Dear Valued Clients, we have lots of information to share with you this month.
1. Our June and July calendars for scheduling appointments
2. Australian Chiropractic Associations Spinal Health Month JUNE
National Spinal Health Month: A Healthy Spine Supports A Healthy Mind
June is National Spinal Health Month, an initiative of the Australian Chiropractors Association (ACA) to encourage Australians to join the “spinal health movement” to prevent back pain disorders that remain one of the leading causes of disability in Australia while increasing mental health complications for sufferers.
According to the Australian Institute of Health and Welfare (AIHW) and the World Health Organisation (WHO), musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) including back pain, account for the greatest proportion of persistent pain conditions which is often linked to depression and psychological distress.
Maintaining spinal health is essential to staying active, independent and feeling good at any age, so by tackling Australia’s very common back pain issue, we can improve the physical and mental health of society and aid in addressing stagnant productivity while reducing costs to the Australian economy.
According to Global Health Education Australia, over 300,000 Australians visit a chiropractor each week, with demand for chiropractic healthcare increasing as more Australians seek holistic, non-invasive, drug-free healthcare to manage MSDs and minimise chronic back pain and its associated secondary implications.
During National Spinal Health Month, Elevate Chiropractic & Wellness is encouraging our community to join the “spinal health movement” to get back to feeling good by maintaining a healthy spine to support a healthy mind.
If you would like any further information or factsheets to help you understand back pain, please don't hesitate to drop us a line.
