Why Prevention and Long-Term Care Matter

Hey, welcome back to the Wellness Minute. I’m Dr. Brent Johnson.

Let me ask you something—did your back pain really start last week? Or has it been building for months… maybe even years?

Here’s the truth: most of the pain people feel today didn’t start yesterday. It’s the result of small breakdowns in the body over time—whether from poor posture, repetitive motion, past injuries, or just the wear and tear of daily life.

Your body is incredibly adaptive. It finds ways to compensate when something isn’t working right—but that compensation comes at a cost. A tight hip leads to lower back strain. A weak core leads to overworked shoulders. And eventually, your body reaches its limit.

That’s why preventative care is so important—and why waiting for pain to show up often means you’re already behind.

When you come into our office, we look at the full picture. Not just where it hurts today, but how your body is moving, where the imbalances are, and what habits may be driving dysfunction.

Through regular chiropractic adjustments, soft tissue work, and functional movement assessments, we can catch small issues before they become big problems. We also give you strategies to strengthen, stabilize, and protect your body long-term.

Think of it like taking care of your car. You don’t wait for the engine to break down before getting an oil change. Your body deserves the same proactive care.

So whether you’re in pain or just want to stay ahead of it, we’re here to help. Call us or visit our website to set up your next appointment.

Take care, and talk soon.
