Back pain is a common complaint 💢🤕

Bending over gardening or lifting something heavy incorrectly - we've all done it.
The best way to find relief is to be assessed by a medical professional and get treatment before the problem escalates.

These injuries can often be attributed to a specific action and therefore may be covered by ACC. Our team can generate ACC claims on site which reduces the cost of treatment.

Come in to discuss your back pain with one of our dedicated and trained osteopaths. No need to sit at home wondering when your back is going to feel better, get a professional to help you.

Book a time to see Matthew, Quint, Sarah or Virginia. Give us a call on 03 599 8050 or book online by searching Koru Wellness.

Daylight savings! Are you still getting used to the change in time? ⌚

Sleep is essential for our health and well-being. 💤We are less likely to be focused on tasks and have less energy to function fully. Sleep deprivation can cause us to lose concentration, make mistakes, and it can have an effect both mentally and physically.

How can we help? Come in and have an osteo session; it can help you relax, improve tension in your muscles, which may help you get a great night's sleep.

Daylight Saving
Time to move your clocks forward an hour.
Sunday 28th September - as we look forward to having more time to do things outdoors in the evenings. Hopefully the days of wonderful sunshine we are having will stay with us and we can run, exercise, do the gardening, enjoy the extra hours of light available in the evenings.
Just make sure you prepare yourselves for the extra activity you do, and if you get a twinge or two, give us a call on 03 599 8050 or book an appointment online at https://www.koruwellness.co.nz/

During sports and life activities, injuries are bound to happen and often result in significant pain, discomfort, and disruption of normal life. Most injuries are avoidable. However, some are not.

We want to share some tips with you to help prevent injury and keep you living your best life.

Tip 1: Stay hydrated. Try to average around 2-3L of water per day and keep your tissues and brain sharp and strong. 💧

Tip 2: Get quality sleep. Most adults require around 7-9 hours of sleep to perform at their best. Sleep is also when your body repairs and regenerates. 💤

Tip 3: Follow a balanced diet to refuel your body (check out Health New Zealand's guidelines for activity and eating). 🍎

Tip 4: Remain active. Performing daily activities such as walking, biking, running, and resistance training can help you remain strong and protect against injuries. Just make sure to gradually expose yourself to these activities and avoid going all in too quickly.🏃‍♀️

Tip 5: Stress management. Managing stress levels is important for psychological and physical health. Stress can be managed via the tips explained above, breathing exercises, participating in enjoyable activities, and having a rest day. ☺️

We are reminded of Spring with all the beautiful daffodils blooming around us. A time when we feel more energised and maybe thinking about starting a new fitness regimen. We need to remember to care for our bodies while we take on these extra challenges and having an osteo treatment can help prepare us.

Daffodil Day is Friday August 29th, reminding us of all those who have or are going through cancer. Daffodil Day helps us to focus on all those who are affected by cancer - friends, family, acquaintances and is also a timely reminder to everyone to take time out to care for yourselves.

So let's hit the ground running, get out there, do a little exercise, relax, unwind and live life to the full. And if you need a little help from us to relieve any niggles then give us a call on 03 599 8050 or make an appointment online at https://www.koruwellness.co.nz/

Navigating the internet when searching for answers about aches and pains can be very confusing, overwhelming, scary, and misleading 😖😕🤷❓. A lot of websites offer good information, but they fail to consider your individual circumstances, such as your job requirements, physical activities, past medical history, family medical history, mechanism of injury, movement patterns, and many other factors.

Here at Koru Wellness, our wonderful osteopaths consider all of the above and much more to create a tailored and adaptable treatment and management strategy for your aches and pains.
