Back pain is a common occurrence in pregnancy. Fortunately, it can be manageable with chiropractic treatments to ensure you have a smooth and less debilitating pregnancy. 
During pregnancy, the body expands dramatically to accommodate the growing foetus. As the body grows, the ligaments around the pelvis relax to allow the pelvic bones to spread out. The expansion can end up being asymmetrical, meaning your lower back or sacrum can be tilted or rotated a certain way rather than being neutral.
 
This asymmetry can irritate and stress the surrounding structures such as the psoas muscles, sciatic nerve, sacrotuberous ligament and the broad ligament. 
 
Chiropractic management can help relieve the stress on these regions by restoring the proper alignment in the pelvic region. Secondly, our chiropractors will also guide you through corrective exercises to maintain the flexibility you require during your pregnancy,

Does back pain and golf come in a package? Golf back pain is a common occurrence and it not only hampers the scorecard, it can also take players away from the golf course. However, it is an issue that is certainly manageable and preventable with proper chiropractic management.
Picture
Golf is a game of fine motor skill requiring seamless coordinations from the tiniest of joints to the major core muscles of our body. Swinging a club at 100km/h repetitively is a unilateral movement that heavily favours once side of the body, which leads to imbalance in our body. 
 
​
The prolonged stress and exertion from the golf swing coupled with the imbalance in our body not only can wreak havoc on our spine, but also the surrounding joints such as shoulders, hips, knees and elbows. This will inevitably lead to chronic wear and tear and injuries to accumulate. 
 
Some issues we see frequently in our golfing patients are back pain, neck pain, headache, shoulder pain and golfer’s elbow. With proper chiropractic management, we can help the body to restore correct alignment and balance. An added bonus we often see is an improved scorecard in our golfing patients. 
 
The biggest names in golf such as Tiger Woods, Jordan Spieth and Brookes Koepka have all added chiropractic into their golfing regime. Shouldn’t you also do the same? 
 
To find out how we can help you overcome your golf injuries, book in an appointment with us today for help. Our chiropractors at Spearwood Chiropractic will assess you holistically and we utilise a unique combination of chiropractic and soft tissue therapy to deliver fast, effective and long lasting results for joints and muscular issues for all ages.

Our modern lifestyle has taken a toll on the quality of our sleep. Sleep issue is a pandemic that should be taken seriously. Here are some simple tips that you can implement to help improve the quality of your sleep. 
 
  1. Minimize exposure to bright light 2-3 hours before your sleep. Bright light from light bulbs or electronic devices can alter the production of melatonin, a sleep hormone that promotes restful sleeping. 
  2. Avoid eating 3 hours before your sleep. Late dinner or supper prolongs the digestion process in our body thus preventing optimum sleep.
  3.  Sleeps at regular time. Our body prefers to run on consistent habit. Sleeping at a set time daily helps our body to regulate predictable and routine function. 
  4. Avoid alcohol or caffeine late in the day. Alcohol and caffeine can severely disrupt our sleep process, causing restlessness.
  5. Keep your room to a cool temperature. Our body sleeps best at a cooler temperature of around 18-20 degree celcius. 
 
Our sleep is an important restive state that is often taken for granted. Have a go with these 5 simple tips for better sleeps!
