Skip the guess work
Not all care is created equal.
If the only thing changing is the date of your next visit, it might be time to switch the approach — not the appointment time!
You’ve upgraded the shoes, the bed, the gear—so why does your body still feel off?
Because no piece of equipment can fix poor movement patterns.
If you really want to get the most out of your gear, it starts with how your body moves.
When movement feels off, it’s not about replacing the gear, it’s about retraining your body.
👉 Let’s figure out what your body’s really trying to tell you. Book a Free Discovery Call to start!
✨The “plan” you get at traditional PT or chiro:
➡️ Stretch a little
➡️ Do that one exercise you vaguely remember
➡️ Come back next week
➡️ Hope for the best
You didn’t fail the plan—there wasn’t one.
Ready to break the cycle of static treatment? DM us “PLAN” to learn what a treatment plan could look like for you!
Expect to move.
Expect to sweat a little.
Expect to get stronger.
Expect a customized plan that doesn’t just manage your pain — it solves the problem.
✅ Hands-on treatment
✅ Rehab that fits your goals
✅ A focus on strength, performance, and prevention

This isn’t your typical chiropractor’s office… and that’s the point!
Pain doesn’t end with passive treatment—it ends when we rebuild strength, restore movement, and teach you how to stay out of pain for good.
This space lets us do just that.
💪 Want to lift, run, golf, or train without holding back?
👟 DM us “REBUILD” and let’s get to work.
That look you give when the weekend was all play, no pause 🐾
We hope you’re ending the weekend exhausted but happy and ready to get back to your routine!
💭 Still stuck in the cycle of quick fixes?
Drop a comment or DM and let’s talk.
Manual therapy can help — but if your care ends there, you’re missing the point.
Because pain isn’t just about what hurts — it’s about why it hurts.
Weak glutes, poor movement patterns, lack of control… they all show up eventually.
So we don’t just treat symptoms — we train you to move better, lift stronger, and stay out of pain for good.
🔥 DM us “READY” if you’re tired of cookie-cutter care
Happy 4th of July!! 🎆
Getting out of pain is just the first step.
Traditional chiropractic care often stops there.
But if you want long-term change, you need to address why the pain started, build strength, and improve how you move.
That’s what rehab chiropractic is all about.
DM us “REHAB” and let’s get you out of pain, prevent it from coming back, and work on getting you to a high performance level again!
If you know, you know.
The psoas stretch isn’t for the weak😬
The psoas is one of the most neglected muscles in the running world — but when it’s locked up, you’ll feel it everywhere. Low back pain? Hip tightness? Trouble hitting full stride? It all starts here.
This isn’t a feel-good massage. This is targeted, strategic, functional care for athletes who want to move better — not just feel better for a day.
So yeah, it’s uncomfortable. But it works.
📲 Ready to stop running through pain and start running with power?
DM us “PSOAS” and we’ll help you get started.
If your last chiro only had you on the table the whole time, they missed a big piece of the puzzle.
✅ Hands-on treatment is important.
❌ But it’s not the only answer.
We blend treatment and movement so your body can actually hold onto the progress — not just feel better for a day.
Send this to someone who needs more than a quick fix!

⏰ and 💸 is what your pain costs you everyday
When your “rehab plan” is just a list of 12 random exercises printed off Google… 🛩️
Here’s the thing: generic care leads to generic results. And if you’ve been handed the same sheet as the last five patients, it’s no wonder your pain keeps coming back.
Recovery shouldn’t be guesswork — it should be tailored to your body, your goals, and how you actually move.
We build custom plans that actually get you back to doing what you love — not just going through the motions.
📲 DM us “REAL PLAN” if you’re tired of the copy-paste approach and ready for care that actually works.

#BackPain #ChronicPain #FixTheRootCause
Many people think chiropractic is just about quick cracks and instant relief 🩹
That’s often what’s shown in short videos and viral clips and what most people who have seen a Chiro experience.
Rehab chiropractic is different. It’s about understanding why you’re in pain, not just where it hurts ✅
That means spending time on exercises, posture work, and finding the root cause of what’s holding you back.
Curious how this approach could help your pain?
📲Let’s chat — click the link in bio to schedule a discovery call!
Return to sport isn’t just about pain relief
⛷️Ready to crush it on the slopes this winter? Let’s talk about one of my favorite off-season exercises: the skater exercise (and similar lateral movement drills)!
Why are they so good for skiing?
⛷️They mimic the side-to-side power and stability you need when carving downhill!
When you’re skiing, your legs aren’t just going up and down—they’re pushing side to side, controlling your speed and balance through every turn.
That’s exactly what skater exercises train: explosive lateral power, dynamic balance, and core control.
🏋️♂️ Plus, they’re a great way to challenge your cardiovascular system and endurance—two things you’ll thank yourself for when you’re powering down the hill all day long.
💡 Pro tip: Start slow, focusing on form and balance. Then add speed and intensity to really feel the burn!
If you’re getting ready for ski season or just want to move like an athlete, skater exercises should be in your rotation 🎿
Let’s talk about what’s really causing your low back pain – and why adjustments alone aren’t the answer. 🛑
Your low back doesn’t live in isolation. Often, the real issues lie in:
👉 Core control – how well you can stabilize during movement.
👉 Hip mobility – if your hips are stuck, your low back pays the price.
👉 Balance – poor stability makes everything else work overtime.
👉 Shoulder issues – yes, your shoulders play a surprisingly big role in how your back feels.
Adjustments can help. But if we don’t address these bigger movement patterns, the pain will keep coming back.
Your low back deserves better than a quick crack. Let’s fix the root cause together. 💪

