THE IMPORTANCE OF SLEEP 😴

Sleeping-Benefits-TMC.jpg
Benefits Of Sleep


We all know that sleep is important. But do we know why? Sleep plays a vital role in both your physical and mental health. It aids the body’s ability to function through a variety processes:


1️⃣ Improved recovery and body repair. Decreased sleep increases the possibility of fatigue and low energy levels. This is explained by the link between sleep deprivation and decreased synthesis of glycogen and carbohydrates stores [used for energy]. It is also believed that a significant amount of growth hormone is produced when we sleep; primarily responsible for muscle growth, repair, bone building and fat burning. Studies have linked increased amounts of sleep with improved athletic performance such as sprint speed and free throw shooting ability in basketball.


2️⃣ Improved cardiovascular health. Decreased levels of sleep has been linked to increased levels of hypertension, increased stress hormone [cortisol] and an increased heartbeat. It’s believed that too little sleep causes disruptions to important biological processes of the body such as blood pressure, and glucose and inflammation regulation. Evidence strongly supports a link between sleep apnoea and compromised heart health.

3️⃣ Decreased weight. Decreased sleep has been linked to decreased activity in the hormones that control appetite. Furthermore, a lack of sleep has been linked to decreased processing of stored carbohydrates. A study conducted in the Public Library of Science Medicine found that individuals who had less than 6 hours of sleep were more likely to have a higher BMI.

4️⃣ Increased immune function. Lack of sleep has been linked to suppressed immune function. Evidence suggests that sleep deprivation decreases the production of infection fighting antibodies and inflammation promoting cytokines. A study published in the Journal of American Medical Association found that almost half the amount of antibodies were produced in sleep deprived individuals [in response to the flu vaccine].


5️⃣ Improved cognitive function. Sleep deprivation has strongly been linked to a decrease in cognitive function and changes in mood.

Tradies & How Chiropractic Care Helps?

TMC-Heavy_Lift.jpg
Consequences Of Heavy Lifting

Working With A Broken Back Is Not Part Of The Job!

Being a Tradesman is a tough gig making it ideal for the body to function at its best during strenuous work hours. It has been estimated that at least 1 in 4 people working in an intensive job suffer from the common neck or back pains.

Some Common Problems Tradesman Experience Include:

Causes Of Common Problems Tradesman Experience Include:

Because of the amount of stress put onto the body from either lifting or straining in certain positions on the job site as a Tradesman it is ideal to know about the triggers beforehand to help minimise these common issues from occurring to you!

Some Of These Issues Include: 

Why Chiropractic Care Is Ideal For Tradies!

Chiropractic Care allows the musculoskeletal system to move more freely and also increase its overall mobility and strength. If a Tradesman is currently suffering from symptoms of either neck or back pain it can be great in not only decreasing pain but also ensuring the body is capable of dealing with the ongoing stressors on the job site!

Some Of The Treatments Offered By Chiropractors Include:

3 Ways Tradies Can Try To Prevent Work Injuries!

Improve Posture

TMCPosture.jpg
Good Posture vs Incorrect Postures

Posture is a clear indicator that tells us exactly how much extra stress the body is under even without strenuous activity. Using our bodies in incorrect ways can cause ongoing issues and chronic conditions to arise long-term. It is common for postural issues to go unnoticed and for this very reason our joints begin to seize up decreasing our overall mobility this increasing areas of degeneration.

Good thing is it is never to late to fix your posture and it can be as simple as adding in chiropractic care into your regime to help decrease the tension throughout those stressed out areas of the body!

Correct Form Whilst technique!

TMC_Safe_Lifting.jpg
Safe Lifting Vs Incorrect Lifting

Poor lifting form is one of the easiest ways of ruining your back. It is important that the body moves together in a sequence so that the joints within the spine are able to stabilise themselves whilst going from a downlow position to upright. This makes it obvious that we want all of our joints to get behind the lifting including or muscles. To ensure this happens we should aim to lift as close as possible to the body whilst having both feet shoulder width apart lifting as much weight with our legs.

Stretching & Mobility Exercises

The work that most tradies undertake is usually strenuous and therefore stretching before and after work can help decrease the chances of injury.

Some of the most common stretches and mobility exercises include:

Teres Minor/Major Stretch (Lat Stretch)
Procedure: (2 variations)

  • (Standing/Seated Ver.1) Move the arm (side needed to be stretched) underneath your opposite armpit
  • Pull with your other hand from the elbow directly outwards
  • (Standing/Seated Ver.2) Move your arm over your head (scratch your back)
