“Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder is not an incurable, hopeless mental disorder. PTSD has been shown to have physical roots. I hope you will join us in the years to come as we seek to eliminate PTSD from the trauma equation.”
Dr. John E. Upledger
In 1999, Dr Upledger and a team of craniosacral therapists led 22 Vietnam veterans in a groundbreaking study using a protocol co-designed with the West Palm Beach Veterans Administration Medical Centre. A post-program report by an independent licensed psychologist confirmed that the veterans experienced fewer symptoms by the conclusion of the program, most notably related to obsessive/compulsive behaviours, depression, lack of motivation, feelings of alienation, and total number and severity of general symptoms. More than a 95% correlation was noted between the improvements and the craniosacral therapy sessions the veterans received.
Here are some excerpts from the study:

Downtown chiropractors are offering comprehensive solutions for tech neck, a condition prevalent among office workers due to prolonged device use, by realigning the cervical spine and educating on posture correction, ergonomics and preventive exercises. They also ensure mental well-being without compromising productivity.
Professionals can improve posture and reduce tech neck with three exercises: neck rolls and chin tucks, the superhero stance, and regular five-minute breaks for upper body and hip mobility exercises.
"Tech neck" syndrome, a condition affecting millions who spend long hours looking at digital devices, causes chronic pain and reduced mobility due to weakened neck and back muscles. Targeted exercises, coupled with professional treatments can effectively counter this syndrome. Early detection signs include persistent neck soreness, migraine headaches, and a forward-tilting head position. While maintaining proper posture and limited screen time may provide temporary relief, they fail in long-term because they don't address the underlying muscle weakness. Chiropractic adjustments and therapeutic exercises are recommended for managing this modern ailment.
