Stress gets a bad rap… but not all stress is harmful. In fact, some stress is essential for growth and resilience. What matters most is your load — and how quickly your nervous system can shift out of fight-or-flight and back into balance. This month we’re revisiting pieces of September’s Stress Overload Syndrome workshop and building toward February’s Health Reset for Midlife Women. If your system feels “stuck on ON,” this series is for you. → Let’s start with the basics: what stress really is, and how your body adapts.

**Is your posture stressing your brain? 😣
Many people feel tight by 3PM and assume it’s “just posture”… but your nervous system plays a huge role.

Forward-flexed, screen-heavy positions can actually signal “stress mode” to your brain — and reinforce the tension cycle.

I’ve written a short blog that explains this posture–neurology loop in a simple way.

Clinic Hours Update & Thank You

A gentle reminder that the clinic will be closed this Tuesday as I attend my father’s funeral. On Wednesday morning, our family will also be scattering the remainder of my late sister’s ashes.
The clinic will reopen Wednesday at 2pm, and Monday and Thursday hours remain unchanged.

Thank you for the kindness, care and condolences so many of you have extended. I’m grateful for strong family support and for a vocation I truly love — both are helping guide me through this time with meaning and purpose, even in the sadness.

Everyone affected has already been rescheduled. If anything urgent arises on Tuesday, my team will respond first thing Wednesday.

Thank you for your understanding and compassion.
— Dr. Paula 🤍

The secret to my energy? It’s not luck—it’s strategy.

I lift. I fuel my body. I get adjusted regularly.

As a woman in midlife, these aren’t “extras”—they’re my foundation. They support my work, my health, and the way I show up for the people who count on me.

And if you’re feeling the shifts of peri-menopause and craving clarity, strength, and support… something special is coming in early February.

A brand-new workshop designed specifically for midlife women—your reset, your blueprint, your permission to feel powerful again.

Stay tuned. 💛

20 Years of Providing Chiropractic Care for Patients from Nought to Ninety-Nine & Beyond…

Dr Paula established The Chiropractic Domain (then called: Stacey Chiropractic) in Goodwood and Mt Barker in the Adelaide Hills in July 1998. In 2008 the Mt Gambier location was offically opened.

A little about Dr Paula Stacey-Thomas “Welcome to The Chiropractic Domain Community and thank you for stopping by. I have had a strong passion to be a Chiropractor since I was 10 years of age. I still get joy and immense measure of pleasure from being part of a person’s healing journey. I love performing adjustments….20 years down the track I still think it is cool! I grew up in Goodwood, but never expected to own a business here. My Mount Gambier connection is through my husband who was born there. I commenced my chiropractic studies at the University of Adelaide and completed them at Macquarie University with a Masters in Chiropractic in 1996. I have been a practicing chiropractor since that time and in 1998, opened my own clinics in Mt Barker and Goodwood (formerly known as Stacey Chiropractic). I have since sold her Mt Barker practice and now run Goodwood and Mt Gambier clinics. I served for number of years on the Chiropractor’s Association of Australia (CAA), including a term as State President. In 2006 I was awarded National Chiropractor of the Year for my work as Program Manager National Healthy Spines Health promotion project www.healthyspines.com.au. I have also been a Telstra Business Awards finalist on three occasions. I always strive for ways to improve and extend the quality of service offered at the Chiropractic Domain, and keep up to date with technological advances within the chiropractic profession. I have special interest in caring for babies and children and my passion for Chiropractic care for children has only grown since starting a family of my own. When I’m not at one of the practices I am with my family that includes my daughter and identical twin sons as well as two adult step-children. We are a busy (at time chaotic house hold with a love of water sports, racquet sports and good food. I love when I get the chance to be near on or in the water, diving or swimming. In recently years I have developed a passion for cycling and motorbike.”
