Thankful for Health and Movement

Having the ability to be physically active on a regular basis is one of the most important ways you can maintain or improve your health. Being physically active can improve your brain health, help manage weight, reduce the risk of disease, strengthen bones and muscles, and improve your ability to do everyday activities. But what if pain or injury makes movement a challenge? Thankfully, you have a partner in health at MCR Chiropractic.

Partners in Health

The ability to be active and healthy is uniquely tied to what you are capable of based on safety. This is especially true if you have a complex medical history or previous injuries that put you at risk. As your partner in health, we take the time to conduct a thorough review of your current and past medical history, assess your mobility and range of motion, and use all of this to prescribe a care plan that helps you safely improve function to help you reach your optimal health. As a member of your care team, we work closely with your other medical professionals to ensure you are involved in every step of your care.

Partners in Movement

It’s a perfect time of year to reflect on your blessings while also taking stock of where you can make improvements, especially with your health. Regular exercise benefits your physical and mental health, even at a low or beginner level. However, far too many people allow pain or injuries to get in the way. According to the CDC, only about 1 in 4 adults and 1 in 6 high school students meet the recommended guidelines for aerobic and strengthening activities.

If you have given up the activities you love or feel unsafe doing them, don’t just settle. Working with a chiropractor can help to ensure your body is prepared for physical activity and they will also give you the physical tools you need to safely perform activities that are appropriate for you. Working together, they can also help you understand how to make slight changes to your favorite activities that keep you safe. Chiropractors work to diminish pain, restore function, and remove barriers to a movement-filled life.

Partner in Safety

In addition to helping people overcome illnesses or injuries that they have already been diagnosed with, chiropractors can help reduce your risk of injuries in the future. Preventative care is a huge component of the work we do to help you achieve optimal health in the long-term. Proper spinal alignment is key to avoiding injury and not only will your chiropractor correct any spinal dysfunction, but they will also help identify risks associated with over-use injuries as well and provide their recommendations on how to maintain your health. Your MCR chiropractor is your partner in safety across the spectrum of life and its many challenges.
