Postpartum support is vital for a mother’s well-being as she transitions into this new chapter of life.

Prioritizing recovery ensures that both momma and baby thrive, preventing long-term issues like chronic pain, fatigue, and emotional stress. Chiropractic care is a powerful tool during this time, helping to balance the body, alleviate discomfort, and support overall mental health. Incorporating these recovery strategies—like chiropractic care, rest, hydration, gentle movement, emotional support, and bonding with your baby—creates a strong foundation for a healthy, joyful postpartum journey.

If you are on your journey to healing postpartum, we'd love to support you and your little one during this transition. There is NO better time to add chiropractic to your wellness routine. Give us a call at 864.565.9920 today, we can't wait to serve you during this season!

We’re incredibly grateful for our amazing practice member, Evie, and her kind words!

Thank you, Evie, for trusting us with your care—we’re honored to serve you! It’s been such a joy to see your progress and hear how much better you feel.

The safety pin cycle is a simple yet powerful way to understand the brain-body connection.

Imagine a safety pin: one side represents the brain, and the other represents the body.

When the safety pin is closed, it symbolizes a well-functioning nervous system where the brain and body are in perfect communication, allowing for normal function, alignment, and a state of ease. In this state, the nervous system can adapt to stressors, maintain health, and keep the body functioning optimally.

However, when the safety pin is open, it represents misalignment (AKA subluxation) or dysfunction in the nervous system, leading to poor communication between the brain and body. This disconnection can result in abnormal function, a state of dis-ease, and various health issues.

Chiropractic care is essential in ensuring that the "safety pin" remains closed, maintaining that crucial brain-body connection. By addressing imbalances, chiropractic care helps restore and preserve this connection, keeping the nervous system functioning at its best, promoting overall health and well-being!

At Mission Chiropractic, we believe in precision and care when it comes to your health! That’s why we offer postural x-rays right in our office. These quick, safe, and professional x-rays allow Dr. Haley to get a clear, exact assessment of your spine, helping us identify any issues like loss of curvature or spinal degeneration.

In our office we commonly use this phrase: to see is to know, to not see is to guess, and we never want to guess with your health!

Want to know more, please send us a DM or contact us at 864.565.9920.

Are you experiencing low back pain during pregnancy?

Lower back pain may be common during pregnancy as your body adapts to support new life, but it doesn't mean it can't be helped! The added weight and shifting center of gravity can lead to many discomforts. Here are four effective tips to help manage low back pain during this special time:

🧍‍♀️ Practice Proper Posture: Maintain overall balance by standing tall and avoiding slouching.
🧘‍♀️ Stay Active with Gentle Exercise: Engage in activities like walking or prenatal yoga to strengthen muscles and support your lower back.
🤸‍♀️ Incorporate Stretching: Gentle stretches focused on the hips and lower back can relieve tension and improve flexibility.
💆🏼‍♀️Regular Chiropractic Care: Chiropractic adjustments specifically tailored for pregnancy can relieve pressure, improve spinal balance, and enhance your overall comfort.

Incorporate these tips for a more comfortable and balanced pregnancy. If you're currently expecting and are seeking natural, effective relief to discomforts during pregnancy, chiropractic care may help you find some relief! Supporting your body during this time is crucial for your overall health. At Mission Chiropractic, it is our honor and privilege to get to support you every step of the way. 🌿

Ever wonder what happens before and after a chiropractic adjustment? 🤔

Before an adjustment, your body may be experiencing "dysfunctions" that lead to discomfort, tension, and decreased mobility. Symptoms like headaches, back pain, anxiety, and fatigue are common when your nervous system isn’t in its optimal state.

After an adjustment, the difference is often immediate. Many times the body will feel more balanced, tension melts away, and you’re left with improved mobility and a calm nervous system.

Staying consistent with chiropractic care helps maintain this balance, ensuring you feel your best every day!

Our goal at Mission Chiropractic is to make sure you are living out your BEST life while functioning at the most optimal level!

Chiropractic care positively impacts heart rate variability (HRV), a key indicator of how well your nervous system adapts to stress.

HRV measures the variation in time between each heartbeat, reflecting the balance between the sympathetic (fight or flight) and parasympathetic (rest and digest) nervous systems.

Athletes for example, often have a higher HRV that is correlated with better recovery, readiness to train, and overall adaptability to the stress of training.

Regular chiropractic care can enhance HRV by reducing interference between the brain and body, helping you better manage stress and promoting overall well-being.

At Mission Chiropractic, we use INSiGHT scans to measure HRV and monitor the impact of care on your nervous system. These scans provide a detailed look at your body's stress levels, allowing us to tailor your care plan for optimal results.

By tracking HRV, we can ensure your nervous system stays balanced, keeping you healthier and more resilient to stress!

Did you know that chiropractic care can significantly improve your respiratory function?

By addressing issues in the sinuses, lungs, and diaphragm, chiropractic care enhances your body's ability to breathe easily and efficiently.