You don’t need endless appointments.
You need the right plan that fixes the root cause
What can’t you do because of your pain?
Some days it’s just enough time for a few reps between patients.
Something is better than nothing.
If a starting a fitness routine is on your to do list but you don’t know where to start, keep it simple and keep it short.
Movement doesn’t have to be running marathons or 100 mile bike rides. If that’s where it takes you, amazing!
Starting with a short walk, amazing!
Something is better than nothing.
🎿 Healthy skiing isn’t just about winter workouts. It’s about what you do today!
Dynamic strength and stability work now can save you aches and pains later.

🎯 Let’s actually solve it this time
Too many of us accept that stiffness, aches, and random twinges are just “normal” as we get older. But here’s the truth: waking up in pain isn’t a normal part of aging—it’s a sign that something is off.
👉🏼 Our bodies are built to move well and feel good throughout our lives. If you’re waking up with discomfort, it’s usually because of issues like:
• Poor movement patterns
• Muscle imbalances
• Joint restrictions
• Old injuries that never fully healed
These problems don’t magically appear with age—they build up over time. And the good news? With the right approach, you can tackle them head-on and start your days pain-free.

At BIA, we love working with people who prioritize their health and fitness and set goals for themselves along the way.
If sports aren’t your thing, but you love being active and want to stay active, we value that as well.
Let’s talk about how we can keep you moving!
Most people’s experience with chiropractic treatments leave a lot to be desired.
20 minutes, crack and pop, see you in a week because you’ll be in just as much pain.
That’s why I offer a free, 60-minute visit. I want you to understand the value in what I do as a rehab chiropractor.
Send this to your friend who swears by their generic, endless cycle of chiro treatment 😬
You probably live in an area that is saturated with options for traditional chiropractic or physical therapy care.
So why is what we do different from them?
1️⃣. Time & Communication: We always do 60-minute, 1-on-1 sessions. This gives us time to listen to, assess, treat, and teach without rushing through your care.
2️⃣. Actual Rehab: Rehab is part of healing. If you’re not rebuilding strength and movement patterns, you’re just managing symptoms. We use strength-based rehab to help you stay out of pain for good.
3️⃣. Education: We will always make sure you understand the root cause of your pain and our job is to provide movement coaching to you so that you can take an active role in your rehab.
If you’re still unsure how rehab chiro treatment will keep you doing the things you love to do, we offer a free discovery call through the link in our bio!

Don’t ignore your personal dashboard
You’ve been stretching like a champ… but that one muscle still feels tight no matter what you do. 😤
Here’s the thing no one tells you 👇
That “tight” feeling? It’s often your body’s way of saying something’s weak — not that it needs more stretching.
In this case, we ditched the daily stretching routine and started loading the muscle with strength work 💪
Boom. Real change.
✨ Stretching has its place, but it’s not the whole fix — especially if you keep chasing the same tension and getting nowhere.
➡️ Not sure if you’re dealing with tightness or weakness? Come in for a free discovery visit and we’ll figure it out together.
DM us “DISCOVERY” to grab your spot.
“I’ll take of this when…
“I Have time”
“My kids are older.”
“I retire”
“The pain gets worse”
“Just rest” isn’t always the best advice.
Avoiding movement might feel safer, but it can actually slow your recovery.
Gentle, controlled motion helps reduce inflammation, improves blood flow, and teaches your body that movement is safe again.💡
⠀
As a rehab chiropractor, I see this all the time: the longer people stay still, the harder it becomes to get moving again—physically and mentally.

Printouts aren’t challenging enough
Keeping you consistent and tracking your progress is the key
A lot of people come in and say,
‘My X-ray showed arthritis… so I guess that’s why I’m in pain.’
But here’s the thing—arthritis shows up on imaging all the time,
even in people with zero pain.
So just because it’s there…
doesn’t mean it’s the reason you’re hurting.
I’ve worked with plenty of patients who were told to just live with it—
but once we addressed how they moved, how strong they were,
and how their body worked as a system…
The pain got better.
They got stronger.
And they got back to doing what they love.
You’re not your X-ray.
You’re how you move.
And that can be changed.
Most people wait until the pain forces them to change—because trusting a new path takes courage.
You tried a few stretches and hoped for the best last year.
But your back still lit up halfway through every ski day.
Let’s not repeat that.
This isn’t just about core strength or random PT exercises.
You need a plan that targets your real problem.
One that’s built for your body and your goals—
Not a cookie-cutter fix made for the general public.
We train skiers to stay pain-free, powerful, and confident—
not just on day 1, but through spring corn.

It’s not “just how it is now.”
It’s your body warning you that it’s not prepped for what you’re asking it to do.
You can get back to where you were—but not by jumping in full speed with zero plan.
Shin splints, aches, and burnout are avoidable.

As Dr. Yoda Says
“Stiffness leads to aches, aches lead to skipping out on workout, skipping out on workouts you love… leads to suffering”

Running is full-body coordination.
When knee pain shows up, it’s rarely just the knee’s fault.
Tight hips… weak glutes… poor foot control…
The problem often starts somewhere else and shows up at your knee.
