You only get one spine, so you better take good care of it. There is no such thing as a spinal transplant. Just like everyone goes to the dentist for a routine check up appointment, everyone should be visiting a chiropractor on a routine basis to get checked from head to toe. We are more than happy to help pull you out of the metaphorical toilet when you are suffering from an accident or injury, but it is our long-term goal to keep you moving properly, so you do not fall back into the toilet again. Dr. Fahrendorf has open appointments this week and is skilled at assessing and adjusting not only the spine but all upper and lower extremities as well. Please call (605) 334-8000 to schedule your next adjustment. #FFCW #siouxfallsfamilychiropractor​ Read More

Medical doctors are forced to practice under the "sick care" model in the United States due to the almighty dollar. It's unfortunate for the patient, but it is the realty of the times. In the end, it is the patient who suffers the consequences. Every single presription drug(s) and/or over-the-counter (OTC) drug(s) has side effect(s). Opioid drug addiction is an epidemic in the United States. However, there is good news! Patients have an alternative that does not destroy the human body from inside out. Chiropractors deliver and provide "health care" to their patients. There is NOT a safer form of health care than chiropractic care. Spinal surgery and the usage of NSAIDS/Aspirin/Opioids carry a MUCH LARGER health risk than any cervical adjustment. The facts speak for themselves. Discover chiropractic: the power that made the body, heals the body. It happens no other way. If you are sick of living a life with a decreased quality of life, do yourself a favor and give chiropractic care a shot. It will be a decision you will not regret. Fahrendorf Family Chiropractic + Wellness treats all ages and is accepting new patients. Please call 334-8000 to schedule your next adjustment. An improved quality of life is waiting for you. #FFCW #siouxfallsfamilychiropractor Read More

​What the food industry is doing to us is nothing short of criminal. Eating fat does NOT make us fat. Eating SUGAR is what makes us fat. With the season of Lent upon us, this could be a great addition to any Lenten resolution. #FFCW #siouxfallsfamilychiropractor​ Read More

The nervous system is the "quarterback" of the human body which controls and regulates every cell, nerve, tissue, organ, and organ system in the human body. Simply put, the nervous system facilitates the communication between the brain and the human body. The spinal cord is an extension of the brain, and the spine houses and protects the spinal cord. That is why a healthy spine is so critically important to the overall health of each and every one of us. Chiropractic care is a natural, non-invasive, non-pharmacological alternative to traditional medical care that helps remove the irritation and interference of the nervous system while allowing the human body to heal itself from inside-out. Discover chiropractic...the power that created the body, heals the body. It happens no other way. Call 334-8000 to schedule your next appointment. An improved quality of life is waiting for you. #siouxfallsfamilychiropractor #FFCW Read More

The spine houses and protects the spinal cord. The spinal cord is an extension of the brain. Doesn't it make sense to take proper care of your spine to help the brain and body perform and operate at its maximum potential? Most people do not realize that spinal misalignment(s) (aka subluxations), which interfere with the proper function of the nervous system, usually occur with NO pain or symptoms. Just like dentists, Chiropractors focus on educating entire families on the long-term health benefits of proactive routine check ups and care before symptoms arrive. Pain is the last symptom to present itself, but it is also the first symptom to disappear after receiving proper chiropractic care. If you are interested in maximizing your health potential, please call (605) 334-8000 to schedule your next appointment with Dr. Fahrendorf. #FFCW #siouxfallsfamilychiropractor Read More

Everyone should be drinking half of their body weight in ounces per day. For example, a 150 lb. individual should be drinking 75 ounces of water each day. Dehydration is a pervasive problem in our society. Water is responsible for the transport of nutrients, oxygen, and waste products, as well as for regulating your body temperature and serving as the medium in which all of your body’s chemical reactions take place. Most people do not drink enough pure clean water. Drink up! Call (605) 334-8000 to schedule your next appointment. #FFCW #siouxfallsfamilychiropractor Read More
