Hello, everybody. Doctor Blake
here Calhoun Spine & Wellness. Want to talk to you today about something we see in our office every day. And that’s low back pain. Now, a lot of problems are a lot of times people develop these problems either by improper lifting or sitting too much. Sometimes it’s sports injuries.
For whatever reason, it may be. There’s some things I want to give you that you might could do at home to help alleviate your discomfort. The first tip I want to give you is a simple chair exercise where you sit in your, sit up straight in the chair and you just simply reach down and touch your ankles, hold this position for about a minute or two.
And then you can come on back up and you can repeat that two or three times. And that’s with all these tips that I’m going to show you today. The next exercise I want you to reach with your arm like you’re trying to get something off the ceiling and you’re about to come up off your on your tiptoes or out of your seat.
And then I want you to turn your torso 45 degrees and then go down again. Hold this to about a minute. or two. Only go down as far as you can stand it or it’s comfortable to you. Come back up and repeat that same thing to the other side with the opposite arm. Very good. Again, holding for one minute, only going to an area that’s comfortable to you that gives you a good stretch, but it’s not hurtful.
The next one is just, again, reach the arm, keep it extended and then lean directly to the side. Again, hold that for about a minute. Only go as far as you can where it’s just a stretch and not too uncomfortable. And then the same thing to the other side. Very good. Okay, so hopefully this will help you guys at home that is dealing with back pain.
If you can’t get a hold of this, I would be more than happy to help you here. We use all kinds of different things to help people get a hold of their lower back pain. So just give us a call.
Get started on your path to optimal health today.
I cannot say ENOUGH kind words about the staff @ The Spine and Wellness Center! I came to them about 4 months ago and feeling like what's the use "I'm always going to feel bad and there's nothing I can do about it!" My husband who was already seeing Dr Derrick encouraged me to take that first step and just meet Dr Derrick and see what would happen. I decided to at least go talk to Dr Derrick and Katie and see if I could get some encouragement that would spark some motivation. Sometimes we know what to do but not sure how to take those first steps in the right direction, and need a little gentle push. Dr Derrick developed a plan for me that included working with the Nutritionist Katie and Cody the Trainer and one step at a time has made a world of difference in my everyday life and attitude. I still have young children at home and work FT so I needed my mind and energy to handle everyday life and enjoy life to the fullest! I can say emphatically that Dr Derrick, Katie, Cody, Amber and Janita have given me back my zeal for life and I thank the Lord for using them to help me!!! May the Lord bless them richly! Thank you!!!!!!!!!!
Love this place! Staff are welcoming and friendly. Appreciate how Dr Derrick and Cody work together to help their patients get good results. I felt relief from my neck pain after the first visit. Knowing what exercises to do has been helpful! Thanks so much!

Best chiropractor ✨ and everyone is always sooo nice ✨✨
In less than a month they have taken me from living with back pain daily and barely being able to move around normally to virtually zero back pain and doing things that I didn't think I could do anymore.
I starting coming here about 4 months or so ago, with severe lower back pain, to which I was told that my muscles in between my discs were deteriorating. We began red light therapy, shock therapy, regular adjustments, and the all-core physical therapy. I have little to no pain anymore and finally feel like my old self. Staff is super helpful, kind, and communicative. Couldn’t recommend this place enough!
Wonderful staff and Dr. D is top notch! Always accomadating and sticks to appointment times. In and out and feeling better in no time. Thanks, Calhoun Spine Care and Wellness!!

The staff is very kind and helpful. I am very happy with my adjustments and they have made a difference. I have enjoyed the PT and the 360 machine. I have had 1 massage and it was great, she really knows her muscles and has some great techniques to release those tight tissues. I am having a great experience with Calhoun spine care and wellness.

I recently visited Calhoun Spine and Wellness Center and was very impressed. The staff made me feel welcome and cared for, and the facility is absolutely beautiful. Dr Derrick was very knowledgeable and explained everything in detail. I came in tight and slightly hurting, I walked out feeling much, much better. Looking forward to making this a routine deal. Highly recommend for anyone in need of chiropractic services!
This was my first time ever seeing a chiropractor. I suffer severe chronic pain in my back and neck that I have had for about 10 years. The doctor took x-rays of my neck and back and Then thoroughly explained in detail what he had found. During my first appointment, I had my first chiropractic adjustment and It was absolutely fantastic. It was the first time in years that my pain was significantly less after I was done. I don’t normally write reviews, but I have to give Calhoun Spine Care & Wellness Center 5 stars. I would recommend Calhoun Spine Care & Wellness Center to absolutely anyone who needs to see a chiropractor
So friendly, inviting, they’re very informative and I’m excited to start my journey with them
Katie gave be best massage I ever had. She relieved pain I had in my hip . I will be back monthly for massage !
I got a massage with Katie. She was wonderful! It was very relaxing and therapeutic. One of the best massages I’ve had
So grateful for Calhoun Spine and Wellness. I didn’t realize how in need of chiropractic care I was. After a thorough consultation I chose to do the Mobility Care along side my visits. I have built strength and have eliminated most all the daily pain I experienced. Dr. Blake always makes me feel comfortable and has taken time to listen to my concerns! Cody is very encouraging and has always walked me though mobility. Amber is ready to help with a smile! I will continue my fitness journey and chiropractic needs with this awesome team! Highly recommend!
I received a massage and it was wonderful. Very professional! She made sure I was comfortable and understood my needs.
I had a wonderful experience at Calhoun Spine Care and Wellness. They are absolutely amazing and truly make you feel like part of the family. I completed 3 months of adjustments along with the mobility training and I am so glad I made the investment. Not only did this experience help alleviate my pain but I can walk and move around better than before. Highly recommend!

Everyone was so friendly and knowledgeable. Katy did an amazing job with the massage. I'll definitely be back!
I have had unexplained leg pain for 4 years. I’ve been to numerous doctors and had massages at other places but no relief. I didn’t tell Katie about my problem but after her extremely thorough massage my leg pain is gone. Praise the Lord for sending me to someone like Katie who got to the root of my problem.

These folks are the best! Friendly and professional. I believe the message is the best I have ever had.
