Have you ever heard the phrase ‘train hard, recover harder’? It’s the idea that, regardless of if you have just given birth, are training for a 10k run, or are managing your everyday fitness; you’re training is only as good as your recovery.
This is especially true as we age. Our bodies simply require more time and energy to heal. Which makes chiropractic care and massage an important part of your recovery process – regardless of what life event(s) you’re looking to recover from.
At Willoughby Family Chiropractic, our care facility aims to help our patients ‘recover harder’. Whether choosing chiropractic care in Langley or massage services – our clinic is a multi-service centre that provides the care necessary for maintenance and recovery.
The Importance of Recovery Through Chiropractic Care

As mentioned in this blog post –
Your body holds a lot of stress within various parts of your being. Your muscles being the most noticeable through tension and headaches.
By utilizing massage therapy you can work at reliving this tension, bringing relief also to the feelings of stress in your body.
In addition, once your muscles have become more pliable and less resistant to movement, a chiropractic adjustment can then further benefit the alignment of your spine.
A lot of feeling “good” can simply come down to overall alignment and feelings of relaxation. When both of these areas of your body are addressed, if can help naturally increase your energy levels and overall wellbeing.
Dr. Mitch Spooner – Helping You Recover with Whole-Body Health
Admittedly, I am someone who grew up passionate about sports. I spent four years playing in the Western Hockey League for the Vancouver Giants, Regina Pats, and Seattle Thunderbirds.
Throughout my sports career, I found myself visiting a sports chiropractor for recovery care on a regular basis. Especially after suffering from a series of concussions, I became increasingly aware of the benefits that chiropractic treatments can provide.
This sparked my interest to work in the healthcare field where I can provide individualized care, and treat the cause of the problem, rather than just the symptom itself.
Which is also why I am passionate about the ‘recover harder’ mentality, understanding that recovery plays a massive role in lifelong health and immediate progress. Whether dealing with injuries, nutrition, rehabilitation therapy or wellness care for patients in all walks of life.
If you are seeking recovery through Chiropractic Care, we are here to help! Feel free to contact our Willoughby Family Chiropractic to inquire how we can do so, and begin your journey back to whole-body health.
Sincerely,
Dr. Mitch Spooner
