Pickleball is the fastest growing sport in Houston. It's also becoming one of the fastest ways to end up in my office.

You don't have to be in peak shape to pick up a paddle and have fun β€” I get it. But when you go all out without warming up, your shoulder, elbow, knee, or lower back is usually the one that pays for it.

Already dealing with an ache? Or just want to keep playing without ending up on my table? Come see me.

Pickleball doesn't hurt your shoulder. It exposes what your shoulder couldn't handle before you ever picked up a paddle.

Same goes for your elbow, knees, and lower back β€” most of what I see in the office isn't bad luck. It's a body that skipped the warm-up.

Swipe for the 5-move sequence I actually walk patients through before they play. Takes less time than finding an open court.

Save this for game day. πŸ“

Still sore after playing? That's what I'm here for.

Not just relief β€” recovery. Today's full-body session targeted the spots that don't fix themselves: shoulders carrying stress, hips locked up from sitting all day, tension you've stopped noticing because it's just "normal" now. It isn't.

If your low back is sore after every round, it's not just "part of golf."

The golf swing asks your low back to rotate more than almost any other movement in daily life. When hip rotation is limited β€” which is common β€” the low back ends up compensating for what the hips can't do, and that repeated strain adds up over a season.

A proper warm-up before you tee off matters more than most golfers realize. It's often the difference between playing pain-free and feeling it by the back nine.

Not every ache is the same. Some soreness is simply swing mechanics catching up with you; other times it points to something that deserves a closer look. Either way, chiropractic care works best as part of a golfer's regular maintenance, not just something you turn to after an injury.

Real patients. Real results.

Swipe through to see what three different people had to say about their experience β€” from feeling truly heard during appointments, to avoiding back surgery, to getting back to CrossFit after a herniated disc.

If you're dealing with pain that hasn't gone away, I'd love the chance to help you get your own story like this.

Even massage therapists benefit from care in someone else's hands. This patient is a local massage therapist, receiving an adjustment at my Houston Heights office.

If tightness or pain has been building up, it's worth finding out what's actually causing it. I now see patients at two convenient locations β€” Houston Heights and Woodlands / Shenandoah β€” so you can choose whichever works best for you.

What is TMJ? 🦷 A quick explanation of temporomandibular joint dysfunction β€” and one of the most effective treatments I've used for it in 20 years of practice: dry needling directly into the jaw muscles.

If you or someone you know has been dealing with jaw pain, come on in and let's give it a try.

Some good news β€” I've added a second location. Houston Heights remains my main office, and I'm now also seeing patients at a Woodlands / Shenandoah office, an area I've practiced in for years.

Two locations, same personal care.
