In football terms, the nervous system is the "quarterback" of the human body. You should get adjusted and give your nervous system and immune system a boost when you start to feel sick and/or on a regular basis to fight against illness . Call (605) 334-8000 to schedule a time to give your nervous system and immune system a boost. Your body will thank you for doing so. #FFCW #siouxfallsfamilychiropractor​ Read More

Steve Kerr: "...rehab, rehab, rehab..."

There is a time and place for surgery, but it should always be sought out as the last resort for patients. All too often, surgeons over promise and under deliver in terms of the long-term health outcomes. Unfortunately, these surgeries come with very serious long-term risks. Conservative treatments, such as chiropractic, should always be the first priority for patients. Golden State Warriors Head Coach Steve Kerr has issued a very stern warning to all men and women about the importance of natural health care over invasive surgical options. This warning should be taken to heart. “I can tell you if you’re listening out there, stay away from back surgery,” Kerr said. “I can say that from the bottom of my heart. Rehab, rehab, rehab. Don’t let anyone get in there.” If you're interested in experiencing how chiropractic care can improve your health and overall quality of life, please call (605) 334-8000 to schedule an appointment with Dr. Fahrendorf. An improved quality of life is waiting for you. #FFCW #siouxfallsfamilychiropractor Read More

How to Fight the Flu Naturally

One is the best ways to fight the flu and preserve a strong immune system is to avoid sugar and processed foods. Processed foods are loaded with preservatives and fake sugar to help preserve the food (if you can even call it that) on the store shelves and in your kitchen cupboard for an extended period of time. It is all about money and profits. In addition, vitamin D is the closest thing to a panacea (cure all) in the nutritional world. The benefits of vitamin D supplementation range from preventing depression to cancer. Vitamin D is manufactured by your body in response to sun exposure. We South Dakotans, and Midwesterners for that matter, receive inadequate sun exposure in the winter, and when we do go out in the summer we are advised to wear sun blocking agents. The net result is that we do not get enough vitamin D and many of us are chronically deficient with very significant health consequences. You can have blood tests for your vitamin D status or you can, as I do, just take some vitamin D every single day. You should take a minimum of 5,000 Units per day of Vitamin D3. Not to mention, vitamin D is incredibly affordable. You can buy a 3 month supply for less than $20. #FFCW #siouxfallsfamilychiropractor Read More

Dr. Fahrendorf's Mentor: Dr. Tim Fargo

Dr. Tim Fargo mentored Dr. Fahrendorf throughout chiropractic school with his monthly round table lectures. Dr. Fargo opened up his office to all chiropractic students to answer all their burning questions about how to become a better chiropractor, adjuster, and business person. Dr. Fahrendorf was also fortunate enough to be trained in Dr. Fargo's office as his intern during Dr. Fahrendorf's final year of chiropractic school. There is not a more passionate individual about chiropractic and natural health and wellness than Dr. Fargo. Dr. Fargo was instrumental in teaching Dr. Fahrendorf much of what he knows today, including how to assess and adjust all upper and lower extremity joints. Dr. Fargo was the Minnesota Vikings chiropractor for 13 years. Here is a great news story from 1995 by the CBS affiliate, WCCO, in Minneapolis showing Dr. Fargo in action. Thank you, Dr. Fargo, for all your mentorship, guidance, and wisdom. Dr. Fahrendorf will always be grateful for all you have done for him. Please call (605) 334-8000 if you are interested in experiencing how chiropractic can have a incredibly positive impact on your life and want to see how Dr. Fahrendorf treats his patiens. #FFCW #siouxfallsfamilychiropractor Read More

