🧠 Wisdom Thursday : Imagine your spine to be a Rubik’s Cube…

Popping your own neck is just like you randomly twisting it and praying for the best.

I term it “pop and pray” - that you will be okay.

You know that “shiok ” feeling after a self-crack?

Yup… that crunching satisfaction you get from turning the cube and hoping that you solved something.

In actual fact, the real problems (akin to the coloured pieces) are still all over the place. 😂

Here’s the reality:

🔁 Stresses in our lives (who doesn’t have them?) scrambles your cube
🔁 Sitting and staring at your laptop and smart devices all day scrambles it more
🔁 Old injuries? That’s the piece you keep ignoring (knowingly or unknowingly)
🔁 Self-cracking = twisting the cube aimlessly, yet it feels like a winning move, thanks to the endorphin surge and the accompanying popping sound.

Chiropractic isn’t about the noise — it’s about knowing the actual algorithm to “sets things where it belongs”.

When the right pieces click into place, your whole system feels different:
movement, posture, focus, energy — all smoother. Each face of the cube now look so colour coordinated. Your pains start to fade away.

Stop twisting randomly.
Start solving intentionally.

If your “cube” has been feeling extra scrambled lately, just drop me a DM. I will be more than happy to help you figure out what’s going on 😄 and solve it for you.

🪨 Standing on Kjeragbolten (Norway) 984 meters above the fjord.

From this angle of the photo, it looks easy.

Getting on the rock isn’t. I kid you not. You need to hop from the edge of the cliff onto the rock. No ropes to help.

Your heart pounds so fast, like it’s about to jump out of your chest. Your legs turn jelly. You pray that the rock doesn’t give way, and you don’t slip.

Once you made it on to that rock, everything tightens up - your shoulders, your breath, your spine.

You freeze.

Cheese! All for that picture.

It’s amazing how the body reacts to fear and uncertainty.

Even when we’re not standing over a cliff, we often carry that same tension - in meetings, in traffic, in our daily lives .

The problem is, we become numb to it.

Our nervous system adapts, our posture compensates, and before long, we forget what true ease feels like.

Pain sets in. And we think it’s normal.

It is not.

Common is different from normal.

That’s why I love what I do everyday - helping people release that hidden tension so their body (and mind) can finally find balance again.

Because life will always have its “Kjeragbolten moments.”

The goal isn’t to avoid them - it’s to embrace them head on with a body that’s calm, connected, and resilient.

📱💪 A 6-pound phone case or 20-20 rule

I was trying to get a feel of how my phone taped to a 6-pound dumbbell feels like.

Got curious after seeing a kickstarter project where a phone case was purposely built to fight phone addiction. It weighs 6lbs (2.722kg)!

It tires your arms out quickly so you wouldn’t use your phone for long.

Unlike our typical clip-on phone cases, you will need an Allen key to fix your phone to the case. Likewise to remove it.

Your kids may hate you if you get this case for them but it might serve its purpose.

It looks as big as their water bottle.

Quite a good deterrent, actually.

Because, nothing you say can stop kids from using their phones these days. Even as adults, we are also glued to our phones. Who knows, this may be a game changer? 😂

But then again, will you pay US$209.15 for a phone case like that?

For me, maybe not, as most of us already have enough weight on our spine and shoulder, literally.

Neck tension, back strain, digital dementia. They all point to one thing: it’s time to lighten the load, even better, get your spine checked.

A heavier phone case may not help your spine, but how about better posture and smarter habits as an alternative?

👍 Here’s what you can do instead: Limit each use (of your smart device) to 20 minutes, then look up at something far away for at least 20 seconds before you start to use again.

Let’s call it the 20-20 rule.

Your spine will thank you. 🙌

Which choice will you choose? Let me know.

How's your fight?

Do you get an adjustment before your fight, like Evander Holyfield and many other boxers do.

To many of us, our lives can be quite a fight. To many, they feel like they are always in a boxing ring. They fight everyday. Some fight to stay alive.

To fight means you are always in a fight or flight mode, and your body is in a high strung state. Spinal misalignment often result, and before long, you can be facing aches and pains that don't go away. Your energy drops and health suffers.

Sounds familiar?

In my office, I help many clients who are "fighters" in every right. Actually, who is not fighting in today's context right?

I help correct their spine alignment, so that they can be free from their bodily pains. So that they can have better brain body connections. So that they can dial down their fight-flight mode. So that they can thrive.

Are you in pain? Would you like to start thriving? DM me, I can help you thrive.

Try getting a chiropractic adjustment before you step into the ring again. Your body will thank you.

Is your cup full or empty? ☕️

I was giving a wellness talk for a group of caregivers last weekend on how to maintain a healthy spine and nerve system organised by CaringWheels Limited at Impact Lim, and at the end of the talk, I asked them this simple question:
“Is your cup full or empty?”

The room went silent. Then a few smiled knowingly. Most just looked away. Their faces tell a story which I can relate, because I am a caregiver myself. I know the pain they go through.

Caregivers are some of the most selfless and resilient people I meet. They give their time, energy, patience, love, often without thinking twice. They give everything they have. But when I asked how many had taken time for themselves in the past week, only a few hands went up.

Such moment reminds us how easily we forget that you can’t pour from an empty cup.

When your cup starts to run dry, your body feels it and tension piles up. You start to slouch, posture suffers and your energy plunges. The nervous system that keeps everything going starts to protest. Neck pain, back pain, headaches start knocking on the door. You start to think that this is part and parcel of life.

It need not be that way.

So I encouraged them, as I’ll encourage you now:
☕ Refill your cup.
💆‍♀️ Take THAT break. Move, rest, breathe.
🩵 Because when you’re well, you care better.

Wellness and spine care is not selfish, it’s essential. You need to thrive so that those around you can thrive. Your spine also needs to be healthy so that you can take care of others.

I can help you thrive. DM me.

Which side of the highway would you rather be on? 🚗🚙🚕

The one that is moving or the one that has slowed to a crawl?

I presume it’s the one that’s moving. That’s the side I would want to be on.

This one with a jam is akin to what is happening inside your body when your spine and nerve system are not functioning at their best, or when your spinal bones are misaligned.

Your brain is sending signals 24/7 to the rest of your body, like traffic from the control tower, but somewhere along the way, things get congested due to a misalignment.

Messages slow down. Interference results. Muscles tighten. Pain appears.

As a chiropractor, my job isn’t just to make a chiropractic adjustment - it’s to clear the jam.
To restore flow.
To help your brain communicate better with your body.
To allow your body to start repairing itself.

When traffic moves freely, the whole city thrives.
When your nerve system flows freely, you thrive. 🌿

I can help you thrive. DM me.
