25.01.2022 SOUND ON TO HEAR THE CRACK This client is always a great one for giving a good crack! Are you a lover of the feeling or does the thought make you squirm?

25.01.2022 ChiroMyth Chiropractors only treat spines, wrong! Within my practice there are times where I can be full with sports injuries involving the legs and arms. If you see someone that cant treat an ankle or a shoulder alongside your sore neck then youre in the wrong place!

24.01.2022 Most headaches can be an easy fix after a few treatments involving soft tissue release, manipulation/mobilisations and exercises. The locations of pain with your headache are known as referred pain. These referred pains can tell you a lot about particular muscle groups and joints in the head neck and jaw. Commonly the muscles in the back of the neck give off the most amount of pain referral to the top of the head, temple and behind the eyeball. Jaw dysfunctions are less commo...n but a good practitioner should assess that part of your body to rule out any relationship to your headache. Heres 3 things I typically start with to help people with their headaches after treatment. 1) Document your headaches, when they start (morning, afternoon, night), how long do they last, where do you feel them. It provides valuable information to your chiropractor. 2) Chin Tucks with high volume of reps throughout the day (over 100 for some of you!) 3) Deep neck flexor strengthening, lying on your back push your chin down and hold that same posture with your head off the ground. Balance and co-ordination relies on visual inputs, which the neck controls the majority of where you look. Move your head quickly or not move it at all can results in neck pain, stiffness and headaches. Moreover the 3 highest sensory receptors for proprioception are hands feet and neck. So If it isnt feeling great it sure will after a treatment .

24.01.2022 A yogurt bowl should have 3 things; crunch, fruit and fun! I like to mix it up as much as I can so heres my rotation of ingredients! Fruit Apples Peaches Raspberries... Blackberries Blueberries Strawberries Grapefruit Orange Persimmon Pomegranate Pineapple Banana Kiwi Crunch Toasted Coconut Granola Almonds Pecans Macadamia Nuts Chia Seeds Extras Nut Butter Spices (turmeric, cinnamon, nutmeg) Honey Maple Syrup See more

22.01.2022 If youve ever picked up a baby you know immediately just how floppy a baby can be. They can suck on their toes and move without restriction to their maximum ranges of flexibility. youll notice huge gaps between joints and growth plates notably within long bones. A thought that has plagued me is, how much joint manipulation treatment does that kid even need? Yes I understand that there are circumstances that require treatment. But it seems like I hear some baby has their ba...ck cracked and someone is at fault. From my clinical perspective the elite dancers/performers/gymnasts that I treat will commonly have ligamentous sprains, pars fractures and muscular strains. Do I need to manipulate them straight away not often, usually strength exercises and movements away from the impact areas relieve symptoms. Compared to an inactive and older person, they will feel a million bucks when they start moving those stiff joints.

21.01.2022 Gone but never forgotten Carlo, such a special person to me and all the people around you. My love for you will always stay strong 10 years on and still miss you every day.

16.01.2022 Babies quickly grow up and get heavier, so it becomes crucial to execute good lifting technique. Some helpful ways of lifting should mimic a deadlift or squat, that means keeping your child in between where youre standing and using your legs and hips! Ive seen my fair share of first time parents in the clinic, particularly the fun dads that end up with low back pain and shoulder strains from picking up their children aka fidgety kettlebells so be smart when youre picking up your kids!

16.01.2022 Out here having a great time

16.01.2022 Whats inside your spine? Your spinal cord, the information highway to and from your brain for every function, cell and organ in your body. PROTECT IT! Compression and poor joint movement can cause pressure on nerves, which has the possibility to lead to situations like nervous system dysfunction and hyper irritability.

15.01.2022 CHIRO MYTH: They break bones. I tell you one thing I wish I was strong enough to break some bones, then maybe id look like Arnold Schwarzenegger! All allied health professionals gently move joints and sometimes theres sounds that go with it.

15.01.2022 One of my favourite places to visit @indiana.reed smashing the hike! #nsw #travel #chiropractic #outdoors

15.01.2022 - its too true!

