Good Morning!

You can definitely tell that Fall is in the air!  We're excited for the beauty that is coming and hope that you get to enjoy it as well!  As we begin this new week together, we here at EC have a few bits of information we would like to share with you; to help keep you healthy and functioning at your best!

Low Back Pain and Excessive Weight

Two things that are epidemic in the U.S. are low back pain and obesity (being overweight). The two go hand-in-hand and while excessive weight may not be the only cause of your pain, it does makes matters worse by aggravating your pain through increased loading the disks of the low back. In addition, most people with low back pain or who are excessively heavy are also very inactive.

The first step is to perform movements that don't increase pain. For most people, walking can still be done. If your back hurts when you walk or you are so heavy, that walking causes your knees to ache, then you may need to start by walking in a...

Preventing Low Back Pain

Good Afternoon!

It's a great day here at Elizabethton Chiropractic!  We hope you've had an enjoyable weekend.  Fall is definitely in the air, and we hope you get to enjoy every minute of it.  We have a few tips that we would like to share with you today!

Preventing Low Back Pain

While 80% of us will suffer a severe back pain episode at some point in our lives, most of us at any given time should be more concerned about preventing or aggravating back pain, rather than resolving a set-back. As they say, an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. There are two aspects to prevention of back pain: keeping strong and flexible, and avoiding mistakes during movements.

Good Morning!!

We here at EC hope you're having a very enjoyable week so far!  We also have some health tips we'd like to share with you, as we prepare for the upcoming weekend.

Low Back Pain: Could Your Feet Or Hips Be At Fault?

The body is an interconnected whole and needs to be looked at as such in order to get at the root of a spinal problem. We are all familiar with low back trauma, bending and stooping in awkward positions to lift something from a trunk, or the slip and fall on ice. In these examples, it's easy to see how the trauma preceded the low back pain.

But sometimes pains in the low back are not so easy to figure out. One area of the spine could be compensating in posture for another, inhibiting a vertebral joint's ability to fully recover. Or maybe you're suffering from the cumulative affects of microtrauma over time.

Such is the short leg; about 1/10 people will have an anatomic difference in leg length of up to one centimeter. This short leg causes the pelvis...

The Time is Now to Improve Yourself!

Now more than ever, we need to be mindful of our spiritual, mental and physical health in the information war we are in.  You may already know, but I went to Arizona 2 years ago and acquired my Certified High Performance Coach license.  
I grew up with my Dad not around.  My Mom, my Aunt and my community in Cambridge, IL, raised me so I was always looking to others to figure things out.  I have never stopped searching.  Ironically, Jack LaLanne was one person that I looked up to in 6th grade and I recently just found out he was a Chiropractor, too.  I believe this desire to always want to learn, helped me find Certified High Performance Coaching and a few other things, too.
