Pain Head to Toe? Call Dr. Joe

🚨🚨Research Alert🚨🚨

Does size really matter… in the effects of dry needling therapy???

Actually according to this study it does: patients with mechanical low back pain were asked to rate their pain on a scale of 1 - 10, with 10 being the worst. These patient were subsequently treated with different gauge dry needles of equal length, in a double blind fashion.

While all groups improved the three month post treatment 1 - 10 rating was substantially lower for patients in the “fat needle” group

At Dr Joe Chiro we incorporate the latest research to improve your treatment!!!

Thank you to the Farragut chamber for another amazing event!

Happy 4th of July!!!!!

If you're looking for a natural and effective way to heal your body and connect with your nervous system, Dr. Joe's pressure point treatments may be just what you need.

Dr. Joe's approach to chiropractic care is unique in that he focuses on pressure points that are connected to your nervous system. By stimulating these pressure points, he's able to help your body release tension and restore balance to your nervous system.

I've personally found Dr. Joe's treatments to be incredibly effective in relieving pain and discomfort in my body. Not only did I feel immediate relief after my first session, but I also noticed long-term improvements in my overall health and wellbeing.

If you're looking for a chiropractor who truly cares about your healing journey and takes a holistic approach to wellness, I highly recommend Dr. Joe. Give his office a call to schedule an appointment and start your own journey towards optimal health and wellness.

These exercises will help stabilize your balance and help your core strengthen your muscles and help that back pain!
These movements may be a great way to wake up your feet before they even touch the ground.. let’s see what needs to be done! 😊

Please note, they do not need to be done in any particular order & after a little practice may take 5-8 minutes.

1. Toe stretch - this one has been explained many times (apologies) but is extremely useful for big toe alignment & in fact this particular move is great for simply stretching this joint. Perform slowly & allow the foot to relax whilst doing this.

2. Ball rolling - simply raise one knee & begin rolling the foot on the ball whilst still in bed. This can be useful for many (especially in pain) but by now you may already be out of bed seeking a harder surface. Both are acceptable & each come with their benefits of course.

3. Pain management - after rolling a little you may have discovered some painful areas. It’s now time to take your thumbs & simply press in those areas for 20-30 seconds whilst slowly raising your toes up & down. This should be a little uncomfortable but be sure to enter into this slowly.

4. Toe splay - either placing all your fingers between your toes or separating a few at the time, your goal is to create a little more spread within your toes. Over time you’ll see & feel a great difference here whilst your feet become more supple & less squished together.

5. Top foot massage - in the small sections between your toe bones simply massage with the tips of your fingers, starting from the top & ending as you reach the toe joint. This excellent movement allows the toes to separate a little from a life time of restrictive footwear.

Try these out for 14 days to see how you’ve improved! For those who want an additional challnge: perform this when you go to bed also 😊

Good luck!

Thank you for the treats! Our patients are the best!!

🤦🏻‍♂️OK… I’m guilty!!! 🤣

I frequently prescribe stretching, either active or passive, to patients. I also frequently give vague subjective dosing guidelines.

No more! New year, new recommendations: 5 days x 5 min, I think that’s manageable

What a pleasure it is to help professional athletes from all sports live and perform, pain free. Really appreciate the kind words and hard work that these athletes put into their bodies and effort they add to entertain us.

🤷🏻‍♂️“How do I recover?”🤷🏻‍♂️

🤷🏼‍♀️“What should I take for recovery?”🤷🏼‍♀️

And my personal favorite…

👵🏼“I just don’t feel like I recover anymore”👵🏼

Try this:

Rehydrate - 150% of the weight lost during exercise plus sodium

Refuel - carbs based on total energy expenditure

Repair - .5 to 1.0g protein per kg body weight per day

Rest - 7+ hours per night, 8+ is even better

🍻Cheers to feeling like a human being again!!!🍻

Reminds me of those wild nights in chiropractic school… 🤦🏻‍♂️🤣
