Traveling over the holidays? 🛫✨

Whether you’re heading off to visit loved ones or taking a much-needed getaway, we want you to travel safely—and keep your spine happy along the way! Long flights, car rides, and heavy luggage can put extra stress on your lower back, sometimes leading to discomfort or musculoskeletal (MSK) issues.

Here are some simple tips to help keep your spine healthy during holiday travel:

1. Support Your Lower Back: Use a small rolled-up pillow, blanket, towel, or lumbar cushion to support the natural curve of your lower back. A slightly reclined position can also help reduce spinal stress.

2. Sit Properly: Keep your knees supported and bent at roughly a 90-degree angle while seated.

3. Move Often: Sitting too long in one position can stiffen your back. Aim to move or stretch every 30 minutes.

4. Lift Smart: When lifting luggage, turn your whole body—pivot with your feet instead of twisting your lower back.

4. Lighten the Load: Avoid overpacking! Heavy carry-ons and overhead lifts can increase your risk of back strain.

5. During Layovers: Use the extra time to stand, stretch, and reset your posture.

Wishing everyone safe travels and a healthy spine this holiday season! 🎅🛫👨‍👩‍👧‍👦

🛏️ Best Sleep Posture = Better Sleep! 😴⁣

Want to wake up pain-free and refreshed? Focus on these 3 essentials:⁣

🧠 **1. Sleep Posture:**⁣
Back or side sleeping is best! Avoid sleeping on your stomach — it strains your neck and spine.⁣

🛏️ **2. Pillow Height:**⁣
• Back sleeper: Medium pillow to support the natural curve of your neck.⁣
• Side sleeper: Firmer, higher pillow to align head, neck & spine.⁣

🧼 **3. Mattress Type:**⁣
• Choose medium-firm for most sleepers.⁣
• It should support your body evenly and keep your spine aligned.⁣

Small changes = major improvement in your sleep quality! 🌙✨⁣

Reintroducing myself for those who are new here!

Hi I’m Dr. Michelle Da Silva🙋🏻‍♀️
The owner and lead Chiropractor at Family Chiropractic and Athlete Care, where I also provide Medical Acupuncture.

I earned my Bachelor of Kinesiology with Honours from the University of Toronto, and went on to complete my Doctor of Chiropractic degree at the Canadian Memorial Chiropractic College (CMCC), graduating with Cum Laude distinction. In addition to my chiropractic training, I’m certified in Functional Integrated Acupuncture, Professional Cupping Therapy & Massage, as well as Standard First Aid and CPR.

With a strong personal background in sports and athletic performance, I’ve had the opportunity to serve as a team doctor for numerous high-performance athletes, and drawing on my own experience as an athlete to inform my care. While I have a particular interest in treating sports injuries, my clinical expertise covers a wide range of musculoskeletal conditions affecting patients of all ages and activity levels.

I’m passionate about helping people reduce pain, recover from injury, and achieve their health and performance goals. My approach is rooted in education, empowerment, and evidence-based care—always with the aim of improving quality of life and supporting each individual in reaching their full potential.
