So you’ve been in for treatment, you’ve booked in your next appointment… what now?
We’ve compiled 5 tips to help you get the most from your Chiropractic adjustments. Read on to find out more!
1: Stay Hydrated
While it’s always important to stay hydrated, it’s particularly wise following a chiropractic adjustment. Drinking plenty of water can flush out toxins that may have been released into the body during your treatment (such as lactic acid), and help your body heal more quickly. If you don’t hydrate yourself the toxins could settle back in, potentially causing more aches and pains.
2. Keep Moving
Movement following a chiropractic appointment stimulates blood flow, which can help speed up the healing process that begins with your adjustment. Try gentle exercise; yoga, a walk, or a short swim. Avoid heavy workouts, vigorous exercises, or weight lifting. Your chiropractor can help you gauge how much is the right amount.
3. Get Adjusted Regularly
We recommend to maximise your experience that you attend your appointments regularly. Your treatment plan has been established by your Chiropractor to get you back to your regular activities as quickly as possible. Missing appointments hinders that process and may even end up prolonging your recovery.
4. Get Some Sleep
Sleep is essential to every process in the body. Although movement and exercise are essential to unlocking the full benefits of chiropractic adjustments, rest is equally as vital. Your body regains it's strength and promotes healing while you’re asleep.
5. Actually Do Your Rehab
It's important to invest time outside the clinic into your own healing. Your chiropractor may prescribe you a rehab plan and if you want to get back to your better self in the timeline discussed with your practitioner, we recommend you utilise your program!
