Drink More High Quality H2O

With temperatures in the 90's and lots of outdoor fun going on, make sure you and your family are drinking plenty of water before, during and after outdoor activities and exercise. If you don't want to take my word for it, just listen to Bobby Boucher in the video below.

Hope you are having a great summer so far!

Spring Yard Work Tips To Guarantee A Trip To The Chiropractor

It is supposed to be a beautiful weekend here in the Lynchburg area so many of us will be heading outside for some yard work. If you would like to definitely end up in our office hurting next week, here are a few tips:

1. Rest breaks are for wimps. We had a long winter, but make sure you get all the yard work finished in the shortest amount of time possible.
2. Water is overrated. Who needs to be hydrated before starting and continue to drink lots of high quality H2O during activity anyway?
3. You don't need help lifting that tree. Don't bother asking for help from a family member or neighbor to move heavy objects. YOU CAN DO IT!!!
4. It will get better on its own. You don't need to stop, rest and ice your aches and pains. I am sure they will all just get better on their own even after you continue to over-stress your body.

There you go folks. We will see you soon!

P.S. Please note the sarcasm. Have a great weekend!

Why Should You "Like" Wimmer Chiropractic On Facebook

First off, thank you to everyone that has already "Liked" us on Facebook. I hope you enjoy the updates, articles and special announcements we share. 

If you have not yet clicked the "Like" button on the Wimmer Chiropractic page, here is a reason you should. Yesterday, we were without phones and internet at the office (thankfully fixed now). We could not answer phone calls or even change the voicemail message to alert everyone. Without internet, we couldn't update WimmerChiro.com either! With our cell phones, we at least had some access to email and guess what else! 

You got it...Facebook!

Through Facebook we could at least post an update on the situation.

What Does Your Doctor Go Through To Collect Payment?

Have you ever wondered what your doctor really has to do to collect from your insurance company, Medicare, personal injury attorney, and yes, occassionally from the patients treated?

This video is a pretty good analogy. The doctor's office is portrayed by the young paper delivery boy.

 

I'll admit not every case is this difficult, but some really do require a ridiculous amount of work. Be cooperative and patient with your doctor's office, because most doctors would rather spend time caring and assisting in improving the health of their patients than fighting the red-tape!
