Healthy habits form the foundation of long-term wellbeing.

Small, consistent choices such as staying active, maintaining good posture, managing stress, and caring for your spine all

Rheumatoid arthritis is a chronic autoimmune condition that causes joint pain, stiffness, and reduced mobility, impacting daily life.

While medical management is essential, chiropractic care plays a supportive role by addressing associated musculoskeletal
discomfort, supporting movement, and helping manage postural strain and muscle tension, always with care adapted to the individual.

Today marks the start of Pregnancy Awareness Week, a time to highlight the importance of supporting maternal health throughout
pregnancy.

As the body changes, the spine, pelvis, and surrounding muscles are placed under increased physical demand. Chiropractic care
during pregnancy focuses on supporting spinal and pelvic function, promoting comfort, mobility, and overall physical well-being
as the body adapts.

Appropriate, evidence-informed chiropractic care may help manage common pregnancy-related musculoskeletal discomforts and support a healthier, more comfortable pregnancy journey.

Birth represents a baby’s first significant physical stress 🎇

During the birthing process, mechanical forces such as compression, traction and rotation act on the spine, particularly the cervical region - eliciting neuromuscular and joint adaptations, influencing early nervous system function.

Adaptive responses may persist beyond the neonatal period which is why early assessment is clinically relevant 🩷
