Valentine’s Day is here, so now is the perfect time to talk about giving your spine some love! It might sound strange, but showing your spine a little love can go a long way.

This Valentine’s Day, we want you to love yourself by making even just one of the following changes. Once that small change has become habit, you can add another one to your lifestyle until you are doing everything you can to keep your spine healthy. Here are our suggestions:

Love your spine by maintaining an active lifestyle.

Exercise and activity are an essential element in living a healthy life. We know that an active spine is a healthy one, and it is important to stretch and strengthen your spine regularly. It can be challenging to exercise when you are in pain, but to maintain true health, you’ve got to get yourself moving.

Love your spine by using your mind.

Mindful meditation has been proven to help those suffering from chronic pain, A recent study even found that over the course of 8-week treatment sessions, participants who engaged in mind-body therapy showed improved pain scores. You can find relief in as little time as 15 minutes per day!

Love your spine by maintaining proper posture.

If you have poor posture, we’re certain you will experience back pain. What’s worse is that over time, poor posture can change the anatomical structure of your spine. Your spine’s health depends on proper posture.

Love your spine by eating healthy.

A healthy diet is a key component in maintaining a healthy spine. The nutrients we eat from whole and healthy foods help support a strong and optimally functioning musculoskeletal system. Additionally, a balanced diet will help you maintain a healthy weight, keeping unnecessary stress off the spine.

Love your spine by evaluating your sleeping position.

Good, restful sleep is much needed if you want to maintain good health. If you are suffering from pain, you might find it difficult to fall and stay asleep. Fortunately, chiropractic care can help with sleep issues.

These are just a few suggestions to show your spine some love this Valentine’s Day. How will you take care of your spine this year? Let us know in the comments!

Patient Reviews

"I was experiencing a lot of pain in my feet following the birth of my son. I was diagnosed with plantar fasciitis in both feet. After seeing my PCP and being prescribed anti-inflammatory medication, I looked into the benefits of Chiropractic care. I was in so much pain from the plantar fasciitis that is because difficult for me to walk. I was unable to carry my newborn and walk because I was concerned for his safety. As part of my care plan, custom orthotics were recommended. Within days of receiving my orthotics I had a reduction in my pain. Regular Chiropractic visits and my orthotics have allowed me to be able to care for my son again!"

- Erica Payne

"I worked for Wal-Mart for 20 years walking on hard floors 10 hours a day. I felt a horrible pain in my right hip/buttocks area and could not bend or walk. My sister did a little research and recommended Healthy Life Chiropractic- They do EVERYTHING! After the first treatment, the pain was gone! After being educated on my problems, they worked on my whole body and it feels 100% better. I have never been a good sleeper, but I am sleeping much better and get up in the morning ready to go! I have never felt better!"

- Michael Chambers

"My daughter came in to see Dr. Rob for possible curve in her spine. She was officially diagnosed with scoliosis after her evaluation. As parents, we were having a hard time wrapping out heads around what that meant for our beautiful 8 year old girl. Dr. Rob, Dr. Tina, and the whole staff at Healthy Life Chiropractic have been phenomenal! After 2 months of treatment- regular adjustments and exercises- we are seeing a huge improvement! Her hips are aligned now, her feet meet properly, and she is feeling better all around. We haven’t retaken her x-rays yet- not until we’ve done treatment for a whole year- but based off our experience, and results we’ve seen so far, I am confident that her curve has not gotten worse and has probably even improved!"

- Margaret Wearne

"I began my chiropractic care in October 2017 because of increased pain and decreased mobility in my left hip that had gotten increasingly worse over the previous 4-5 months. I love that I have been able benefit from whole body treatment that in turn has almost completely taken away the issues I was experiencing with my hip. I am so grateful for feeling good again and I highly recommend Healthy Life for your chiropractic care and total life wellness."

“The online store is wonderful. It is very convenient for those busy and always on the go. I love all the purchase options. From supplements to oils and even honey can be purchased from your computer or smart phone. I look forward to a search option becoming available as there are so many products offered.”

–Vermillion Himes

"I have been a patient at Healthy Life Chiropractic for over 3 years! After driving several hundred miles a week and spending time on the computer for work, I not only get regular adjustments, I utilize the massage therapists as well. I've recently begun using, with success, Standard Process supplements and Doterra Essential Oils. I appreciate the holistic approach to care by all of the staff at Healthy Life!"

-Debbie Fambro

"I have been coming to Healthy Life Chiropractic for over a year now. The treatments I receive give me such a relief of stress. The personnel is a big part of my relief. They are terrific and very professional. Dr. Tina is very educated in her field. Between treatments and supplements, I am feeling much better. I would, and have, recommend Dr. Tina to my friends."
