Bridge Chiropractic: T'was A Chiropractic Christmas!

http://www.bridgechiropractic.com/ 360-574-5944

T’was the day before Christmas,

but there was no cheer.
No jingle bells jingled, no sound of reindeer.
The word had gone out that Santa was sick.
There would be no visit from jolly St. Nick.

The people were sad; no gaiety sounded.
For Christmas had come,

but Santa was grounded.
He drove down the road,

and what should he see?
But a sign for a doctor, who was a D.C.

Now Santa was not one to like a new tactic,
But all else had failed, so he tried Chiropractic.
He entered the office and saw at a glance,
in a place such as this, illness hasn’t a chance.

The office staff smiled, the music was sappy,
with all of the patients contented and happy.
In a very short time, to judge by the clock,
he was in the adjusting room, talking to Doc.

It must be the hurry, the tension and all,
I simply can’t seem to get on the ball.
Life used to be easy;

just kids, toys and whistles,
now I dodge smog, spaceships and missiles.

And Doc, take a look at the size of this pack!
Have you any idea what it does to my back?
Poor Santa was miserable and just barely able,
with the help of the Doctor, to get on the table.

The Doctor was gentle;

without a fuss or a tussle
he examined the vertebrae

and relaxed every muscle.
He spotted trouble and then with a click,
started aligning the spine of old St. Nick.

Santa felt aches and pains slipping away
and in no time at all he began to feel gay.(really?)
The air was a tingle with new fallen snow
and a healthy Kris Kringle was rarin’ to go.

As he went out the door, he threw them a kiss;
why, it had been centuries

since he felt good as this!
Then once more he shouldered

the bag full of toys,
his heart overflowing with true Christmas joys.

 

Merry Christmas!

Have a safe and

happy holiday.

Holiday Stress Increases Back and Other Health Risks

http://www.bridgechiropractic.com/ 360-574-5944  Take a Few Steps to Protect Your Back and General Health Over the Holidays.....

Be aware of how you lift things like heavy packages, an armload of firewood or that frozen turkey. It's so easy to just bend over and pick up something too heavy. Lifting with your legs instead of your back, as well as keeping heavy items close to your body as you lift, may save you a trip to the chiropractor and certainly will minimize the chances of injury. 

If you're doing the cooking and standing for extended periods of time, use a foot rest, stack of books or pieces of wood to elevate one foot about six inches above the floor. This will relieve tired leg and back muscles. When you use a foot rest and alternate each foot, it also helps to improve your posture.
