๐ŸŒฟ SOT: Reducing Tension, Restoring Balance ๐ŸŒฟ
At Shaw Chiropractic Clinic, we use Sacral Occipital Technique (SOT) to help your nervous system function at its best.

Neurosurgeon Alf Breig showed that the brain and spinal cord act like one continuous tension system. When the spinal structures are under postural strain, it can create Adverse Mechanical Tension โ€” a pulling or strain on the nervous system that can affect a myriad of bodily functions.

โœจ How SOT Helps:
SOT gently balances the neural tube, spinal cord, and the cavity around it using specific blocks and precise, low-force adjustments. This reduces tension and helps the brain and body communicate clearly.

๐Ÿ’ก When the nervous system is balanced, your body can return to a stable internal environment โ€” meaning better coordination, smoother function, and natural healing can occur.

๐ŸŒŸ PLAY: Fuel for a Healthy Nervous System ๐ŸŒŸ
At Shaw Chiropractic Clinic, we know that one of the simplest ways to support your brain and body is through play โ€” at any age.

๐Ÿง  Play boosts neuroplasticity, your nervous systemโ€™s ability to form new connections. This keeps you adaptable, resilient, and better able to handle lifeโ€™s stresses.

Hereโ€™s how play strengthens your nervous system:

๐Ÿค Social Play โ€“ Interaction challenges your brain to respond, adapt, and communicate.
๐Ÿƒโ€โ™‚๏ธ Physical Play โ€“ New movement patterns build fresh neural pathways.
๐Ÿงฉ Cognitive Play โ€“ Problem-solving and creativity sharpen thinking and strengthen connections.

When we play, we grow.
So this week, make time to move, think โ€” and PLAY.

Coordination is defined in the Oxford Dictionary as "the organisation of the different elements of a complex body or activity so as to enable them to work together effectively".

We see this in a bee hive. Each worker has a role from cleaning cells, feeding younger bees, defence and building and maintenance of the hive.

They must work in harmony in order to maintain the structure of the hive and produce the fruit of their labour, honey!

Our bodies require this same level of coordination as the bee hive, all of our cells with their individual function must work together in order to achieve: movement, immunity, cognition, filtration and excretion, just to name a few.

This is all coordinated via your nervous system.

As the seasons change, so do our bodies!

If your body is asking for more rest, heartier food, and more time with family and friends, then you are functioning just as intended.

Structure reflects function.

The Clifton suspension bridge is under maintenance at the moment and you may think twice about crossing if you were to see a structural fault!

Callum was yet to have symptoms, similar to how the suspension bridge was, functional, but under maintenance, as you can see from his posture he had a misalignment in the upper neck.

This was detected at his regular check up and corrected before his body could express symptoms. Similar to how bolts are replaced on the suspension bridge before it can express a major fault.

When was the last time you had your nervous system assessed?

Max and Callum are both adjusted weekly as part of their own maintenance care.

Chiropractic doesn't have to be only utilised when you have symptoms.

Keeping a nervous system free from interference not only allows a body to heal but increases your body's resilience to daily stressors and activities.

IF every light went out in your house would you run around and check every single bulb or go to the Fusebox?

Chiropractic identifies the root cause of your dysfunction, checking your nervous system (the fusebox) rather than where you feel the problem (the lightbulb).

Choose Chiropractic. Choose a natural healing art that gets to the root cause.

๐ŸŒ World Mental Health Day ๐ŸŒฟ

Today we celebrate the incredible connection between the mind, body, and nervous system โ€” a truth recognised in chiropractic since its earliest days.

Dr. Leo Spears, one of chiropracticโ€™s great pioneers, beautifully said:

โ€œWhen the interference is removed, the mind clears, and the person expresses more peace, better judgment, and emotional balance."

At his famous sanatorium, Dr. Spears cared for people struggling with their mental health using a holistic approach that included chiropractic adjustments, exercise, nourishing food, meaningful conversation, and time in nature. He understood that true healing happens when the whole person is supported โ€” physically, mentally, and emotionally.

At Shaw Chiropractic Clinic, we continue that same philosophy today: helping people restore balance, ease, and connection through the power of the nervous system.

๐Ÿ‚ Change is in the Air ๐Ÿ‚

Hereโ€™s Callum taking a moment to soak in the shifting seasons โ€” the crisp air, the changing colours, the slower rhythm that autumn brings.

Just like nature, our bodies also move with the seasons. As the sunlight fades, we might notice changes โ€” needing a bit more rest, craving heartier foods, or feeling our energy shift as our body works to stay warm and balanced.

These are signals from your nervous system, guiding you to adapt and stay in harmony with your environment. The key is to listen. ๐ŸŒฟ
