Six Months In!

It is hard to believe that around six months ago, we officially opened the doors to Redenius Chiropractic, and just seven months ago, Lake City 24 Hour Fitness opened.

We are writing this blog post to THANK everyone who has supported us over the past six months. We owe the success of both businesses to those of you who support us and support local businesses in the Calhoun County area.

Less than a year ago, we bought the building and began renovations (see pictures below).  It is hard to believe how many changes the building has underwent and how much we have grown in just a short time period.

Since opening in July, the fitness center has already brought in a fourth treadmill and a new stationary bike with virtual reality capabilities. The fitness center still holds classes like Strong by Zumba and Yoga. Many community members continue to utilize the personal training services offered from Melissa Schliesman and Ashley Duncan. There have been fun, weekend and evening class options like Yoga and Coffee, a Night on Nutrition, Strong and Tea, and various other events. We look forward to bringing more of these fun events to the community in the future. We continue to be impressed by how many community members have taken action on their health and make exercise a priority!

Redenius Chiropractic has also undergone many changes since opening in August. Dr. Redenius has been seeing many new patients. He now in-network with most insurances, including HMO insurances! He is just one of two chiropractors in the county and the only one in the Lake City/Rockwell City area that accepts this type of insurance. To the therapy room, Dr. Redenius has added cold laser therapy. In just a few week since having cold laser therapy, he has seen excellent results with his patients. Haley Abbott, our massage therapist, has been getting phenomenal feedback, and her appointment times are now filing up quickly. Just recently, we added a receptionist, Kate, to our Redenius Chiropractic team.

We continue to see more and more people look to be preventative about their health care by making regular appointments, visiting the fitness center, and incorporating Juice Plus into their diet. Word is starting to spread about how great Juice Plus is. You can still learn more about it today by calling 712-464-3301 or visiting Redenius Chiropractic. 

Thank you again to everyone for all of your support. It is exciting to think of how much more we can bring to the community in the next six months!

Top Five Gifts to Give Yourself this New Year

Happy almost 2017! We'd like to share with you the top five gifts to give yourself at the start of 2017. Make this year a great year by taking care of yourself and your family! Happy New Year to all!

1. Foam Roller

Using a foam roller is a great way to loosen muscles and ease tension in your back, legs, and hips. It increases blood flow to muscles and creates better mobility. Using a foam roller is a great way to work out knots in your muscles and ease tension. Foam rollers come in a variety of sizes, densities, and textures to fit your needs.

2. Massage

Many individuals consider getting a massage to be a luxury that only takes place after especially stressful days or for a special occasion. Regular massages, however, increases your immune function; decreases stress; decreases pain or discomfort; improve physical fitness by reducing muscle tension; and boost mental health. These are just a few of the many benefits regular massages bring with it. Call 712-464-3301 to set up an appointment with our fabulous massage therapist, Haley Abbott, LMT today!

3. A Better Pillow

A good pillow is one that promotes proper neck posture and doesn't leave your neck and shoulders stiff in the morning. You may not even realize that you are in need of a better pillow. There are many commercially available ergonomic pillows that will make all the difference when sleeping. Your pillow may just be the cause of neck tension/pain or headaches.

4. Regular Adjustments

Here at Redenius Chiropractic, we believe that regular adjustments are key to living as healthy of a lifestyle as possible. Whether it be for back pain, neck pain, injuries, or just preventative health care, Dr. Redenius can help you feel better overall. Don't wait until pain strikes to make an appointment. Pain is the LAST signal that something is wrong. Be proactive and call 712-464-3301 to schedule regular appointments today.

5. Better health through diet and exercise

We can go on and on about the research that supports how having a healthy diet and incorporating exercise into your lifestyle can improve your life in more areas than one. Don't put off taking care of you! Stop in to see Dr. Redenius today to see how proper nutrition and exercise can dramatically change your life.

Blog Post Four of Five Giveaway: 5 Questions with Dr. Redenius

Hello everyone!

