Body and mind

The brain and body are connected through neural pathways made up of neurotransmitters, hormones and chemicals. These pathways transmit signals between the body and the brain to control our everyday functions, from breathing, digestion, pain sensations, movement, thinking and feeling.

  • The benefits of practicing good posture include:

    * Increased energy
    * Better concentration and mood
    * Increased confidence
    * Promotes positive emotions/thoughts instead of bad ones
    * Better productivity and persistence

    In order for us to have good posture, it is extremely important that our spine moves and functions correctly. In today's sedentary lifestyle, we spend most of our time in front of the computer or traveling in the car. Then we often fall into bad posture.

    One side of our body is always more dominant. For example, right- or left-handedness. This creates an imbalance in the body that affects posture. A normal spine should look S-shaped from the side. This shape allows the joints of the spine to align properly so they can move efficiently. The S-shape acts as a spring, like a shock absorber, when we move and carry things.

    The position of the spine affects the whole body. If the spine is in the wrong position, causing a twist in the pelvis or an enlarged lower back, it affects the whole body and posture.

    New research information is constantly being obtained about the effect of posture on body and mental health.

  • If you're looking for better performance, regular chiropractor visits are a great idea. We focus on achieving a better functioning body by working on the spine regularly.

    The treatment restores proper mobility and helps the bones of the spine to align correctly. Improved mobility and function allow your muscles and nervous system to function better. This helps improve your body's ability to function and is one of the main reasons why athletes regularly see a chiropractor.

    Our muscles are connected to the bones. If the bone is in the wrong position and does not move correctly, then the muscle does not get the right rotation. So if you want your body to function at its best it is vital that your bones move correctly and are in the best possible position.

  • Our health is our greatest asset. If we lose our health it will affect every action and relationship in our lives. This is why we are so passionate at Seeley Chiropractic to promote a healthy lifestyle focusing on natural solutions that encourage the body to live how it’s designed.

    Our body is a self-regulating and self-healing system. If you cut yourself and your body is functioning correctly you don’t need to do anything. Your body knows what to do. If it’s not healing how we expect then it is very important to address the cause of this. Not just try to medicate it away.

    Chiropractic care is always trying to improve how the body naturally responds to the problem.

    At Seeley Chiropractic we are focusing on improving the function and supporting the natural healing mechanisms of the body,
