It's funny but in my busy chiropractic practice in Ontario, California, I frequently get clusters of new patients with the same condition! As if they all get the memo, get a "pinched nerve" and and line up at my office!

The patient normally thinks that it was the one event of bending over to tie their shoe or perhaps picking up a laundry basket or their child is what makes their "back go out." Nothing could be further from the truth!

The reality is, upon questioning, the patient admits to a series of back flare ups throughout the years. Each time it happens, it gets worse and takes longer to heal. Then one day, boom, they can't move, their back is crooked and they are in excruciating pain!

That is why I recommend that you don't let pain be your guide! The worst thing you can do is wait until you can't move to get your spine checked out! Do you wait until you have a cavity to brush your teeth? Of course not! You use your spine, a heck of a lot more than your teeth! So be wise, be healthy and take care of your spine. Remember, if you take care of your spine, it will take care of you! Good night! ;-)
