Dr. Strickland Asks some important questions of interest to Meridian residents - Chiropractor Meridian Dr. Strickland Asks...

How do chiropractors help ADHD?
There is agreement that ADHD is a nervous system disorder. And while chiropractic isn't a treatment for ADHD, if your child has vertebral subluxations, resolving them will often produce profound results. Click here to learn why more and more Meridian parents are choosing natural chiropractic care rather than dangerous psychotropic drugs.
What causes vertebral subluxations?
Chiropractors acknowledge three types of stress: physical, chemical and emotional. When the adaptive capacity of your body is compromised, weakened areas along the spine can become involved. Muscles tighten, spinal joints lock up and nearby nerves are affected. The purpose of chiropractic care is to find these areas and restore balance, alignment and motion.

Massage Therapy

Better Life Chiropractic now has a Massage Therapist as part of our health care team. Now you know us, we wouldn’t rush into hiring just anybody. We only get the best doctors and the best staff, and now we have brought onto our team a gifted Massage Therapist.

Allow me to introduce Junko Agena. Born and raised in Japan, she has undergone extensive training and in the great state of Texas where she acquired her Massage license. And now she moves here to Meridian where she will rebuild her clientele. Of course, training and licensing doesn’t mean anything if you don’t have that “healing touch” and caring hands to match. Well, I can tell you whole heartedly that she has all of the above.

You’ll be in good hands.

Massage, when it is combined with chiropractic care can be an unbeatable team.

Boise Area Residents, Don’t Feel Guilty About Getting that Massage!

Every muscle in your body hurts and you’re just aching to get a massage, but it seems like such an extravagance in terms of money and time. Yet, many different activities make up a good wellness routine and massage is just one of those elements in addition to nutrition, exercise and chiropractic care. So don’t feel guilty when you call to schedule that massage!

Physical, mental and emotional health benefits of massage:
  • Massage improves the circulation of oxygen-carrying blood to the extremities and helps in eliminate wastes from the body

  • Massage relaxes you, relieves stress and anxiety, and supports feelings of general wellbeing

  • Massage works with your chiropractic care to retrain muscles that support your spine

  • Massage helps in managing the pain associated with certain physical conditions, such as arthritis and sciatica

  • Massage serves to either stimulate or relax the nervous system, depending on the type of massage being administered

  • Massage may have an effect on weight loss it helps to burst fat capsules and the fat is reabsorbed into the bloodstream

Just keep in mind that a massage is not a substitute for chiropractic care! Although the two may work in conjunction with one another, massage provides “feel good” therapy while chiropractic adjustments keep your nervous system functioning properly. That’s far more important than a temporary “feel good” luxury!
