The Dark Side Of Mind-Body Connection And How Chiropractors Combat Emotional Distress

The start of 2020, or 20plenty, is upon us! A new year means a new start for most people. But, not for everyone. New Year’s resolutions fall through, holidays fizzle out fast, loved ones leave, and the pressures of work can leave you with plenty of not-so-good-feelings.

You may be losing your temper at home, waking up sad, and dreading work or even getting out of bed!

If that’s the case, a bad back is the last thing you need. And, you’re probably feeling the signs already! Tight shoulders, sore neck, headaches, pain shooting down into your leg – this is an indication that the stresses of day-to-day life are taking a toll on your body too.

How does Testosterone level affects men and how to know if it’s low.

What do you know about Testosterone? Or even more so, how do you feel about it?
Women have been on oestrogen replacement for some 50 years now. Strange how it does not occur to men, even when they lose their sex drive, get continuously tired, or deeply depressed, or even when it’s obvious their wounds are healing slowly, that maybe something is missing – something that used to be there but is no longer…

What Comes First? Health or Fitness? (Actually, it’s a balance)

Getting on top of your health can be somewhat overwhelming. We may have lived our whole young adult lives not having to care too much about our health or we may have hit that “ripe old age” where our bodies seem to be continually failing us. Where do we start? Good question!

Maintaining a balanced lifestyle requires us to look at our diet, exercise and our mental health. Health is defined as “the condition of the body and the degree to which it is free from illness, or the state of being well” and Fitness is defined as “the condition of being physically strong and healthy” (Cambridge Dictionary). The key is to find out how we define these two concepts ourselves and relate it to our own bodies.

Are you someone who has understood the importance of health and fitness from a young age?

How are you wired? (Understanding the nervous system)

Have you experienced persistent headaches? A loss of feeling or pins & needles? Maybe double vision or dizziness? Your body may be screaming out for an adjustment to assist the nervous system. Our team at Empowering Wellness understands the importance of the relationship between the spine and the nervous system.

The nervous system is a complex communication network between our brain and the rest of our body. It has two main components a) the Central Nervous System (CNS) – controlling the brain and the spinal cord; b) the Peripheral Nervous System – controlling the rest of the nerves, collectively.

The brain sends messages down through the spinal cord which then transmits those messages to the billions of neurons in the body. The body then reacts appropriately.

The nervous system controls our movement, organ functions and also our sensory nervous system (sight, hearing, touch, smell and taste).

HEALTH TALK by Ron Bass: Bio-Energetic Solutions for Stress, Pain, Fatigue & Sensitivities


Our amazing Naturopath, Counsellor, Life Coach and Remedial Therapist, Ron Bass will hold another enlightening Health Talk at Empowering Wellness Burleigh Heads.

This time he will be teaching us about Bio-Energetic Solutions for Stress, Pain, Fatigue & Sensitivities.

What is Bio-Energetics?
Unknown to most people, the very reason that we’re alive is because of bio-energetics. This amazing process happens within the mitochondria, deep inside most of our cells. The mitochondria often called the ‘energy-factory’ or the ‘powerhouse’ of the cells. The energy currency that it makes is in the form of  adenosine triphosphate (ATP). This energy-rich ATP molecule is produced using oxygen from our breath to convert chemical energy from our food. It’s this ATP form of useable energy that sustains our life.

5 Pillars of Health and Wellness


When we think of our health, in general, we often assume that we are doing everything “right” when it comes to looking after our bodies especially when we aren’t showing any signs of being sick. We reward ourselves because we have escaped the flu through the flu season, we have not visited the doctor throughout winter, we’ve exercised, and we’ve eaten a balanced diet. That’s it right? Job done!! Not at all. There is so much more required to ensure our bodies and minds are healthy. We need to look at our whole selves. Not just our physical self.

We are much better, now, at incorporating alternative health therapies into our lifestyle. Mind/Body Medicine is becoming more familiar to people who have a level of consciousness around looking after themselves. We have started considering other aspects of lives as important to our wellbeing. Below is a snapshot and a few suggestions how we can incorporate connection, lifestyle, diet, fitness and mindfulness to achieve overall wellness.

Stand Up For Your Health – Your Body Will Love You For It!


Have you ever been told that you need to stand up for yourself?  Well this is very true in more ways than one!  You need to stand up for your health!  We are built to be upright and our bodies and cardiovascular system work much more efficiently that way.

Approximately 60 per cent of Australian adults do less than the recommended 30 minutes of moderate intensity physical activity each day, so the less sitting or lying down you do during the day, the better your chances are for living a healthy life.

During our work days, or lengthy study sessions, we end up sitting for prolonged periods of time at our desks without actually realising the harm we are causing to our bodies – both mentally and physically.  Problems include back and neck pain, headaches, eye strain and a heightened stress response.
