Cold temperatures, wet weather, changes in air pressure and decreased activity may leave your muscles and joints feeling stiff and achey during the winter months. Here are some tips to try and help you withstand the season!
In the winter months we spend more time sitting in front of computers or curled up on the couch and less time striding out. As a result our posture deteriorates. Poor posture is the number one cause of musculoskeletal pain.
If you sit, stand and move in correct alignment you reduce the strain across all of your joints and muscles – as a result they function better, last longer and generally don’t hurt!
So make a special effort to sit & stand tall in winter. If you need help with this – we are the people to see! Posture education and correction is an important part of all of our treatments.
We also offer a Posture Correction package. This consists of an initial 40 minute assessment including postural analysis using the latest software, a muscle balance assessment and a corrective exercise programme designed especially for you. This is followed up by two 20 minute appointments in order to assess your progress. All this for only $150. Perfect for any age including children.
Our current opening hours are:
Monday, Wednesday, Friday: 8am – 6pm
Tuesday & Thursdays: 8am to 7pm
Saturdays: 9am to 1pm
