You may have some changes to your Thanksgiving plans this year, but if you’re like millions of other Americans, you still have plenty of preparations ahead of you. You prepare your grocery list, prepare your house, but do you prepare your body? Here are a few ways chiropractic can protect you from some typical Thanksgiving downfalls.

TIME FOR TRAVEL, NOT BACK PAIN

For those that plan to travel this year, all that sitting and waiting can lead to back pain. Whether you’re traveling by car or by plane, it means a lot of time in a small seat without much movement and the potential for injury when lifting heavy luggage. If you are already suffering from back pain, it could be a recipe for disaster. Chiropractic is an excellent treatment for back pain. Our chiropractors will return your spine to proper alignment and – with regular care – keep it there. This helps relieve immediate discomfort and may help prevent pain from returning in the future so you can enjoy a happy and comfortable holiday season.  

OVEREATING, LESS MOVEMENT, AND MORE STIFFNESS

There’s no denying that Thanksgiving is a food-centered holiday and many of us consume more than we would on a typical day. Since you’re also most likely on the go, it means less exercise and movement. In terms of your health, this is bad for your weight and flexibility. All of the extra calories plus inactivity means your joints may become painful and stiff.

Chiropractors are known as neck and back doctors, but chiropractic can also be beneficial for the joints. Receive treatment now and you may help improve flexibility and prevent stiffness for a healthier holiday season.

GET ADJUSTED AT SHIELDS CHIROPRACTIC

The holidays can be stressful – both physically and emotionally. While you prepare for the season ahead, don’t forget to prepare your body, too.
