Here are some fun, chiropractor approved, outdoor summer activities to enjoy in the heat of summer.
- Cycling Adventures: Hit the open road on two wheels and feel the wind in your hair. Cycling not only improves cardiovascular health but also allows you to explore new places at your own pace. From Chippewa Falls city bike paths to scenic countryside routes, there’s a cycling adventure for everyone in the Chippewa Valley. If your bike needs any tuning up or if you are looking for a whole new ride, make sure to stop into Chippewa Falls’ Spring Street Sports. From beginner to professional, they will take care of you.
