Let me ask you something honest about how your back feels after a long trip. Have you ever felt like your spine is just compressed after sitting in a cramped airplane seat? Like someone took your whole body and pushed down from the top, leaving you shorter and tighter? This feeling is not in your […]

Let me paint a picture that might sound painfully familiar to you right now. You wake up and before you even get out of bed, you take inventory of your body. How does the back feel today after yesterday’s long flight through the airport? Is your shoulder tight or loose compared to how it felt […]

You run through this mental checklist every single morning without even thinking about it. Pain has become a background character […]

The idea of someone sticking needles into my skin to help my back pain sounded like something from an old movie. I was skeptical, maybe even a little scared. But then I tried […]
