Acru Health: Precision Chiropractic

Chiropractic + Hormones Sometimes our bodies experience a disconnect when it comes to brain and body communication. Physical, chemical, and emotional stress can all add up and overstimulate the STRESS response in the body. Instead of our bodies being in a peaceful + harmonious state, stress can start to take the wheel on our well-being. And, when our stress hormones are running amuck, maintaining fertility hormones takes a back seat.... If you’re trying to conceive, this is why it is IMPERATIVE that you’re making sure that your body is fully connected and as stress-free as possible. Chiropractic helps tone down your body’s internal stress response and promotes happy hormones. We absolutely love taking care of our current parents-to-be AND our newly expanded families, like Vidal, Yahaira, Maia, and little Gaia! If you’re embarking on your fertility journey or just need a little extra help, we would be honored to check your spine and nervous system in order to make sure your body is balanced and given the best opportunity to conceive as possible! #fertility #pregnancy #prenatal #newborn

There are lots of little things you can do outside of our office to improve your health! ... 1 Order a water instead of a soda at lunch. 2 Cut that Netflix binge down an episode and get to bed earlier. 3 Go for a walk instead of a long lounge session on the couch. These small changes can help you: Sleep better Focus more Have better digestion Maintain a better mood Kick chronic stress With that being said, we hope you’re enjoying your weekend and that you’ll try some of these tips today!

TIGHT MUSCLE MYTHS It’s true, neck pain & tight muscles are super common! Most people try to alleviate muscle issues by addressing the muscle itself - which makes sense! But, did you know that the problem could actually be with your nerves?... Nerves are the part of your body that perceive pain and send those pain signals to your brain! The delicate nerves that exit on each side of the vertebrae in your spine travel to the surrounding tissues to tell your body exactly what to do how to do it! Nerves are in charge of carrying messages back and forth between your brain and body. When your spine is misaligned, it’s stresses and distorts the communication, causing muscles to change in tone. - Tight Muscles - Trigger Points - Pain & Inflammation - Weak muscles that don’t support good posture As chiropractors, we help we help patients address the underlying issues that are causing all of these things!

Xavier’s story

We’re saying goodbye to 2020 and hello to our newest Tribe members! We’re so lucky to have them!

Is your child dealing with colic, ear infections, bed-wetting, poor sleep, or allergies? What about your teen? Are they experiencing headaches, migraines, back pain, knee pain or growing pains? A healthy birth can still result in challenges 10 days, 10 months, or even 10 years down the road. ... Dr. Chris explains how and why...

Is your head in line with your neck and shoulders? Or does it slant slightly forward? Dr. Rafael explains why we teach certain exercises to restore and maintain proper alignment of the neck.

Athletes get injured. If you’ve ever played a sport, you can attest to that. For our patients like Billy, contact sports such as boxing or martial arts are among their favorite forms of exercise. That also means they endure body blows that affect their health. Chiropractic helps to reduce pain, shorten recovery time from injuries, improve imbalances & increase your overall mobility. ... If you’re an athlete and want to continue to perform at your peak, we recommend seeking out a Chiropractor!
