Tips for a Healthy and Hydrated Summer

August is upon us, and we have been dealing with record heat this summer. It is very important to STAY HYDRATED!

hydrated and healthy summer

Here are just a few signs that our body could be giving us when we’re dehydrated:

  • Headaches
  • Dizziness
  • Low energy levels
  • Muscle cramps
  • Infrequent urination
  • Darker than normal urination

A good rule of thumb for water consumption is to drink 1/2 of your body weight in ounces, siding with over-consumption during the hot summer months.
(i/e a 180-pound person should consume about 90 ounces of water daily.)

While this may sound like a lot of H2O, we have you covered with a few tips to give you a bump in your water consumption:

  • Drink a glass of water before you brush your teethhydrated glass of water
  • Use a water-tracking phone app (we like the free app My Water Balance)
  • Buy a reusable water bottle with an infuser to make more flavorful water
  • Enjoy a glass before each meal (which may also aid against over-eating)

Please get in touch with the office if you have any additional health questions or want a one-on-one consult about optimizing your health. We wish you all a happy, healthy, and hydrated summer! Move Well, LIVE WELL!

What Our Patients Say

I was nervous at first to go to a chiropractor, but this experience completely changed me. Not only did my lower back pain go away, but my sciatic pain did as well! The staff is amazing, especially Dr. Dockery! I recommend this office to everyone and anyone with back issues!

Nick D

Thanks to Dr. Dockery, my pain I had for years is almost gone, my headaches are less often and my back pain is no longer a daily problem. He also helps with my TMJ pain. I'm grateful to have found a doctor that actually listens and helps me!

Marissa G.

Dr. Dockery now owns and runs this clinic and is doing a great job. He is always friendly and willing to listen, focuses on fixing the areas of your body that are painful or troubling you, and gives a very thorough treatment that is worth every penny. I highly recommend him to friends, family, and all with back issues.

Phillip V.

Dr. Dockery is a wonderful chiropractor! You can really tell how passionate he is about chiropractic and how he truly cares about the wellbeing of his patients. The office space is nice and I felt very welcomed at my first visit. I've been recommending him to so many people since this is my first visit with a chiropractor and I had such a great experience. Will definitely be coming back- thank you!!

Randi K.

I am a truck driver and spend the majority of my day sitting. I haven't had back pain since I started coming here. Great people, great hours and best of all very reasonably priced. If you are looking for a chiropractor, look no further.
