🌿 Mind Your Posture While You Garden This Spring 🌿

As we wrap up the spring season, many of us are spending more time outdoors - finishing up gardening projects, tidying the yard, or mowing the lawn before summer arrives.

A few simple tips to help you stay comfortable:
🌱 Warm up first with a few gentle stretches.
🌼 Bend at the hips and knees when lifting.
🍃 Change positions often to avoid overworking one area.
💧 Take regular breaks and stay hydrated.

At Aberfoyle Spinal Centre, we love helping our community stay active and move well. If you’d like some guidance, tailored exercises, or professional care for your spine, our friendly team is here to help.

🪑💻 It’s Workspace Week (Oct 20–26) - time to adjust your thinking and work well every day!

Work-related musculoskeletal disorders (WMSDs) like back discomfort, neck tension, and headaches can often be linked to stress, posture, and poorly set up workspaces.

At Aberfoyle Spinal Centre, our chiropractors are trained to assess musculoskeletal function and support healthy movement. We can help you understand how your work habits may be affecting your spinal health.

✅ Review your workstation
✅ Take regular movement breaks
✅ Visit us for personalised advice and chiropractic care

Prevention is the best protection.

Work-related musculoskeletal disorders (WMSDs) – what are they?

A range of inflammatory and degenerative conditions affecting the muscles, tendons, ligaments, joints, peripheral nerves and supporting blood vessels, WMSDs may be caused by a single workspace event, but commonly result from repeated harmful workspace activities over an extended period of time.

WorkSpace Week aims to reduce the occurrence and impact of WMSDs caused by physical stress, mental stress, repetitive work and poorly set up non-ergonomic workspaces. Chronic neck and back pain, shoulder stiffness and headaches can be linked to modifiable risk factors in Australian workplaces.

This WorkSpace Week (20-26 Oct), adjust your thinking to work well every day! Explore free resources, hints and tips at www.workspaceweek.org.au - because prevention is the best protection!

🌟 Supporting Your Body During Busy Days

Feeling the pressure of a busy week? Stress can sometimes show up as tightness in the neck, back, or shoulders, or make daily movement feel more challenging. While everyone experiences stress differently, there are ways to support your body and help you feel more comfortable.

💡 Tips for supporting your body during stressful periods:

✅ Pause and stretch: Even a few minutes can ease tension and improve circulation
✅ Check your posture: Small adjustments while sitting or using devices can make a difference
✅ Gentle movement: Activities like walking, stretching, or low-impact exercises can help you feel more relaxed
✅ Mindful moments: Deep breathing, short meditation, or simply stepping outside can support mental and physical wellbeing

At Aberfoyle Spinal Centre we can offer tailored support aimed at promoting comfort and helping people explore ways to manage stress through posture and movement.

• Manage muscle tension
• Maintain movement in their joints

❄️ Winter Is No Excuse to Stay Still!

As Chiropractors, we often notice more people mentioning neck and back discomfort during the colder months, and it’s not just the chill in the air.

When the weather cools down, many of us naturally become less active. More time on the couch, less movement, and stiffer muscles can contribute to feelings of tension or tightness in the spine.

👣 Movement is important - even in winter! Keeping your body moving may help to:
✔️ Maintain joint flexibility
✔️ Encourage circulation to muscles
✔️ Support posture (especially if you’re working from home or spending more time indoors)

You don’t need a full workout to stay mobile. A brisk walk, stretching, or gentle exercises at home can all be helpful.

If you’re experiencing ongoing aches or discomfort this winter, we’re here to provide advice and support.

📅 Book online or call us on 8358 6044 to discuss how we can assist you in maintaining your spinal health this season.
