The exercises overleaf have been designed by chiropractors to maintain mobility, and encourage better support of the spinal column. Each exercise should be performed 5 to 10 times, at a leisurely pace, twice daily. All movements should be pain-free - without restriction. IF YOU EXPERIENCE PAIN, DO NOT REPEAT THE EXERCISE - SEEK CHIROPRACTIC ADVICE QUICKLY. Many people do not consider chiropractic treatment until trauma occurs. Either your back 'goes', awaken with a stiff neck, or experience pain and restricted movements somewhere in the body. In general, prior to such an 'accident' , a reduced range of spinal movement is evident. Such a condition can be detected by your chiropractor - treated - and supporting exercises given to eliminate the cause of such an injury and strengthen the muscular and ligamentous support of the spine. The modern chiropractor has received extensive training in anatomy, physiology, and kinesiology (how muscle groups work) - his assessment of spinal function is based on years of scientific study of the spine. Treatment is quick, painless and effective. Periodic visits will help maintain pain-free movements and ensure a more efficient nerve supply to all areas of the body -thus eliminating potential major problems before they occur. This is true prevention - and prevention is always better than cure. Give your body a chance - have a check-up with your local chiropractor today.
