Whether it’s the steep walk from the train or long days on your feet, it doesn’t take much for the body to start feeling a step behind.
Chiropractic in Petersham
We see many locals from Petersham and the same themes arise:
- “My lower back gets tight from walking up and down the hill”
- “I can’t sit for long without something flaring up”
- “I’ve had this stiffness for years — it just builds over time”
- “My neck and shoulders tense up midweek”
- “I feel like I’m always managing the same annoying ache”
Most wait until something tips them over the edge — but the signs have usually been building:
- Ongoing tightness in the neck, shoulders, or lower back
- Sciatic pain that runs down the leg
- Headaches starting in the upper neck
- A heavy, sluggish feeling in your body
- Posture that feels ‘off’ but is hard to correct
Chiropractic care isn’t about quick cracks or miracle fixes. It’s about understanding what your body’s been through — and helping it move better, with less strain.
