Body struggling after the 4th holiday?

Independence Day is filled with parades and fireworks displays, and a common side effect of watching fireworks is stiff and sore necks and shoulders. Donā€™t be alarmed! This is easy to understand. All year long, people are focused on looking down at their children, computers, and cell phones. As a result, many people have conditioned their bodies to slump forward and down. Then, during the celebrationā€™s frenzy, we reverse this movement and extend their heads backward for long periods, looking at exciting fireworks displays.

Working from home this summer?

For many of us, summer means taking work home. Whether it's more downtime as a teacher or kids home for the summer months and a flexible schedule, many of us are doing more from home over the summer months.Ā Even though an entire book could be written about setting up home workstations, here are three recommendations that many of my work-from-home patients have found helpful.Ā

Testimonials

From Our Clients

As wellness of my whole body is the key for me, I would definitely recommend Dr. Donkin to my friends and family.

I would recommend Dr. Donkin to my friends and family just because of the fact that I have access to physical therapy, massage therapy, and chiropractic all in one place. Dr. Donkinā€™s staff is awesome, caring and knowledgeable as well!

Dr. Donkin made some adjustments to regulate my heartbeat, and it worked. Not only did I get a regular heartbeat, but also my back and neck feel so much better. He knows how to fix it!

Dr. Donkin has improved my health by making life more pain-free. He has years of experience and he came in on a Saturday when at first my pain was very bad. No doctor does that! I call him the ā€œSpine Wizardā€.

The adjustments that Dr. Donkin provided has improved my mobility with less discomfort and I am sleeping better. He is kind and accommodating.

Dr. Donkin has helped me move easier and I would definitely recommend him because he is nice, friendly and he does good work.
