Exercise Corner: Lumbar Flexion with Rotation Control 🤸‍♂️

Lie flat on your back and gently draw your tummy inwards to engage your deep abdominal muscles. Bend your hips to around 90 degrees and keep your knees together. Slowly rotate your spine from side to side, moving only a few inches and keeping the motion controlled.

This exercise helps strengthen your lower abdominal muscles and improve core control.

🔁 Repeat 10 times | Both sides

Exercise Corner: Thread the Needle 🤸‍♂️

Start on all fours in a comfortable position. Place the back of one hand between your opposite arm and thigh. Gently draw your belly button in towards your spine to engage your deep abdominal muscles. Slowly rotate your upper back as you glide your arm across your body, moving in a smooth and controlled way.

This exercise helps improve mobility in your spine and shoulders. It’s gentle, easy to do, and safe for most people.

🔁 Repeat 10 times on each side

Exercise Corner: Cat–Camel Stretch 🤸‍♂️

Start on your hands and knees in a comfortable, neutral position. Gently round your back, drawing your abdominal muscles in. You should feel a mild stretch through your mid to lower back.

Move slowly and comfortably—there’s no need to force the movement or over-arch your back unless your chiropractor/ therapist has specifically advised otherwise.

From there, gently reverse the movement, allowing your lower back to arch as you look slightly forward. Flow smoothly between these two positions.

This is a good exercise to stretch your back and reduce back pain. It’s really easy to do and really safe.

🔁 Repeat 10 times

Seeing the positive impact chiropractic care can have for someone with scoliosis is what first sparked my interest in becoming a chiropractor. Witnessing that difference first-hand showed me just how powerful this type of care can be, and it’s what drew me into the profession from the very beginning.

Chiropractic care doesn’t “fix” scoliosis, but it can help the body manage it better by:

✔ Improving movement in the stiffer areas of the spine
✔ Reducing extra strain on overworked muscles
✔ Helping the nervous system coordinate movement more efficiently
✔ Supporting posture and breathing mechanics

The goal is better movement, less tension, and a spine that functions as well as possible in everyday life.

Many of today’s aches and pains don’t stem from injury, but rather from our lifestyle. Long hours at desks, driving, or screens can slowly overload the spine and joints, leading to stiff necks, sore backs, tight shoulders, and recurring tension. Chiropractic care can support your health and wellbeing and ease those everyday issues that slowly creep in.

Chiropractic care may help by:

✔ Improving movement in stiff joints affected by prolonged sitting
✔ Reducing tension in overworked postural muscles
✔ Supporting healthier spinal alignment and posture
✔ Helping the nervous system adapt better to daily stresses

The goal is to help your body move more efficiently, recover better from long days, and reduce the build-up of everyday aches and pains.

Bilateral carpal tunnel syndrome can be especially frustrating, as it affects both hands and can interfere with work, sleep, and everyday tasks. While chiropractic care doesn’t “cure” carpal tunnel syndrome, it can help address some of the factors that contribute to symptoms and support better function overall.

Chiropractic care may help by:

✔ Improving movement in the wrist, elbow, shoulder, and neck
✔ Reducing nerve irritation along the arm and upper spine
✔ Decreasing excess tension in overworked forearm muscles
✔ Supporting better posture and load through the upper body

The goal is to reduce strain on the nerves, improve movement efficiency, and help your hands and arms cope better with daily demands.
