5 WAYS TO INVEST IN YOUR HEALTH

“They are a great team.” “I came with several back issues, kyphosis, lordosis evidently contributing to a sway back, bad posture and a weak lower back. They gave me hope where I had no hope. It is amazing what can be done with muscles, etc. with training by the therapist. Corey and Chris have been amazing. Corey today getting me to do the correct form (for my “folding” back”) in foundational ways so I can do it in harder ways and incorporate into daily life. I learn something each visit that has been helpful. Hannah at the front desk is also helpful. They are a great team.” — Martha W. TELL US HOW WE DID! Help us help more people in our communities

1. Make sure to eat healthy. Eating healthy doesn’t mean you have to stay away from all sweets and salty snacks, it just means being smart about your food choices. Try swapping out your burger for lunch for a healthy meal of salmon and asparagus and buy less sugary snacks at the grocery store. 2. Exercise regularly. We all have unique bodily compositions. You don’t have to work out so hard that you pass out! Find a workout that raises your heart rate as much as feels comfortable for you. In this sense, exercise turns into medication. 3. Get to sleep at a decent hour. Everywhere we look nowadays, there’s a glow of blue light glaring back at us. Try to put your phone down and turn your television off in the evenings so your mind and body have a chance to slow down and get ready for sleep. Staying up until two in the morning is setting your body up for exhaustion. If you must have a light on at night, Harvard Health suggests “[using] dim red lights for night lights. Red light is less likely to shift circadian rhythm and suppress melatonin.” 4. Have a primary care physician. Shockingly enough, many people do not have primary care physicians! When they don’t feel good, they turn to express medical centers (which can be quite pricey and time consuming) for help. Having a primary care doctor is a good way to keep all of your medical history in one place. You can also have a “go-to” office to call when you’re in need of referrals for specialists. 5. Pay attention to your mental state of being. Being healthy is about more than just your physical state. Your mental and emotional wellbeing are important as well. Investing in your health means investing in all aspects of your body, and if you’re struggling with anxiety or depression, it could benefit you to see a counselor.
