Distracted driving is deadly. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, approximately 3,142 people were killed in motor vehicle crashes in 2020 involving distracted drivers. We commonly think of texting while driving as distracted driving, but they aren’t the only set of distractions. Distracted driving is any activity that takes a person’s attention away from the primary task of driving, including checking emails, talking or texting on your phone, goin...g on social media, eating and drinking, grooming, and talking to other passengers. Here are some tips to help keep you and everyone else safer on the road: Do not scroll through apps, including social media, while driving. Avoid texting and driving. Avoid multitasking while driving. Ask your passenger to be your ‘designated texter. Allow them to access your phone to respond to calls or messages. Driving without distractions is more than just a good driving skill; it could be the key to reducing the number of collisions on the road. However, if a distracted driver has left you or someone you cared about injured, give us a call to schedule a complete examination. Our experienced chiropractors can guide you, from consultation to recovery to the best treatments for your individual needs. Contact our office today.

Manual manipulation of the spine and other joints in the body have been around for a long time. Ancient writings from China and Greece dating between 2700 B.C. and 1500 B.C. mention spinal manipulation and the lower extremities' maneuvering to ease low back pain. Hippocrates, the famous Greek physician who lived from 460 to 357 B.C., published a text detailing the importance of manual manipulation. In one of his writings, he declares, "Get knowledge of the spine, for this is ...the requisite for many diseases." Evidence of manual manipulation of the body has been found among the ancient civilizations of Egypt, Babylon, Syria, Japan, the Incas, Mayans, and Native Americans. The official beginning of the chiropractic profession dates back to 1895 when Daniel David Palmer restored the hearing of Harvey Lillard by manually adjusting his neck, and something told him that he was on to something good. In 1897, Dr. Palmer went on to begin the Palmer School of Chiropractic in Davenport, Iowa, which continues to train doctors of chiropractic to this day. See more
