5k Fun Run

Positively Chiropractic was founded in 2012, located on the historic town square in the village of Stockbridge, Michigan.  Both Dr. Erin and Dr. Sarah have focused on natural health and healing for well over a decade.  One of the amazing things about being a part of the chiropractic lifestyle is the awareness of what works WITH the body to achieve a higher level of health.  Things like what you are eating, what you are drinking, and how you are moving your body.  These are vital components for our practice members that support their chiropractic care and overall sense of well-being!

Knowing this, and knowing that we all work better if we have team goals (studies have actually shown that you have a greater chance of achieving your goals if you have accountability partners). In 2013 we all set out on the challenge of competing in the local 5k race that occurs during our village festival, A Day In the Village.  We all had so much fun that we committed to doing this every year and sponsored a "Positively Chiropractic" team, consisting of our practice members that wanted to join us by either running or walking.  

Year after year our team kept growing and growing until we essentially had a "Positively Chiropractic" race!  The director contacted us and asked if we would like to spear-head the event going forward and we said "Absolutely"! This year will serve as a HUGE learning experience on how to put together and execute a race, but we have so much support from this wonderful community and so much enthusiasm for this project, that good will prevail :) 

Outreach

Backpack Giveaway

Since 2019, we have partnered with Highest Praise Worship Center to collect school supplies to fill backpacks for students in Pre-K through High School. During the months of July & August backpacks are collected and then given away in the Stockbridge Town Square to students in need. Along with backpacks, several gift cards are auctioned throughout the day, this year we have been fortunate enough to provide haircuts and shoes for students to get them ready for the year. Through the generosity of our community we were able to donate more than 75 backpacks this year!

Angel Tree

Angel Tree is an annual project through the months of November & December where community members have an opportunity to provide gifts for families who need extra support during the holidays. Practice members choose an ornament which corresponds with a child to buy gifts for. Gifts are given to parents or guardians for the child's Christmas. Our goal at Positively Chiropractic is to help support the local community and make sure every kid has gifts under the tree on Christmas morning.

Hat and Mitten Drive

As parents, we all know how often hats and gloves get lost or misplaced. We also know how important it is for developing kids to have time OUTSIDE, being able to MOVE and PLAY! That's why we collect extra hats and gloves to donate to our local Stockbridge schools. Having extra winter gear on hand ensures that the children in our community stay warm outside. Our annual goal is 150 hats and mittens donated, but we have such a fantastic community that our total has exceeded that every year!
