Most people never think about how their body is positioned while they sleep. If you wake up with a stiff neck, a nagging ache in your lower back, or a hand that feels numb before you’re even out of bed, the position you sleep in might be working against your spine every night without you realizing...

Propping a child on one hip while you cook dinner, answer the door, or just walk across a room, is one of the most natural movements a parent or caregiver makes. But that same natural habit, repeated day after day, can eventually reshape how your spine and hips carry your own weight.

You reach for your coffee and your wrist twinges. You lean on your elbow while scrolling through email and feel a dull ache settle in by mid-afternoon. Most people blame typing itself, but the real culprit is often something much less obvious: the exact position your desk puts your arms in for eight...

How does a child’s brain learn to control their body?
It starts with information
Every second, a child’s developing brain is receiving an enormous stream of sensory information from the world around them and from within their own body.
Their eyes tell what they can see. Their balance system tells them where they are in space. Touch tells them what they are in contact with. And receptors in their muscles and joints provide information about where their body is and how it is moving.
The brain takes all this info, processes it and uses it to continually refine movement, posture, balance and coordination.
Think about a toddler learning to walk. They wobble, step, lose balance, correct themselves and try again. Each attempt produces new sensory information for the brain to process. With repetition, the nervous system learns and those developing neural pathways become increasingly refined.
Every movement is both an output from the brain and new information going back into it.
And that brings us to an important question.
Where does the spine fit into all of this?
That’s what we’ll explore next as part of children’s health month at Life Chiropractic Centre.

Every movement is helping a child’s brain learn about their body.

September is Children’s Health Month at Life Chiropractic Centre.

A child’s brain and body are constantly learning together. From learning to hold their head up, roll and crawl, through walking, running, climbing and playing sport, movement is part of an extraordinary neurological learning process.

Every movement creates sensory information. The eyes, balance system, muscles and joints continually send information back to the developing brain, telling it where the body is, how it is moving and what is happening around it.
The brain processes this information and uses it to continually refine movement, posture, balance and coordination.
And this is where the spine becomes particularly interesting. The joints, muscles and tissues around the spine are richly supplied with sensory receptors that provide the nervous system with information about movement, position and load.

A child’s spine is therefore much more than a column of bones. It is part of an extraordinary communication system between the body and the developing brain.

Throughout September we’ll be exploring this relationship as part of children’s Health Month at Life Chiropractic Centre.

Growing brains. Growing bodies. Healthy movement.
