Back Care Awareness Week 2025

Hey everyone! It’s Back Care Awareness Week 2025, and there’s no better time to remind you that your spine deserves some love, care and attention. As a chiropractor, I see daily how small habits (good and bad) make a big difference in back health. Let me share some simple, practical tips & stretches to help you feel better.

💡 Simple Tips for a Healthier Back

1. Mind your posture
🦴Try to keep your spine in a neutral curve (avoid slouching)
🦴Use a lumbar support or rolled towel behind your lower back if needed.
🦴Adjust your computer / screen height so your eyes look straight ahead (not too far down or up).

2. Move regularly
🦴Aim for a mini-break or stretch every 30–60 minutes.
🦴Walk, stretch, or change orientation.

3. Lift smart
🦴Bend your knees, keep your back straight, and lift with your legs, not your back.
🦴Avoid twisting while lifting heavy objects. Pivot your feet instead.

4. Strengthen your core & back muscles
🦴Gentle core exercises help support the spine.
🦴Strong muscles take stress off the joints and discs.

🤸 Try the stretches show in the slides and hold them for 20-30 seconds each!

🩺Back Care Awareness Week is a great time to look after your spine. Small, consistent actions add up. If you're experiencing persistent or worsening back pain (especially with weakness, numbness, or radiating sensations), it’s wise to get checked by a qualified clinician — and chiropractors are one of the conservative, drug-free options you can consider.

If you’d like help with posture, stretches tailored for you, or seeing whether chiropractic might be right for you, we would be happy for a FREE chat or arrange a consultation.

Let’s keep your back strong, flexible, and pain-free! 💪

💙 It’s Migraine Week! 💙

Migraines aren’t just “bad headaches” — they can disrupt your daily life and leave you feeling drained. Common symptoms include:
✨ Throbbing or pulsing head pain
✨ Sensitivity to light & sound
✨ Nausea or dizziness
✨ Neck pain or stiffness
✨ Visual disturbances (auras)

As chiropractors, we look at how spinal alignment, posture, and nervous system function can contribute to migraine triggers. Gentle chiropractic adjustments may help by:
✅ Reducing tension in the neck & shoulders
✅ Improving blood flow and nerve function
✅ Supporting better posture and spinal health
✅ Helping your body manage stress naturally

If migraines are holding you back, we’re here to support you on your journey to relief. 💆‍♀️✨

📅 Book an appointment today and let’s work together toward fewer migraine days.
