Sleep is so important!
It is when our bodies rest and repair and heal.
Here are some quick and simple tips for getting the best night sleep.
– have a great bedroom environment that is dark with minimal noise
– comfortable bed and pillow
– no screens before bed
– exercise (but not before bed)
– good diet and no alcohol before bed (it disturbs sleep)
– look into a magnesium or melatonin supplement if needed (talk to your health practitioner)
– get out in the sunshine during the day
– go to bed and get up at the same time each day
– deep breathes and relax your nervous system
Good night and sweet dreams!

Baby Cross Crawl Exercise helps to develop the bridge between the left and right brain hemispheres
Hey Mamma’s ..
This is an intentional cross-lateral exercise for babies in which you cross the mid-line of the body by touching opposite hand to knee or foot. This exercise helps to build the bridge between the right and left hemispheres of the brain. This allows electrical impulses and information to pass between the two sides of the brain, which is essential for physical coordination and cerebral activities, such as reading, language and hand-to-eye coordination. It is easy to perform at diaper changes and babies usually have a great time with it as well.
Enjoy!

Chiropractic Care during COVID – 19
Chiropractic is an essential service and we are currently accepting new and current urgent, acute or emergency Chiropractic patients only. The definition of who we are able to see is defined below from our regulatory college. Do you feel you meet this criteria? If so, send me an email at admin@campbellcc.com. I am here to help.
“Care for patients experiencing a sudden and debilitating change in functional abilities (understood as walking, standing, sitting, lifting floor-to-waist or waist-to-shoulder, stair climbing, ladder climbing) or significant restrictions (experienced during bending/twisting, repetitive movement, pushing/pulling with right/left arm) as well as injury to head/neck/back and extremities.”
We always make sure the COVID-19 pre screening and protocol is followed for each visit. In order to be seen, we want to make sure that you are free from any COVID 19 symptoms, you haven’t had any recent travel and you haven’t been around anyone who has had any recent travel or symptoms for at least 14 days.
