Exercise & Nutrition
Exercise & Nutritional Counseling
Learning how to use your body properly is an essential part of the chiropractic approach to health. Throughout your chiropractic care, you will be instructed in a customized exercise and nutrition program for your individual needs. This program will become an integral part, not only of getting well, but of staying well.
Exercise and Chiropractic Care
Exercise is essential to keeping your body strong, healthy, and functioning optimally. It strengthens and builds supportive muscles while improving your flexibility, posture, circulation, range of motion, and even digestion. With regular exercise, you can help prevent pain from starting to begin with.
In addition to chiropractic care, add workouts to your regimen that strengthen your neck and shoulder muscles, which can help prevent chronic neck pain. Exercises such as one-arm rows, dumbbell shrugs, reverse flys, upright rows, and lateral raises target those muscle groups and reduce pain. We will be happy to provide you with an exercise plan customized to your needs.
Nutrition and Chiropractic Care
As chiropractors, we take a holistic approach to healing. It is our goal to improve your overall quality of life, along with alleviating any pain you are dealing with. For this reason, proper nutrition is a key element to your treatment plan, as it can help improve your overall health and wellness.
When we consume a diet of empty calories, we feel it in more than just our stomachs. We become slow, tired, achy, and have general feelings of being unwell. Even more serious than that is the whole slew of health issues that can stem from a poor diet: heart disease, diabetes, obesity, and more.
A nutrient-rich diet provides the body with everything it needs to function optimally, which means more energy and less pain. Depending on the issues you are experiencing, a diet change can improve your symptoms. Along with proper diet, nutritional supplements can also be used to ensure you are receiving the essential vitamins and minerals the body needs to function properly. Supporting your chiropractic treatments with a proper diet will allow your body to be more receptive to treatments and create a solid foundation for healing.
