The GLP-1 Skeleton: Managing Joint Pain During Rapid Weight Loss Recovery
June 15, 2026
Summer in Central Texas means more outdoor activities, travel, workouts, sports, yard work, and family fun. But with increased activity often comes more stress on your body. At TexStar Chiropractic, our goal is to help Austin-area families stay active, mobile, and pain-free all summer long.
Our team of experienced chiropractors across Austin, Bee Cave, Buda, and Dripping Springs put together some of their best summer wellness tips to help you avoid injuries, recover properly, and feel your best during the hottest months of the year.
Whether you’re lifting heavy objects, staying active outdoors, exercising, or simply trying to avoid aches and pains, these expert chiropractic tips can help improve your health and protect your body.
Dr. Amy Ho – Bend at the Knees and Lift Properly
One of the most common causes of back injuries during the summer is improper lifting technique. From loading coolers and luggage to yard work and moving outdoor equipment, your spine experiences a lot of strain when lifting incorrectly.
Dr. Amy Ho reminds patients that bending at the knees instead of your waist can significantly reduce stress on your lower back and help prevent injuries.
Dr. Jacobson – The Importance of Warming Up and Stretching
Before workouts, sports, golf, hiking, or outdoor activities, warming up your muscles and stretching properly can help improve flexibility and reduce the risk of injury.
Dr. Jacobson encourages patients to spend a few minutes preparing their bodies before activity, especially during the Texas heat where dehydration and muscle tightness can increase the risk of strains and injuries.
Dr. Woods – Prioritize Recovery and Cool Down
Recovery is just as important as exercise itself. After physical activity, your body needs time to cool down, stretch, and recover properly.
Dr. Woods explains that proper recovery routines can help reduce soreness, improve mobility, and support long-term joint and muscle health. Simple habits like hydration, stretching, mobility work, and chiropractic care can make a major difference in how your body feels.
Dr. Miller – Don’t Ignore Small Aches and Pains
Small aches and pains are often your body’s early warning signs. Ignoring discomfort can allow minor issues to turn into larger injuries over time.
Dr. Miller encourages patients to pay attention to recurring pain, stiffness, headaches, or discomfort before they become more serious conditions that impact daily life.
Dr. Henry – Stay Hydrated This Summer
Hydration plays a critical role in muscle function, joint health, energy levels, and recovery. During the hot Texas summer months, dehydration can contribute to fatigue, muscle cramps, headaches, and reduced physical performance.
Dr. Henry recommends staying ahead of dehydration by consistently drinking water throughout the day, especially when spending time outdoors or exercising.
