As a tactical athlete, in your case a police officer spending large amounts of time in your cruiser, the question comes up what do I eat on the go? As a police officer you have some unique requirements for fuel and unique environment that you work in.

Here are the 5 items you should have in your gear bag to snack on.

Steves Paleogoods, PaleoKrunch Tropical Bar
IQ Bar
Caveman Dark Chocolate Almond Coconut Bar
Raw Cashews or Pistachios
Apple (organic) or Banana

DRINK WATER!!

With the unique work environment that you operate in you need to have optimal fuel! Deciding between the easy gas station snack and planning ahead is critical to your performance. This nutritional requirement can be met with these healthy snacks as well as plenty of water to fuel your engine. All of these should be found at local health food store or amazon.com.

Last year, a friend referred me to Dr. Linkhorn's office in Smyrna. I have now visited their office for two different mobility issues and cannot say enough about how their method of treatment has changed how I see chiropractic/mobility care. I have experience with two other practices that have "maintenance plans" and did not find ongoing relief in the years that I was on the plans. Dr. Linkhorn is not about that life. If you do the homework, there will not be the need for constant visits. Her team provided me with exercises to strengthen weak areas. I always left empowered to do the work to ensure that I am stronger on the other side of the injury. Her whole team is amazing. If you have a mobility issue or pain and want to finally kick it to the curb, visit them! You will not regret it. :)

Dr. Linkhorn and staff are wonderful! Not only do they use a variety of techniques and tools they suggested books to help me understand the root causes. Never insisted on a plan or multiple trips like other places. Highly recommend!

I am so happy I tried Sports Chiropractic Institute. This is the first time I have gone to a chiropractor, I was always a bit nervous. They listened to me, I had soreness in my lower back, after 4 visits with Dr. Linkhorn and doing the exercises she showed me, my back is so much better!! I continue to do the exercises to keep it that way.I just took my first kettleball class, set to my current ability level. Focused on form and learning the right movements. Will go back for more classes.

I have been seeing Dr Linkhorn for the last year. What started my search was for prevention of injury as I was starting the journey to a 70.3 IronMan. I really liked that this team really listened to me and what I needed. I have been lucky and when I come in for treatment, it usually takes less than 5 visits along with at home exercises for improvement or complete elimination of pain. I also use the massage services and just started some kettlebell classes. This place has it all!!

Dr. Linkhorn and her team of specialists are amazing. They work so hard to help their patients get well. Unlike a lot of doctors the goal here is to minimize the number of follow up visits and get you healthy as quickly as possible. That should be true everywhere, but you will certainly feel it here.
