Great! Keep reading... Let's face it, "good posture" is something we all strive for, but it's hard when routine activities throughout everyday life can put a strain on our posture. Things such as stress caused by working from home, fatigued muscles form the latest DIY project, the hours spent sitting slouched over gaming with the squad, and even our shoes, impact our body's ability to achieve and maintain good posture.

Millions of Americans have not only found relief from back pain with chiropractic, but have also found it to be a natural drug-free approach to healthcare. The 24 independent vertebrae in your spinal column allow your body to move, bend and twist during various daily activities.

This is why the first step to an active lifestyle is a...

Yet many people pay little attention to shoulder health until it isn't working like it is supposed to. Taking shirts on or off, reaching up overhead for a glass, sitting at your desk while reaching behind you to grab something off a shelf, or perhaps putting your hand on the back of the passenger...

There simply has to be a better way to help calm your immune system and be a little less miserable, right? The good news is that yes,...
Hi. I'm Dr. Brown, and I want to be your chiropractor. Most people come to the chiropractor when they are in pain, usually back pain, neck pain, headache or a similar symptom. That is like waiting to go to the dentist until you have a toothache. By then it is too late; you missed the chance to prevent decay and the resulting pain.
