We would like to officially welcome Dr. Ugo Pierantoni to our team!

Dr. Ugo has been in practice in Auckland's north shore the last few years and has decided to make Christchurch his home. His journey in health has been shaped by over 2 decades on the basketball court and
14+ years in the gym. Through this he has learned how much strength, mobility, and recovery matter for long term performance. That same principle guides his chiropractic care: supporting people not only when they are in pain, but also to prevent issues, improve function and unlock their full potential. From athletes to everyday workers, he helps people move better, stay strong, and live with less restriction.

He will be in the office Monday to Friday starting November 17th.

Anxiety is a universal human experience, but when it starts to interfere with your daily life, work, or relationships, it's time to build a toolkit to manage it. One of the most effective, evidence-based techniques comes from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and is called "cognitive restructuring." It helps you challenge automatic negative thoughts and replace them with more balanced, rational perspectives. The goal isn't to think purely positive thoughts, but to think realistically, which significantly reduces the intensity of anxious feelings.

Tip:
When a negative thought pops up (e.g., "Nobody likes me and I'll always be alone"), pause and challenge it. Ask yourself: "Is there anyone in my life who has shown they like me?" "Am I applying one bad interaction to my entire life?" Replace the extreme thought with a more balanced one, such as, "While I felt excluded today, I know I have a couple of good friends who value me, and I can focus on those relationships."

Practicing this thought-re-framing regularly can actually help rewire your brain by strengthening new neural pathways, making it easier to reduce automatic negative thought patterns over time.

“Feeling Better After a Concussion? Don’t Rush Back to ‘Normal.’” 🧠⏳

You’re finally starting to feel like yourself again after a concussion - the headaches are easing, your focus is returning, and the fog is lifting.

But here’s the catch: just because your symptoms are fading doesn’t mean your brain has fully healed.

Concussion recovery isn’t just about waiting a few days and getting back to normal life. Pushing yourself too soon- whether that’s returning to work, screens, exercise, or even stressful situations- can trigger symptoms to come roaring back, or delay recovery altogether.

So where does chiropractic care fit in?

While we don’t treat the brain injury itself, many patients experience neck strain, joint stiffness, dizziness, or headaches due to the mechanical impact of the injury- especially after falls, car accidents, or rapid head movement. These symptoms can interfere with your ability to recover fully or return to your daily life without setbacks.

Chiropractic adjustments can help restore healthy motion in the spine, reduce tension in the neck and nervous system, and support your body’s healing environment.

If you're feeling better but not quite right, or you're unsure if it's safe to jump back into your routine, don’t rush. Get checked. Healing is a process.

“Still Not Feeling Right Weeks After a Concussion?” 🧠💤

You were told to rest. And you did.
But it’s been weeks, and you’re still not yourself.

Maybe you’re tired all the time. Or sounds and lights feel overwhelming. Maybe it’s hard to think clearly, and you feel emotionally off. That’s not in your head - well, it is - but not in the way people sometimes suggest.

This lingering fog is called post-concussion syndrome, and it’s more common than most people realize.

At our clinic, we support patients dealing with post-concussion symptoms by focusing on how the spine and nervous system are functioning. The cervical spine—especially the top two vertebrae—plays a huge role in brain-body communication. If that connection is off, symptoms can linger. Chiropractic adjustments help restore that flow, reduce tension, and support faster, more complete healing.

If it feels like your recovery stalled, let’s take a deeper look.
