Sit, sleep and stand guides
Three short guides for the things you spend most of your life doing. How to set up a chair, what to do about a screen that sits too low, and which sleeping positions are kinder to a spine than others.
Resources to support your care
A few things worth having at home between visits. If you are after something more specific to your own situation, ring the practice and ask.
How to choose your perfect pillow
Wondering how to get your pillow just right? Whether you are shopping for a new one or working out how to adjust the one you already have, Harriet runs through her quick tips in this short video.
A few pillow recommendations
- ABCA Adjustable Pillow. Adjustable to suit your sleeping position and preferred level of support. [Have a look](https://www.abcaustralasia.org.au/product/adjustable-pillow-copy?ref=88)
- KillaPilla. Made with organic cotton and wool, designed by a chiropractor and adjustable to suit your individual needs.
- A humble rolled towel. Don't underestimate this one! A rolled towel tucked into your pillowcase can provide extra neck support. Definitely worth experimenting with before spending your pennies on a new pillow.
- Our biggest tip? There's no one-size-fits-all pillow. Your sleeping position, body shape and personal comfort all play a role. If you're unsure where to start, ask us at your next visit!
Straighten Up Australia stretches
A three minute set of stretches adapted from the Chiropractors Association of Australia. Short enough to attach to something you already do, like brushing your teeth. Twice a day is ideal, and they are also useful after a long stretch at a desk.
Stress reset techniques
Our go-to ways of giving an overloaded nervous system a reset. Breathwork, getting outside for a walk, and a handful of other quick things that help you calm your farm.
Looking for something else
These are the ones people ask for most, and they are deliberately general. If you want something specific to what your body is working through, that conversation is better had in person. Ring the practice on (08) 8272 5899 or mention it at your next visit.
Your care info covers what to do between visits in more detail, and the FAQ answers the questions we hear most.
