🎃 When Witches Brew & Werewolves Howl: Why Your Spine Might Be Haunted This Halloween

If you thought Halloween was scary because of ghosts and goblins, wait until you meet the real monster — your posture.

I came across a clever article from Lushington Chiropractic called “The Spooky Side of Back and Neck Pain.” It takes a playful spin on how our favorite Halloween characters would totally benefit from a chiropractic visit. Think about it: witches hunched over bubbling cauldrons (classic lumbar strain), zombies dragging their feet with stiff necks (text-neck’s undead cousin), and vampires spending eternity in coffins (zero lumbar support). You get the idea.

It’s funny — and true. Most of us are guilty of similar habits: too much sitting, bad lifting technique, endless scrolling. The result? We move like Frankenstein the next morning.

This article is a great reminder that behind the humor lies a real message: movement, posture, and regular chiropractic care keep your spine from turning into a horror story. So, this Halloween, as you haul candy buckets, carve pumpkins, or chase your sugar-fueled kids — lift with your legs, stretch before the night begins, and maybe schedule a quick adjustment before your next monster mash.

Your spine deserves a treat too — not just tricks.
