23.01.2022 Today's stretch for #stretchtember is for.... glutes and piriformis! Great for all you runners and squatters out there! . 1st - Kat showing us a pigeon stretch. You can do this on the reformer or alternatively on a bench or box. It doesn't matter what it is as long as its stable and just below hip height. Lift the leg you want to stretch up into a bent position and lean forward to stretch the glutes. . 2nd - Dr Bec showing us the same stretch but on the floor. To make it ha...rder or stretch deeper the further out your foot from your body the more it will stretch . #stretch #instinctivewantirna #instinctivechiropractic #chiropractic #wantirna #kx #kxpilates #ringwood #mitcham https://instagram.com/p/BY5bf68Denf/

21.01.2022 Today's Stretch for #stretchtember is... Hamstrings Part 2! There are so many different ways to stretch your hamstrings so we thought we'd share a couple more with you. 1st - Kat is showing us how to use the reformer to help stretch out. Put one leg up on the reformer and slide back to stretch the hamstring of the leg on the floor. Bending forward will help isolate the hamstring. 2nd - Dr Bec showing you one of her favourite stretches to do. This is great for all of you wh...o struggle to reach down and touch the floor. Start in a crouched position and stretch up through the legs and squat back down again and repeat. 3rd- Dr Bec showing you the most common hamstring stretch going around. Sit on the floor bend one leg in and reach out to the straight leg. See if you can get your hand to your foot. Remember not to bend your knee off the ground! #instinctivewantirna #instinctivechiropractic #wantirna #stretchtember #september #stretch #ringwood #mitcham #kx #kxpilates https://instagram.com/p/BYvRT3uhVLQ/

21.01.2022 Today's stretch for #stretchtember is... Adductors part 2! Another large muscle group which has so many ways to stretch so we thought we'd show you some more! . 1st - Using the reformer machine Kat has one leg stationary on the ground with the other leg up on the slider slowly stretching the leg out. Leaning forward to support herself. Don't forget to swap sides! . 2nd - Is the classic butterfly stretch. Simply sit on the floor and bring your feet together. Try to get your k...nees down to the ground if you can. . 3rd - Using the reformer is another take on the butterfly stretch. Kat is using the pulley's to bring her feet together. Using the handles she is bringing her feet towards her body to create the stretch through the adductors. . #instinctivewantirna #instinctivechiropractic #wantirna #chiropractic #kxpilates #kx #mitcham #ringwood #stretch #smilingbecauseitfeelsgood https://instagram.com/p/BY27_C4DJDI/

11.01.2022 INTRODUCING DR VALENTINE WANGUI Born and raised in Kenya, Dr Valentine dreamt of being a doctor, with an approach to healthcare that is very holistic and being able to understand how the body heals and regulates itself. Chance had it that on a visit to Australia, her mother visited a chiropractor who explained the ins and outs of chiropractic. Armed with information from the university as well as her own research, her mother returned to Kenya and explained Chiropractic to... her daughter. Having found an area in healthcare that fit with her philosophy on health, Dr Valentine took the plunge and came to Australia in 2010 to pursue her chiropractic studies at RMIT university in Melbourne. Apart from her studies at university, Dr Valentine has further training in functional neurology, which has enabled her to have a more in-depth understanding of the working of the nervous system as well as achieve better patient outcomes. Valentine is passionate about looking after the health of the individual and the whole family, with her mission to change the health of the community one person at a time. Valentine loves music, arts and exploring her creative side. She enjoys the great outdoors and loves a good challenge. She also loves good food and a great coffee.

11.01.2022 Today's stretch for #stretchtember is... Adductors. 1st - Dr Bec is isolating one leg at a time. Start in a star shape and put weight onto one side in a side lunge position stretching the straight leg. Remember to keep your chest up straight and don't bend forward with your hips. 2nd - Kat is demonstrating an adductor stretch for both legs at the same time. To do this one on the reformer you need to keep one leg still placing the other foot on the sliding section and slide... out until you feel a stretch. As with our first stretch remember to keep your chest up and hips tucked under. 3rd - Dr Bec showing us a frog stretch. Start by kneeling on the ground with a wide stance and bend forward into a flat position using your forearms to support yourself. The lower your can get to the ground the more it will stretch. #stretchtember #stretch #instinctivewantirna #instinctivechiropractic #chiropractic #wantirna #ringwood #kx #kxpilates #mitcham https://instagram.com/p/BY0SxbLjI7B/

Keeping the knees straight and reaching for the floor. Don't worry if you can't get your hands to the ground in the beginning.

Don't have a Pilates ring? No worries. A towel works just as well. #chiropractic #instinctivechiropractic #wantirna #pilates #kx #kxpilates #mitcham #ringwood #stretch #september #stretchtember See more
