Summer has officially started and most of us are looking forward to some fun in the sun. When the hot air hits and school is out, it is easy to relax and not take things too seriously. Work? We’ll take vacation. Diets? More like sundaes and snow cones. But the relaxed nature of summer makes it one of the most important times to strive to protect your health and wellness. One way to do this is with chiropractic care. Chiropractic is easy, quick, and comes with a ton of benefits. If you want to improve your health without the hassle, check out these reasons why you should add it to your summer routine.
At Wills Chiropractic, our chiropractors are known for their ability to relieve neck and back pain, and the benefits go much further than that! With an aligned spine – which is the primary goal of chiropractic treatment – you will find that your body is relieved of some of that pressure and tension. When those issues are resolved, moving becomes easier and you are more likely to get moving. Because summer is one of the most active times of the year, you won’t want to miss out on the benefit of improved mobility.
A properly aligned spine does more for your body than keep you comfortable. Because the spine is part of the central nervous system, when it is in alignment, the central nervous system functions optimally. That means the rest of the systems of the body do, too…including your immune system. A strong immune system may not guarantee you won’t become ill, but it does give your body a better opportunity to fight illness meaning you may find yourself getting sick less often and for a shorter period of time. Because summer is a season of fun, being sick is one of the last things you want to deal with. Additionally, as coronavirus cases rise in the United States, it’s more important than ever to make your health a priority.
This summer may look different than years past, but that doesn’t mean you can’t get out and travel which can mean a lot of time spent in the car. With regular chiropractic care, your travel experience may end up much more comfortable. Sore bodies, neck stiffness, and back pain – all of which are common during a busy travel season like summer – may find relief with the use of regular adjustments.

The holiday season is coming, and chances are good that you’ll be spending a lot of time behind the wheel between the typical commute, shopping trips, and visiting friends and family. If you spend a lot of time driving, you find yourself with a stiff neck or a sore lower back. These stretches can help you stay pain-free so that you enjoy more of the goodness that the holidays have to offer.
Halloween is just around the corner, and with it comes the delightful chaos of trick-or-treating. Kids (and adults) will soon find themselves knee-deep in candy, excitedly sorting through their sugary loot. But while indulging in a sweet treat every now and then can be fun, it’s essential to consider the negative effects of sugar on our health. By understanding why you should avoid eating too much sugar and how to go about doing it, you can enjoy the occasional piece of Halloween candy with peace of mind.
