Have a Healthy Thanksgiving!

Seasonal Tips

We are in full swing with Thanksgiving preparations, focusing on all the delicious food that is to come! Unfortunately, accompanying the Thanksgiving feast is stress, overeating, and stomachaches. By making smarter food choices, you can learn how to avoid overeating. See how to have a healthy Thanksgiving with these five tips.

Drink Lots of Water

Hydration is essential year-round, but especially before a big meal. Water helps your body determine whether or not you are starving or if you are eating for the sake of eating. Keep your appetite under control by drinking a lot of water throughout the day to avoid sneaking bites of pumpkin pie before dinner.

Snack Throughout the Day

Fasting before Thanksgiving might seem like a good idea, but it leads to overeating. Instead, eat a healthy breakfast in the morning to stay energized and satisfied throughout the day. It is also important for you to make smarter food choices throughout the day. For example, rather than snacking on chips and dip, choose crunchy vegetables and healthy dips. Snacking throughout the day will keep you feeling full, but you will still have room for dinner!

Eat Slowly

We know it sounds easier than it is, but it takes your stomach around 20 minutes to signal your brain that you are full. So, the key on how to avoid overeating is to take your time while eating. The average person overeats during those 20 minutes, causing stomachaches later on. Pacing yourself will help. Enjoy every bite of your Thanksgiving meal as you take pauses between bites.

Don't Head to the Couch

While you'll probably feel like just lounging on the couch after all that turkey, staying active with a healthy Thanksgiving stroll can help you feel better. After eating, take a walk around the neighborhood with your friends and family. While burning some calories, this is also a great way to stretch after sitting for an extended period.

I have been going to Williamsburg Chiropractic for two months. It is clear that the doctors at this practice are dedicated to helping their patients feel the best that they can. I love that the intake process includes taking x-rays, as it provided me with a clear picture of my structural imbalances and helps me understand more deeply how the adjustments are helping to realign my spine. There are also incremental body scan check-ins which reveal the progress my nervous system is making as a result of the adjustments over time. The office is also very efficient with wait times. Highly recommend!

Williamsburg Chiropractic is a quality practice all around.The front desk staff are always kind and responsive, Dr. Hoffman & Dr. Thomas are informative and consistently demonstrate expertise in their field, and I've never had a single billing issue (even while using my medical insurance plan).I highly recommend scheduling an appointment with Williamsburg Chiropractic if you're experiencing any pain or discomfort - no matter the severity - as they may be able to help!

I suffered from a pinched nerve from my neck running down my arm for 3 months. It stopped me from working out which I had been doing daily. Went to a physical therapist for 2 of the 3 months. Did acupuncture regularly. Visited a neurologist. I did not want to take any medication to get rid of the pain, but nothing was working. Until I found Williamsburg Chiropractic.After very thorough examination and 1 week of treatment, we had established the reason for my pinched nerve and the pain had reduced by 60%. 2 weeks after that the pain was completely gone and I am now back to my routine of lifting heavy weights. BIG BIG thank you to the amazing people at Williamsburg Chiropractic. I am forever grateful and VERY HIGHLY recommend them to anyone suffering from any sort of body aches.

I tweaked my back weightlifting, and it was pretty painful to say the least. Within one session with Dr. Hoffman, I was in significantly less pain, and in two sessions in two days I was near back to normal. If you're debating a holistic route to pain, this is a great place to start. They x-ray you so they know exactly what they're working with and are very patient with explaining everything going on with your body. Would recommend!
