I’m wearing my RESILIENT shirt today for two reasons — one professional and one very personal.
In practice, resilience means helping your body adapt and recover so you can handle life’s stress better.
And personally, it reminds me of my dad — 89 years young, still fighting hard in hospital with the goal of reaching 90 💪.
He’s the one who taught me what resilience truly looks like.

(see more)

👉 Firstly, for the work that I do.
Chiropractic care is all about helping the body adapt, recover, and stay strong — physically, mentally, and neurologically.
When your spine and musculoskeletal system are moving well, your brain communicates more efficiently with your body. This supports a healthier nervous system, helping you respond to and recover from life’s stresses more effectively.
That’s the essence of resilience — and it’s something we can all build from the inside out.

👉 Secondly, for my dad.
He’s currently 89 and in hospital, facing some serious health challenges — yet his goal is still to make it to 90.
Both Mum and Dad have been under chiropractic care for more than 40 years, which helped Dad enjoy an active, healthy life well into his mid-80s.
While his body is finding things tougher now, his determination and willpower remain incredible.
He’s the one who taught me that resilience isn’t about never falling — it’s about how many times you get back up, how you keep showing up, and how you face what life throws your way.

So today, I honour resilience — in my patients, in my work, and in my family.

We love new research that supports Chiropractic and helps us educate people about their spine health. New study about forward head carriage published in May this year helps us do just that!

3 key take aways are:
Greater forward head posture (sagittal head translation) was the most significant postural factor negatively affecting treatment outcomes.

Each unit increase in anterior head displacement reduced the odds of treatment success by 13%.

Younger age and female s*x were associated with significantly greater odds of long-term recovery.

🌀 Mind Full or Mindful?

Your nervous system can’t be in defense and healing at the same time.
That’s why Sundays matter—time to de-load your brain.

☀️ Walk.
☀️ Read.
☀️ Breathe.
☀️ Do whatever helps you reset.

Give your body the chance to shift gears → from stress mode into growth + healing mode.

✨ Be present. Enjoy the moment. Your brain (and body) will thank you.

20 Years of Providing Chiropractic Care for Patients from Nought to Ninety-Nine & Beyond…

Dr Paula established The Chiropractic Domain (then called: Stacey Chiropractic) in Goodwood and Mt Barker in the Adelaide Hills in July 1998. In 2008 the Mt Gambier location was offically opened.

A little about Dr Paula Stacey-Thomas “Welcome to The Chiropractic Domain Community and thank you for stopping by. I have had a strong passion to be a Chiropractor since I was 10 years of age. I still get joy and immense measure of pleasure from being part of a person’s healing journey. I love performing adjustments….20 years down the track I still think it is cool! I grew up in Goodwood, but never expected to own a business here. My Mount Gambier connection is through my husband who was born there. I commenced my chiropractic studies at the University of Adelaide and completed them at Macquarie University with a Masters in Chiropractic in 1996. I have been a practicing chiropractor since that time and in 1998, opened my own clinics in Mt Barker and Goodwood (formerly known as Stacey Chiropractic). I have since sold her Mt Barker practice and now run Goodwood and Mt Gambier clinics. I served for number of years on the Chiropractor’s Association of Australia (CAA), including a term as State President. In 2006 I was awarded National Chiropractor of the Year for my work as Program Manager National Healthy Spines Health promotion project www.healthyspines.com.au. I have also been a Telstra Business Awards finalist on three occasions. I always strive for ways to improve and extend the quality of service offered at the Chiropractic Domain, and keep up to date with technological advances within the chiropractic profession. I have special interest in caring for babies and children and my passion for Chiropractic care for children has only grown since starting a family of my own. When I’m not at one of the practices I am with my family that includes my daughter and identical twin sons as well as two adult step-children. We are a busy (at time chaotic house hold with a love of water sports, racquet sports and good food. I love when I get the chance to be near on or in the water, diving or swimming. In recently years I have developed a passion for cycling and motorbike.”
