March/April Project Bread Promo


THANK YOU to all of our wonderful patients and your referrals!
Because of you, Diamond Chiropractic was able to donate $160 to Project Bread's Walk for Hunger!

Our office manager Emily, as well as numerous patients, participated in this walk.


"On Sunday, May 1, 2011, 42,000 people came to the Boston Common to raise millions for their hungry neighbors during Project Bread’s annual Walk for Hunger.

Organizers were heartened that the Walkers and their sponsors raised $3.6 million to provide food for 448 emergency food programs in 130 Massachusetts cities and towns. These funds will provide a hot meal or a bag of groceries for hungry families next winter."


The need is still great. Visit www.projectbread.org to learn more about how you can help.

Scoliosis afflicts around 2 to 3 percent of the population. Children aged 10 to 15 are the largest age group. And it seems girls are more affected than boys. While common in this age and gender group, a growing number of adults have scoliosis. This often stems from trauma to the spine followed by years of neglect. Congenital scoliosis occurs before birth.
