This month is COPD Awareness Month.

Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) affects millions worldwide, and can have knock-on effect on neck and back pain. But there are proactive steps we can all take to support our respiratory system and overall wellness.

Here are some simple ways to help care for your lungs:

✨ Move your body - even gentle activity like walking, stretching, or light cardio can help keep your lungs and circulation healthy.

✨ Eat nutrient-rich foods - vitamins, antioxidants, and minerals from fresh fruits, vegetables, and whole foods support your body’s resilience, including your respiratory system.

✨ Stay informed - awareness, early detection, and healthy daily habits make a difference.

Small, consistent choices can go a long way in supporting your lungs and your overall well-being.

But what is the activator instrument?

You may have heard me mention it, or seen these images before, but do you know how it can help you?

The Activator Method Chiropractic Technique (AMCT) has been the subject of numerous studies evaluating its effectiveness, reliability, and safety.

As Smile Health Alnwick prioritises gentle chiropractic care, we use the Activator Instrument because it is gentle on the patient and delivers great results.

Manual manipulation isn’t always the answer, but I know that being faced with tools you haven’t seen before can be daunting too.

So swipe through this carousel to uncover how the Activator Instrument could help treat you.

Even if your mobility is fine, there are things you can do to help someone in need.

Those who struggle to keep moving at the best of times are likely to struggle more during the wintertime.

Whether it’s your friend, family member or neighbour, swipe through to see how you could help them maintain their mobility.

Your joint health, circulation and muscle strength must be tended to, to keep your mobility in check all year round, so lending a hand could go a long way.

Will you be lending a hand to someone you need this winter?

Festive fun will do more than bring you joy…

Most people will find it more difficult to keep mobile in the winter.

The cold and dark evenings make a walk, jog or generally leaving the house less appealing, but it is very important to maintain your mobility over the winter period.

But activities like these are an incentive to get out and about, lubricate those joints and also support the local community and get involved in the festivities in the process.

Here are a few of the festive activities happening in Alnwick this year, starting this month!

How are you planning on getting out and about during the winter months?

This is your reminder not to leave those ni**les to develop into further pain.

Your body is telling you that something is not right, and only when you listen are you able to remove that pain.

Once Julia sought out Smile Health Alnwick, we were able to create a treatment plan to banish her pain for good.

Remember that the solution to your discomfort isn’t just a standalone visit to the chiropractor. It is:

👉 Listening to your ni**le of discomfort early on and book your appointment

👉 Attending your chiropractor appointment and following through with treatment

👉 Following the advice and/ or exercises provided by your chiropractor to prevent this pain from reappearing.

My door is always open to new patients, so if you have a ni**le in it’s early stages, or one that has grown into pain, don’t be afraid to book in with your gentle chiropractor: https://smilehealthalnwick.co.uk/online-bookings/

A question that may not immediately come to mind until you’re about to leave for your appointment! 👇

To make sure you’re prepared, swipe through the graphic to see our recommendations.

This will ensure you feel comfortable in your appointment and will better allow us to assess your pain and treat you then, if needed.

What you should wear to a chiropractor appointment is often a question you don’t think to ask until the last minute! But luckily, we have an FAQ page on our website for you to find the answers you’re looking for with ease, including this.

But how can we do this? 🤔

You may assume you cannot see a chiropractor during pregnancy but that isn’t true.

It is only the first trimester that you should refrain from seeing a chiropractor, unless you already attend our clinic.

Take a look through the graphic to find out all about how we can make adjustments that will make your pregnancy more comfortable, we even have a special tool in the clinic to help us safely examine and treat you - swipe to find out!

Working from home can be cosy… but it can also make your spine grumble if you’re sitting too long.

You would be surprised at how much a commute gets your body moving and prevents any ni**les from arising. When you don’t have this, you have to make more of an effort to maintain that mobility. 🤸

The next couple of months, I will be providing some tips on mobility during these colder months, as it can be easy to let it fall to the wayside when it’s cold and dark outside.

Firstly, swipe through this graphic to uncover the ways you can keep up with your mobility while you work from home during the winter months.

Your body whispers before it screams. Listen early, move often, and you’ll prevent discomfort before it even starts.

“What is the best way to get rid of my pain.”

The most effective form of chiropractic care is not necessarily manual manipulation…

Every patient will need a different treatment plan, and at Smile Health Alnwick, we take a more holistic approach to make sure you are comfortable when receiving your treatment.

This means using treatments such as Low Level Laser Therapy - a form of chiropractic care that involves using low-power lasers to stimulate healing and reduce pain.

The benefits of this are extensive, but you can swipe through to see just a few ways LLLT could remove your pain.

Depending on your issue, we may recommend LLLT in your treatment plan.

For more information on this, head on over to our website, and reach out to me if you have any back, neck or joint ni**les you need looking at.

This is not a fictional tale! 🎃

This spooky story is actually the truth for so many people.

I understand that it is inconvenient, or nerve wracking, or easy to forget to book a chiropractic appointment when your ni**le of pain or discomfort ‘isn’t that bad.’

However, just like this story, the longer you leave this small discomfort, the worse it will get, and the longer it will take to heal.

So this spooky tale for Halloween is also a reminder not to ignore that pain in your back, neck or joints.

It is time to book in your chiropractor appointment: https://smilehealthalnwick.co.uk/online-bookings/

Are you sceptical about LLLT?

This is understandable, as you may not have heard it before.

However, as Smile Health Alnwick is a holistic chiropractic clinic, we use methods that are gentler on the body to improve our patients’ experience and bring them the results they are looking for.

If you swipe through, you can see that Low Level Laser Therapy is a very effective form of chiropractic care, and as a bonus, it is also gentle and non-invasive.

Head on over to our website if you’d like to find out more about this specific treatment. I am happy to answer any questions you may have: https://smilehealthalnwick.co.uk/online-bookings/

Our Story

Welcome to Smile Health, I’m Jane Cooper the principal chiropractor and I help to restore health and mobility naturally through chiropractic. I trained at the McTimoney College of Chiropractic which is a gentle whole-body form of treatment and I have also trained in the Activator Method technique.

I believe we all have the ability to make the most of what we have and that chiropractic is the catalyst to being able to move and sleep properly.

If you are suffering from painful musculoskeletal problems or sports injuries. Initial advice is free when you call 07813 708092. Chiropractic is also available in Berwick at Berwick Smile Dental Care, West End, Tweedmouth.
