Talaya Frazier, seen here on the cover of Runner’s World, stopped into see one of Boston's Best Chiropractors last Sunday for an adjustment, before running the Boston Marathon!

Hip Pain During Boston Marathon Training

Seeing as how the marathon is just next monday I thought today’s post should be about the most common problems I’m seeing in the office with runners. At this point, the longest run of their training is over, and they’ve been able to see how their bodies are going to hold up for the majority of the race. The most prevalent injury I’m seeing after this long run isn’t really an injury at all, it’s an annoyance for most people. It’s described as a “pinching” or “jamming” in the hip joint. Symptoms include slight pain in the front of the hip or side of the hip, restricted motion when bringing knees to the chest, or just a feeling of something not being right in the hip itself.

Stretching Before vs. After Exercise – Copley Square Chiropractic

If you live in Boston you have inevitably noticed the summer weather we’re finally experiencing… and you may have been so excited that you threw on your sneakers and bolted out of the office to get a quick walk/run in. You can’t walk down a single street in Boston without seeing people out and about. But along with this new found activity level Boston is experiencing comes an inevitable question… when to stretch? Before… after… does it really matter? Lets take a look at the physiology of stretching.

Migraine and Tension Headaches

Why does my head hurt again? I didn’t do anything, I didn’t drink too much, I didn’t hurt myself, but my head is still killing me… why?

This is an extremely common complaint that many Boston Chiropractors hear in their offices. People dealing with constant headaches and not understanding why they won’t go away. Fortunately, there is always a cause of headaches and it’s not because “it’s just how I am” as many people think. There are skeletal, muscular, hormonal, nutritional and neurological causes to headaches and once we find out where the headache is coming from we can take steps to cure them.

HBO Special Says Nutrition is the Key To Weight Loss

If you tuned into the HBO special last night, The Weight Of A Nation: Confronting America's Obesity Epidemic, you probably noticed 2 major themes. The first, and most crucial, is that obesity is killing more people and ruining America's Healthcare system faster than any other health issue... and it's not even close. The money it takes to take care of obesity related diseases such as diabetes and heart disease is disturbing to say the least...

TMJ PAIN: What is it? And what you can do about it.

People come into our Boston Chiropractic office on a daily basis and say "I'm here to see the chiropractor because I have TMJ" so this post is for those of you who have experienced the jaw pain, neck pain, headaches, or inability to chew that is associate with "TMJ."

The first thing to look at is the acronym "TMJ"... what does it stand for? The medical name is Temperomandibular Joint. If we break this down further into its separate parts we have three separate terms. The first word is Tempero, which truly means Temporal. The temporal bone is part of your skull. The second word is Mandibular, which means mandible...which means Jaw.

In between each vertebrae of the spine are shock absorbers called discs. They are like large pads of cartilage that prevent each bone from rubbing against each other. Similar to how a knee has cartilage to keep it moving, the spine has discs to keep it moving. I like to think of a disc as a jelly doughnut because each disc has an outer layer which is stronger, and an inner layer that is more fluid. Similar to a jelly doughnut. When someone bends forward the jelly in the middle of the disc will naturally be pushed... READ MORE

I'm always getting asked about "other things" people can do to decrease their pain, when they can't make it into the office. Luckily, in my former life I was a personal trainer so I've always got certain exercises or stretches that can help some of the time. A few people need weight loss, some people need muscle strength, and others need a different way of thinking...Check out our blog to read more

If you turn your hand over, palm facing the ceiling, and look down at your elbow you'll see a bump on the inside that sticks out a bit. That bump is called the medial epicondeyle of the elbow and on the opposite side of that bump is another smaller bump called the lateral epicondyle. Both spots are attachment points of the forearm muscles. The medial epicondyle is where the flexor muscles attach (the ones that flex your wrist in a "come here" motion) READ MORE

Testimonials

Facet Joint Syndrome

After spending all of 2011 following the instructions given to me by my primary care giver, physiatrist, physical therapist and occupational therapist, I was left in as much pain as I began with. When I visited Dr. Lockwood for the first time, I knew that her approach to treating my unbalanced structure would provide results. Unlike the specialists I sought out the previous year, Dr. Lockwood took the time to evaluate me as a whole system. She gained a solid understanding of my lifestyle, workplace, physical level, previous injuries, and eating habits, as well as my level of commitment to making the necessary changes. By my third visit, I was enjoying relief from chronic pain for the first time in over a year.

While the adjustments themselves were helpful in providing pain mitigation, it was everything else Dr. Lockwood did that impressed me the most. She researched different ergonomic chairs for my workplace, dietary supplements to help with inflammation, and stretches and exercises that target specific muscles. She sent me articles on facet joint syndrome and foods to eat or avoid when experiencing joint pain. It is the combination of all of these things that led to my continued improvement. As her patient, I felt as though she genuinely cared about my struggle and she took more time that any doctor I’ve met to help resolve the issue.

As a professional within the health insurance industry I found Dr. Lockwood possessed a strong business sense and was able to work within my insurances guidelines to provide me with the care I needed hassle free. With the growing cost of health care and sometimes confusing explanation of benefits, I recognize and appreciate her ability take this stressful aspect off my plate.

While I’m going to miss Dr. Lockwood as my chiropractor, I have no doubt she will excel in medical school, giving her more opportunities to improve the lives of her patients. She possesses a level of dedication to her patients that I would love to see in more doctors!
