Prolonged Rest Can Make Pain Worse

By Scorca

Here’s Why “I’ve been trying not to move it.” That’s something we hear often from patients dealing with neck or back pain. They avoid turning their head. They sit carefully.

Sitting is a Disease

By Scorca

Sitting is a disease and as time progresses, it is causing the premature degradation of spines that are subject to extensive daily sitting.

Muscles of the Back

By Scorca

In the chiropractic world, much importance is placed upon the vertebrae, those structures that build the spinal cord and provide you with your body’s structural integrity.