2017 Masters Golf Tournament

The 2017 Masters Golf Tournament tees off today and concludes on Sunday afternoon. The Masters is the super bowl of golf; it is truly the “Grand Daddy” of them all. Did you know that chiropractic care is great for golfers? Chiropractors are experts in the musculoskeletal system and provide a safe, natural, and drug-free alternative to relieve pain, increase overall performance, decrease recovery time, as well as offer preventative health benefits vital to keeping the body balanced, flexible, and functioning at its maximum capacity. Several golfers including Rory McIlroy, Phil Mickelson, and Tiger Woods utilize chiropractic care as an integral part of their success. Jordan Spieth, one of the best golfers of this current generation, and the 2015 Masters Champion, recently thanked his chiropractor for being an essential key to his professional success. Mr. Spieth has been taking advantage of chiropractic care since he was 14-years-old to help prevent injuries and enhance his athletic performance and overall health. Golf is an asymmetrical sport which places a significant amount of torque and stress on the human spine and musculoskeletal system. With that being said, golfers require routine care to ensure that their musculoskeletal system is functioning at its highest potential. Injuries happen when the musculoskeletal system is functioning poorly. There is not a more affordable, safer, and better alternative to preventive health care than chiropractic. Whether you are a professional, amateur, youth athlete, or simply a recreational novice, you can experience the same health benefits from routine chiropractic care. Whether you need a tweak of your swing or a tweak of your back, or any extremity joint for that matter, visit with Dr. Fahrendorf on how chiropractic is the best club in your golf bag. Call (605) 334-8000 to schedule now. Who is your favorite to win the green jacket on Sunday? #FFCW #siouxfallsfamilychiropractor Read More

Monsanto Required to Disclose Cancer Warning On All Products

Rarely does California do much that makes logical sense. However, it is important to give credit where credit is due. Fahrendorf Family Chiropractic + Wellness applauds California for taking a stand defending the health and wellness of its people. Monsanto and others should be required to disclose a cancer warning on all their products. Even one life lost due to their products is one life too many. #FFCW #siouxfallsfamilychiropractor Read More

Chiropractic care is the safest alternative on the market

Do your body a favor and take care of it, naturally, without the awful side effects of drugs. Place your faith in the human body's natural ability to heal itself from inside out, and you will never regret that decision. Dr. Fahrendorf is here to help you live a better quality of life and be your advocate every step of the way. Please call (605) 334-8000 to schedule your next adjustment. #FFCW #siouxfallsfamilychiropractor Read More

What the heck are pre and pro-biotics?

How does one begin to live a healthy lifestyle? One takes proper care of their gut and what they place in their mouth and body. This includes proper nutrition (food and exercise) and supplementation. Roughly 70% of the human immune system lies in the gut. Doesn't it make sense to take proper care of your gut to improve the overall quality of life? Unhappy gut equals unhappy life; happy gut equals happy life. Please purchase quality supplements, such as pre and probiotics, from reputable manufacturers and suppliers. Metagenics is Dr. Fahrendorf's favorite manufacturer. Target, Walmart, GNC, Vitamin Shoppe, Walgreens, etc sell low quality supplements which should be avoided. Many of these low quality supplements contain heavy metals and fillers which are harmful to the human body. Please call (605) 334-8000 if you have questions. Dr. Fahrendorf is here to serve as your advocate for your overall health.#FFCW #siouxfallsfamilychiropractor​ Read More

Studies Suggests Chiropractic Care Reduces Need For Opioid Prescriptions

If you suffer from a chiropractic condition, the only solution is chiropractic care. It's that simple. Why are the pharmaceutical companies so strong and powerful? It is because they are in bed with our elected leaders and politicians. They are buying political access and favors. It's that simple. It is all about money and greed. Preliminary research is indicating that there is a 56%-57% reduction in opioid use when chiropractic care has been utilized in patient treatment. The public can either place their trust in the big pharmaceutical companies, or they can place their faith in the human body to heal itself, naturally, from inside out without the negative side effects that the big pharmaceutical companies do not want to discuss nor disclose. #FFCW #siouxfallsfamilychiropractor Read More

Sioux Falls gets the attention of the Wall Street Journal

We are extraordinarily grateful to be back home and practicing in a city that is growing, thriving, and prospering year in and year out. Sioux Falls is what it is today because of its people, their spirit, and their passion for leaving this world a better place than how they found it. For many years, we have been the beneficiaries of bold, intelligent, talented, and courageous leadership from our political leaders and concerned citizens. In addition, our winters just make us tougher and stronger. It goes without saying, our greatest days still lie ahead. #FFCW #siouxfallsfamilychiropractor Read More
