Let’s face it—many of us spend far too much of our day sitting. Whether you’re at the desk, behind a wheel, or stuck in back-to-back meetings, this sedentary lifestyle is taking a toll on your body. Prolonged sitting can lead to tight hips, rounded shoulders, a weakened core, and nagging lower back pain. At Neurohealth Wellness, we believe movement is medicine. That’s why we’ve put together five essential exercises every office worker should be doing daily to counteract the strain of desk work. These simple yet powerful movements help reset your posture, relieve tension, and support a more resilient, mobile body — no fancy equipment required.

What if a simple adjustment to your spine could measurably improve your athletic performance? At Neurohealth Wellness, we often say that movement is medicine—and now, emerging research is backing that up in fascinating ways. A recent pilot study found that basketball players improved their free-throw accuracy by 13.2% after a single chiropractic adjustment to the lower neck (C5/C6). While the spine might not be the first thing you think of when it comes to hand-eye coordination, this study highlights what we’ve known for years: when your nervous system is firing clearly and efficiently, your body performs better. Let’s explore how spinal alignment influences accuracy, control, and performance—and why athletes of all levels should pay attention.

In a world where stretching is often misunderstood as a painful, time-consuming chore, new research is flipping the script. Dr. Andrew Huberman, a Stanford neuroscientist, has uncovered a simple truth: lifelong flexibility isn't about how hard you push — it's about how consistently you show up. At Neurohealth Wellness on Sydney’s Northern Beaches, we value science-backed, sustainable practices that empower your body to move better, feel freer, and stay pain-free. In this blog, we dive into Dr. Huberman’s revolutionary stretching protocols and explain how gentle, consistent stretching — not intensity — can help you restore mobility, reduce stiffness, and support long-term health.

Your feet are the foundation of your body, supporting you through every step of your day.

But the good news is, it’s never too late to rebuild your feet and restore their strength naturally. In this post, we’ll explore how to strengthen your feet, improve your balance, and prevent injury using simple, effective techniques like Sole Exploration.

Back pain is one of the most common and debilitating conditions affecting people across Manly Vale, Brookvale, Frenchs Forest, and the wider Northern Beaches.

Are tight hips holding you back? Whether you’re sitting at a desk all day, training hard at the gym, or simply feeling stiff and sore, tight hip flexors are a common but often overlooked cause of discomfort — especially lower back pain and poor posture. At Neurohealth Wellness on Sydney’s Northern Beaches, our chiropractors frequently see patients struggling with hip tightness, and the good news is: it’s highly treatable.

As the crisp air of autumn begins to settle over Sydney’s Northern Beaches, many of us feel the shift not just in the weather, but in our bodies too. The changing season can bring increased stiffness, lowered energy, lingering stress, and a greater vulnerability to colds and flus. At Neurohealth Wellness, we believe autumn is more than just a time to rug up — it’s the perfect opportunity to realign, restore balance, and support your health naturally. One of the most effective ways to do that is through acupuncture, a time-honoured therapy designed to ease pain, strengthen your immune system, calm the mind and help your body adapt smoothly to the season’s demands.
