What Chiropractors Have to Say About the Holidays

,

Driving the in-laws around, hanging lights, and shopping for just the right gifts – these are just some of the holiday tasks to get done. Individually, these tasks are no problem but when you combine all the things you need to accomplish with back pain – not so much. By following our tips, you can get your holidays done with a lot less pain! Here are our suggestions.

Shop Smart

When it comes to holiday shopping, you face long lines, traffic, and heavy bags, so don’t make things harder on yourself. Countless shoppers head from store to store, acquiring more and more bags with each stop. With all that to be carried, it can quickly lead to back, shoulder, and neck pain as the body compensates for all the extra weight. The more time spent shopping, the more the body will be weighed down. Instead of holding onto everything for your entire shopping trip, unload every so often between stores. Your back will surely thank you!

Sit Smart

This one might seem obvious, but all that time sitting in traffic can affect your posture. Many of our patients have a tendency to keep their wallet in their front pocket while sitting which causes the body to be in improper alignment, which then leads to back pain. Maintain proper posture when driving and remember to keep wallets, keys, phones, and other items out of pockets while seated.

Make Decorating a Family Affair

No one should have to handle all the holiday decorating alone! If one person has to take on that big job all alone, it can lead to injury and back pain with all the bending, lifting, stretching, and straining. Instead, everyone should hang their festive décor with another person in town. Not only does it make the task at hand more fun, it also reduces the risk of injury and pain.

Regular chiropractic care combined with these tips will make your holidays in Chicago (or wherever your travels take you) that much brighter. To learn more about how Dr. Tracey Stiles can help improve your health during the holiday season, click here!

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!!"
