PAIN IN THE NECK?

Complaints of headaches and neck pain have increased drastically during the lockdown. Tension headaches or Cervicogenic Headaches affect 60-80 % of the population and are the most common type of headache.

Characterised by neck and shoulder tension, base of the skull pain that refers around and over to the sides of your head and forehead. During these times, they are primarily attributed to increased working hours at home and poor ergonomics within a home work setting.

The best part, is that pain relief can be achieved rather quickly with chiropractic care including deep tissue massage, dry needling and spinal joint mobilisation. Go see your chiropractor for a proper assessment and to get the pain relief you need.

The more you know...

Chiropractic care is so much more than an adjustment for pain. Your chiropractor may make use of additional interventions specific to your condition. These may include heat/ ice, ultrasound, dry needling, and many more.

WHAT IS THAT POPPING SOUND?

Very often people will ask us what exactly produces that popping sound when your spine gets adjusted. . One thing we can assure you is that it is not bones going back into place or the breaking of any tissues within your spine. The sound you hear is merely the displacement of air within an enclosed space. In this case, the synovial fluid that keeps your joints lubricated.

In medical terms, that crack or pop you hear is called a cavitation and is very natural. With that kept in mind, almost any joint could make that 'pop' sound. In addition, it doesn't mean that if it makes that pop during your adjustment, that it was a problem to begin with.

Thanks to the people over at Spine Health, they made this simple infographic to explain where that sounds comes from. The more you know the less you fear!

With plenty people working from home during the lockdown, it becomes crucial to have your work setup be as kind on your body as possible. We have had an influx of people in the practice with upper back pain,neck tension and headaches that stem from working from home.

Things to consider in addition to an ergonomically friendly work setup are:

1) Stand up and move at least every 45-60 minutes. Have a stretch, grab something to drink or just walk around for 5 minutes. This gives your body enough relief time from a sitting posture and to prevent slouching as you get weary from sitting for too long.

2) Keep your work hours the same as you would at the office. Stick to your routine! If you had a tea break at 10.30am then take your tea break. This applies to your lunch break as well. When work finished at 4.30pm then finish working then and have your own time. Too many people are working increased hours during the lockdown at the expense of their own health

3) Attempt a 50/50 sitting to standing ratio. Try 1 hour sitting , then raise the screen by placing on books or a shelf and stand and work for another hour. Alternating between the 2 will be greatly appreciated by your spine.

Have a look at the tips provided in the below picture for the ideal work setup. For anything related to your body that you may be feeling, give us a call 😉 Feel free to share with anyone you know that may need this advice.
