  Time. Now we're back to the basics and healthcare with Balance Life Chiropractic,
• 0:03
  and we have doctor Harley joining us. I doing Doctor Harley. Hey,
• 0:06
  John, I am doing fantastic. You know, the weather is getting nicer,
• 0:11
  spring feels like it's finally here's Yeah, we're officially halfway through spring.
• 0:15
  Mayday I just discovered was the halfway point. So Monday was the halfway point.
• 0:19
  We're halfway to summer already. It seems like springs hardly started, I
• 0:23
  know, but it's it is getting nice out and this is a good time
• 0:25
  to spend time outside. But when you're outside you're enjoying the outdoors, there
• 0:29
  are some things that can kind of come up that maybe cause a little issues
• 0:32
  with health, aren't there. Yeah, So one thing I want to talk
• 0:35
  about, you know, as the weather is getting nice, or we're starting
• 0:37
  to think spring cleaning projects, get the outside all nice, gardening, all
• 0:43
  those things, so people are going to start getting out more. And if
• 0:47
  we spend all this long winter inside and we really haven't been doing a whole
• 0:50
  lot, you know, because the weather has been kind of crappy so far.
• 0:52
  This springs again just haven't been as active. Yeah, take it easy.
• 0:57
  You know, all that hunching over and doing stuff, you're gonna go,
• 0:59
  oh oh, my back. Right. You know, we might be
• 1:00
  a little late with the gardening planting stuff, but you know it'll be fine.
• 1:04
  You'll get there. Don't try to rush it and get all done in
• 1:07
  one weekend and you're hurting yourself the next couple of days. You know,
• 1:11
  the biggest thing is, like, it's still exercise, so make sure you're
• 1:15
  stretching, getting ready for that, drinking lots of water, et a good
• 1:19
  meal before and after, taking care of yourself so that way your garden doesn't
• 1:23
  end up becoming a chore. It can still be that hobby, the fun
• 1:27
  thing that you like doing. And I suppose some people deal with allergies,
• 1:30
  which we've talked about a lot, but that's another thing that if you're outside
• 1:34
  a lot more, if that is something that you deal with, it that's
• 1:36
  going to be flaring up a little bit more as well. Yeah, I've
• 1:38
  been seeing a lot that in this wind lately has been really kicking up the
• 1:42
  dust. Oh yeah, yeah, So make sure that you're taking precautions.
• 1:47
  You know, allergies are going to cause a lot more inflammation in your body,
• 1:49
  so it's gonna be a lot easier to potentially hurt yourself, especially if
• 1:53
  you're overdoing it. That's why I say, really make sure you're taking the
• 1:56
  time to plan out what you're gonna do, taking breaks, drinking water,
• 2:00
  stretching, and if you do end up hurting yourself, make sure you're doing
• 2:05
  something about it. Don't just wait. Yeah, So I've been seeing a
• 2:07
  lot of people in our office for a lot of flare ups, you know,
• 2:10
  twists turns that they were doing or they woke up you know, didn't
• 2:15
  realize what they did yesterday how it's feeling. So if you're one of those
• 2:17
  people that you know, you were working hard over the weekend and you wake
• 2:21
  up Monday morning and you're like, oh man, I'm really sore or I
• 2:23
  should do something, don't wait till Friday, you know, start looking at
• 2:28
  earlier in the week or sooner rather than later, because the things you have
• 2:30
  going on now, you know, the underlying issues are still going to be
• 2:34
  there even if the pain slowly goes away, because all it's going to take
• 2:38
  is doing the exact same thing again for it to come back. So,
• 2:42
  you know, seeing a chiropractor we can help make sure we're getting to like
• 2:45
  the underlying cause why this stuff is happening to help you have a better,
• 2:49
  happier spring and gardening season. It makes a big difference as well. And
• 2:52
  now I can never remember, but I know you've got a way for us
• 2:54
  to remember when we're supposed to use ice and we're supposed to use heat,
• 2:59
  because that's something if somebody does kind of pull a muscle or hurt themselves when
• 3:02
  they're you know, raking their yard or getting things ready, how do they
• 3:06
  know which one to do if it's ice or if it's heat. If you're
• 3:07
  feeling like a key height, you know that's going to feel more muscular,
• 3:12
  that's a meal, more type muscles, So using heat for that. If
• 3:15
  it's kind of sharp, stabby throbby kind of pain, they're more likely joint
• 3:21
  it's inflamed. Using ice to help calm that down. Nice. We're kind
• 3:24
  of a good way of looking at it. Very good. And if somebody
• 3:28
  maybe would like to stop and see you and make a chiropractic part of their
• 3:31