From supporting sinus health and the immune system, to providing relief for asthma and improving diaphragm function, chiropractic care offers a holistic approach to better respiratory health.

If you are tired of dealing with sinus issues, recurrent respiratory issues, have trouble breathing, or just wanting to breathe much easier-- Give us a call to see how chiropractic care can support you! 864.565.9920

No matter who you are—teacher, police officer, stay-at-home mom, athlete, student, or anything in between—everyone can feel their best with chiropractic care!

Back to school means heavy backpacks and hours of desk sitting, but that doesn’t have to mean poor posture for your kiddos! 📚🎒

Here are some of our favorite tips to keep your child’s nervous system and back healthy and strong this back-to-school season:

Wear the Backpack Correctly: Use both straps and adjust for a snug fit. Chiropractors can manage muscle tension from improper backpack use. The bottom of the backpack should rest in the curve of the lower back, not lower than the waist. ✨

Desk Sitting Posture: Sit with a straight back, feet flat, and knees at 90 degrees. Regular chiropractic check-ups can help address any posture-related issues that arise from prolonged sitting, ensuring that your child maintains a healthy spine and nervous system. 🌿

Regular Chiropractic Adjustments: These are crucial for maintaining proper function within the nervous system and overall health. Make it part of your child’s health routine to keep them strong and resilient throughout the school year. 💪

Keep your child’s posture in check this school year with these tips and regular chiropractic care with Dr. Haley at Mission Chiropractic! 🌟

🎒For fun - weigh your child’s backpack and drop its weight in our Notes.

REMINDER!! 📣 The office will be closed on Monday, September 2 for the Labor Day Holiday!

We hope you’ve had a wonderful, relaxing weekend and look forward to seeing you back in the office tomorrow! We will resume normal office hours on Tuesday, September 3rd! 🤍

Helping kids manage stress and anxiety with chiropractic care.

Managing stress and anxiety in kids is essential for their overall well-being and development. Here are five effective strategies to help your child navigate their emotions and maintain healthy balance:

1. Chiropractic Care:
Regular chiropractic adjustments can significantly reduce physical and emotional stress by promoting a balanced nervous system. A well-functioning nervous system supports your child's overall well-being, helping them handle stress and anxiety more effectively. 🌿🧠

2. Limit Screen Time:
Too much screen time can increase anxiety and stress in children. Encourage them to take regular breaks from screens and engage in other activities like reading, drawing, or playing outside. This helps reduce overstimulation and promotes better mental health. 📵📚

3. Regular Physical Activity:
Exercise is a natural stress reliever. Ensure your child gets plenty of physical activity through sports, dancing, or even just running around the yard. Regular exercise releases endorphins, which are natural mood lifters, and helps "burn off" stress and anxiety. 🏃‍♂️⚽

4. Promote Healthy Sleep Habits:
Adequate sleep is crucial for managing stress and anxiety. Establish a consistent bedtime routine to ensure your child gets enough rest. Good quality sleep helps regulate mood and supports overall emotional stability. 🛌🌙

5. Limit Processed Foods and Sugar:
A balanced diet plays a significant role in mood regulation. Limit your child's intake of processed foods and sugar, which can cause energy spikes and crashes, leading to increased stress and anxiety. Opt for nutritious meals with plenty of fruits, vegetables, and whole grains. 🥗🍎

By integrating these practices into your child's daily routine, you can help them manage stress and anxiety more effectively, promoting a happier and healthier life. 🌟💙

If you’re looking for additional support in managing your child’s stress and anxiety, chiropractic care may be able to help! Schedule an appointment with us at Mission Chiropractic to learn more about how we can help!

Now that the new school year is in full swing, it's essential to understand the science behind focus and attention issues which can be coined as "busy brain=busy body.” These issues arise from an imbalance between the sympathetic (fight or flight) and parasympathetic (rest and digest) nervous systems. 🧠

When the sympathetic nervous system is overactive, it can lead to constant alertness and stress, contributing to difficulty focusing. Chiropractic care helps calm this overactivity, reducing stress and promoting relaxation. A well-functioning parasympathetic nervous system aids in mental clarity and focus by balancing the nervous system.

Quality sleep is crucial for cognitive function and reducing "busy brain." Chiropractic care can improve sleep by reducing nervous system stress, helping students wake up refreshed and ready to learn. Weekly chiropractic care not only balances the nervous system but also boosts overall health, enhancing the ability to focus and succeed in school.

Help your child achieve better focus and attention this school year with the support of chiropractic care. Schedule an appointment today at Mission Chiropractic! 864.565.9920

Our goal as chiropractors is to remove the interference withIN the brain-body connection, allowing for complete ease and healing to take place.

The human body was made PERFECT, but our stressful environment can cause our body to get stuck in fight or flight, which causes dis-ease to take place. When this occurs, symptoms show up as a way for our brain to become more aware that the body is overloaded.

If you want to feel AND function your BEST, reach out to us at 864.565.9920!
