25.01.2022 "In most cases, a primary care doctor or chiropractor can help you resolve the problem. Chiropractors use posture exercises and hands-on spinal manipulation to relieve back pain, improve function, and help the body heal itself. They often work in conjunction with other doctors, and they can prescribe diet, exercise, and stretching programs. "A well-trained chiropractor will sort out whether you should be in their care or the care of a physical therapist or medical doctor," Dr. Kowalski explains." https://www.health.harvard.edu//where-to-turn-for-low-back

24.01.2022 Great video explaining the importance of Vitamin D in maintaining a strong immune system. Ask your Chiropractor for more information.

24.01.2022 For all the patients who cancelled or rescheduled at the last minute, THANK YOU for your gracious donation to Hartley Lifecare. This is what was collected for t...he year. Please remember to give our clinic at least 24 hours notice for any appointment changes. If for any reason you are unable to do so, rather than charging you a last minute cancellation fee, we ask that you donate $10-$20 into the Hartley Lifecare tin. This money goes to support our disability community in Canberra. Have a fantastic day! #hartleylifecare See more

18.01.2022 Are your kids practicing these healthy habits in school? Come the end of January, many of our young patients or children of our patients will pack their books, polish their shoes and head back to school, ready for the year ahead. However, kids dont often think about the impact that common classroom activities like sitting in a classroom, carrying a heavy bag and excessive screen time can have on their overall health and well being. As part of the Australian Chiropractors A...ssociations Back to School campaign, we here at Back In Balance are encouraging Aussie kids to adopt positive spinal health habits. These habits include: - Carrying a backpack correctly with both straps, adjusting it to the correct height and ensuring only the essentials are packed, with heavier items to the back of the bag to reduce weight. - Maintaining good posture when sitting in a classroom by keeping their shoulders back and relaxed with both feet firmly on the floor. - Trying to reduce recreation screen time to two-hours every day. - Eating a balanced, healthy diet and staying hydrated, helping to keep kids active in the playground and alert in the classroom. - Getting enough physical activity is key for a childs well being, so as a guide, kids should try and get at least 60 minutes of physical activity daily. Lets help kids practice these positive spinal health habits this back to school season and all year round. We welcome you to make an appointment before school resumes for more advice and assistance on implementing these positive health habits into your childs daily activity. We are even able to assist with fitting your childs backpack to suit their current level of development. Contact us on 6290 1000 (Pearce clinic) or 6241 0447 (Palmerston clinic) to book your appointment.

14.01.2022 "The study, submitted in 2019, took in 160 participants, 50% of which had forward head posture and 50% of which had normal head alignment. The authors found that biomechanical dysfunction of the spinal column may lead to abnormal afferent (nerve impulses traveling towards the brain) information. That is, the feedback into your brain from your upper neck area may become distorted. The specific areas they were looking at were the cervical (neck) sections of the spine." https://spinalresearch.com.au/new-study-shows-how-forward/

05.01.2022 ANNOUNCEMENT - we have a new Massage Therapist at our Pearce Clinic! Hi, my name is Vikki Bingley and Im excited to be joining the team at Back In Balance Chiropractic & Massage. I will be available all day Wednesdays and Thursdays. I obtained my Diploma of Remedial Massage through Australian Institute of Fitness. I am a late comer to the world of Remedial Massage Therapy but have found my passion. As Mark Twain said, Find a job you enjoy doing, and you will never have to w...ork a day in your life. I have found a job I love! I enjoy working with all clients, but my passion lies within the sporting world, having coached various representative teams varying in age from 5 years of age through to Australian & Olympic Athletes. My coaching is the reason I became a Remedial Massage Therapist. I wanted to give the teams I coached an edge over the opposition & Remedial Massage allowed me to do that. Although I have a strong sporting background, I enjoy working with people from all walks of life, helping them obtain their treatment goals. Goals range from relaxation, increased movement, feeling balanced, injury rehabilitation, post-surgery, through to elite athletes. There is no better feeling as a therapist when you see a treatment plan that you developed in consultation with a client pay off. I currently work with many International, NRL, Super Rugby, AFL & Cricket teams visiting Canberra with Julia Russell Massage. Teams include, Australian Kangaroos Rugby League, Australian Wallabies Rugby Union Team, Fiji National Rugby League & Rugby Union Teams, Italian World Cup Rugby League Team, NRL teams (Broncos, Knights, Warriors, Storm, Cowboys), Super Rugby teams (Waratahs, Rebels, Crusaders, Sunwolves), Sydney Thunder Womens BBL Team, Queensland Womens Cricket and 777 Brave Hearts Marathon Runners.

02.01.2022 Stroke is a major cause of disability worldwide, and cardiopulmonary function in the rehabilitation phase can be a predictor of future strokes or cardiac events. So what does the research say about spinal manipulation for stroke patients? Turns out its more good news.
