Chiropractors can recommend stretches that may help prevent certain neuro-muscular issues, but they do not commonly perform those stretches on a patient. Their main focus is on chiropractic manipulations. Many issues treated by a chiropractor can be treated actively through stretching.

Stretching increases the tension on a muscle spindle and increases the rate of action potential generation by its sensory endings. Muscle contraction, on the other hand, reduces tension on the spindle and lowers the rate of action potential generation.

At Wellspring Health we combine stretching and chiropractic care to increase your flexibility and range of motion which are important elements of your overall fitness. Our chiropractic care has multiple health benefits, including helping to increase flexibility. If you want to improve your range of motion, chiropractic adjustments and manipulation can help.

At Wellspring Health we offer PNF (Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation) stretching that can improve your range of motion, or ROM. It can also boost your muscle flexibility and strength. Stretching your body to become more supple and flexible offers many physical benefits. Such training allows for easier and deeper movements while building strength and stability. Stretching your muscles and joints also leads to greater range of motion, improved balance, and increased flexibility.

PNF stretching elongates your muscles, increases blood flow, and removes tension in the muscles, and reduces the risk of injuries during sports and workout. Some of the PNF stretching exercises also help in some serious sports injuries during the rehabilitation process.

PNF was initially developed by physiotherapists as a method of rehabilitating stroke victims and refers to any of the several post-isometric relaxation stretching techniques. These are when a muscle group is passively stretched and then contracted isometrically against resistance, whilst it is in a stretched position.

The key points to remember regarding the ideal position to sit at work would be, keep your back straight, in particular to your chair. Avoid rounding your shoulders forward (for this, you must have your screen at your eye level) . Avoid rounding (or arching) your lower back.

Sitting and standing with proper postural alignment will allow anyone to work more efficiently with less fatigue and strain on your body's ligaments and muscles. Being aware of good posture is the first step to breaking old poor postural habits and reducing stress and strain on your spine.

As we get older, bad habits such as slouching and inactivity cause muscle fatigue and tension that ultimately lead to poor posture. The complications of poor posture include back pain, spinal dysfunction, joint degeneration, rounded shoulders and a potbelly.

Our chiropractors can help you correct poor posture such as forward head translation or slouching and realign your spine to assure that the body is functioning optimally.

Chiropractic care is the best treatment for sciatica for several reasons. Unlike traditional medicine, treatments that do not use pain medication or surgery are emphasized. Chiropractic care succeeds where other types of care fall short. An array of techniques help ease your pain and other symptoms.

Our chiropractors apply spinal manipulations to allow a herniated disc to rest back into position and take the pressure off the sciatic nerve. The adjustments can also free limited spinal movement and restore misaligned vertebral discs.

Sciatica-like pain can usually be relieved within four visits or less. During each treatment session, our chiropractors teach basic exercises that you can do at home to stop the symptoms from returning.

Walking is a surprisingly effective approach for relieving sciatic pain because regular walking spurs the release of pain-fighting endorphins and reduces inflammation.

Chiropractic adjustments help to relieve stress in several ways. By adjusting the spine, the body can naturally release tension held in muscles, which relaxes the body and increases circulation and blood flow.
