Proper spinal movement is aligned with flexibility and strength. Having adequate flexibility of tissues around the spine and pelvis allows full normal spinal movement, prevents abnormal force on the joints, and decreases the possibility of injury.
Stretching exercises prepare muscles for activity. Stretching before and after a workout can prevent muscles strain, soreness and help to avoid injuries. Stretching exercises will help improve your flexibility and strengthen muscles.

I can't actually remember how or when I met Dr. D. I've been a patient for years. I'm sure glad I did. My life was hectic and still is. I was an IT consultant for many years then changed careers and became a massage therapist. I thought that would be easier on my body. Wrong! I was hurting even more; hand pain, arm and shoulder pain, back and neck pain. You name it, I had suffered from it. After taking time to explain what was going on in my body, Dr. D proceeded to treat me for some time. It wasn't easy, it took several months, but I learned that after years of abuse that I had put my muscles and joints through it would not get better overnight. Today, I am able to practice and work with very little discomfort. I still have to manage my career and exercise routine, but thanks to the way Dr. D treats I know what to do to help myself and what things to stay away from. Its refreshing to meet a professional who clearly loves what he does.
