Straighten Up Ireland - 10th - 14th October 2011

STRAIGHTEN UP IRELAND:


SUI is a posture care programme that sets out to improve the nation’s posture, thus aiming to help prevent back pain & subsequently improve your overall health & well being by promoting balance, strength and flexibility within the spine.

The Chiropractic Association of Ireland is delighted to incorporate this fantastic programme and to be utilising it here in Ireland.

The message at the heart of this campaign is the importance of having good posture and its’ related health benefits, as well as educating the public on the potential short and long term implications of poor posture.

Approximately 80% of the population of Ireland will experience at least one episode of back pain in their life time. That means that a large number of people are suffering with back pain right now. Poor posture is one of the common causes of back pain. As a result, millions of Euro’s are wasted in Ireland every year due to a decreased ability to work efficiently and often subsequent absenteeism.

The CAI wants to encourage everyone who is old enough & able to start using this simple, three minute, daily exercise routine that is designed to improve posture and increase spinal strength & flexibility. This routine is most effective when it is incorporated daily.

Straighten up Ireland will be running from the 10-16th October 2011. During this week we are offering FREE Spinal Assessment at our clinic. This will give you an opportunity to talk to one of our CAI chiropractors to discuss any health issues concerning you back. You will also be given a free SUI exercises leaflet to help get you started!

Call the Clinic today to book your appointment. This opportunity is open to everyone, so please tell your friends and family all about it. Children are welcome to attend too.
