The adductor magnus is not exactly the muscle everyone talks about, but when it gets tight or irritated, it can show up as groin pain, hip pinching, inner thigh tightness, pelvic discomfort, or even pain near the inside of the knee. Here is why this muscle matters and why A. Butler Chiropractic looks at both muscles and joints when helping your body move better.

Low back pain doesn’t always start in the lower back. A condition called Maigne’s Syndrome, or thoracolumbar junction syndrome, can cause pain that spreads into the hip, groin, pelvis, or lower abdomen. Because the discomfort appears in these areas, it is often mistaken for hip or pelvic problems. Understanding how the thoracolumbar junction works can help explain why these pain patterns occur—and how chiropractic care may help restore normal movement and reduce irritation.

Breastfeeding can be beautiful and bonding—but it can also be painful, frustrating, and exhausting.

In this post, Dr. Amber explains why breastfeeding can feel difficult, how the nervous system plays a bigger role than most people realize, and how gentle chiropractic care may help both mom and baby feel more comfortable and connected over time.

Some babies sink into their crib without a fuss… and others pop their eyes open, arch, or cry the second you try to lay them flat.

If your low back always seems to act up when life gets busy, you’re not imagining it.

In this post, Dr. Amber explains why that happens, how chiropractic and massage work together to calm your system, and why you don’t have to wait for the next big flare to get help.

Kids don’t have bills or inboxes, but they do have stress—and their bodies often show it before their words do.