In order to kick off the holiday season, we are going to do a series of five blog posts (December 1-5). If you "Like" our Redenius Chiropractic Facebook page (https://www.facebook.com/redeniuschiropractic/?fref=ts) and SHARE all five blog posts, you will be in the drawing for a brand new Smart TV!

This week, I sat down with Dr. Redenius and asked him a series of five questions relating to overall health and chiropractic. These are some of the most common questions he gets asked at the clinic. Read on to see his responses!

1) What is the most impactful thing or activity a patient can do to improve his or her own overall health?

Dr. Redenius: The number one thing they can do is to become proactive. Get rid of excuses, and work on improving your health (diet, exercise, preventative care) every day of your life. Not just when you are in pain, have a symptom, or feel like you are overweight or out of shape.

2) What is the most impactful thing or activity a patient can do to get the most from their chiropractic care?

Dr. Redenius: I would definitely say being active in your care. Patients are used to showing up to a doctor, receiving a pill, and their only responsibility is to take the pill until it runs out. Getting the most out of your chiropractic care requires patients to show up to all appointments, be preventative in regards to maintaining proper alignment, and staying consistent with any at home exercises or recommendations.

3) Do you have to have a referral to see a chiropractor, and how long does an adjustment take?

Dr. Redenius: No, you do not need a referral for the chiropractic care or therapies we offer at Redenius Chiropractic. A new patient visit may take around 45 minutes as I do a physical, x-rays if needed, and an adjustment. Once you've had your initial visit, your appointment may only take 10-15 minutes if you are just getting an adjustment or 15-30 minutes if you are getting any form of therapy as well.

4) Does chiropractic care help all ages?

Dr. Redenius: Yes! I treat patients who are infants as well as patients who are older. Chiropractic care is the least invasive treatment for many issues people of all ages face.

5) What is your favorite thing about being a chiropractor?

Dr. Redenius: Aside from the look of amazement on someone's face when they feel relief from their first adjustment, I have just really enjoyed helping our community members feel better, get healthy, and embrace preventative health care.

Have a great day!

Blog Post Two of Five Giveaway-- Want to lose weight this winter?

Hello Everyone!

To kick off the holiday season, we are going to do a series of five blog posts (December 1-5). If you "Like" our Redenius Chiropractic Facebook page (https://www.facebook.com/redeniuschiropractic/?fref=ts) and SHARE all five blog posts, you will be in the drawing for a brand new Smart TV!

Today, we'd like to share out some information on how you can begin feeling like the best version of yourself this winter. Multiple studies show that the average American gains anywhere from one to eight pounds throughout the course of the holiday season. For many of us, the pies, mashed potatoes, and decorated cookies are just too good to pass up.

And we shouldn't pass them up. Some of these holiday traditions should be enjoyed and celebrated. So, how can you enjoy these things while not overindulging? The key is to enjoy these things in moderation. 

And for those of you who are looking to lose a little weight, build lean muscle, or just get healthier, we have a plan for you!

Dr. Redenius does NOT suggest cutting out entire food groups to lose weight. He does NOT suggest avoiding all sweet treats at the holidays. And he does NOT suggest making multiple changes right away.

His background in nutrition and exercise science combined with his own real life experience has shown him that crash diets that promote cutting out entire food groups; making dramatic changes all at once; and totally abandoning sweet treats at the holidays just do not work.

The diet plan he will form for you will fit your lifestyle. It involves planning your meals ahead, eating the right portion size, bringing many more fruits and vegetables into your diet, replacing empty calories with proper nutrition, and incorporating a little exercise into your daily routine.

If you would are looking to lose weight now, or if you are planning on making it a New Year's resolution, call Redenius Chiropractic at 712-464-3301 today! Dr. Redenius will work one-on-one with you to meet your weight-loss goals. Also, if you would like to get your family member  gift certificate to join the fitness center, stop by the clinic today!

We hope you have a great day!
Have a great day!
