Tips for Joint Pain Relief and How Chiropractic Can Help
At Espinosa Family Chiropractic we deal with a fair amount of patients who come to us feeling the tension in their bodies from their everyday grinds. Often, we find that people’s necks, backs, and their joints take on a tremendous amount of their daily pressures.
Below, we go over a few ways to alleviate joint pain as well as how our treatments can provide drug-free pain relief.
Stretch Every Day
Stretch at least once every day, whether it’s a quick 10-minute session or you dedicate an entire hour to stretching is up to you. You’ll start to notice your body recover from workouts more quickly, not to mention feel better in your own skin day-to-day.
Exercise
Exercising your body might seem counterproductive to healing your joint pain, but exercise and strength training will actually strengthen our muscles, which will help support our spine as well as our joints. Repetitive motion has been linked to joint pain, so try to switch up your workouts as often as possible.

Your Q1 Wellness Check In
As January starts to enter its final days, it’s a good idea to take a look at how you’re starting out your year, in order to ensure you have a productive and rewarding 2020. Below, Espinosa Family Chiropractic goes over a few ways to take stock and inventory of your progress.
How Are You Feeling?
If you’re making healthier choices and have been since the start of the year, you should be at the phase of progress where you’re noticing improvements in your health. You might have more energy, feel stronger and more fit, not to mention have a better and healthier attitude. If not, maybe there are some adjustments that need to be made.
Where Can You Improve?
Take a look at any areas where you might be slacking off, whether it’s work, leisure, or self-care. Improve upon those areas to bolster your weaknesses and take your wellness regiment to the next level.

Chiropractic treatments have been shown to improve mood, not to mention optimize the body, your internal processes, and your brain. Contact Espinosa Family Chiropractic today to learn more about how our treatments can help you achieve your 2020 goals.
Easy Energy Boosts
When it comes down to it, some of us have more energy than others throughout the day and much of it has to do with the choices we make throughout the day for our health and wellness. When we’re eating good foods, getting the right amount of sleep, as well as staying active and hydrating, this sets the tables for an energy-infused day consistently.
Below, Espinosa Family Chiropractic goes over a few ways to stay energized throughout the day.
1.) Power Nap
Power naps are a great way to replenish yourself in the middle of the day. Try to time your naps for 15-45 minutes, because you don’t want to over nap, which might increase drowsiness.
2.) Smoothie Power
Drink a veggie smoothie with kale, garlic, chlorophyll, and add some protein powder that works for you. You’ll feel amazing!
3.) Exercise Regularly
Exercising regularly will help energize you throughout the day and reduce daily anxiety, helping promote a healthy night of sleep.

Thinking Differently About Chiropractic Treatment
In this day and age, more and more people are looking for homeopathic, all-natural solutions to diversify their health and wellness repertoire. Chiropractic treatment used to have a negative stigma attached to it. Many folks expect chiropractic treatment to be a finite experience, like, say, a few treatments and then you’re cleared to get back in the game.
However, it’s important to look at the big picture. Every day we sit in cars and in offices, then many of us go exercise and carry sizeable loads in our personal and professional lives. That means that your body is constantly going through the wringer. Chiropractic treatment can address specified problems like spine pain, headaches, even insomnia and gastrointestinal issues. However, chiropractic also works to decompress our bodies, working to improve our flexibility and range of motion at the same time. To get an adjustment is to recalibrate the body and mind.
Couldn’t you use that every once in a while? We think so, too.
That’s why Espinosa Family Chiropractic is here year-round to provide our all-natural, drug-free treatments that are aimed at treating the whole patient. Contact us today to learn about how chiropractic care can fit into your self-care routine.
Build These 3 New Healthy Habits in 2020
Espinosa Family Chiropractic treats many patients who begin their years looking to achieve new goals, and a part of achieving our goals is building healthy habits that help us achieve them.
Below, we go over a few healthy habits to build this year that will have you being more productive, not to mention feeling healthy each day to attack whatever obstacles come your way this year.
1.) Take Care of Yourself
Practicing self-care is important, but we’re not talking Netflix here, people. Take a hike or take a yoga class after a tough work week or fitness routine. Get a massage and pursue chiropractic treatment when you’re feeling out of whack. Making these types of healthy decisions will go a long way.
2.) Help Others
Helping others is something that many people forget to put on their agenda. Having more of a service style attitude will make you an asset to others. Help others by giving the gift of chiropractic treatment for birthdays, for instance (wink, wink).
3.) Take On Challenges
Choose more challenging goals this year and always take the more difficult route to achieve your end goal. At the very least, never take short cuts.
