Recently in practice, we have noticed an influx of people coming in for calf tightness. Maybe it’s because the Melbourne Marathon event has just taken place and everyone has taken up running, or maybe it’s because summer is just around the corner and people are becoming more active. Or is it because our nervous systems are in fight or flight mode, ready to flee?

Either way, here are our three go-to exercises that we have been giving our patients:

1. Double Leg Eccentric Calf Raise over a step: 2 seconds up, 5 seconds down, 3 sets of 6 reps (strengthening the muscle in the lengthened position).
2. Downward Dog, pedalling your feet down: 3 sets of 12 reps (dynamic stretch).
3. Bunny Hops: 3 sets of 30 seconds to a metronome at 160-180 BPM (the Achilles tendon loves spring).

If you would like more information on how to perform these exercises or on rehabilitation, please don’t hesitate to ask our friendly and knowledgeable team! :)

Let’s talk about the magic of tummy time! 🍼✨
It’s not just playtime; it’s essential for your baby’s growth and development!

Here are some amazing benefits:

1. Strengthens Muscles 💪: Tummy time helps build strong neck, shoulder, and back muscles as your baby pushes up and lifts their head.

2. Enhances Motor Skills 🚼: It encourages reaching, rolling, and crawling, laying the foundation for future milestones!

3. Boosts Coordination 🎯: Focusing on toys during tummy time helps improve hand-eye coordination, develops spatial awareness and balance.

4. Supports Nervous System Development 🧠: Gradual exposure to different positions stimulates sensory processing, aiding brain development to meet their milestones.

5. Prevents Flat Spots 📏: Regular tummy time reduces the risk of plagiocephaly (flat spot on your babies head) by allowing the back of the head to rest.

Make tummy time fun! Use toys, get down on the floor with them, or sing while they play! Let’s give our little ones a strong start! 💖

Some babies’ appointments will look like this 🥹, while others might happily lay on the table or even snooze right through.

Our focus is always on what feels best and safest for your little one. Whether they prefer being cradled by mum or exploring the table, each experience is tailored to suit their needs and mood that day.

Every child is wonderfully unique, and their care should reflect that 🤰🏻🤱❤️

Have you ever wondered why your chiropractor takes an interest in your tongue and nails? 🤔

As dedicated health practitioners, we focus on all aspects of your health. Your physical well-being is closely linked to your chemical health (what you eat and drink) and your mental health.

If your treatment isn’t progressing as expected, it’s essential to explore these other areas! A common example is when muscle tension doesn’t respond to massage, adjustments, stretching, or rehabilitation exercises.
In these cases, your practitioner may inquire about your iron levels and have a look at your nails or tongue 👅

Low iron can mean your muscles aren’t getting enough oxygen transportation to your muscles, slowing their recovery and your progress. By addressing such deficiencies, we improve the effectiveness of the treatments and better your health outcomes! 💚
