Do you feel or
experience tightness, lethargy, discomfort, decreased
concentration or immune function, decreased mental acuity just
to name a few?
Start with your
work environment- does it support you or does it contribute to
your spinal problem? What about your bed? The furniture you
slouch in at the end of a long day? Could these be contributing
to your problems? Are you overweight? Excess weight places much
more load on the discs of the spine and makes them more
vulnerable to injury.
The overall message
is to take responsibility for your spine- you only get one! You
want to make sure it lasts as long as you do. Regular exercise,
periodic adjustments and soft tissue treatment, good nutrition,
and good work habits will together add years to your active
life.
And remember;
always make sure that your chiropractor is a member of the
Chiropractors’ Association of Australia (CAA), and your
Myotherapist is a member of the Institute of Registered
Myotherapists of Australia (IRMA).
Chiropractic enhances health and performance
Spinal misalignment
(subluxation) can interfere with the transmission of messages in
your nervous system – which is responsible for controlling and
co-ordinating your entire body, and even more importantly it may
result in decreased health, performance and wellbeing. |
