BONT CHIROPRACTIC A STEP TO BETTER HEALTH M ASK THE DOCTOR I am an avid runner. Would I benefit from being adjusted? Tori from Luck Hi Tori! Great question. In short yes, everyone can benefit from being ad- justed when it comes to maintaining their overall health. For athletes, runners especially, it is greatly beneficial to be adjusted and examined semi-regularly. Subluxations in the spine and pelvis lead to a decrease in range of motion. This will feel somewhat like a tight muscle. Your legs, core, or arms may feel restricted when trying to turn, twist, or lift. Correcting these subluxations often leads to an immediate gain in range of motion. It is not uncommon to see a person's neck range of motion go from 30 degrees to 70-80 degrees in just one adjustment. Increased Range of motion or flexibility allows runners to increase their stride length and avoid tightness in their core and shoulders. Another great benefit for all athletes, or anyone, is improved nerve conduc- tion velocity. By removing subluxation from the spine nerves can properly send signals to the muscles and organs throughout the body. Improved Nerve conductance velocity may lead to faster reaction times, increased stamina, and improved deep breathing (due to unimpeded signals to the diaphragm). At Bont chiropractic we also offer Graston therapy, interferential stim thera- py, cold laser therapy, Myofascial release therapy, ultrasound therapy, as well as being able to apply KT and/or rigid tape to support any musculoskeletal structure in the body. I am confident we can help you improve as an athlete, improve your recovery time, and stop any aches and pains present. Come see us today! Submit your questions to: ask@bontchiropractic.net 144 N.
