🎒Back to School: Keep Their Backs Happy!
As the summer holidays come to a close and routines return, it’s time to prep for school runs, packed lunches… and heavy backpacks!
Supporting your child’s comfort and posture is just as important as ticking off the shopping list.
📚 If your child is carrying lots of books or gear to and from school, here are a few ways to reduce strain on their growing bodies:
✅ Choose a lightweight backpack with wide, padded shoulder straps
✅ Encourage them to wear it on both shoulders
✅ Opt for bags with multiple compartments to distribute weight
✅ Pack the heaviest items closest to their back
✅Regularly empty out unnecessary items to keep the load manageable
✅ Avoid the extra toys & accessories that add unnecessary weight
🎯 And if your child is already complaining of back or shoulder discomfort, a check-in with your osteopath can help ease the tension and support a smooth start to the term.

😕Struggling with chronic low back pain?Avoiding exercise might be making it worse.
A recent study published in the British Journal of Sports Medicine found that a 12-week run/walk program helped reduce both pain intensity and disability in people with chronic low back pain.
🌎Over 620 million people worldwide live with this condition. Many avoid movement, thinking it will protect their back. But gentle, structured exercise , like walking or light jogging can actually help.
👉If you are dealing with back pain, you don’t have to stay still. Movement, when guided and gradual, can be part of the solution.
The secret is to start small and build up gradually. A structure plan like intervals of walking and running can ease your back into movement safely and effectively.
If you’re unsure where to start, we can help you create a personalised, pain safe movement plan. Let osteopathy guide your return to better movement.

⭐️Whilst resting a shoulder in the initial stages is important after an acute injury or surgery to allow tissue repair, complete inactivity can result in stiffness and muscle wasting.
👉A balance of rest and controlled movement is important for optimal recovery and a return to normal function.
👉In the first 24-48 hours limit activities that aggravate the pain, especially lifting and overhead activities.
👉Rest with the shoulder injury a comfortable position, but keep the shoulder gently mobile within a pain free range for a few minutes every hour, unless you have been told by your surgeon not too.
❤️As your pain reduces, some mobility and strengthening exercises are important to help your recovery, and we can tailor these for you and offer help and advice about what to do and what to avoid.
👉Take care not to overload the joint and avoid movements that cause sudden pain or significant discomfort.
❤️If you have a painful shoulder and are not sure what is causing the pain, a detailed case history and a thorough examination from an osteopath can help ensure you get the best treatment approach and appropriate rehabilitation advice.

⭐️If your shoulder’s been bothering you and you’re not sure what to do, feel free to contact us. Let movement be part of your healing journey, not just a final step.

Hydration and Musculoskeletal Health: Why Staying Hydrated is Essential for Muscle and Joint Function.
💦Improved Circulation:
Staying Hydrated helps to maintain adequate blood volume, which facilitates the efficient delivery of oxygen and nutrients to muscles.
✅Your muscles are approximately 75% water, meaning proper hydration is essential for them to function effectively and perform at their best.When your muscles are dehydrated, you’re more likely to experience cramps or stiffness.
💙Proper hydration plays a crucial role in recovery from injuries. Without adequate hydration, your body may take longer to eliminate waste, which can delay the healing process.

Stay hydrated and keep those joints happy!
