Stretch Before You Play

Stretching before a sport will help promote proper circulation, improve coordination and flexibility, reduce muscle tension, and prevent muscle strain. Without proper stretching, tissues may shorten over time and become fatigued, creating an opportunity for injury.

Dr. Nathan Blackwell has been playing baseball since he was five years old and has been weightlifting since he was 16 years old. Over the years, Dr. Nathan has noticed the positive effects of a 15-minute stretching routine pre and post-practice or exercise, which has been great for limiting soreness and maximizing performance throughout the years.  


At Clairpointe Family Chiropractic, we have a great book we refer to titled "Stretching," written by Bob Anderson. Each page has specific stretches for all types of sports. Below are some of the top sports our patients play, and these are the stretches we recommend using from the book. By clicking on the sports photos below, you can print off the appropriate stretches you would like to practice at home. 


To perform your best all year long, remember to get adjusted by your chiropractor, put on your sunscreen, hydrate, and, most importantly, stretch before you play!

🍃Natural Immunity

Natural immunity has always been the best way to protect yourself during the cold and flu season. There are five areas where you can make your immune system stronger and prevent illness. 1.) Get Adjusted! When your Atlas and Axis vertebrae (top two in your spine) are adjusted by a chiropractor, it directly stimulates your brain stem, which runs your immune system. The stronger your immune system, the less likely you are to get sick.  2.) Drink lots of cool, clean water every day. Your immune system runs on electricity, and your body acts like a battery to store that electricity; and like any battery, the immune system must be fully hydrated to work best. Tap water has chlorine and fluoride, which need to be filtered out, spring water is just someone else’s tap water, so purified water is best. 3) Take your daily vitamins. Stress, exercise, and daily life deplete essential nutrients in your body, which must be replenished for you to be healthy. Eating good food alone is not enough. Vita
