25.01.2022 Manuka honey Manuka honey is a honey produced from the nectar of a the flowers of Manuka. The Manuka tree grows in New Zealand. This type of honey has antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties according to a journal published in 2008 by researchers at the University of Dresden. The substance MGO was found to be responsible for these properties. This honey is great for sore throats! Not only for it's soothing property BUT for its antibacterial ones too!

19.01.2022 Does this sound like an issue you can relate to? While feeling tight through the hip flexors, usually the first thing someone will do is search "how to stretch hip flexors" (front of the thigh). A lot of the time we forget about the antagonist muscle group - the glutes. ... If one muscle group is tight (hip flexors) then it is highly likely the the opposite muscle group (glutes) are not activating properly. If this is the case and the glutes are not activating, one of my favourite Glute exercises is the glute bridge. Lie on back, feet hip-width apart and flat on the floor, arms straight with palms flat on the floor. Tighten absyou're aiming to hold this gentle contraction throughout the exercise while still breathing. Keeping shoulders and feet on the ground, squeeze glutes and press hips up toward the ceiling until body forms one line from chest to knees. Pause, then slowly lower yourself back to starting position. Do 3 sets of 8

18.01.2022 Suffering from headaches or migraines? Chiropractors regularly diagnose, care for and manage headaches, and many studies have reported on the effectiveness of chiropractic care in alleviating migraine pain and other health issues that arise from neck and back issues. An Australian study published in the Journal of Manipulative Physiological Therapy demonstrated the effectiveness of chiropractic care in treating migraine pain. The Macquarie University study analysed the responses of 127 volunteers who suffered from migraines aged from 10 to 70 years. The researchers found that more than 80% of people who were provided with chiropractic care reported an improvement in migraines.

12.01.2022 Consider a chiro

12.01.2022 I often get asked what I recommend as a massage cream and this would be my go-to which I use in clinic! Fisiocrem is great for temporary relief of musclar aches and pains. Containing arnica, hypericum and calendula it is a natural herbal massage cream without the hidden nasties.

09.01.2022 Disc herniation does NOT mean surgery. A disc herniation is a displacement of disc material (nucleus pulposus or annulus fibrosis). The highest prevalence is among people aged 30-50 years, with a male to female ratio of 2:1.... An MRI is able to identify even minor changes in the disc structure, however just because a disc herniation appears on MRI, it doesn't mean it's the cause of your pain. A study found 19-27% without symptoms had a disc herniation on imaging. Through conservative care such as chiropractic, a disc CAN heal. Have you been diagnosed with a disc herniation, if so what worked for you? https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2907819

09.01.2022 Why maintain your spine through CHIROPRACTIC? Because it protects the most important system in your body! Your NERVOUS SYSTEM.

08.01.2022 I fell in love with chiropractic after my own experience with low back pain and the effects that chiropractic had for me. I love the fact that we don't need to put anything into the body or take anything away from it, just simply allow the body to heal naturally with the help of chiropractic. I now find myself extremely passionate about helping people and improving their overall health. I love keeping up to date with the latest advancements in chiropractic care, with spec...ial interests in low back pain, migraines, pregnacy, sacral occipital blocking, trigger point therapy, posture and rehabilitation. My hobbies include spending time with my partner, family and fur babies, growing vegetables, enjoying time by the ocean and walking barefoot I have a strong interest in living toxin-free and plastic-free in the home and workplace and strive to live in a positive, stress free environment as I believes this impacts the whole body, as well as the importance of nutrition, hydration and movement to enable the body to function optimally.

08.01.2022 Are you SLEEPING in the correct position? "It is generally agreed that sleeping on your back is the best position for your spinal health. Sleeping on the back evenly distributes weight across the surface of your body, allowing your head, neck and spine to rest in a neutral position. It can also help minimise pressure and ensure proper alignment of your internal organs. You may choose to place a pillow under your knees to keep to the natural curve of your spine. If you sleep o...n your side, try lying with a slight bend in your knees and consider putting a pillow between your knees so that your legs are about hip-width apart. This can reduce the pressure placed on the spine and provide alignment. Avoid positions that change or distort the natural alignment of your spine. For example, sleeping on your stomach can create problems with your spine as it puts unnecessary pressure on your neck due to twisting your head and placing strain on your spine". - Australian Chiropractic Association

08.01.2022 How's the protector of YOUR nervous system going? Time for a tune up?

08.01.2022 Curious as to why you feel so good after an adjustment!? Well there's actually a scientific explanation. Not only are we restoring normal joint movement throughout the spine but we are also creating a CHEMICAL change. Scientists have found that a chiropractic adjustments causes a surge in Beta-endorphins! ... Beta-endorphins produce a wide range of benefits, one of which is analgesia or the reduction of pain. So when I adjust you, your spine releases endorphins. The endorphins tell your body to feel good, allowing you to resume your daily activities while your body naturally reduces your pain. How cool is that!!
