COVID-19 Chiropractic Care & Precautions

3/30/2020

Dear Practice Members,
We have decided to open for emergent and injury care beginning April 1. You can read our original response to the COVID-19 outbreak, here. We have been very closely following the outbreak numbers in both Snohomish and King Counties. We still believe strongly that it is important to continue to stay home for all non-essential purposes.

However, we also know that a number of our patients need continuity of care. We want to be available to continue to provide necessary and essential chiropractic care for our patients. Please keep reading to learn about the office procedures we have implemented and precautions we are taking to keep our practice members, our staff, and our community safe.

This is a fluid situation and further changes may be needed.
We will keep you updated here on the blog!

Daily Spinal Hygiene

3/24/2020

Hello Practice Members & Friends!
If you've been around McCann Family Chiropractic ("MFC") for any period of time, you've probably heard Dr. Matt talk about the importance of daily spinal hygiene. Just like brushing your teeth, these daily exercises will help keep your spine feeling fine. :)

In all seriousness, this simple 3-minute routine done daily (preferably twice daily!) could make a big difference for you, especially now while we are taking a short break. It's a great time to make new good habits and stick to them!

COVID-19 & McCann Family Chiropractic

3/17/2020

On Sunday night, March 15, we made the very difficult decision to suspend routine chiropactic care for two weeks at our facility while we are in the midst the COVID-19 outbreak. We love chiropractic! We believe (strongly) that it provides essential immune system support. We believe even more strongly that in these unprecedented times, being socially responsible and limiting contact for a short period is simply the right thing to do!

Auto Accident: Time for Chiropractic!

12/30/2019

Did you know that nearly 3 million Americans are injured in car accidents each year? Of those hurt in a serious crash, more than half end up facing lifelong injuries. It’s true that even smaller incidents, such as fender bender taps, can cause long-term pain and suffering throughout the body as well.

Come One, Come All!

6/20/2019

One of our favorite months of the year is June.
YES! Of course we love the change in weather.
YES! Of course we love the fresh produce and farmer's markets.
YES! Of course we love the amazing camping trips we take.
Also, though, our boys absolutely love to participate in the Burlington All Comer's Track Meets*!

Our oldest two participated in a "Kids Run the Nation" program this Spring, so these track meets were the perfect culmination to their weeks of hard work. Dr. Matt loved taking an early afternoon to participate and see his boys compete.
