🏠💻 Your home office setup matters more than you think.

Working from the couch or kitchen table might feel fine at first, but over time it can put extra stress on your neck, back, shoulders, and wrists.

If you work from home, try this:
✅ Sit in a supportive chair
✅ Keep elbows near a 90-degree angle
✅ Place your monitor around eye level
✅ Keep feet flat on the floor
✅ Get up regularly to stretch and move

The goal is not just comfort in the moment — it is protecting your body from the wear and tear that builds up over time.

If working from home has been causing tension, stiffness, or pain, ASC can help with personalized care designed around your needs. 🙌

💙 Sometimes the right support can make a real difference.

The Serola Sacroiliac Belt is a supportive belt designed to help stabilize the pelvis and SI joint area, which may be helpful for some patients dealing with lower back pain, SI joint discomfort, or feelings of instability.

Why patients appreciate it:
✔ Low-profile fit
✔ Comfortable support
✔ Easy to wear under or over clothing
✔ Can help support movement and daily activity

ASC offers the Serola belt for purchase in-office for patients who may benefit from added support as part of a personalized treatment approach.

Want to know if it may help in your case? Ask ASC at your next visit or call us at (863) 701-2225.

🇺🇸 Military Appreciation Month is a time to honor the men and women who have served our country with courage, sacrifice, and dedication.

At ASC, that appreciation comes from a very real place.

Over the years, Dr. Brad Bartel and Advanced Spinal Care have been honored to support members of the military community in meaningful ways, including recent involvement with Flight to Honor, sponsoring celebrations such as St. Barbara’s Day, and supporting service members and their families through local National Guard events.

We know that behind every uniform is a person, a family, and a story of service that deserves to be respected and remembered.

To all who have served, and to the families who have stood beside them, thank you. Your sacrifice matters, and your service is deeply appreciated. 💙

ASC is also proud to support eligible veterans through the VA Community Care program, helping provide access to quality care closer to home. If you or a loved one is a veteran who could benefit from our care, give us a call. We’ll be happy to answer questions, check eligibility, or schedule an appointment.

🛠 Your car gets regular maintenance. Your body deserves the same.

You do not have to wait until you are in serious pain to take care of yourself.

Sometimes the best time to come in is when you are starting to notice:
✔ More tension than usual
✔ Mild stiffness
✔ Reduced mobility
✔ Small aches that keep coming back

Preventative care can help you stay ahead of discomfort instead of constantly playing catch-up.

At ASC, we believe in helping patients take care of their bodies proactively — because feeling better starts before the problem becomes a bigger one. 🙌

🌌 A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away… people probably still had back pain.

Good news: here on Earth, Dr. Brad is here to help. 😄

While Dr. Brad has been rumored to have super powers, the truth is that he does not use the Force to perform adjustments. What he does have is the experience and expertise to help patients through custom-tailored treatment plans designed for results.

From chiropractic care to massage therapy and more, Advanced Spinal Care offers personalized treatment options to help patients feel better, move better, and get back to doing what they love.

So, if the Force has not quite been enough to fix that tension, stiffness, or pain, it may be time make a call and let ASC step in.

May the 4th be with you — and with your spine. ✨
