Hi folks. Terri, Beckie, and I hope that the first month of the new year has treated everyone kindly, and that everyone is keeping healthy and happy.

There have been two key topics repeatedly coming up at the office over the past few weeks. One has been the cold and icy weather, and the difficulties it imposes on those of us who's main form of exercise is walking or bicycling. A drop in our activity levels goes hand in hand with weight gain, decreased mood and energy levels, and increased joint and muscle pain and stiffness.

If skiing, snowshoeing, or fat biking aren't in your wheelhouse, Moncton and Dieppe offer nice indoor walking tracks, and there are a myriad of group exercise programs for all age and fitness levels throughout the area. Don't wish to leave home? There are lots of fitness and yoga classes, both free or subscription-based, online (Yoga with Adrienne, which can be found on YouTube, is very popular with a number of our patients).

(The other hot topic has been the pros and cons of inversion therapy, especially through the use of inversion tables. I will touch upon this subject in my next post. Until then, stay happy and healthy.

Hello and Happy New Year, everyone. Terri, Becki, and I hope you all had a joyous and pleasant holiday, and are ready to tackle 2024 with gusto.

While New Year's resolutions may seem cliché, I have found that this is a good time to reflect and take stock of our health and lifestyle habits, and perhaps see if there is room for some positive changes to be made.

While I applaud those who resolve to make major improvements in their health, I also encourage all of us to look for smaller, more manageable habits we can adopt. Perhaps its drinking an extra glass of water or two per day, finding an extra 10 minutes to do some stretching and mobility exercises 3-4x/week, or even shutting off the devices an hour earlier before bedtime.

In the weeks ahead, I will be posting some links and videos that will hopefully help you to more readily make such changes, and adopt some healthy habits that will make 2024 our best year yet!

Why is movement essential to our well-being? Now, more than ever, humans are sitting and becoming less active, than ever before! Learn more from this great clip, posted by the Canadian Chiropractic Council, how you can offset the negative effects!

How many hours a day do you spend sitting? Reading, using computers, driving, watching TV —all that sitting adds up and can cause back and neck pain,

Hello everyone. Our team at the Centre Chiropratique Dieppe Chiropractic Center thanks all of our extended family of patients for their patience during the province’s declared state of emergency. While our normal office operations are still not in effect, we are checking in everyday to answer calls and return messages.
