Find it hard to relax for adjustments? Or find that you just don't adjust well without getting a massage first? Try our roller table before your next adjustment. Simple design but effective. Slowly moves a roller up and down your back. You may find that as you lay on the table, some areas in your spine will release with ease. If you want to try this at your next appointment just let us know.

Plank challenge is still live! You have till the end of July to try the plank challenge to win a set of yoga wheels and Hager Chiro swag! You can participate by submitting a video to any of the plank challenge posts, DM the video to us or come into the clinic and have us time you.
Plank exercises strengthen the core, improve posture, enhance total-body stability, and support overall physical and mental health.
Core Strength and Stability
Planks primarily target the abdominal muscles, including the re**us abdominis, transverse abdominis, and obliques, helping to build core strength and endurance. A strong core improves balance, supports the spine, and enhances performance in daily activities and other workouts. Unlike crunches, planks engage multiple core muscles simultaneously, providing isometric strength that stabilizes the trunk.

Total-Body Engagement
Planks are a compound exercise that activates multiple muscle groups. They work the arms, shoulders, chest, back, glutes, hamstrings, and quadriceps, making them a full-body workout without requiring equipment. Variations like forearm planks, high planks, and side planks can target specific areas, such as obliques or upper body strength.

Posture and Spine Protection
Regular planking can improve posture by strengthening the muscles that support the spine and shoulders. This helps maintain a neutral spine while sitting or standing, reducing the risk of back pain and injury. Engaging the core during planks also protects the back during lifting or bending movements.

Flexibility and Balance
Planks stretch the hamstrings, arches of the feet, and shoulders, enhancing flexibility in the posterior chain. Side plank variations improve lateral stability and balance, which is beneficial for athletic performance and daily functional movements.

Mental Health and Endurance
Holding a plank requires focus and controlled breathing, which can reduce stress and improve mental resilience. The exercise also promotes muscle endurance, allowing for longer periods of physical activity without fatigue.

Convenience and Accessibility
Planks are equipment-free and can be performed anywhere, making them suitable for all fitness levels. Beginners can start with knee planks or shorter holds, while advanced practitioners can increase duration or try dynamic variations.

Consistency and proper form are key to maximizing these benefits, with recommended holds ranging from 20 seconds to 2 minutes, depending on fitness level.

We will be open on Memorial Day from 9am-1pm for chiropractic care. If you need us give us a call or hop on the portal to reserve your spot.
Hope everyone is having a great week. If you call the office this afternoon, I may not be able to answer. Please leave a message and I will call you back asap. If wanting to book an appointment for Friday, please use the portal so I can focus on patient care. I did survive the plank challenge just fyi.
The first fitness challenge is upon us. We will be tracking the scores here in the clinic with patient initials and times on a white board. You can submit 2 times. This way if you want to work on the challenge and improve you can. The goal of these challenges are to challenge people to step outside their comfort zones and push each other to improve. Adult life for the majority of use becomes more sedentary with time, leading to muscle mass loss. Lots of back, neck and shoulder injuries/issues come from this loss of muscle strength and ability to stabilize these areas.
Submissions need to have a video of their submission so there is no cheating. You can submit through the comments to this link or you can submit your video directly to us via DM if you want your privacy. Or you can come in and give it a try here in the clinic. We know that people don't like being on video, so we are allowing you to come in and get timed by one of our staff members.
Please only participate if you do NOT have any serious injuries, have pain while performing the challenge. If you are not sure ask your doctor or myself the next time you see me.
Again I want to help people reach their goals and push to get stronger. Anyone can participate. Winner will get some cool Hager Chiropractic swag and a set of yoga wheels.

Had the opportunity to represent chiropractic for the Riverside Middle School Career Fair. Had a blast! The kids had great questions. I think they also did a great job on my sign!
