Weight lifting and Chiropractic

Check out this link from some powerlifters and how they use Chiropractic to improve their quality of life and performance.



It is not uncommon for professional athletes to receive regular adjustments to enhance their game. (Of course this translates into millions of dollars in contracts for them!)

Here is a list of several athletes/teams that utilize Chiropractic regularly:

NFL Teams: Check out your favorite team and see who their team Doc is by following this link. http://www.profootballchiros.com/about_us/Chiropractor_Roster_by_Team.html

Browse the rest of the links on this site. The videos are interesting.

Lance Armstrong: Here is a quote by Lance Armstrong in his book "Every Second Counts" Lance describes Jeff Spencer DC as "part doctor, part guru, part medicine man...while he fixed us physically, he also fixed us mentally...we believed he could fix anything." http://www.discoverwellnesscenter.com/custom_content/c_14912_dr_jeff_spencer.html

Tiger Woods: Yes, even Tiger needs to get adjusted. It might not fix all of his problems, but it will definately help his golf game.

College Athletes:
In 2006, a study analyzing Division I NCAA college athletes at inter-college sporting events in Hawaii found that chiropractic usage within the last 12 months was reported by 39% of respondents.

Well, I hope this will motivate more people to discover the benefits of Chiropractic and take advantage of it.

Yours in Health,

Chiropractic for kids

Kids lead very active lifestyles and need to get adjusted too. Trampolines, gymnastics, football, baseball, and all the craziness that kids get into can definitely cause a misalignment. Are they having a hard time sleeping at night, pain that none of the other Dr.s can explain why they are having it, or headaches? These are just a few signs that should trigger a visit to the Chiropractor. Children respond well to adjustments and usually take less treatments because of their youthfulness. Call our office if you want to set up a free consultation to discuss your concerns about your child's health. 775-882-3555

New Name for the Clinic

Unlike my blog, we have been doing alot of updates at our clinic in Carson City Nevada. We recently changed the name to Kona Chiropractic. If you can imagine yourself relaxing and enjoying your time on an island in the middle of the pacific then this is the clinic for you. Stress is a large factor in your rate of healing. We believe the more relaxed you are the faster you will heal. We also added massage therapy to our clinic. Robin Casey is our in house massage therapist and is in high demand. Call our office to book your appointment with her. Hot stone, deep tissue, swedish, relaxation are just a few of her fortes when it comes to meeting your massage needs. You might have noticed our new logo as well. If you really like it we will hook you up with a limited edition Kona Chiropractic T-shirt just for referring in you friends and family. We hope that you will enjoy the changes we have made and will continue to add more to our services to give you the best chiropractic experience in all of Northern Nevada. Aloha Dr. Russell and the staff at Kona Chiropractic
