Most of South Africa are back to work after a month of rest and relaxation over the festive season. As a result we are back to the same chairs and poor posture we have had to endure day in and day out
at the office.

Many people spend up to 8 hours per day sitting behind a screen on very poorly supported chairs. Simple changes to your chair can be made with the use of a lumbar support cushion to prevent back ache. Ask your CASA-registered chiropractor about a lumbar support cushion which will assist with posture throughout the day: https://membership.chiropractic.co.za/Public/Index #/findAChiropractor

True or False?

“You always need a referral letter to see a CASA-registered chiropractor.”

False

Chiropractors are considered first line practitioners and, in most cases, a referral from your General Practitioner is not necessary to seek the care of a chiropractor. Your CASA-registered chiropractor can
assist with a full evaluation of your problem and treat accordingly.

Please note this differs with each medical aid so please check with your respective insurance companies.
