  • What You Wear

Continually wearing the wrong items, such as a heavy backpack or bag on one shoulder, can cause injury to your health.

You probably wouldn't connect getting ill with what you wear, but perhaps you should. When it comes to being healthy, you probably don't give your clothes or accessories a second thought. The reality is that what you wear or carry could play a crucial role in your health, even making you ill if you continually wear the wrong items, such as a heavy backpack or bag. Clothing fit is also an important consideration for health.  Clothes or accessories that are too tight can constrict blood flow, reduce your range of motion and cause discomfort.

From your head to your toes, what you put on your body on a daily basis needs to be considered for total wellness.  Below are some of our recommendations for back saving wear.

  • A Back Saver Wallet
    Category: Health & Wellness, Wellness Essentials, What You Wear

    Most men carry a wallet in their back pockets and in many cases it can be over a half an inch thick. Sitting on a half inch wedge for hours at a time over a period of years is one of the most overlooked causes of spinal misalignments and spinal pain including back pain, neck pain and even headaches.

    Another important wellness essential product is an ergonomically designed backpack. It is amazing how we can put thousands of pages of data onto a microchip smaller than the eye can see, yet kids are carrying backpacks that are heavier than ever filled with text books. Many schools are taking away kid's

  • Buy Good Shoes
    Category: Health & Wellness, Wellness Essentials, What You Wear

    Most people spend close to two-thirds of their life in shoes, so wearing shoes that fit well is very important. Our feet endure tremendous pressures daily. For example, an average day of walking brings a force equal to several hundred tons on your feet. Feet are subject to more injury than any other

  • Orthotics
    Category: Health & Wellness, Wellness Essentials, What You Wear

    Your feet are the base that your body stands on. If your feet are weak or have structural problems, this can lead to problems in your knees, hips and low back, and can even cause headaches. Many people wear orthotics because they are good for their feet, but orthotics are even more important for those

Testimonials

Reviews By Our Satisfied Patients

  • "I have found Brien Chiropractic Clinic to be both professional and helpful. I am very satisfied with my treatment as well as the friendly and welcoming staff. I would and have recommended this office to friends and family. My job as an educator is very stressful. I find Dr. Brien’s services help me to deal with this daily stress."
    Laurie Breaux - teacher
  • "Dr. Brien and his staff are wonderful. As a patient for 10+ years, they have treated me for several ailments. Dr. Brien treats me like family and has always had genuine concern for my well being. I have referred and will continue to refer my family and friends."
    Jamie Mayeaux - Fitness Instructor
  • "I have been a patient of Dr. Brien for several years now. I wasn't a firm believer in chiropractic care but after many years of suffering with a recurring back problem and 'traditional methods' of care leaving me with only brief periods of relief, I made the decision to give Dr. Brien a try. I noticed a difference right away. Dr. Brien put my concerns at ease with the first visit. The brief periods of relief I was accustomed to receiving from traditional methods, were now replaced with extended periods of relief without the use of medications. I can't put into words how much I appreciate the efforts of Dr. Brien and his staff."
    John Gros - Operator
  • "Massage therapy has improved the quality of my life tremendously. Riki knows my needs and applies the appropriate therapy to decrease my back pains and headaches. Her personalized care makes me feel like I am her most important patient. If you want individualized care, Brien Chiropractic Clinic can meet your needs."
    Tresa Webre - Assistant Superintendent
  • "Before receiving treatments, I suffered from tension headaches multiple times a month. There would even be times where the headaches were weekly. With a combination of treatment from Dr. Brien and the wonderful staff at the clinic, my "headache horror" is fully under control."
    Jessica Thomas - Teacher
