Tension headaches often stem from tight muscles, poor posture, and restricted movement in the neck and upper back. Chiropractic care offers a targeted solution. Through spinal adjustments, posture correction, and soft tissue therapies like Graston and Active Release Technique (ART), we address the root cause—muscle tension and joint restriction. Graston breaks down scar tissue and adhesions, while ART releases tight, overused muscles that contribute to headaches. Combined with posture retraining, this approach relieves pain and prevents future flare-ups. Say goodbye to painkillers and hello to lasting relief. Book your chiropractic assessment with Dr. Rachel Poff at Origin Integrated Health and start living headache-free.

Q I just noticed that I can see certain things better without my glasses now. They’re new glasses, I just got them three years ago. What’s up with that?

A: Three years is actually more than enough time for your eyes to change, or for something to go wrong with your glasses. You can bring back your glasses to where you bought them to see what the issue is, but it sure sounds like you’re due for an eye exam in any case. Time goes pretty quick for just about everyone. Come see us at Mosaic for your eye exam or your glasses, or both!

Exercise has been shown to have protective effects against Alzheimer’s disease by supporting brain health and cognitive function. Regular physical activity promotes blood flow to the brain, stimulates the release of growth factors, and encourages neurogenesis—the formation of new brain cells. Exercise also reduces inflammation and oxidative stress, which are linked to Alzheimer’s progression. Studies suggest that both aerobic and strength exercises can improve memory, attention, and mental processing. Physical activity may also slow brain aging and reduce risk factors like obesity, diabetes, and hypertension, which are associated with Alzheimer’s. For optimal brain health, a consistent exercise routine is key.
