‘Motion is the lotion’

Cheesy I know, but it rings true! Movement is key to help with circulation of blood flow and bodily fluids… sounds disgusting I know.

Buuuut it’s also one of the main components of removing nasty-ness from the system i.e. inflammation etc

I will always recommend movement to my patients after an adjustment- also because I find that it’s the best way to train the body to realize that it’s actually in a better, stronger position!

‘My neck hurts when I wake up in the morning’
‘What’s you pillow height like?’

This is one that I get asked a lot in clinic- it’s something so simple but has a massive impact on everything else!

If your neck is supported whilst you sleep, then it has a carry on affect with the quality of your sleep and how your body heals. If one side of your neck is overly compressed or stretched it’s going to feel bloody stiff in the morning!

BIG TIP- Your pillow height should be the same width as your shoulder ideally! Which generally can change over time- so just just because you’ve had the same pillow for 5 years might not mean that it’s best serving you now! Best thing to do will be to play about with it and see what works best!

‘So can you pin-point when you first got the pain?’
‘I literally got up from the sofa and I felt my back ‘go’…’

I cannot tell you how often I hear this phrase, or something along the same lines . Most believe that in order to warrant having back pain/ or an injury, that they needed to get it from doing something crazy like lifting something extremely heavy, or being hit by a truck…

But whilst these can also cause serious injury- don’t underestimate stepping off a curb, or missing the first step going up the stairs; because it’s the sneaky little obscure movements that will catch you out the most! But it’s no different than the big impact injuries! So don’t let pride stop you from getting it seen to and let’s get you healing quicker!

Chiropractor: ‘How do you sit at your desk?’
Patient: ‘On a chair’
Chiropractor: 🤦‍♂️

***Reality is something like the picture on the left instead of the right***

Yet another eloquent example of how patients get around consultation questions!

It’s amazing how a few small tweaks can make such a massive difference to the everyday!

If you’re looking to try and get more of the picture on the right and less of the left we can help!

The HERO or VILLAN you can’t always feel, but plays a big part in the stability of your spine…

The PSOAS muscle!

Now this little tinker will usually get tight on one side when there is some underlying weakness in the back- it does this to give the spine a bit more stability, but in doing so can tighten things up in the wrong position!

There are some great stretches online to sort this one out- but it’s always easier to do it with a helper! So as a rule of thumb I always check this muscle before doing any big adjustments!

One of the moments I love most in clinic is when you see the look of relief on patients faces when we find areas of the spine that aren’t working properly that are playing a part in patient’s symptoms…

Odd I know…

But it’s the relief of having an answer that there is something wrong, and it’s not all in their heads!

If you can name it, you can find it.
If you can find it, chances are you can do something about it.

If in doubt get it checked!

This is the Chiropractic equivalent of ‘Chicken or the egg?’

Often we subconsciously move in ways to get away from pain, which ironically ends up creating pain over time- it’s only when things start to get put right/ straighter/ better where we realize how far away from normal we really are… because it feels wrong!

But in the long term- this is what is going to keep pain from returning to our daily lives and create less, more serious problems down the line.
