Stress and injury. 😮‍💨

Ever noticed how all your little niggles seem to show up at the exact same time life gets hectic?
Work deadlines piling up… home stress bubbling in the background… your plate overflowing — and suddenly your neck twinges, your back locks up, or that old shoulder issue decides to make a comeback.

Stress and injury are more connected than we think.

When our body is in constant fight or flight, or spends more time with our sympathetic nervous system switched on, it can easily neglect adequate tissue healing and msk recovery.

When stress ramps up, your nervous system shifts into protection mode.
Your muscles stay tighter.
Your breathing rate increases, and becomes more shallow. Belly breathing goes out the window.
Your recovery gets slower.
Your sleep may drop in both quantity and quality.

Research shows that during periods of high stress, people experience significantly higher rates of injury — whether that’s athletes, workers, or anyone juggling a heavy life load.

Stress doesn’t just increase the risk of injury…
It slows down healing too.
Your tissues repair more slowly, inflammation sticks around longer, and progress feels frustratingly stagnant.

At Momentum Health & Chiro, it’s our job to look at the whole you.
Not just the sore spot you walked in with.
But your lifestyle, your training regime, your nutrition, your stress, your sleep and so much more.
All the things that might be affecting your body’s ability to recover, rebuild and perform.

We may not be the practitioner to assist with some of these areas, but we are certainly going to educate you on them, how they contribute to your injury and point you in the direction of someone we can integrate and work with to support you!

🌸 Fun Fact Friday – Strength Training & Pregnancy 🌸

Did you know that adding 1–2 sessions of safe, supervised strength training per week during pregnancy can help reduce low back and pelvic pain, limit excessive weight gain, boost energy and sleep, and build resilience for all the incredible changes your body goes through? 💪🤰
(Based on a review of 9 clinical trials in 1,580+ pregnant women.)

Stronger muscles, especially through your core, hips, glutes and back, help your body better cope with the extra load of pregnancy: the growing baby, shifting centre of gravity, and increased ligament laxity.

Plus, improved sleep, energy and mood can make the whole pregnancy journey smoother — less fatigue, better recovery, and more confident movement.

And as a bonus? A stronger, more mobile, and more resilient body may also help you manage the demands of labour — from the pushing phase to overall endurance. 🍼✨

Have you ever seen a healthcare provider for an injury and felt like all they did was chase your pain?

Maybe they only focused on the exact spot that hurt, and nothing really changed. The pain either hung around or came straight back. That approach sells you short.

Our chiropractors take a different path. We stand firmly behind holistic care and movement-based assessment because your body never works in isolated parts.

In this video we walk you through what a lower back or lower limb physical exam will look like at Momentum. Yes, we start with orthopaedic tests to identify the tissue involved and reach a clear diagnosis. That is essential.

The difference is that our assessment keeps going. We layer on a full movement screen to look at your;

• general movement capabilities
• joint mobility
• strength and endurance with objective measures.

These pieces tell us the story behind your injury and help us understand the “why” rather than just the “what” or the “where.”

This also gives us a solid baseline so we can track your progress, guide your rehab and help you return stronger than before. 💪🏼

If you want care that treats the problem and not just the pain, you’re in the right place.

• WHAT’S UP WEDNESDAY •

This week Dr Brooke is diving into all things chiropractic care during pregnancy.
Your body goes through huge changes to support your growing baby, and with that can come the familiar aches, pains and movement restrictions many mums notice.

Dr Brooke will cover why these changes happen, what we commonly see in clinic and how gentle, pregnancy-specific chiropractic care can help.
From lower back pain to pelvic discomfort, rib tightness or headaches, there are safe and effective ways to support your body through every trimester.

Our approach is always tailored to both Mum and baby. We adjust techniques, positioning and pressure to make sure you feel comfortable and looked after while still receiving effective treatment.

Your pregnancy journey matters. If you are feeling stiff, sore or simply not moving the way you want to, we are here to help you feel stronger, safer and more supported.

🤰🏼Ever felt more lower-back pain, extra movement through your pelvis or that odd sense of instability during pregnancy? First, second or third pregnancy… it can be common as your body adjusts and accommodates for your growing baby!

Your abdominal wall stretches, your posture shifts and your pelvis absorbs more load. A responsive, well-activated core helps support these changes so you feel stable and more comfortable. You do not need to brace hard. You need coordination, breath and controlled strength. Our team of practitioners work with you to your capabilities and your pain level to best support you through pregnancy!

