S-T-R-E-T-C-H!!!

Many of us have strenuous  jobs.  Dentistry is one of them.  For the last 30 years, I have found considerable benefit from treatment by chiropractors.

They believe there are five health-related components of physical fitness:

• muscular strength
• muscular endurance
• cardiorespiratory endurance
• body composition
• flexibility

Flexibility is the ability to move your joints and muscles through a normal range of motion, and a regular flexibility and stretching program has the following benefits:

• increased circulation to muscles, nourishing them, eliminating waste products and decreasing recovery time after injury
• improved posture with loose muscles and less discomfort
• better coordination due to improved range of motion to maximize balance and mobility
• stress relief, because loose muscles are less likely to spasm during periods of tension

Several health-related web sites have simple stretching programs available.  Finding a routine that best fits your lifestyle can make you feel better and younger!
