🧘♂️ Chiropractic Tip of the Day: The Cat-Camel Exercise 🧘♀️
Looking for a gentle way to improve spinal mobility and reduce stiffness? The Cat-Camel exercise is a research-supported movement that promotes flexibility and coordination in the spine — and it's chiropractor-approved! 🦴✨
🔍 Evidence-Based Benefits:
Improves segmental motion in the spine
Helps reduce tension and stiffness
Activates deep spinal stabilizers
Great for warming up before activity or easing into movement after prolonged sitting
✅ How to Do It:
Start on hands and knees in a tabletop position.
Inhale as you slowly arch your back (like a cat), tucking your chin and pelvis.
Exhale as you drop your belly and lift your head and tailbone (like a camel).
Move smoothly between positions taking 3 seconds between the top and the bottom and bottom and top— avoid holding either too long. Aim for 5–10 gentle reps.
📌 Pro tip: This is not a stretch — it’s a mobility exercise. The goal is to move, not hold.
At [Your Clinic Name], we love using simple, effective exercises backed by science to support your spine between adjustments.