It is also important to know that not all core exercises are recommended during pregnancy. Some movements can do more harm than good.
➡️ Long holds like planks, or any exercise that requires a sit up or crunching motion, place a large amount of stress on the re**us abdominis.
➡️ As your stomach expands, these muscles naturally separate. High-pressure or high-strain exercises can overload the midline, stress the linea alba and increase the risk of hernia or delayed healing after birth.

A capable core prepares your body for labour by helping you manage pressure and work with your body rather than against it. It also supports smoother postpartum recovery when trained safely through each trimester.

If you are unsure what is safe or how to train your core properly, our team can guide you through a plan that protects your body and keeps you strong. Already have a pelvic floor physio? Amazing! We can work in conjunction with them to support you in the best way! 🫶🏻

What are some cases Dr. Brooke treated this week?

This week, Dr. Brooke has been helping patients move and feel their best, treating:

🤰🏼 Pregnancy-related lower back pain
🤕 Cervicogenic and tension-type headaches
🏋🏼‍♀️ Shoulder bursitis and impingement

As a holistic Chiropractor, Dr. Brooke focuses on restoring mobility, improving strength, and empowering patients to take an active role in their recovery.

Hip pain or tightness after squats? 👎🏼

It’s more common than you think — but it doesn’t have to be your normal.

In this video, Dr. Mo runs through some of the common things we look at to help your hips move and feel better. Sometimes that means adjusting your stance or foot position to better suit your hip anatomy, or adding a b***y band to build lateral hip stability.

If we find hip mobility restrictions, you’ll likely receive specific exercises to improve active range and strength — think hip CARs, end-range hip flexion, or 90/90 variations.

Every treatment and rehab plan we create is based on your individual assessment and findings — no cookie-cutter programs here.
These are just a few of our favourite strategies to help reduce hip-related pain and improve movement in and out of the gym.

RECOVER. REBUILD. PERFORM.

🧊 From RICE to PEACE & LOVE ❤️‍🩹

The way we treat injuries has evolved — and it’s about time!

Once upon a time, we were all told to follow RICE (Rest, Ice, Compression, Elevation) for soft tissue injuries.

But recent research has shown that this old approach might actually slow down the healing process and delay recovery.

Now, the focus has shifted to PEACE & LOVE — a more complete, evidence-based framework that promotes both tissue healing and long-term recovery.

Here’s what it stands for:

🕊 PEACE (for the acute phase)
P – Protect: Avoid activities that increase pain for the first few days.
E – Elevate: Keep the injured area raised to reduce swelling.
A – Avoid anti-inflammatories: Inflammation is part of healing — don’t suppress it too early!
C – Compress: Use elastic bandages or taping to reduce excessive swelling.
E – Educate: Empower yourself with knowledge and understand your body’s healing process.

💗 LOVE (for the subacute/chronic phase)
L – Load: Gradually reintroduce movement and load to stimulate healing and strength.
O – Optimism: Your mindset matters! A positive outlook helps recovery.
V – Vascularisation: Get that heart rate up with pain-free cardiovascular exercise.
E – Exercise: Restore mobility, strength, and proprioception through targeted rehab.

The shift from RICE to PEACE & LOVE reminds us that healing is active, not passive — and that recovery goes beyond just rest and ice.

✨ Move smart, stay positive, and give your body the best chance it deserves!

What I’d tell you if I wasn’t afraid to hurt your feelings 👀
(But let’s be honest, I already tell most of my patients this anyways).

1️⃣ You don’t need X-rays to be adjusted — and your joints aren’t “out.” That’s just good a sales tactic. (Yes there is a time and a place for imaging, but we don’t typically need it to investigate functional human movement patterns)

2️⃣ You don’t need more treatments. You need to move better between them (aka: do your prescribed exercises).

3️⃣ Stretching alone won’t change your body. Strength and active mobility will. 💪

4️⃣ I’m not your crutch — I’m your teammate. I’ll guide you, but you have to put in the work.

5️⃣ That 10-year chronic hip pain won’t be “fixed” in one session. It needs investigation, strategy, and consistency.

6️⃣ Cortisone isn’t always the answer. Sometimes it’s just a temporary band-aid.

7️⃣ If you’re not doing your exercises… you’re not going to improve. Simple as that.

8️⃣ Pain ≠ damage. It’s a warning signal, not always harm.

9️⃣ Adjustments are great — but they’re rarely the most important part of your care.

🔟 Progress over perfection. Sometimes I don’t give a sh*t how perfect the movement is — I just want you to move your body and teach your brain and musculoskeletal system that it’s possible!

Our goal with our patients -> RECOVER. REBUILD. PERFORM.

Honest care > quick fixes
