Are You A Control Freak?!

Maybe the biggest irony in the world is that we all try to control other people and other events, instead of putting in the effort to control our own reactions, responses, and emotions. Instead, we just let those run on autopilot. The hard truth is that we cannot actually control anyone else or any other event. Those things are going to happen regardless of what we want. Your flight can get cancelled. Your daughter might spill grape juice all over the carpet. Your boss might be a jerk! The only thing we can control is our perspective and choices we make in response to those people and events.

Try and flip this around in your favor. Every time you catch yourself trying to control someone else or another event, STOP IT! Instead, only focus on controlling your response and your reaction. It will lead to a lot more happiness; better health because of less stress; and a much better adaptability to change. You will be able to go through life without your boat getting as rocked as it used to. Let us know how you go with it!

So, it makes sense that if any of these areas are lacking then you should be at greater risk for injury, especially when we are talking low back injuries (due to how important brain control is over the vitally important spinal muscles). We know that if you can’t activate your trunk and core muscles before rapidly moving an arm, this can potentially result in a strain or sprain of the low back. This is known as the feed forward mechanism - if our spine doesn't first stabilize properly before we move our limbs then we greatly increase our risk of injury at the spinal level. These injuries usually start as microscopic injuries that we don't even notice but like everything else they continue to b...

There is constantly false information being spread about Chiropractic. But the reality is we have a safety record that is the envy of all other health and medical professions.
