"Everyone expects soreness after birth, but many new moms don’t realize they’re entering a phase of constant repetitive strain.

Your new “workouts” includes things suchas feeding posture, rocking + bouncing, diaper changes, stroller pushing, carrying baby + car seat...

Your nervous system is also recovering from sleep disruption during this time, and hormonal shifts can reduce your tissue recovery rate.

This all means that it takes LESS to irritate tissues. Your body isn’t weak!! It's just overloaded, and PPWC we can help you. Book today at www.portperrywellnesscentre.ca "

"One of the most common reasons people struggle with sleep isn’t insomnia in the classic sense. It’s pain.

The pain sleep cycle is brutal:

Pain makes sleep lighter and more interrupted.
Poor sleep makes pain sensitivity higher.

That happens because sleep disruption affects: inflammation regulation, pain thresholds, muscle recovery, nervous system sensitivity So in other words: even mild pain feels bigger when you’re exhausted. At PPWC, acupuncture is used as an adjunctive service for musculoskeletal and pain related conditions.

It may support:
✅ muscle tension reduction
✅ local circulation improvements
✅ calming pain signalling pathways
✅ improved comfort → improved sleep continuity

Sleep doesn’t need to be perfect to be effective — but your body needs enough uninterrupted time to reach deeper recovery phases.

What most often wakes you up... pain, stress, or bathroom trips?

"Pregnancy is basically a moving engineering problem and your skeleton is the structure doing the heavy lifting.

What changes structurally? As baby grows, the body often shifts toward:
➡️ increased lumbar lordosis (low back curve)
➡️ rib flare and thoracic stiffness
➡️ pelvic position changes
➡️ shortened hip flexors + overworked glutes

Even if you feel “fine,” this change increases load on your SI joints, deep hip muscles (piriformis, glute med) and your pelvic floor system.

Chiro care helps support movement and mechanical balance.
Massage helps reduce compensation patterns and improve tissue tolerance. Pre-natal support isn’t about “fixing your body, It’s about helping it handle its new workload!!

"Most sports injuries don’t start with one “bad moment.” They usually start with a quieter warning phase. A tight area that never fully releases, a slight pulling sensation during training, or stiffness that shows up the next day and sticks around longer than it should.

This is exactly what RMTs see all the time: overworked calves and achilles, tight hamstrings, irritated hip flexors, shoulder and chest tension, and even forearm/grip strain.

Massage therapy supports athletic recovery by helping with muscle guarding, improve circulation, and keep tissues moving better under load. So your body isn’t constantly compensating just to get through workouts.

It’s not “just loosening tight muscles.”
It’s helping your tissues handle stress more efficiently, before a minor warning turns into a full injury.

Question: Where do you hold tension most? Hips, calves, or shoulders/neck?"

"If you’ve ever left a massage feeling like your brain finally exhaled, that’s not just “relaxation.” There’s real physiology behind it.

Stress isn’t only mental... it’s biochemical. And when your nervous system senses threat (work stress, pain, chronic tension), your body increases: cortisol, adrenaline/noradrenaline, muscle tone + protective tension patterns.

Massage therapy helps shift this state by working through:
✅ mechanoreceptors in skin and muscle → calming sensory input to the nervous system
✅ parasympathetic activation → supports rest/digest mode
✅ reduced muscle tone → less “guarding” = less perceived threat

And when tension decreases, so can common sleep disruptors like:
restless tossing/turning
shallow breathing patterns
tight hips and low back tension
jaw clenching

Sleep posture affects tissue loading, and massage can also help address the areas that get overloaded during sleep!

When you can’t sleep, do you feel it more in your mind (racing thoughts) or your body (tension/discomfort)?"

"People often assume that sports injuries equals dramatic injuries. But chiropractors often see something less obvious and more common: mechanical overload injuries.

These happen when tissues are stressed faster than they can adapt.

- low back pain in lifters
- hip/SI irritation in runners
- shoulder impingement in gym goers
- neck/upper back stiffness in hockey players

These injuries typically happen as a combo of; repeated movement pattern, limited mobility in one joint → overload in another & poor recovery timing.

Chiropractic care focuses on:
✅ joint mechanics
✅ movement patterns
✅ supporting safe return

Do you stretch more before workouts or after workouts?"

"You can do everything “right” for sleep: magnesium, early nights, no screen time... and still wake up stiff, foggy, and unrested. Here’s the reason that doesn’t get enough attention: your neck position affects your nervous system’s ability to settle.

So, what’s happening (biomechanics + nervous system) exaclty?

Your cervical spine isn’t just “bones stacked.” It protects the spinal cord, supports the head’s weight, and houses dense networks of nerves and mechanoreceptors (sensory receptors that feed information to the brain).

When the neck is irritated or overloaded (desk posture, poor pillow support, side sleeping without proper alignment), your body can respond with:
💣 increased muscle guarding (especially upper traps, SCM, levator scapula)
💣 reduced blood flow from sustained tension
💣 higher sympathetic nervous system tone (your “alert” mode)

That’s a recipe for:
✅ trouble falling asleep
✅ lighter sleep
✅ morning headaches
✅ jaw tightness
✅ shoulder/upper back tension

How chiropractic care can support sleep: Chiropractic care focuses on restoring joint mechanics and mobility, reducing abnormal stress on tissues, and helping normalize the input your brain receives from the spine.

Do you wake up more often with neck stiffness or headaches?

"Pain is the body’s way of asking for attention. Ignoring it often leads to compensation patterns that create new issues elsewhere.

Clinical care helps identify the source of pain and address it before it becomes chronic. Early intervention supports better outcomes and long term mobility.

"Whether you’re active at work, in sport, or daily life, recovery is essential. Massage therapy and adjunctive treatments help reduce tissue overload, improve flexibility, and support faster recovery between physical demands.

Recovery focused care allows the body to perform better, not just harder.

"The spine plays a critical role in protecting the nervous system. When spinal joints are restricted or irritated, nerve communication may be affected, influencing how the body senses and responds to stress.

"Chronic muscle tension restricts blood flow, limits movement, and alters joint mechanics. Over time, this can contribute to headaches, reduced mobility, and persistent discomfort.

Massage therapy, chiropractic adjustments, and supportive modalities work together to restore balance, allowing muscles and joints to function as intended rather than compensating for dysfunction.
