Wellness & Lifestyle Advice

At Dr. Lawrence Benner Chiropractic, we believe that health is more than the absence of pain — it’s about living life to the fullest. Chiropractic care works best when combined with healthy daily habits that support your spine, nervous system, and overall well-being.

Here are some practical tips you can start using today:

Posture Matters

• Sitting: Keep both feet flat on the floor, hips and knees at 90 degrees, and shoulders relaxed.
• Standing: Distribute weight evenly on both feet, avoid locking your knees.
• Screens: Position your computer or phone at eye level to reduce strain on your neck.

Movement & Exercise

• Stretch daily to keep joints flexible and reduce stiffness.
• Walk regularly — even short walks improve circulation and spinal health.
• Strengthen your core — strong abdominal and back muscles help protect your spine.

Lifting Safely

• Bend at the knees, not at the waist.
• Keep the load close to your body.
• Avoid twisting while lifting.

Sleep & Rest

• Choose a supportive mattress and pillow that keep your spine aligned.
• Try sleeping on your back or side — avoid stomach sleeping when possible.
• Create a consistent bedtime routine for better recovery.

Stress & Wellness

• Chiropractic adjustments can help reduce tension.
• Practice deep breathing, meditation, or yoga for daily stress management.
• Stay hydrated — water supports healthy discs and joints.

Chiropractic care isn’t just about addressing pain — it’s about maintaining long-term wellness. By combining adjustments with smart lifestyle choices, you can enjoy greater energy, mobility, and resilience.
