The Dad Life
For many dads, the busyness of work and family responsibilities has taken over their daily lives, and self-care has long been forgotten. Their diet consists of fast food eaten at their desk or in the car during their commute, and they consume enough coffee to caffeinate a small village each day. All of this sugar and caffeine revs up an already hyped-up and stressed-out nervous system. Over time, the average dad today is not just overweight and out of shape, but may also be struggling with chronic health challenges like ADHD, anxiety, allergies, chronic headaches, sleep issues, and continual back and neck pain.
After being wound up for so long, they become worn out and exhausted. While they often think about getting healthy and back in shape again, they have no drive or energy left to actually get that done. Unfortunately, chiropractic care is often the furthest thing from their minds.
Even for those dads who do work out and try to eat healthy, the demands of work and family life can still stress their nervous systems to the max, leading to many of the same challenges.
Chris’s Transformation
That was certainly the case for Chris, an incredible rockstar dad who was experiencing bad allergies, migraines, and constant sinus infections before seeking help in our office. He was always on antibiotics, and everything he tried just seemed like a temporary fix.
He had watched as his wife and kids started chiropractic care and received amazing results, but just wasn’t sure it would work for him. Finally, the stress and tension reached a breaking point, and he made getting into the office for chiropractic care and neurologically-focused adjustments a priority. From there, everything changed in a matter of just a few weeks!
With each adjustment, Chris could feel the pressure and fog lifting. He could move his neck and shoulders more freely, his allergies and sinuses finally cleared up, and he felt way more energetic as the weeks went on. Chiropractic care became a regular part of his life!
How Chiropractic Adjustments Help Break Through Stress
Unfortunately, far too many people have a limited view of what chiropractic care can do for their health, simply because most medical doctors and even many chiropractors focus solely on back and neck pain. They fail to understand the crucial connection between the spine and the nervous system.
But just ask yourself this question: When you’ve got a nasty headache, tense neck and shoulders, and back pain, how well do you sleep? How’s your mental health and mood when you’re in constant pain? Do you feel like working out and playing with your kids when you’re chronically tense and exhausted?
Everything in the body is intricately connected and controlled by one thing—the nervous system. The nervous system controls everything, from muscle tension and function to digestion, immune health, sleep, mood, mental and emotional health, focus, and so much more.
In today’s fast-paced world, the average dad’s nervous system is running on dial-up internet while trying to keep up with a 5G lifestyle. It’s just not sustainable.
The Neurologically-Focused Chiropractic Solution
This is where Neurologically-Focused Chiropractic Care comes in and serves as the greatest health hack of all time! We call it a health hack because when looking to help
parents get healthy once again, we’ve got to remember one crucial element—they’re insanely busy and have limited time in their schedule.
That’s the beauty of Neuro-Tonal Adjustments that our doctors use—they’re fast and easy.
The majority of our patients get in and out of the office in under 10 minutes, yet get as much (or more) health benefit from one incredible adjustment as they would from a workout, massage, and meditation session! It’s truly incredible how much change adjustments can make in a short amount of time, which in turn gives you more energy and better function so that you feel like working out, eating healthy, and getting a good night’s sleep!
Dads who are under care will tell you—chiropractic care is the greatest health hack of all time.
Once you start getting adjusted, you can expect significant improvements in your mood, focus and concentration, emotional health, gut and immune function, and so much more.
Perfect for Busy Parents
Being a busy dad myself, I completely understand the need to figure out a health game plan that can fit in between all the demands of work and family life (aka driving your kids to 862 sports and activities per week). With our specialty in Pediatric and Family Care, we’ve worked especially hard to make sure your adjustments can fit within your busy schedule, and we get you real results in a short amount of time!
Your first consult and exam appointment takes just 20-30 minutes and includes getting your INSiGHT Scans, which will show us exactly where all of your stress and tension are built up and stuck, and how truly worn out your nervous system is.
Then from there, you’re off to the races! Each adjustment takes less than 5 minutes, and leaves you with decreased tension, more energy, improved gut and immune function, and so much more!
Just Take the First Step
We always encourage our dads and every “wound up + worn out” parent to simply take things one step at a time. Start by getting adjusted, and don’t worry about anything else for the first month. Let your nervous system finally begin to relax, unwind, and recharge… and then take it from there.
Once you start sleeping better and having more energy, you can take that momentum and energy into the rest of your life and begin working out more, making better lifestyle choices, and rebuilding your health one step at a time! And guess what? We’ll be there to help guide you and provide support all along the way.
