Here are three reasons why humans suffer from more neck and back problems than any other species.

🧠 Big brains/heavy heads, puts a lot of pressure on the neck
🚶‍♂️Two legs - walking on two legs means all the force gets put through the spine
💪 Capable hands - this means we can lift awkward and heavy items meaning that we can load the low back with weight its not designed to withstand.
👎 Bad habits - the majority of humans sit down for too long, eat bad foods and don't exercise enough which can all lead to back problems

Nat and the grandkids had a ton of fun checking out the Darling Harbour Aquarium and Golden Ridge Farm. Looks like Wally had a blast too!

Despite the 30-hour journey caused by a plane detour due to bad weather, the Sydney experience was totally worth it in the end! ✈️

Louis is out living the adventurous lifestyle once again balancing out his scientific mind with a splash of creativity.

We found this great spot near Blowhole Beach. There were kangaroos all along the hill which were surprisingly tame, and didn't mind having their pictures taken. 🦘

Nat's health tip for the month is to take more walks along the beach. 🌊

Here's why:

- Sea air contains particles of iodine, salt, and magnesium that invigorate the immune system.
- Walking on sand, as opposed to pavement, enhances joint health and strengthens ankles and foot muscles, tones calves, quadriceps, and glutes - lowering injury risk. 👣
- Moderate sun exposure ensures a dose of Vitamin D for overall well-being. 🌞

We've had a Minties Intervention.
Bec caught Louie using Fisherman's Friend mints, those "blast your taste buds" kind. She kindly suggested he switch to Minties instead. Now he's stocked up for a whole year. Thanks Bec!

Each nerve has its own path through our spine, connecting to different organs in our body! 🫀

Untreated spinal misalignments can create nerve interference, interrupting those vital messages from the brain to our organs 🧠, potentially leading to organ dysfunction and chemical imbalances. ⚖️ 🧬

The consequences of untreated spinal misalignments may be both minor and serious health conditions.

And, that's where the Chiropractor comes in to realign your spine and restore harmony to your nervous system.

When we're glued to our screens, our necks can take on an extra 27 kilograms of weight. The further your head drops to look down at your phone, the greater the strain placed on your neck.

We're observing children on iPads, their chins pressed against their necks for extended periods. This behavior can weaken neck muscles and accelerate degeneration.

As adults, we're guilty of the same. Elevate your devices to eye level to prevent strain on your neck and ensure better posture.

Ah, the common question... "Why does a healthy spine matter?"

Dr Louis Cameron sheds the light, on this frequently asked question.

16/04/2024

Just like with all healing, if you're on a journey to spinal wellness and improving your overall health it can feel a little like a rollercoaster ride to begin with. 🎢

In the initial stages, it's common for the spine to transition between correct alignment and misalignment, often reverting to its familiar, misaligned state.

With attentive care and weekly adjustments spanning 1-3 months, Dr. Louis works towards establishing a stable alignment, similar to the gradual alignment process of braces for teeth.

As your body gets used to its newfound alignment, we suggest keeping the good times rolling with regular spinal check-ups every 3-4 weeks to maintain your progress.

Your gestures of appreciation, be it in the form of words, referrals, delightful treats or heartwarming cards, mean the world to us.

Your kindness fuels our commitment to providing the best care possible.

🌞Thank you for brightening our days!

How lucky are we!

🌱 Every choice you make to prioritise your well-being today pays dividends for a healthier tomorrow.

Whether it's nourishing your body with wholesome foods, staying active, or seeking preventative care, remember that every action counts towards a future where you can still do the things you love. ❤️

Make the choice to invest in yourself because good health is another one of those things, where you don't realise what you have until its gone.

💡 Did you know your neck is the ultimate multitasker, making thousands of movements daily? 🍃

Neglecting a misalignment in the neck for an extended period is like ignoring that pesky check engine light in your car – it might seem minor at first, but it could lead to some serious trouble down the road.

A spinal misalignment puts undue stress on surrounding muscles, ligaments, and nerves, which can cause discomfort, headaches, numbness and tingling, stiffness, and reduced mobility in your neck and shoulders - and if left untreated it can lead to early degeneration.
