When it comes to the body, there is a fine balance between mobility and stability. I often tell my patients, that chiropractic and massage improve the mobility of joints and surrounding tissues which allowing them to function more normally. However, stability or strength is also necessary for the body to work in an optimal way. Exercise, particularly strength training, is a great way to accomplish this. Research has shown that strengthening the muscles that surround the joints increases the longevity of an adjustment. The good thing is, you don’t have to be on an intense fitness program to improve strength, it can be as easy as a few simple exercises a day. For more information about what you can do about your body’s mobility and strength, book an appointment with a chiropractor today.
