Get Stronger

Getting stronger means increasing your muscle strength and increasing your resilience.  Both are necessary to get you healthy and to keep you healthy.


Benefits of increasing your muscle strength


From a chiropractor’s perspective having good muscle strength keeps your spine stable, improves your alignment and posture, improves your athletic performance, reduces the chance of injuries, and helps improve your balance and coordination.  Furthermore, increasing your muscle strength will help you withstand and continue to partake in physical activities around the house like gardening, yard work, home renovations, shovelling, and general house work.


Increasing your resilience


Resilience is your body's ability to respond effectively when you encounter stress.  Building up your internal response to a stressful situation can help ensure you heal better and stay healthy.


The following articles explain how you can boost your muscle strength and resilience from treatments like chiropractic care to lifestyle strategies like eating healthier, exercises, sleeping better, and stress management.

Get Stronger Legs with Chiropractic

June 23, 2021 by Dean Collins Leave a Comment

In the last article, we discussed how pinched nerves in the spine are one of the main causes of weak legs.  We learned that pinched nerves can slow down the nerve flow to your leg muscles.  To illustrate this, we used the analogy of stepping on the water hose to stop the flow of water. So how do you ‘take your foot off the water hose’ and get better nerve flow to your leg muscles?  You get your spine adjusted by a chiropractor that’s how.  In this article, we will discuss how to get stronger … [Read more...]
