This is the third in a series of blogs about upcoming events in Capitol Hill—plus, tips and reminders to stay healthy while enjoying two of Capitol Hill’s most anticipated events.
Pride Parade You’ll certainly want to be there for the spectacle, fun and festivities of Seattle’s 37th annual Pride Parade on June 26th. The parade kicks off at 11 a.m. on 4th & Union and heads down 4th Avenue to Denny Way. Be sure to have a good breakfast to help you keep up your energy during the 2½ hour event, and if you decide to celebrate with some serious party-going afterwards, remember that physical stress and chemical stressors like alcohol and other drugs are primary causes of subluxations. If you find that you have lingering neck pain, back pain, headaches or numbness days or weeks after the event, you may want to get checked out. Capitol Hill Block Party
Although the Capitol Hill Block Party isn’t happening until July (22-24), we think this serious party weekend is worth mentioning in a blog post about the potential effects of physical and chemical stress on your body. If you haven’t already bought your tickets to see a lineup that includes bands such as TV on the Radio, Ghostland Observatory, Handsome Furs and the Posies, you’ll surely want to check it out. And as health practitioners, we also want to remind you to always think of your health and practice moderation to help prevent subluxations and other health problems. Take care of your body—it will thank you for it later! Take care, Backfire Chiropractic
