✨ One of my favourite parts of being a chiropractor is the moments of connection I get to share — both in the clinic and at home.

As a mum to this beautiful teen, I know how important it is to nurture their growing bodies, but also their minds and hearts. Chiropractic isn’t just about alignment, it’s about supporting balance, resilience, and helping them feel connected to themselves. 💫

Here’s to raising strong, grounded kids — and reminding them they’re never alone on the journey. 💕

💭 Headaches – It’s Not Always About Water

We often hear: “You’ve got a headache? You must be dehydrated.”

The truth is, you’d have to be severely dehydrated before your brain shrinks enough to trigger pain. So while water is important, it’s not always the answer.

Headaches are complex. They can be influenced by:
✨ Stress and neck stiffness
✨ Sleep quality
✨ Posture and muscle tension
✨ Hormones
✨ Lifestyle factors

Let’s stop moralising headaches as if they’re your “fault” for forgetting a glass of water.

A supportive tool to know about is magnesium. It plays a role in muscle relaxation, nerve function, and energy balance — and you can find it naturally in foods like leafy greens, nuts, and seeds.

At Barefoot Chiro, we take a big-picture approach. Lifestyle, movement, and nervous system health all matter when it comes to feeling your best.

💬 What have you noticed are your biggest headache triggers?

Have you read our latest blog written by our very own Dr Michael Maeder (Chiropractor). If you suffer with any type of neck pain, then take a moment to read!

Chiropractors will assess more than your neck pain when you present with neck pain as often the point of pain isn't the primary problem.

Did You Know? ✨

Your head weighs about 5kg (the same as a bowling ball 🎳)… but when you tilt it forward just 30 degrees (like when looking at your phone), it puts up to 18kg of pressure on your neck.

That’s like carrying a small child around on your shoulders all day 😬 — no wonder so many people get neck pain, stiffness and headaches!

At Barefoot Chiro, we use PostureScreen assessment at your initial appointment to measure these angles and see exactly how your spine is coping. From there, we provide gentle chiropractic adjustments to help restore your natural posture and reduce strain 🌿

💡 Chiro Tip of the Day!

Your spine loves movement.

If you’ve been sitting for more than 30 minutes, stand up, roll your shoulders back, and take a slow walk to reset your posture.

Tiny movement breaks keep your joints happy, your muscles active, and your nervous system switched on — so your body can do what it’s designed to do: move naturally. 🌿

What’s your favourite way to add movement into your day? 👇

Neck pain flaring up this winter? ❄️😣

You’re not alone—cold weather can tighten muscles, reduce circulation, and make old injuries feel worse.

One simple tip: keep your neck warm. A soft scarf, heat pack, or even a warm shower can help relax those stiff muscles and improve blood flow!

But if the ache is sticking around or getting worse, don’t wait it out—gentle chiropractic care can help ease tension, improve movement, and get you back to feeling good again.
