Search Me: What medium is used more than Google? The answer is …. wait for it, wait for it …. NEWSPAPERS! Unbelievable? Not if you’re one of the 131 million Americans who have read a newspaper in the past week. In print and online, newspapers deliver more customers in seven days than Google does in a month (126 million), according to Scarborough Research, 2013 R1.
If you’re not reading newspapers yet, remember it’s never too late to get in on a great thing. And if you’re in business and want to reach the masses, there’s no better way to reach a large fan base than through America’s daily and weekly newspapers.

Most neck and back pain is caused by a combination of factors, including injury, poor posture, chiropractic subluxations, stress, and in some instances, disc problems. Chiropractic adjustments, acupuncture and other therapies may help alleviate the pain and heal the underlying problem. If you are suffering from neck or back pain, please call our office at 641-732-4665 for an appointment.
