Family Fridays at Nimmo Wellness

You can tell that it is almost springtime around the office. Thanks to patient Wendy S. for bringing in the great daffodil bouquet this morning. The cherry blossom trees out front are also starting to bud.

Every day is a great day in the office, but on Fridays are especially fun. I call it Family Friday because I not only take care of patients but I also take care of the people I love the most- mom, dad, wife.  My wife Tiffany comes in for her weekly adjustment after swimming at the Princess Anne rec center (check out the Tie Dye 5K Run/Walk for the Arts poster in the background, she is coordinating the run on April 2, early bird pricing expires March 15). She has had some slight knee pain in the last few days. The rotation of her hips was affecting her knee causing torque on her femur. I adjusted her hips and unlocked her tibia where it had rotated. I also adjusted her ankle, relieving stress on that side of the body so nerves could function properly. Finally I gently released tension from the iliotibial band to get it to relax. We both have major workouts scheduled for this weekend in preparation for Boston Marathon so operating at 100% is important to us both.

On a side note, I also liked this Friday in particular because my North Carolina Tarheels just beat Miami in the ACC tournament. Go Heels! Have a great weekend everyone!
