1. Exercise Regulary – Exercise doesn’t have to be strenuous. Something as simple as a daily walk can make a huge difference.
  2. Eat A Healthy Diet – Proper nutrients means your body has the building blocks to help repair itself
  3. Maintain Good Posture – Are you sitting up straight as you read this?
  4. Stretch Your Spine Before And After Sports – This will also help to loosen up the surrounding muscles
  5. Don’t Overload Your Backpack Or Purse – Remember to carry it over both shoulders to balance the load (if possible).
  6. Stretch Your Legs And Back After Each Hour Of Sitting – Whether in a car or at a desk, stretching regularly will help to keep you from tightening up or injuring yourself further.
  7. Never Cradle The Phone Between Your Neck And Shoulder – use the speaker function on your phone or get a head set if you need to do two things at one.
  8. Sleep On Your back Or Side, Not On Your Stomach – This helps to keep your spine in line and reduces the risk of hurting your neck while you sleep
  9. Invest In A Good Chair, Pillow And Mattress – When you think about the amount of time you use these things each day, it’s worth it.
  10. Book in a maintenance visit with your Osteo – It’s much easier to prevent a problem than to correct one. https://www.melbourneosteohealth.com/benefits-maintenance-treatments/
