Stress can come in many forms and will affect each of us differently. We are most familiar with emotional stress such as worrying about finances or an argument with a colleague. However physical stress (such as sitting too much or being overweight) and chemical stress (such as poor daily water intake) can also affect how our spine functions.

 

Stress could be affecting your spinal health in the following ways:

• tension in the neck and/or shoulders
• slouched and rounded posture
• poor sleep quality
• fatigue and exhaustion
• high muscle tension

If you are concerned with any of the above issues, a thorough Chiropractic assessment may help to identify the causes and more importantly, how to manage these negative impacts that stress has on our overall health and wellbeing. Our thorough assessment procedures aim to identify whether Chiropractic care is appropriate for you. We utilise on-site digital x-rays (if clinically appropriate) and digital postural assessments, allowing us to immediately look deeper and understand your problem. The information we gather on our initial assessment allows us to choose the most effective technique, tailor this to your needs, ensuring we are being incredibly safe all while delivering exceptional results.
