What is Range of Motion?

Range of Motion, frequently abbreviated as ROM, is the measure of movement around a joint or body part. This measurement varies for each individual, but there are ideal ranges you should be able to obtain for optimal function.

Why should I improve my Range of Motion?

Good Range of Motion can increase your ability to complete activities of daily living and prevent injury. Chiropractic care works to restore proper alignment of the spine, thus promoting optimum function and movement. 

What else can I do to improve my Range of Motion?

Alongside regular chiropractic adjustments, regular exercise and stretching will help take care of your joints. Make sure to complete your at-home exercises as instructed by Dr. Ronda to ensure you get the most out of your care plan.
