Spinal Health Week 2025

National Spinal Health Week is an initiative of the Australian Chiropractors Association (ACA). It is Australia’s longest-running national health awareness campaign dedicated to improving the spinal health of Australians of all ages.

Annually, Spinal Health Week focuses on a specific spinal health issue while promoting the importance of maintaining good spinal health to improve overall wellbeing.

This year, our theme is ‘Heads Up on Tech Neck’ which focuses on raising awareness of the growing issue of tech neck – a common concern among mobile phone and computer users. Our goal is to educate Australians on the importance of spinal health and reinforce the critical role chiropractors play in addressing neck pain and posture-related issues.

More information on the 2025 campaign coming soon.

National Spinal Health Week (26 May – 1 June 2025) is an initiative of the Australian Chiropractors Association (ACA) to educate Australians about Tension Neck Syndrome – commonly known as ‘Tech Neck’.

Spinal Health Week is Australia’s longest running (over 25-years), award-winning national health awareness campaign dedicated to improving the spinal health of Australians of all ages. Each year, the campaign focusses on a specific spinal health issue that impacts individuals and the workforce while promoting the importance of maintaining overall good spinal health to improve Australians health and wellbeing.

With over 34 million mobile phone connections and 95 percent of the Australian population accessing the internet via a smartphone, spending too much time with the head bent forward reading or scrolling electronic devices has been proven to cause tech neck. Computer use is also linked to tech neck. With computer usage an everyday activity for 75.5 percent of  Australians aged 16 to 64, the condition is common among those who frequently use computers particularly office workers and students.

With prevention the best protection, individuals and organisations can join the National Spinal Health Week ‘Movement’ to help prevent musculoskeletal injuries that cause neck pain.

By registering your participation today, you’ll receive a digital Spinal Health Week Tool Kit with a range of free resources to help educate Australians about positive spinal health and wellbeing. By working together this Spinal Health Week, we can help Australian’s take back control from the debilitating effects of neck pain.

Consult a Chiro

Every week over 400,000 chiropractic consultations are providing Australians with effective pain relief.

Chiropractic care is not a one size fits all healthcare option. Chiropractors carefully assess each patient individually and tailor their care accordingly.

By using a variety of non-surgical techniques, such as specific spinal adjustments, manual therapy and low-force intervention, chiropractors offer a drug-free, hands-on approach to spinal healthcare.
