Why should I have regular Chiropractic care?
Regular Chiropractic care offers several potential benefits for individuals seeking a holistic approach to their health.
Firstly, it can provide relief from chronic pain conditions such as back pain, neck pain and tension headaches, this is done by re-aligning the spine and therefore improving nerve function.
Additionally, Chiropractic adjustments can enhance joint mobility and flexibility, therefore reducing the risk of injuries in future, which will contribute to your overall physical performance.
Some studies have demonstrated that Chiropractic care can also contribute to a better immune system function, a properly aligned spine allows an efficient communication between the brain and the body’s immune system. Improved posture and reduced stress are also common outcomes of having regular Chiropractic care, which can lead to enhanced mental and emotional wellbeing.
If you are looking at a way to optimise your health and wellbeing then you should think about Chiropractic care.

Chest and shoulder stretches
This season it is a good idea to start focusing on maintaining flexibility and good posture, you can do this by stretching the Chest & Shoulders, this will help to alleviate tension that you can feel in the neck and can radiate to the back of the head and trap muscles, stretching will also contribute to a healthier spine. Try to incorporate some chest stretches into your routine, especially if you have a lifestyle where you spend a lot of time sitting for work, if you do these exercises for the next few weeks then you should start to see some improvements.

Upper Chest Massage to improve your posture:
Deep Tissue Massage can offer numerous benefits to the muscles of the chest which are affected with poor posture. If you target the deep layers of muscle tissue, this can help to relieve tension and ‘knots’ that can often accumulate in the chest area.
Releasing the chest area can improve flexibility and allow a greater range of motion in the shoulders and upper body, this is in turn can alleviate rounded shoulders and hunched posture, promoting better alignment.
Additionally releasing muscular tension in the chest can relieve pressure on the spine, therefore not only enhancing physical appearance but preventing the development of musculoskeletal issues and associated pain in years to come.
Having a regular Deep Tissue Massage can play a vital role in maintaining a balanced, upright posture which is important for your long-term health.
