Cov-19 Update 4-1-20

Being a healthcare office, I am considered an "essential service" and will remain open during the state mandated lock down.  Please call the office for daily office hours, they are subject to change.

The health and safety of my patients IS always my first priority. I am taking every precaution to ensure my office is a safe environment and remains virus free.  I am sanitizing the office, my tables, the restroom, door knobs and all other public & high touch areas in the office, after each patient.  I am also limiting the amount of patients in the office at one time to 3, to allow for social distancing.

The last thing I would ever want is for a patient in need to be forced to go to the ER or Quick Care during this crisis.   You have every right to leave your home to come here for treatment if you wish to.

Since I am limiting the amount of patients in the office, I am able to keep patients distanced from each other.  I am also willing to set up appointments during times to ensure you will be the only patient here.  I will make every accommodation I can to make you feel safer if needed.  

I am not allowing patients to enter the office, if they are sick or possibly exposed to the virus.  I am also asking that patients sanitize their hands prior to coming into the office. 

Should you be experiencing any of the symptoms associated with the virus (fever, cough or difficulty breathing or headache, please do not come in for care and self quarantine.P.

Avoiding Low Back Pain

​

The secret to avoiding low back can be as simple as learning  how to move.  The majority of my patients seeking treatment for low back pain have not suffered an injury or accident.  They are suffering from repetitive movement trauma.  Simply put: a repetitive motion or movement done many times over the years, usually improperly.

​

In the case of low back pain, the movement is bending forward at the waist (hinging at the waist) with legs straight.  Add some rotation (twisting) in there too and it's the perfect recipe for causing low back pain and disc injury.

​

The way to avoid it is to learn how to bending at the hips or what is  called a hip hinge.  A hip hinge is movement (flexion and extension) through the hip joint, keeping a neutral spine and the knees slightly flexed.

​

It sounds simple, but it can be complicated for some to master at first.  You need to "re-learn" how to bend thus creating new muscle firing  patterns and movement and will probably have a few tight muscles to stretch out.  Typically, the glutes, hamstrings and calves.
