The Spine: A Guide to Healthy Alignment 🦴✨

Your spine is more than just a stack of bones - it’s a complex structure that supports your body, protects your spinal cord, and enables movement. Proper alignment helps distribute weight evenly, reduces strain on muscles and joints, and supports overall posture.

Here at our clinic, our team assess your spine, work to correct misalignments, and provide guidance on posture, exercises, and daily habits that support a strong, healthy spine. Even small adjustments to how you sit, stand, or lift can make a big difference over time.

Call or go online to make an appointment with one of our chiropractors today!

🌍 Did you know? 🧬⚡

Your body doesn’t store energy like a battery. It creates it moment by moment in tiny structures called mitochondria – the powerhouses of your cells. These convert oxygen and nutrients into ATP, the molecule your body uses for energy.

To support healthy mitochondria:
💧 Stay hydrated
🥦 Eat nutrient-rich whole foods
🫁 Move regularly to improve circulation
😴 Prioritise sleep
🧯 Reduce chronic inflammation
🙌 Manage stress

That last one is where chiropractic care may be particularly helpful. By supporting spinal alignment and nervous system function, chiropractic care works to optimise the systems that regulate and nourish your cells, helping your mitochondria do what they do best – keep you energised.

Our new low level laser therapy works brilliantly at restoring mitochondrial dysfunction too!

Stat of the Month 📊

Did you know that 20–40% of adults over 60 are affected by age-related hyperkyphosis? That’s the excessive forward rounding of the upper spine - often seen as a hunched or stooped posture.

While some change in posture with age is natural, excessive curvature can lead to pain, balance problems, breathing difficulties, and reduced quality of life.
Chiropractors assess spinal alignment, mobility, and muscle imbalances to help manage posture-related conditions like hyperkyphosis, supporting older adults to move more freely and confidently.

Healthy posture isn’t just about standing tall - it’s about living well.

Quick Exercise: Kettlebell Swing 🏋️‍

Want power, posture and a stronger back? The kettlebell swing is your new best friend.

This dynamic move strengthens your glutes, hamstrings and core, all while reinforcing healthy hip movement and spinal control.

Start with feet shoulder-width apart, kettlebell in both hands. Hinge at the hips (don’t squat!), swing the kettlebell back between your legs, then drive through your hips to swing it to chest height. Your arms stay relaxed - the power comes from your hips, not your shoulders.

Done right, this is a brilliant way to boost strength and protect your spine. Done wrong… well, let’s not go there.

Looking for a healthier long-term way to manage pain? ➡️👐
If you’re reaching for painkillers or anti-inflammatories more often than you’d like, it might be time to explore another approach.

Chiropractic care works with your body’s structure - especially your spine, joints and nervous system - to help reduce tension, restore mobility, and support your body’s natural healing response.

While medication has its place, it often focuses on short-term relief. We look at the bigger picture: what’s causing the pain, and how can we help your body move and function better in the long run?

Curious about whether chiropractic care could support you? Call us or tell us in the comments what’s been bothering your body lately.

Such wise words from the man who gave us Peter Pan, the boy who never wanted to grow up, but still somehow knew a thing or two about grown-up joy.

There’s magic in learning to enjoy the here and now. Not just the grand adventures, but the quiet rituals: your morning walk, your regular workout, even doing the dishes (no pixie dust required). There’s nothing wrong with mixing things up, but if you’re always chasing the new then you risk missing out on the now.

But if everyday movement starts to feel like a battle with your shadow, that can start to steal that joy. That’s where we come in. We support your spine, posture and mobility - so you can move freely, with less pain, and a little more joy.

Because when your body’s working well, life feels a little more… second star to the right. ✨

Pelvic Torsion: When Your Foundation Isn’t Level 🦴⚖️

Your pelvis is the structural base for your spine - and when it’s out of alignment, everything above (and below) can feel it.

Pelvic torsion happens when one side of the pelvis rotates forward or backward compared to the other, creating an uneven foundation. This twist can affect your posture, your gait, and even how force travels through your hips, back, knees and feet.

You might not even realise your pelvis is off; it can show up as lower back pain, hip discomfort, leg length differences, or that mysterious feeling of being “crooked” no matter how much you stretch.

We assess for imbalances like pelvic torsion and use targeted chiropractic techniques to help restore alignment, reduce tension, and get you moving more evenly again.

Been feeling a little lopsided lately? Let’s take a look.

Word of the Month: Geriatric 👵🧓

/ˌdʒɛr.iˈæt.rɪk/

Let’s clear something up… geriatric isn’t just a fancy word for “old.” It comes from the Greek gēras (meaning old age) and iatros (meaning healer or physician). First coined in the early 1900s, it literally means “healing of the aged.”

In healthcare, geriatric care refers to the specialised support of older adults, focusing on mobility, balance, joint health, and independence. And chiropractic care has a growing role here.

With gentle, tailored techniques, chiropractors can support age-related issues like spinal stiffness, posture changes, or general aches and pains - without medication or invasive treatment. Call us for an appointment or go online!

Because aging is inevitable - but discomfort doesn’t have to be.

Tension headaches: When stress hits your neck, not just your mind 🤯💥

A dull, pressing pain around your temples or the back of your head? It could be a tension headache - and it’s one of the most common types out there.

Often triggered by stress, poor posture, or jaw clenching, tension headaches are linked to tight muscles in the neck, shoulders, and upper back. When those muscles become overworked or strained, they can refer pain up into the head.

Chiropractic care may help relieve discomfort by addressing the muscle tension, joint stiffness, and spinal misalignment that contribute to these headaches. We’ll also help you identify postural habits or lifestyle factors that might be setting them off.

Because less tension = fewer headaches = better days.
Sick of powering through with pain? Call us or go online to book! We’re here to help 🤲

😣 Pain at the base of your skull? You could be dealing with a tension headache — one of the most common (and most frustrating) types of headache.

Often described as a dull, tight pressure or band-like ache, tension headaches can build up from the neck and shoulders, especially after long hours at a desk, poor posture, stress, or muscle fatigue.

When the muscles at the base of the skull become tense or irritated, they can refer pain into the head — making it feel like your whole skull is under pressure.

Our chiropractors assess spinal alignment, posture, and muscle tension to help relieve the underlying causes — not just the symptoms.

Call us or go online to make an appointment and find out how we can help ease the pressure.
