cheer.

  • Improve Your Golf Game & Save Your Back
    Category: Newsletter Library, Injury Rehab & Prevention

    Many avid golfers contort their bodies into oddly twisted postures, generating a great deal of torque. Couple this motion with a bent-over stance, repeat 120 times over three or four hours, add the fatigue that comes with several miles of walking, and you've got a good workout-and a recipe for potential

  • Effectiveness & Popularity of Chiropractic Care
    Category: Newsletter Library, Injury Rehab & Prevention

    A critical mass of recent surveys and studies document the fact that the public, and conventional health care providers and payers, have come to recognize that traditional medicine can't answer all of consumers' health care needs.

  • The Mysteries of Injuries
    Category: Newsletter Library, Injury Rehab & Prevention

    A person with an exercise- or sports-related injury has many questions: When can I start exercising? When can I get back to my sport? What can I do to prevent this from happening again?

  • Drivers Education
    Category: Newsletter Library, Injury Rehab & Prevention

    We all know someone who has suffered a serious driving-related injury that had nothing to do with being involved in a motor vehicle accident. For example, turning your head suddenly and swiftly for a last minute check of your "blind spot" before changing lanes on the interstate could result in a painful

  • Heavy Lifting
    Category: Newsletter Library, Injury Rehab & Prevention

    All of us who’ve experienced a back injury of one sort or another have been told at some point to “avoid heavy lifting.” That type of advice appears to be a no-brainer or at least redundant, as no one whose back is hurting is going to try to pick up an air conditioner or even a 100-foot reel of

  • Pull Weeds, Not Your Back!
    Category: Newsletter Library, Injury Rehab & Prevention

    As springtime approaches, weather warms up and leaves turn green, many people will spend more time outside planting bulbs, mowing the lawn and pulling weeds. Gardening can provide a great workout, but with all the bending, twisting, reaching and pulling, your body may not be ready for exercise of the

  • Repairing an Injured Rotator Cuff
    Category: Newsletter Library, Injury Rehab & Prevention

    As we get older, rotator cuff injuries become more common, a result of the natural aging process. A similar mechanism operates in the discs separating the vertebras in your lower back. These cartilaginous structures lose water over time, becoming less flexible and more brittle as the decades roll by.

  • Shouldering the Load
    Category: Newsletter Library, Injury Rehab & Prevention

    As with much in life that we take for granted, we are not usually concerned with the mechanisms of how our bodies work and how they do what they do.

  • Strong Bones and Core Strengthening - Good Tips for a Healthy Lower Back
    Category: Newsletter Library, Injury Rehab & Prevention

    Strong bones are important for all of us, not only for the aging baby boomers about whom we're hearing so much lately.

  • Ten Tips for Smart Stretching
    Category: Newsletter Library, Injury Rehab & Prevention

    1. Why stretch? Stretching lengthens muscles and improves flexibility. Also, stretching the big leg muscles - the hamstrings, calves, and quads - simultaneously loosens and lengthens the muscles of your lower back. So, when you stretch, you're helping your back! 2.

  • Tennis, Anyone?
    Category: Newsletter Library, Injury Rehab & Prevention

    Repetitive stress injuries are typically very difficult to treat successfully. These injuries are the result of actions done repeatedly, frequently, and consistently over time.

  • The Common Core
    Category: Newsletter Library, Injury Rehab & Prevention
