The Art of Learning: An Inner Journey to Optimal Performance

Josh Waitzkin’s book has great appeal. As a former athlete who has a tendency to over think a majority of issues, I was drawn to the blend of cognitive process and Eastern philosophy.

An integration of the ordered and the abstract. An eclectic mix of ideas no doubt.

The book is an interesting journey of reflection, loss and dealing with conflict. Progression as an individual and patterning processes to achieve improved outcomes and optimal performance.

Stay Safe. Stay Well. With Chiro.

The way COVID-19 has impacted our community has been far and wide; it has affected us all in many different ways. As Melbourne returns to something that resembles ‘normality’; many of us are heading back into the office. You may be incredibly excited or terribly upset; but here are 5 simple tips and tricks to ensure your spine stays happy and healthy throughout the transition. 

Sometimes You need back surgery. Some times You don’t.

With up to 88% of spinal surgery being unnecessary or ineffectual maybe you want to avoid going under the knife.

Perhaps you don’t need surgery. Perhaps you need a second opinion with some realistic options to get better without drugs or surgery.

Many people (around 200,000) undergo lumbar spine surgery each years. Of those, an astonishing 20-40% will not become pain free as promised – and a full 10% will be worse off following the surgery!

To understand what is meant by “disc injury” it is necessary to understand the function and make up of the disc itself.

During our lives, many of us will have neck pain, and most of us won’t know exactly what caused it. In fact, neck pain can start from a whole range of causes.

Maybe you slept funny and woke up with a crick that won’t go away. You might’ve been rear-ended in your car and now you have whiplash.

Back pain is a very common complaint. About three in four adults will experience back pain during their lifetime-and that number may very well rise, given our aging population and recent trend of obesity.

Low back pain (pain in your lumbar spine) is the most common. Most back pain comes from sprains and strains caused by stressful movements: lifting something without using proper techniques or a sudden twisting motion are just two examples of how you can hurt your back.
