Ensuring you get good quality sleep is essential for achieving a healthy body and mind. Many people often end up getting less sleep than their body requires to be well rested. For achieving a healthy body, physically and mentally, it is important that you are achieving at least a minimum of 7 hours of quality sleep each night.

Your chiropractor in Mississauga can help you better your sleep as they are the experts of the musculoskeletal body. When I experience pain in my back, visiting my local chiropractor helps tremendously. This is because my chiropractor is able to determine the root cause of the pain and sort out any knots, strains or tightness in my back, This helps me feel less tense in my back. Thus, if you face any issues with body pain or muscle tightness, you should instantly book an appointment to your local chiropractor, to have it sorted!

Other things you can do to improve sleep quality:

  • Set a bedtime:

It is important to get into a daily routine. This will help regulate your melatonin levels and will prevent you from tossing and turning in bed!

  • Stretch before you sleep:

Try including at least 10 to 15 minutes of stretching before you go to bed. This will ensure that your muscles are relaxed. Stretching will help ease the daily tension buildup that can occur within your body. I like to do basic stretches such as touching my toes, stretching my shoulders and arms before I go to bed.

  • Drink water

Staying hydrated is extremely important for a healthy body! This will help reduce and eliminate toxins that naturally occur within the body. It may also prevent you from getting up in the middle of the night to grab a cup of water!

  • Put away the screens:

Remember that light up screens such as your phone, tablet or television impacts the melatonin levels in your body. Aim to put away all technology 30 to 60 minutes before your bedtime. This will allow your body to increase the production of melatonin and allow you to get sleepy quicker!
