Getting Back to Working Out

As gyms slowly start to reopen in Colorado and the warmer summer months begin, it is time to start losing that Quarantine 15 and thinking about self care, working out and personal health again. A good workout routine can help you lose weight, tone muscle, improve overall health and build a strong immune system.  Adding chiropractic care to your workout routine can improve your workouts as well whether you workout a little or a lot by aligning your back, neck and spine.

Chiropractic care is an excellent way to reduce and prevent pain making it easier to work out more efficiently and longer. The main focus of chiropractic care is to keep the spine in alignment and ensure proper communication between the brain and the rest of the body.  Often the back, neck, head, and joints are the primary areas people feel pain after working out. Seeing a chiropractor expert at least once a week during your workout routine can help relieve pain and stiffness.In addition, during strenuous exercise, the muscles may become inflamed, fluid can accumulate in the joints, and the bones and ligaments can get stretched or compressed and getting things back into proper alignment helps you feel better and also ensures you do not injure yourself.

Chiropractic care can also help your joints and ligaments in top form reducing problems and increasing range of motion.  Varied weights, gym equipment and cardio can increase health and workout results, but they often can lead to issues without a full range of motion.  It also helps you be less sore after a workout routine.

Finally, chiropractic care can help keep you bones properly aligned.  Without proper alignment, often your body will begin to compensate for the problem areas causing potential pain in your sides, back, your neck or shoulders. When your back is aligned, it lessens the stress and pressure that is placed on the bones, muscles, and joints. Compensation for weak areas happens a lot less, the result being a more balanced and healthy workout that helps improve the muscles, bones, and body.

We specialize in this type of chiropractic care and look forward to working with you to make sure that you get the best care and therapy options available tailored to your specific needs and workouts to help you boost your health going into this summer.
