Do You Suffer From Morning Stiffness?

Imagine this: the sun is shining, the birds are chirping, and you roll over to get out of bed – ouch! – you can’t move. If this sounds familiar, you aren’t alone! Millions of Americans suffer from morning stiffness and also struggle to start their day. There are many things that can cause morning stiffness and it can happen to any joint in the body. Fortunately, chiropractic care can help.

Get Restful Sleep

Do you get enough restful sleep each night? An adult should get between seven to nine hours of sleep every single night. Your body needs to recover from the day and it uses sleep to repair damage that has occurred over the course of the day. If you aren’t getting enough sleep, then you aren’t giving your body the time it needs to rest and repair, and you will certainly feel those effects in the morning.

Exercise Regularly

Exercise may not be your most favorite activity, but if you suffer from stiffness, exercise and stretching are even more important. When you stretch and exercise, you help support healthy joints and help reduce the wear and tear they are exposed to every day. Adults should aim for about 150 minutes of moderate aerobic exercise (like swimming or walking) each week. Exercise also helps promote better sleep and increased energy, so waking up will be even easier.

Say No to Stress

If you’re under a lot of stress (which a lot of us are), it can impact many aspects of your life such as how you sleep at night or how you feel physically. Stress can even contribute to how you feel in the morning when you get up out of bed, so it’s important to find a way to relieve that stress. Meditation, exercise, massage, yoga – whatever works for you to help keep your stress levels in check.

Stretch and Shower

Before you try to get out of bed, take a moment to let your body wake up. Wiggle your fingers and toes, bend your legs and arms and get in a good stretch. It doesn’t have to be fancy to help reduce stiffness. You may also want to hop right into a hot shower. Not only does this feel nice, but the hot water can help loosen up stiff joints and muscles.

Patient Reviews

"My overall health has also improved because my allergies and my arthritis are also not as severe as they used to be. Dr. Stiles has always been very accommodating with her hours and appointments, and the staff is always friendly and welcoming. Over the years, I have recommended my sister, my best friend, my cousin and other friends to this office for chiropractic care."

"Excellent patient care and a convenient location.  Dr. Stiles technique is gentle and effective.  The office staff is professional and flexible.  The office hours offer a wide array of times for busy working people.  I switched from a chiropractor that I loved for the location and have not lost anything in terms of service.  I highly recommend for pain management, maintenance and wellness services."

-Ruanda G.

"Not the typical doctors office.  Dr. Stiles & staff are friendly and are flexible with appointments. And my neck and my back feel great!"

-Kevin T.

"Dr. Stiles is very gentle and caring and helpful in explaining what was wrong with my neck and spine. She came up with a treatment plan for me for the next few months. I was re-examined a few weeks ago and showed a lot of improvement! All without surgery. I highly recommend this chiropractic office."

-Monique P.

"Everyone in the office is very nice and helpful. I started going to Dr. Stiles because I had vertigo for more than a year. My doctor just told me it would go away eventually and prescribed Dramamine (which just made me feel sick). I decided to try this method as a last effort to get rid of it and it's worked. I couldn't be happier with the results from my visits here. I would (and have) recommended her to friends and co-workers."

-Jennifer M.

"I've been seeing Dr. Stiles for the past 10 years and in that time, my sciatic nerve has stopped flaring up. I also have had no more middle ear infections or ringing in my ears. I first started going to Stiles Chiropractic for what I thought was the beginning of carpal tunnel syndrome, my wrists, hands and fingers were numb and tingling. After a few adjustments, I was feeling much better and have not had that issue since.

-Dee M.

"Dr. Stiles has been my chiropractor for almost a decade. Regular visits to Dr. Stiles help me prevent tension from escalating and causing severe, debilitating pain that I've had in the past. I used to "throw my back out" once or twice a year, resulting in my being unable to move for three or four days. With ongoing maintenance, I'm happy to say that that rarely happens anymore, and if it does, Dr. Stiles knows me well enough to help fix it right away."

-Cathy H.

"I see Dr Stiles every week for neck pain and she is amazing! She is very kind and responsive to her clients. Highly recommended."

-Samantha M.

"Dr. Stiles is stellar! I am a resident of Los Angeles and any time I'm in town this is my go to place for chiropractic. Dr. Stiles is very thorough and educated on every joint in the body. I feel at ease and in good hands and most importantly well-informed through our entire sessions. I always walk out feeling taller and poised with a healthy body!"

-Kaila H.

"Wonderful! Best Ever! – I have been to chiropractors throughout my life (good and bad ones) but I have had the best experience here with Dr. Tracey. She gave me a very detailed exam and took the time to go over my exam and explain a treatment plan that will help me feel better in the long run. And I am all about preventative maintenance! She also explained my adjustment so well, I didn't freak out. Her office is wonderful, Friendly and warm!!"
