Too often people that come in to see us with sciatica have been putting with it for way too long.

Sound like you?

Pain and stiffness in the low back and leg, impact every aspect of daily life, from getting out of bed to sitting and watching a movie.

More stretching isn’t helping? More rest isn’t helping?

At Errol Street Chiropractic we know that the path to recovery starts with a thorough assessment and detailed plan of action to:
-get your low back functioning with specific chiropractic adjustments
- spinal traction (if warranted) to relieve nerve pressure in the low back
- rehabilitation to increase strength and stability in the core
- postural awareness

If you need help, find out if we can help - let’s start with a spinal assessment.

Headaches often originate from the upper neck, causing pain that refers into the head and face.

This can be due to a few reasons;
- subluxations (stuck joints) in upper neck
- changes to posture, such as Forward Head Posture, creating tension in upper neck
- whiplash that’s unresolved
Just to name a few.

All of these can irritate nerves in the upper neck that refer to the side of the head and face.

This is a very common type of headache that we see daily in our office.

Too many people are suffering with these ‘cervicogenic’ headaches and don’t know what to do other than masking the symptoms with medication.

A thorough assessment can reveal upper neck issues that can be resolved with chiropractic adjustments.

Is it time you had your neck and posture assessed?

Message us if that sounds like something you need to do!

Concordia Conference in Adelaide! What a weekend-
Australian Chiropractic College (ACC) showed that their high standards were met, not only by their new graduates, but also reflected in the quality of Australian and international speakers.

Well done Patrick Sim - you did an amazing job (again) with Concordia this weekend. You should be super proud of yourself!

I encourage more chiropractors to attend the ACC conferences!
See you there next time.

Why is it that some people with a disc injury heal faster than others with a similar injury?

Dr Sasha, one of the chiropractors at Errol Street Chiropractic, gives us some insights.
He talks about 3 reasons why healing rates differ:
- people’s pain threshold
- immune response that is mounted
- level of inflammation in the body when injury is sustained

Each person that we see in our office has a different level of healing ability and one of our jobs is to give appropriate care in the office, but to also give people the best advice when they leave the office.

This advice is designed to support their healing at home (rest level, nutrition, supplementation etc), and both the in office care and home advice - gives our people the best chance to heal from their disc injury.

If you’re struggling with a disc injury then reach out - we’re here to help.

Find out why Dr Lisa added Chiropractic BioPhysics (CBP) to her practice alongside traditional Chiropractic care.

It’s so effective at changing poor spinal alignment that her son started practicing CBP too!

Getting great results matters - a combination at Chiropractic PLUS chiropractic BioPhysics seems to be their magic 🪄 formula!

She can’t understand why more Chiros aren’t adding the most researched treatment in improving spinal alignment in the whole wide world 🌍!

Most disc injuries don’t need more rest. They need space.

Simple things like driving 🚘 getting dressed 👚and tying your shoes 👞 can all cause flare ups.

You’ve probably tried resting more…maybe stretching… maybe even avoiding movement all together.

When that disc is compressed, it irritates everything around it. That’s why it keeps flaring up.

So instead of more stretching… we want to focus in taking the pressure off.

How?
With spinal traction.

A deep spinal stretch that decompresses your disc bulge.

Take pressure off = less irritation = faster recovery

If resting is not cutting it anymore, DM “DISC”

How long?
36th year this year!

Sometimes it even sounds crazy to me!
Recently, l was at a reunion with my chiropractic uni classmates-we stated 40years ago!
The extra amazing thing is that many of us are still practicing!

So excited that my son. Sasha, has joined the practice. But don’t worry, I’m still around!

With many of the chronic NECK issues we find that a severe reduction, loss or even reversal of the normal forward neck curve (ideally measuring 40 degrees) is a large part of the increase load on the neck joints and tissues, leading to stiffness, tension and too often, PAIN.

Over time…
The changes in biomechanics loads the spine unevenly, not only creating inflammation (you may know this as pain) but deformation of vertebra and joints - this degeneration is otherwise known as
osteo-ARTHRITIS.

Let’s be clear-
if one area of your spine has worn away/degenerated and other areas not, then, this IS NOT an age related problem.

The longer the spine stays out of alignment and curves are far from ideal- the quicker the spine wears away-
in that specific area.

Not the whole spine.

Nothing to do with how old you are, it has all to do with uneven load.

You only have one spine.

Gaining and maintaining balance and function in the spine will keep your spine healthier and you feeling stronger!

When was the last time you had your spine checked?

Our office prides itself in diving deep into analysing spinal alignment and function with Chiropractic
AND
Chiropractic BioPhysics (CBP)
allowing us to restore spinal joint function and improving alignment.

It just makes sense-why ignore the underlying structural changes!

We address both function AND alignment, providing better outcomes for our people and for longer period of time.

CBP has over 377 peer reviewed papers that are clinically relevant - assisting our healthcare objectives.

Message us if you’d like to know more about our approach to a healthier spine.
