Trusted chiropractic information

We’re so excited to launch Your Body Works’ new blog providing trusted chiropractic information for parents.

We know parents are seeking qualified, easy-to-understand information to support their children from pregnancy through childhood and beyond. There are many conditions that may present themselves throughout childhood which are not easily understood.

Your Body Works’ qualified and experienced chiropractors will write blog posts to educate parents on a range of conditions and general wellness advice to provide physical, nutritional and emotional care for children from pregnancy through to adolescence. Our beautiful babies don’t come with a manual so we’re sure you will find these few regular hints and tips handy along the way.

Choose a topic via the Categories headings to the right. For blog post notifications like us on Facebook and you’ll see them feature in your news feed; otherwise keep coming back to this page for more.

We’re always interested to hear what areas are of interest to you. Please contact us if you have any questions or would like us to cover a specific topic, and we’ll have our qualified chiropractors develop a blog post for you.

If you find our posts interesting and educational, please share with family and friends via links at the bottom of the page.

Your Body Works’ blog posts are not meant to replace a visit with your local health professional, especially in the presence of alarming symptoms. If you have any concern that your child might require urgent care, please see your health professional urgently or phone Your Body Works on 07 3857 0511.

Dance Mode

If, like me, the kids in your life are Bluey fans, you’ve probably seen the "Dance Mode" episode. Inspired by this, and the fact that my 8-month-old Josie has started bopping along to music, I’ve decided that this Feel Good February, we’ll have a dance party each night as part of our bedtime routine. I did some research about the benefits of dancing as a family and found some great reasons to give it a try. Mostly, I’m just hoping it might make bedtime for my 2.5-year-old, Owen, a little smoother (cross your fingers for me)!

Move your spine

Your spine is made up of 33 vertebrae. In between these vertebrae are intervertebral discs (IVD) that allow our spine to bend and rotate. Without them our spine would be like a broomstick. They also act like shock absorbers when we are walking, running, and jumping.

FUNdamental MOVE-MEnt - The building blocks for brain development through play

We are all neurologically hardwired to learn through movement, play and interaction in our environment from the moment we’re born. From the initial breast crawl as a baby, through all our early milestones of rolling, crawling, walking and beyond, each skill set is achieved and built on from the one before and it is through these experiences that a baby builds their world.
