Travelling Well
People ask me all sorts of versions of, “How do I keep my body A1 for my holiday?” I often have people asking me, “how do I prepare for this?” There’s the million dollar question. How do you dodge having body pains taking the shine off your adventure or limiting your ability to get out there and do those things you were eagerly anticipating?
Regulation ~ defining a tricky thing
Regulation, as a concept, is something that is popping up more and more on the health front in reference to headspace, neurological and physiological realms. What is the context there? What does it mean to be regulated? How does chiropractic care help?
Chiropractic Care. It's not just about backs.
Chiropractic care primarily supports the musculoskeletal system. Emerging research is exploring how spinal input may influence broader nervous system regulation.
Water ~ how much is enough?
No one would deny that we need water for life, but we are spoilt for choice when it comes to liquid options, and sugar or flavour or caffeine can turn our head…there’s still water in there, right? Well, yes, but is it enough?
Chiropractic Care is Holistic Health Care
Chiro care very rarely focuses on just the one spot where the pain that brought you through our door is. We can, if you insist, but the possibilities are likely to be broader than that. We work with the whole body.
Standing Desks
I wanted to remind you why I continue to advocate for standing desks in your workplace ~ both in the office and when you’re working from home. The essence of it is that you only have one body. One spine. You can work with it, or against it, but you will have to deal with the long-term outcome of your daily choices in terms of quality of days going forward. Here’s my argument for including a standing desk in your tool kit for living life well.
Chiropractic Care and Feeling Great!
People who choose to have ongoing chiropractic care talk about multiple benefits like: experiencing less pain, freedom of movement, sleeping better, being calmer, more able to focus on study, better headspace, and the list goes on…,but how does a chiropractic spinal manipulation create that kind of change in a body?
Heatwaves & Health
Statistically, heatwaves rank as Australia’s deadliest disaster. Worse than floods, bushfires and cyclones. That thought made me pause. Why is this...and how do we manage this serious risk to our health?
Time Sensitive
30 minutes doesn't sound like long, but in the context of our speedy nervous system, a lot can happen in this timeframe. Good and bad. Read on to find out more about stiffness, smudged brain maps, shrinking brains and centrally mediated protection systems ~ the time dependant pros and cons of neuroplasticity.
Fish, Fatty Acids and Inflammation
These days most of us know that fish oil is good for arthritis. That is absolutely good enough for some. For others the questions of, “Why?”, “How much is good for me?”, and “How do I identify a quality product that won’t break the bank?” are questions they’d like answers to. This blog is for them.
