Message from Dr. Booker:
Sharing the Benefits of Chiropractic and Kudos to You for Community Building

Dr. William Booker of Capitol Rehab of ArlingtonIn the past few weeks, I have been presented with various opportunities to share helpful information about the benefits of chiropractic with new audiences. Just last week, I participated in a panel with other doctors on an internet radio show.

Another good opportunity landed on my lap recently: I will be part of a future podcast with another respected doctor and fellow friend.

There are a few more opportunities like these coming up and what thrills me most is that these opportunities allow me to share health, wellness and chiropractic information with countless of others above and beyond my immediate circles. Any opening to help spread the benefits of chiropractic and active rehabilitation with new audiences is one I will always pursue with passion.

A quick and final note to thank everyone for all their comments on our blog(s) and on our Facebook page. The community we are building together is one where your participation is welcome and encouraged!

To your health,

Dr. William Booker, DC

Specifically, the pain associated with shin splints is the result of fatigue and trauma to the muscles and tendons where they attach to the tibia.
