Back to hockey, running or rec league sports this fall? After a summer off, your body may need time to adjust to the demands again. Shoulders, quads, hamstrings, knees and ankles can feel the strain when you jump straight back into full intensity.

A few smart steps can help you return more gradually:

✅ Build up progressively. Start with manageable sessions and increase your activity and intensity over time.
✅ Warm up before you play, run or train.
✅ Pay attention to small aches or “niggles”: addressing concerns early may help prevent them from becoming bigger disruptions.
✅ Make room for rest days so your body can recover between sessions.

Thinking about getting back to sport, or dealing with an injury? Our team offers personalized sports injury rehabilitation and can help you explore a plan that fits your needs.

Raking leaves this weekend? A few small changes can help your back feel better after cleanup! 🍂

✅ Warm up for 10 minutes before you start.
✅ Switch sides every 10 strokes to avoid overworking one side.
✅ Use your legs to move and rake, rather than repeatedly bending and twisting through your back.
✅ When lifting leaf bags, keep them close to your body and bend your knees.

That familiar post-raking soreness often comes from repetitive twisting under load on one side. Pace yourself, take breaks, and let the rake do the work!

If back pain lingers after yard cleanup, our team is here to help. Learn more at arnpriorchiropractic.ca. @ashlynn_arnpriorchiro @chirostephlassaline @drpaulsly

30 years of care, community and helping people move better! 🎉

This September, Arnprior Chiropractic Health Centre proudly celebrates 30 years of serving Arnprior and the surrounding communities.

It all began when Dr. Paul Sly opened ACHC at Madawaska Plaza on September 16, 1996. In November 2001, we moved to our current home at 5 Charles Street: where we continue to care for local families, athletes and individuals every day.

From chiropractic care and physiotherapy to massage therapy, acupuncture, concussion management, shockwave therapy and more, we are grateful to have been part of so many health and recovery journeys over the past three decades.

Thank you to our patients, families, referral partners and the entire community for your trust and support. We could not have reached this milestone without you! ❤️

Here’s to 30 years: and to continuing to help our community move better, feel better and live better!

Is your child’s backpack ready for back-to-school? 🎒

A backpack that is too heavy or poorly positioned can contribute to discomfort and make it harder to move comfortably.

Try these simple tips:
✅ Use both shoulder straps
✅ Adjust the pack so it sits comfortably and close to the back
✅ Use the chest or waist strap, if available
✅ Pack heavier items closest to the back
✅ Remove items that aren’t needed to avoid overloading

There isn’t one rigid weight limit that suits every student. Focus on comfort, fit, and how your child moves while carrying the pack.

If your child has ongoing back, neck, or shoulder discomfort, it's always better to deal with it early.

Move better. Feel better. Live better.

Think concussion recovery means staying in a dark room until every symptom disappears? That’s a common myth.

While an initial period of relative rest may be appropriate, prolonged complete rest is not always the best approach. Recovery is usually gradual and individualized.

With guidance from a qualified healthcare professional, a return-to-recovery plan may include:

✅ Learning and school/work activities
✅ Gentle daily movement
✅ A gradual return to sport

The right pace depends on the person, their symptoms, and how they respond to activity. If symptoms worsen or concerns arise, pause and seek professional guidance.

Have questions about concussion recovery? Drs. Knapp, Sullivan and Lassaline are certified @completeconcussions certified providers.

Mid-Summer Maintenance: Why the McGill Big 3 shouldn't take a vacation! ☀️🏌️‍♂️

Are you spending your weekends on the golf course or in the garden? While we love seeing our everyone stay active, summer activities often come with a lot of bending, twisting, and reaching.

This is where "Mid-Summer Maintenance" comes in. We often see patients who take a break from their core routines once the sun comes out, only to find their back feeling the strain by early August.

The McGill Big 3: the Bird-Dog, Side Bridge, and Modified Curl-up: are essential for building the core endurance your spine needs to handle a full 18 holes or a long afternoon of weeding.

Why stick with them?
✅ Protect your spine during rotational movements.
✅ Build endurance for long days outside.
✅ Recover faster between activities.

Don’t wait for the ache to start before you focus on stability. Keep your foundation strong so you can move better, feel better, and live better all summer long!

Questions about your form or looking to optimize your performance? Reach out to the team or book an assessment at the clinic.
