Mt Hawthorn Chiropractic

Dr Scott was lucky enough to get to see the latest Cirque du Soleil show Luzia on the weekend.

Here is also a flashback to the last Cirque du Soleil show Dr Scott had seen which was Totem at which was fortunate to be invited backstage to adjust many of the performers before and after many of the performances.

It goes without saying that these athletes/“circus folk” are elite with their training, perform and recovery!!

Every action of a GONSTEAD chiropractor has a clearly defined purpose, whether that be when taking care of an adult or a baby.

Every action of a GONSTEAD chiropractor can be measured and re-assessed, whether that be motion palpation, reflexes (both primitive reflexes & DTRs), developmental movement patterns etc.

Nothing is random, nothing is left to chance….

Just ask this little dude who needed a check up after having a wee fall out of his pram….

Time for a re-vamp….
Out with old sign and in with the new & sexy version.

Thoughts?? (Remember, Dr Scott is very sensitive about his design skills!! 🥸🤣)

TORTICOLLIS or the old fashioned “wry neck” is the acute spasm of the sternoceiodo-mastoid muscle resulting in the neck being pulled off to one side.

In kids it creates all sorts of dramas with many things, not just the neck!! Issues with developmental milestones, feeding and sleeping are common (and it can even cause an asymmetrical skull shape)!!

TORTICOLLIS is an all to super common reason that kids present to see Dr Scott.

Crawling is the single most important physical development an infant experiences in the first 12 months, yet it is sadly over-looked and under valued in so many cases!!

Now, before you comment on the status, form and/or general shape & structure of my feet, remember this….

My feelings are not hurt cos the foot massage was AWESOME (and no, it was not a one time event!!!!!)

I can genuinely say I look forward to seeing your faces (although I would prefer your spines) next week. My feet are relaxed and my dad jokes repertoire has been replenished….🤪🤣😜😂

Rolling - the next in the line of major developmental movement patterns which are integral for optimal neurodevelopment.
And who knew - neurodevelopment is a whole body process?!?!

Not sure what I mean….swipe across to see what other process is intricately linked to rolling….

Tummy time…
what is the full story??
Is it just head & neck control??
What ate the consequences of tummy time difficulties??

There are many confusing opinions about child development & developmental milestones which seem to serve to only create a huge amount of stress for parents.
Here are 3 things every parent should know about their child development…

The MHCC sweat shop is in action!!
Innovative ideas have been called upon to maintain a constant supply of fresh gowns for our ladies since our clothes dryer packed it in late last week.
This idea was initially inspired by our super mega heaps awesome CA Kellie
Never fear, our other super mega heaps awesome CA Tami is busy carrying the new dryer up the stairs!! 🤣😂🤪💪
But don’t worry, Dr Scott is making sure she does the lifting with correct technique and posture!!

So it’s happening - Mt Hawthorn Chiropractic’s first ever digital Easter Egg Hunt & giveaway!!
Are you “egg-cited”?? 🤣🤪

Swipe across, like this post, follows the accounts and watch out for the Easter Bunny and his eggs!!

There are many so questions to answer from this photo…

1. Why does Dr Scott look like he has just come from the beach??
Dr Scott was actually on his way to the beach on his day off but he swung by the office to help a new mum & bub (jeez he must be super nice!! 😇)

2. Who is the little dude “helping” Dr Scott??
The little dude is Hamish, Dr Scott’s now 3 yr old son and future associate…got to get their training started early!!

3. Who is the super little dude Dr Scott is checking??
Another Chiropractor’s newborn son.
Dr Scott must be pretty good at what he does if other chiropractors are bringing their kids to see him!!

4. Why would Dr Scott be checking someone clearly so small and new to the world??
It was an awesome but super fast birth and kiddo was really struggling with feeding & attaching on one side. Something super common and massively satisfying to help a new mum with as we all know motherhood has enough challenges!!!

There it is, Dr Scott working on his day off, training the future of Gonstead Chiropractic and helping new mum & bun all at the same time!!
And who said boys can’t multi-task?!?!?

Remember, the body is innately intelligent.

As a result, healing occurs over time in many shapes and forms.

What are you doing that is to support your body’s healing process??

Dr Scott is back!!! Hard to believe we are already in 2024….2023 seems like it was only a few short days ago!! 🤪😜

Just a reminder….Dr Scott is only in the office this week Tues, Thurs & Sat mornings. Back to regular hours next week.

Just over a week ago it became official, I take care of a “BEAR”!!
Meet Perth’s Mr Bear 2023!!

I am pretty sure this is now irrefutable evidence that Chiropractic care can help to give your body back it’s “growl”!! 🤣😂🤪😜

Lower back problems involve much more than just the spine!!

The pelvis/sacro-iliac joints are extremely susceptible to the modern lifestyle of be much more sedentary than mobile!!

Do the swipe to learn more about the SPECIFIC DIFFERENCE of the GONSTEAD CHIROPRACTIC approach to lower back problems.

Just in case you forgot that Dr Scott was WORKING in Bali, here’s the proof!! 😇🤣😜

What decisions are you making on the daily basis that you would change if you felt their impact immediately??

The “multi-layered problem effect”…each layer has a different time requirement for healing and progressing.
The cool thing is that YOU get to choose how much time you want to invest in getting better!

Dr Scott was at the Gonstead seminar in Melbourne over the weekend where he was fortunate to be able to present on Gonstead Chiropractic for babies.

And as it appears in these phots, Dr Scott is as efficient at flapping his hands and he is at flapping his lips!! 🤪🤓🤣

I know, I know….Dr Scott is away AGAIN!?!?

This time is to learn & share knowledge about Gonstead Chiropractic at the major annual seminar, this year in Melbourne.

So while everyone in Perth is lapping up sunshine, think of Dr Scott freezing to the core suffering with sub-standard food, wine and coffee…and you all know about Dr Scott & coffee!!

Read it.
Think about it.
Change if necessary.

No caption required.

What is it that makes Gonstead Chiropractic so different??

Where would start and why??

PS there are no wrong answers with something like this!!

Did you know Dr Scott is accredited as an ADVANCED PAEDIATRIC CHIROPRACTOR?!

He certainly tells us (his lovely staff) that he knows his stuff!!

You know you day is going to be a good one when you are twinning with your chiropractor!!

As Dr Scott mentioned last week, a podcast is happening!!

Currently the conversations with .alfaro are sitting in the Amazing Minds Lab podcast in Spotify. But watch this space as there may be some changes coming soon!!

Dr Scott only gets to do this once a year….”may the fourth be with you”
