Wellness Tips to Start the New Year Right

Have you made some new year’s resolutions to get healthy? Good health is more about habits than it is about goals. At Chiropractic Health Clinic in Omaha, we can provide chiropractic care following an injury, but we would rather you do what you can to prevent an injury from happening in the first place.

Sleep, Hydrate, and Stretch

Many health issues and injuries can be prevented by three basic habits:

Sleep well. Six hours is technically "enough," but eight is a full night's sleep. Find the time and get enough sleep. You will be more alert, more energetic, and less likely to hurt yourself throughout the day.

Drink enough water. Four quarts a day, or about a gallon, is the recommended amount for a typical adult.

Stretch before any strenuous physical activity. This is the best way to prevent a sports injury or throw your back out while lifting heavy boxes up and down the stairs. Even if you think you have stretched enough, stretch a little more.

See Our Chiropractors at the First Sign of Trouble

If you hear a rattling sound in your car, you probably head straight to the mechanic, right? Why not treat your body with the same care and respect? A little bit of preventive care right away can save you a lot of corrective care down the road. This is especially true if you have an old auto accident injury or an ache that is acting up. If it is a musculoskeletal problem, see our chiropractors in Omaha.
