Sciatica is a type of pain that radiates along the path of the sciatic nerve. This major nerve, the longest in the body, originates from the lower lumbar and sacral regions of the spine. It branches out into several smaller nerves that run down each leg, controlling muscles and relaying sensations. When the nerve gets compressed, it can cause pain, tingling, or numbness in the leg.

Anatomy at play: In the lumbar spine, vertebrae are separated by intervertebral discs that act as cushions. When these discs herniate or bulge, they can press on the sciatic nerve roots.

We are here to help with manual therapies and ergonomic advice, tailored to your needs. ☎️ If you’re experience sciatica (or any nerve pain for that matter!) call us on 03 5822 1258 to make an appointment today.

Anatomy Fact: The speed of nerves ⚡

Did you know? Nerve signals can travel through the body at speeds of up to 120 meters per second. Fast - Like driving at 432km per hour! To put that in perspective, it’s roughly comparable to the speed of some high-speed military jets during rapid acceleration. Turns out we all have a need for speed. This lightning-fast speed allows your body to respond instantly to stimuli, whether you're reacting to a sudden threat, pulling your hand back from a burn, or maintaining balance.

If you're experiencing nerve-related pain or discomfort, call 03 5822 1258 to make an appointment with us here at Hawtin Chiropractic.

Word of the Month: Whiplash 🚗💥

The term “whiplash” was coined in 1928 by Dr Harold Crowe, right in the midst of the Roaring Twenties, when cars were speeding along at incredible speeds of up to 30mph 🏎️ — but without the safety standards we have today! As automobiles became common, so did the injuries from sudden collisions, leading to a rise in neck injuries like whiplash.

Of course, whiplash incidents existed before cars. Falls, horseback riding, and other sudden impacts also caused similar injuries long before they had a name.

Whether from a car accident or another cause, chiropractic care offers targeted adjustments that may relieve pain and restore neck mobility. If you’re suffering from whiplash, call 03 5822 1258 to book an appointment at Hawtin Chiropractic.

💥 Fun Fact: Intervertebral Discs 💥

Meet your flexible friends: the intervertebral discs! These little miracle workers sit between the bones in your spine and do a lot more than you might think. They help us move, bend, and twist, while also absorbing the force that acts on our bodies. 🌟

Without these discs, everyday activities like bending over to tie your shoes or even walking would be a whole lot harder! If you're experiencing any back discomfort or stiffness, our chiropractors are here to help your spine - and those discs – to work as they should.

Struggling with spondylolisthesis? We’re here to help! 🧘‍️

Spondylolisthesis happens when one vertebra slips out of place onto the vertebra below it, often causing back pain, stiffness, or even nerve compression. It can occur due to injury, degeneration, or congenital issues. If left untreated, it may lead to discomfort or difficulty moving.

Chiropractic care can assist by:
✔️ Aligning the spine to relieve pressure on the nerves.
✔️ Strengthening the muscles around the spine to improve stability through guided exercises.
✔️ Providing targeted adjustments and gentle mobilisation to ease pain and restore movement.

Don’t let spondylolisthesis slow you down - call us on 03 5822 1258 today to get started on your path to recovery!

Feeling the squeeze? Let’s talk about Thoracic Outlet Syndrome! 💪

Thoracic Outlet Syndrome (TOS) occurs when nerves or blood vessels are compressed as they pass through the thoracic outlet, a tight space near your collarbone. This can lead to pain, tingling, or weakness in the arm and hand, often caused by poor posture, repetitive strain, or injury. 🖐️

Chiropractic care can help by:
✔️ Realigning the spine to reduce pressure on the nerves.
✔️ Releasing tension in the muscles surrounding the thoracic outlet.
✔️ Improving posture and mobility for long-term relief.
If you’re dealing with TOS, don’t wait—call us on 03 5822 1258 today and start feeling better!

🌟 The human body has an incredible ability to repair and heal itself, given the right conditions. Chiropractic care is built around this principle, focusing on helping your body function at its best. By improving spinal alignment, chiropractors aim to reduce interference in the nervous system 🧠, which plays a key role in communication between the brain and body. This approach doesn’t rely on medication or surgery but instead supports your body’s natural recuperative powers. 💪

✨ Ready to enhance your body’s potential for recovery? Call us on 03 5822 1258 to book an appointment today!

Lift Smart, Stay Strong! 💪📦

Improper lifting is one of the leading causes of back pain and injuries, but the good news is it’s preventable! When lifting, remember to:

✔️ Bend with the knees, not with your back.
✔️ Keep the load close to your body.
✔️ Avoid twisting while lifting—turn with your feet instead.
✔️ Pace yourself. Don’t go from lifting nothing to lifting everything in a day. (Bad news when moving house 🏠)

Using proper lifting techniques not only protects your back, but also ensures your muscles and joints work efficiently. If you’re feeling the strain after lifting, we can help with expert assessments and tailored treatments to ease discomfort and prevent future injuries.