14.01.2022 Cold Swims : One of my favourite things I do every week! This swim was under 5 C Lake Joffrey Canada, so the seconds felt like minutes, but was the freshest Ive ever felt in my life. Cold exposure helps with: - Lower Inflammation - Improve Immune Response - Reduce Stress Levels - Improves Sleep ... - Improves Fat Loss - Improve Mental Fortitude (being a badass) #swimming #cold #wimhofmethod #chiropractor #physio #rehab #recovery #glacier #canada #stretch @arenawaterinstinct @arenaaustralia See more

14.01.2022 Dry needling is an effective modality used to treated myofascial trigger points throughout muscles. It works by inserting a thin sterile needle into the affected tissue. The hypersensitive area of the muscle will elicit a twitch response and the muscle relaxes and resets the involved area. The needle may then be left in for a longer period of time to stimulate blood flow to the area and enhance the bodies natural healing response. https://sportslab.onit.com.au/BookingGateway/Account/LogOn

11.01.2022 Did You Know? Unlike what it looks like in the movies, it is nearly impossibly to snap someones neck with your bare hands? Chiropractors have been trained for years to deliver specific gentle adjustments to the spine including the cervical spine (neck). This is an intentional adjustment to the bone (vertebrae). If the cracking and popping is just not right for you, there are so many other ways to deliver an effective adjustment that exclude having to twist, torque or push. Find the right adjustment that is comfortable and works for your body! Chiro isnt all about the cracking! (even though I do love a good crack and pop)

09.01.2022 Has any one been to any float tanks recently? Im dying to give one a go and would love to hear about any youve loved in the Sydney area! Drop them below!

09.01.2022 Physical complaints during pregnancy is a common issue for many women, particularly the lower back. As hormones change to adapt for the necessary flexibility required for birth some people are susceptible to having lots of pain as their weight loading changes. This doesnt simply apply for the course of pregnancy but also following months after when the abdomen has been stretched and the normal lumbopelvic posture slowly returns. If you are someone who is susceptible to lower back pain or have a sedentary lifestyle, it is worth visiting a health professional that can show you exercises that may prevent injury or improve physical pains affected by pregnancy.

08.01.2022 Dreaming of being back in places like this with @___indiana - wheres your favourite secret Sydney place for weekend fitness?

08.01.2022 Some areas of pain may sound similar " I have low back pain when im exercising at the gym" But the reason that pain got there in the first place may be different to some one else. A common question I hear is "How do I get rid of my pain" it cannot be responsed with a simple answer without firstly understanding mechanisms of injury and aggravation, previous history of injury, occupation, hobbies, exercise routine and lifestyle. Where one movement may provide pain relief for... one person could be excruciating for some else. Here is a example of how to treat low back pain by mobilisation with flexing and rotating in to the lumbar segments. This mobilisation is definitely not designed for everyone, but people dealing with pain/injuries from spinal extension, for example spondylolisthesis, facet injuries, and intevertrebral discs that have become dehydrated.

06.01.2022 Happy birthday to my hot Hungarian fiance @indiana.reed! The most clever, strong, beautiful and generous person I know. Youve got that mamba mentality like Kobe and quirkiness of George Costanza I love you xx

04.01.2022 Perfection. I’m so grateful and honoured to call you my wife @indiana.reed. Gorgeous in every way you, are the bride of my dreams. Thank you to all my family and friends for the unforgettable wedding. The venue was amazing @stanleyparkk and the incredible service and styling of @turveycollective

04.01.2022 ChiroMyth: Once you see a chiropractor you always need to go back. Answer: No, If you have an injury fix it then move past it. If you do your rehab to the full extent your old injury will not come back to haunt you. In some circumstances involving occupations and exercise that involve lots of physical stress, then sure, you may need to get more physical recovery than the average person to prevent overuse injuries from occurring. For everyone else make sure you know your prognosis (time frame for your recovery). If youre not recovered within that time frame, get a different opinion, change exercises etc. Just make sure you keep trying until your issue completely resolves!

03.01.2022 Sciatic Relief for when youre at home. Sciatic relief, can mainly be resolved from movement. Most sciatic issues arise from a disc bulge making up spinal joints and joints love to move, especially in extension (bending backwards). Warm yourself up with either a heat pack/hot shower/ 5mins exercise. 1) Start with back extensions and complete them in sets of 12-20 2) Glute bridge Isometric Holds, with you have too much pain moving your body around, try lying on your back on ...the floor and raise your hips off the ground. If you have pain going higher off the ground, hold your hips up to a point where the pain wouldnt feel worse than a 3/10. 3) Sciatic nerve mobilisation, lying on your back wrap a towel under your foot and commence a straight leg raise before your pain starts. From a comfortable position pull the towel towards you and then release it, mobilising the ankle forwards and backwards. Repeat as many sets as you can and make sure you seek professional help as nerves injuries take long to recover. See more
