Hi There!

We are Drs Regan and Megan Osborne - qualified Chiropractors. A husband and wife team at Byron Bay Chiropractic Centre.

Our favourite things are making coffee, swimming at the beach and adjusting people. As Chiropractors, our greatest joy is working with people to achieve their health goals.

Both of us have enjoyed Chiropractic care for many years, and are continually inspired by the power of the nervous system and the body. It was Hippocrates who said “the greatest of human blessings is health” and we couldn’t agree more. We consider your health to be your greatest asset.

Have a little scroll around, to find out a bit more about what we do.

We look forward to seeing you in the clinic!

Regan & Megan

where we share our life by the sea

🌊 S E A C H A N G E 🌊 It’s really no surprise that going to the beach might just be good for our health. 🌊 Sea water for medicinal purposes actually has a name: thalassotherapy. 🌊 Ocean water naturally has a high mineral content of sodium, chloride, sulphate, magnesium and calcium. 🌊 There have been studies that suggest sea water may help with skin conditions, sinus congestion and relaxation. 🌊 Altered breathing patterns used in swimming may stimulate the parasympathetic nervous system, and calm the brain. 🌊 In the 1700’s it was popular for doctors to prescribe going for a dip in the ocean for various ailments, including scurvy and leprosy. 🌊 Even swimming in cooler water can have benefits such as the release of dopamine and serotonin. 🌊 We are definitely loving our daily dips in @byron.bay.nsw 🌊 Links to multiple research articles used + more about swimming in the sea: theconversation.com/health-check-why-swimming-in-the-sea-is-good-for-you-68583

Say G’day to one of the power house muscles of our posture- the Quadratus Lumborum (or QL for short). Swipe Right to see a pic! ➡️ 💪🏼 There are 2 QLs on either side of the body, and it is the deepest abdominal muscle. It connects the spine and the pelvis, which makes it a very important player in keeping us upright and supporting the body. 💪🏼 The QLs can get particularly tight and tender when: - one sided dominant activity (think skateboarding) - prolonged sitting - twisting and heavy lifting - repetitive motions -other muscles are weak/inhibited and the QL is overcompensating to stabilize. 💪🏼 The QL can also refer pain into the buttocks, hips, back and legs. 💪🏼 Stretching the QL may help support posture of the lower back and pelvis. 💪🏼 It’s important for any stretch to have proper technique so that the muscles are being effectively positioned and the rest of the body is not at risk of injury. 💪🏼 Sources: posturedirect.com/Quadratus-lumborum & physioprescription.com/musclestrengtheningbeatlowbackpain

🍁 A U T U M N 🍁 We love the beautiful season that brings a change in colour, and shorter days. 🍃 The perfect time to snuggle up at night with a hot cacao, and keep warm with scarves in the chilly mornings. 🍂 Breathe in the fresh air. 🍁 Regan and I enjoy cooking comforting soups and stews in the slow cooker. 🌻 Seasonal produce in Australia for Autumn includes: Brussels Sprouts Leek Silverbeet Turnip Sweet Potato Cauliflower Apples 🍏 Pears 🍐 Figs Kiwi fruit Lemons 🍋 🌾 Autumn is the perfect season to focus on mindfulness, deep- belly breathing, and walking outdoors.
💛 H O P E 💛 Rob Bell said it perfectly - Whether it’s hope for better health or a better lifestyle. Break the cycle, do something out of the ordinary, hope without action changes nothing.
We stand with all women. 🌸 #internationalwomensday2019
✨ A V O C A D O ✨ Let’s Avo chat about this wonder fruit 🥑 Avocados have more potassium that bananas! Why is this important? Potassium is a key nutrient that helps your brain and body send electrical signals. It can also help to support blood pressure levels. 🥑 About 77% of the calories from Avo are fat- one of the highest concentrations of any plant food! The TYPE of fat is really important to note though (not all fats are created equal) oleic acid is the star ⭐️ which can help to reduce inflammation. This fat can also help your digestive system to absorb other nutrients you are consuming. 🥑 are high in carotenoids such as lutein and zeaxanthin which are so important for eye 👁 health. Their natural packaging makes them eco friendly 🙌🏻 They are a tasty and great snack for people of all ages 👶🏼👩🏻🧔🏽👵🏿👴🏻 📷 @nutritionstripped Sources: @healthline healthline.com/nutrition/12-proven-benefits-of-avocado @mindbodygreen mindbodygreen.com/fun-facts-about-avocados
