The REAL New Year


It’s that time of year again!  It’s time for those gym memberships to spike and 24hour fitness stocks to rise.  You did know that losing weight/starting to workout is one of the most common New Year’s Resolutions, right?  Just do a Google search for “Top New Year’s Resolutions” and it’s probably on every single list.   Other common resolutions include reducing stress, getting more sleep, and just to live a healthier lifestyle (all things Chiropractic can help with!) 

What’s preventing you from keeping that Resolution beyond the month of January each year?  Do your knees ache after running too much on a treadmill?  Do you throw your back out due to excessive weight training?  Or do you just feel like it’s too much and need that extra something to keep you going?  Chiropractic may be your answer. 

Chiropractic will help reduce fatigue, balance muscle groups, increase range of motion, and eliminate pain and inflammation among many other positive things.  So do your knees really ache because of a muscle imbalance in your quads and hamstrings?  Does your back go out because of a mis-aligned spinal bone?  So do you lose motivation and need a health coach along the way?


Dr. Scott and I both have a strong background in exercise and sports science in addition to Chiropractic.  We’ve both gone through formal training to help athletes and avid gym goers achieve their goals.  We are both happy to help our patients achieve much more than relieving neck and back pain.  We are here to help our patients achieve maximum wellness.

Although Chiropractic cannot simply make you lose weight, it can help you achieve that goal among other goals to live a healthier lifestyle.  Most importantly chiropractic can not only treat the aches and pains you may be dealing with, but it prevents injury and re-injury through regular Chiropractic visits.


Those of you who have experienced chiropractic you know firsthand how it can help you live a healthier life and complement your New Year’s Resolution.  For those of you that have not, please make chiropractic a part of how you will achieve your New Year’s Resolution.

Yours in Health,

Dr Bryan

Scroll no further for these fun facts about your spine

Here are some fun facts that you didn’t know about your spine -As we get older, it’s not uncommon to lose about an inch in height.  This is due to the discs in your spine wearing down and “shrinking”. -Most humans are born with 33 vertebrae (“backbones”).   However, some naturally fuse together as we grow and we end up with 26 as adults. -Both humans and giraffes have 7 cervical vertebrae (neck bones).  However, a giraffe’s neck is about as long as a full grown human is tall. -A newborn human spine is C-shaped.  The S-shape develops as the baby learns to hold their head up, crawl, and ultimately walk.  It’s the S-Shape that allows us to walk upright with two legs. -You wake up in the morning slightly taller than when you went to bed.  This is because your discs (essentially your shock absorbers) tend to lose water throughout the day due to supporting your bodyweight.  Sleeping at night gives the discs a chance to rest, rehydrate, and thus make you taller in the morning.

Back hurting this holiday season? You may be forgetting about this one significant cause.

Oh, the holidays…. Sigh.  Remember when you were a kid and how much you looked forward to Christmas?  It seemed like it took forever to come, and when it did you were so excited for all those new toys!  Fast forward to adulthood and now it seems that Christmas arrives faster than you can prepare for it, you don’t have a 2 week Christmas Break and instead you have to work, you’re responsible financially for everything, and you have to do all the shopping/planning/coordinating/ect. Sound familiar? To some, it may seem more of a hassle than joy with all the stress that comes with the holidays. Many of you probably notice that your back or neck gets tight and starts hurting during this season due to stress.  We like to categorize stress into three groups: physical, chemical, and emotional.  Physical stress is usually obvious; like lifting the Christmas tree or going up and down on the ladder all day to put up lights. Chemical stress is also noticeable this time of year: cookies, candy,
