🇺🇸 Happy Columbus Day! 🇵🇹

Last Thanksgiving, our Director of Marketing, James Carpenter, a proud second-generation American, had the special opportunity to meet Dotti, his last surviving immigrant relative from Portugal’s Azores Islands.

Dotti shared how their family came to America as farmers seeking a better life, reflecting that while they gained so much, they also lost pieces of their heritage and traditions along the way.

Also pictured is a treasured family photograph of Dotti’s father and James’ grandmother, connecting generations of their family’s history.

As we commemorate Columbus’ historic voyage and reflect on America’s immigrant heritage, may we celebrate how far we’ve come without forgetting where we came from. 🇺🇸❤️🇵🇹

Recovery matters just as much as the workout. 💪🔥

Used alongside chiropractic care and massage therapy, cupping can help improve mobility, ease muscle tension, and support recovery from sports injuries and everyday soreness. 🏃‍♂️🏋️‍♀️

It uses gentle suction to loosen tight tissues and encourage circulation. It’s typically painless with minimal discomfort, and those signature marks usually fade within a few days. 👀⭕️

Sports injuries aren’t always just about pain or strength.

This article talks about proprioception, your body’s ability to sense joint position and movement, which plays a major role in how the shoulder responds after injury. That’s one reason chiropractic care can be important to consider as part of a sports-injury plan.

Good rehab isn’t just about getting stronger. It’s also about restoring control, coordination, joint function, and confidence in movement so athletes can return to activity more effectively.

Great clinical breakdown worth sharing. 👏

Shoulder stability is not only ligament and labrum. It is a sensory loop.

Mechanoreceptors in the capsule, ligaments and tendons — Pacinian corpuscles, Ruffini endings, muscle spindles, Golgi tendon organs — send afferent traffic up the dorsal column to the cortex. Efferent output returns to the cuff and the periscapular muscles. That loop is what keeps the humeral head centred while the arm moves.

It is why proprioception matters after a dislocation. The capsulolabral injury does not only remove a restraint, it removes the receptors embedded in it. Patients often describe apprehension before they describe instability, and that is the loop reporting a deficit the examination has not yet caught.

It is also why rehabilitation that stops when strength returns is incomplete. Strength without proprioceptive retraining leaves the reflex arc slower than the sport demands.

Our team is looking for Licensed Massage Therapists to staff Thursdays, Saturdays and Sundays, with flexible weekday availability as well.

We’re looking for patient-oriented, dependable therapists who want to work in a premier location and be part of a growing holistic and integrated practice with competitive pay and flexible scheduling.

Our goal is to continue expanding beyond just chiropractic or just massage. We’re building a more integrated practice for Longview and East Texas, offering massage therapy, chiropractic care, dry needling, spinal decompression, shockwave therapy and other on-site services to support pain management, mobility and overall wellness.
