Fitness Planning
At Community Chiropractic & Acupuncture, we practice holistic care that benefits you for an entire lifetime. Because our practice focuses on the nervous system and the biomechanics of the human body, our treatment has wide-reaching implications in overall health.
Here is a table that lists common patient goals along with lifestyle considerations that directly impact this goal.
| Your Goal | Your lifestyle |
| Pain relief | Posture, repetitive stress or direct trauma, degenerative injuries, workplace ergonomics |
| Healthy aging | Weight, mobility, healthy joints, level of activity, stiff joints |
| Improved range of motion | Stretching, posture, workplace ergonomics |
| Strengthening, muscle building and athletic performance |
Weight lifting, nutrition, overtraining, lung mechanics |
| Weight loss | Exercise, nutrition |
| Something else | All of the above |
Chiropractic and acupuncture are powerful forms of treatment that can help you achieve any personal health goal that you have set. But we cannot begin to create a personal fitness plan until we have conversed regarding your specific history and your thoughts regarding the outcome of a fitness plan. Along with all of the lifestyle considerations above comes a good dose of awareness: this is the first ingredient of change.
