It’s easy to see how the condition of our bodies can have such a profound effect on our overall health.

What is your physical condition? Are you receiving good nutrition, drinking plenty of water, getting regular exercise and maintaining the appropriate weight for your height?

Consider these aspects of physical health and then rate your current physical health across the following areas:

  • Weight
  • Posture
  • Strength
  • Energy level
  • Endurance
  • Personal hygiene
  • Quality of sleep
  • Diet and nutrition
  • Recreation
  • Vitality

Dr. Powell  Asks some important questions of interest to Scottsdale residents - Chiropractor Scottsdale Dr. Powell Asks...

How long does it take to form a bone spur?
Many who begin chiropractic care think their problem happened "last week when you bent over funny." But pictures of the spine tell a different story. Chiropractors know it can take your body years to deposit the calcium necessary to form a bone spur. It's your body's response to stress due to gravity or joint malfunction. And chiropractic care can help.
Is a muscle spasm a cause or an effect?
With the knee-jerk use of muscle relaxers, you'd think it was a cause. But it's an effect. Chiropractors know that bones don't move unless muscles move them. And muscles don't contract unless commanded by the nervous system. That's why your nervous system is the focus of our Scottsdale chiropractic practice.
