Women's Health and Chiropractic Benefits
This Mother's Day has been up to this point a celebration of all that our mothers have done for us. We write little sweet notes regarding how they guided our hand as we learned to write, how they supported us through the trails of teenage woes, and how maturity brought the knowledge of how they are the backbone of our career choices. I believe I thanked my mother for all of the above, and maybe added a few lines regarding knee scratches, bike accidents, and that tattoo I never told her about. But this is beside the point.
Mother's are the strongest beings out there. Not because of everything we learn from them, but because of how much they suffer. That's right, how much they suffer! You think it's easy to hunger for a platter of food that little hands are grasping at? They can't eat anything without sharing it. And how many times do they pick up after us, on the brink of tears, because their back aches and their family consistently won't use the laundry basket? Or the working mothers, that stress over the education provided to their kids, and in what ways they can mentor them best? Motherhood is not for the weak, and definitely worth an entire month of acknowledgement (at least!).
One thing is a fact: women put themselves on the back-burner, whether they are mothers or not. Because of the shear strength they possess, it is easy for them to think for the greater good of the family, of the household, of their working environment, and of their friends, rather than focusing and taking care of their own needs. This can be their health, their passions, and even their careers.
Women's Health Benefits with Chiropractic Care
