Studies have shown and continue to show the effectiveness of chiropractic on chronic low back pain. While surgery and medications can absolutely be helpful, consider trying chiropractic before or alongside other medical treatments. #chiropractic #acupuncture #massage #adjustment #movewell #health #wellness #pain #headache #sciatica #backpain #core #neckpain #losangeles #california #sanpedro #southbay

Thomas Edison was a COOL dude, oh and he was also super smart. When he wasn't inventing lightbulbs he was making observations about medicine and health. He knew the importance of the human frame, proper diet, and PREVENTING disease, as opposed to relying solely on medicine for our issues. #chiropractic #acupuncture #massage #adjustment #movewell #health #wellness #pain #headache #sciatica #backpain #core #neckpain #losangeles #california #sanpedro #southbay #history #edison

Going DEEP for the disinfectant wipes. Molly has a cannon, and is always working to keep our office clean and sanitized, thank you!

Do you ever notice tightness, pain, or discomfort in your neck, shoulders, or upper back? If you said yes, these aches could be coming from your cervical facet joints. Pain originating from facet joints typically responds very well to chiropractic adjustments and other therapies in our office like acupuncture and massage! If you are dealing with recurrent or ongoing pain give our office a call and we are happy to check your spine and get you on the right track :)... #chiropractic #massage #acupuncture #health #wellness #yoga #neckpain #backpain #pain #losangeles #sanpedro #southbay

Sleep is kinda weird, we crawl into a soft bed, close our eyes, nod off, and wake up hours later. We've all heard about the importance of shooting for 7-8 hours of sleep each night, but why? Check out our top 5 reasons to get the right amount of sleep our bodies need! 1. Sharper brain - Our brains need sleep to help process our learning and memory, that is why if we get only four or five hours on average we may wake up feeling sluggish or slow. 2. Better mood - Studies have s...hown that those with insomnia are 5 times more likely to develop depression, and the odds of having anxiety or panic disorders also increase. Those are some serious consequences. 3. Healthier heart - When we sleep, our blood pressure tends to go down vs during the day. Greater overall time with a lower blood pressure helps keep our arteries and blood vessels healthier for the long haul! 4. Healthier blood sugar - When we reach a deep sleep, our blood glucose levels drop, so the reduction of sugar in our vessels promotes health and can help reduce your odds of developing type 2 diabetes. 5. Immune boost - Like many processes in our body, proper sleep helps regulate our immune system so when we need our immune cells they are ready to react quickly and effectively! Shoot for 7-8 hours of sleep each night, if you have trouble falling asleep or staying asleep, we recommend trying to a meditation app before bed, it only takes a few minutes and helps hundreds of thousands of people around the world. If you are new to meditation apps, try downloading @calm or @headspace on your phone! #sleep #covid19 #coronavirus #help #insomnia #heart #diabetes #immunity #chiropractic #acupuncture #massage #health #losangeles #southbay #sanpedro What helps you get to sleep or stay asleep?

PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT to stand up straight, your spine will love you for it, it may even start talking to you and thank you who knows. When looking at the body from the side view, we should be able to connect the dots on a straight line from the ear, to shoulders, to hips, and ankle.

Molly and Aubree sacrificing their ears for us on the daily! Thanks for all you do for our patients

We've been talking a lot about how having a forward head tilt can cause tweaks and pain in our neck/back. Check out this image, it illustrates how the farther our head moves forward, the greater the torque and perceived weight our neck and upper back muscles have to deal with. Physics is cool in airplanes, not when it causes osteoarthritis in our necks.

SO MUCH SITTING! Students and those of us working from alike are sitting now more than ever. The least we can do is try to show our spines some love and make a few easy changes to help our posture and feel better 1. Try to raise your laptop/monitor to eye level if you are looking down at it, this keeps our gaze on the horizontal and takes pressure off our neck. No stand needed, just use some old books to raise it up (you may need a wireless keyboard for the table if using ...a laptop). 2. As you are settling in to do some work or study at the computer, start off CORRECT! Lift your head up so you are looking forward, relax your upper traps and shoulders down and back so theres no unnecessary muscle tension, take 3 deep breaths, and chill into the coolest posture ever #health #posture #chiropractic #exercise #adjustment #rehab #fitness #southbay #losangeles #sanpedro #hermosa
