Its not just adults suffering with back and neck pain. I'm seeing more and more children and young adults suffering from neck and back problems because of time spent on phones, tablets, and other devices.
The phenomenon is called "text neck" and the long-term effects on physical growth and development are unknown.

If your son or daughter is struggling with back or neck pain please feel free to contact me for more information on the treatments I provide

Massage for children/young adults and how it can benefit them.

There is no specific age restriction on having a massage. That said, massage in itself can be used at any age to help relax and enhance wellbeing. Whether your child is a musician, athlete, an academic achiever or even a teenager massage will benefit them in some way.

It is proven to increase dopamine (the feel good hormone) and decrease cortisol (the stress hormone). This helps regulate anxiety and stress levels that can become imbalanced due to social, family and academic pressures.

Our kids are more active than ever, in mind and in body. Teaching them to manage stress and body awareness while they are young can help prevent a lifetime of chronic pain and poor habits.

We treat as young as new born right up to adult. If you would like more information on the treatments we offer then please contact us.

Working from home has taken its toll on many of us over this last year. Working and sitting from make shift desks and not moving around for hours is bad for us and our posture. Since lockdown began there has been a surge in cases of lockdown injuries. This dosent just include poor working conditions this includes injury caused through exercise at home and in some cases trauma from gardening. I have been inundated from clients over the weeks with neck, shoulder upper and lower back problems that have stemmed mainly from working from home. For many of us trying to grab a free space from kitchens, living areas, bedrooms, even bathrooms in some cases is taking its toll. This dosent include the many hours alot of us spend browsing social media and online shopping sites on our phones. The stress we put on our necks from sitting with laptops on our laps and looking down at our phones can put so much stress on our cervical spine it contributes to alot of our neck, shoulder and back problems. This can lead to debilitating headaches and back problems which then causes us to suffer with severe pain, inability to move properly, sleep problems, mental health and irritability. Many of us have become alot more sedentary and therefore alot more of us are suffering more than usual.

Combining these gentle stretches each day along with regular breaks will help with general back pain and range of movement.

Did you know that 'ear massage is good for you?

Studies have found that ear massage is a great way to reduce discomfort caused by muscle pain. A gentle pull and rub of the ear lobes stimulate the nerve endings that lead to the release of endorphins. Endorphin, the feel-good hormone helps in relieving pain.

Do you suffer with pain in your shoulder and you're unsure why?

You could be suffering with shoulder arthritis, tendinitis, impingement, a rotator cuff tear, a strain or bursitis.

One of the most common problems I deal with with within my line of work is shoulder pain. Shoulder problems can occur because of an injury, trauma or recent surgery and some times people are unsure why they are experiencing pain at all.

There are so many different therapies for injuries now a days surgery can be avoided and like many things i do think there is an alternative solution to treating a problem. If you have been diagnosed and you are unsure of your diagnosis or want to avoid surgery then I do recommend having a second opinion. Do your own research and book an appointment with a healthcare professional who specialises in this line of work.

I have experienced my own issues with shoulder pain after an injury and i was convinced that i had a long term problem and needed surgery. However I booked an appointment with my physio worked hard to strengthen the shoulder, rotator cuff muscles and avoided strenuous exercises. After 6 months I was pain free and had full range of movement.

I have attached a video which i think is great for anyone who is experiencing shoulder pain or poor range of movement. The Video gives you shoulder exercises that you can do yourself to help diagnose your problem.

"Famous" Physical Therapists Bob Schrupp and Brad Heineck help you determine what is causing your shoulder pain. They demonstrate easy to perform tests you c...

Working from home for some can literally be a real pain in the neck! Any of these images look familiar to you? This is the picture that alot of my clients paint when i treat them.
More and more people are working remotely since the pandemic started. Home schooling, poor work stations, poor posture, stress, anxiety, lack of exercise and just generally coping in these surreal times can all add stress to the back. Unfortunately I cannot help with hands on care at the moment but I can still help and advise.

I have attached a BBC link which will definitely help those that are home working.

Why is massage good for you?

Massage calms the nervous system, improves blood circulation, lymphatic circulation, relieves muscle pain, and helps with pain management in conditions such as arthritis, sciatica, and muscle spasms. Regular massage can help with all of the above as well as ease stress, muscle tension and sleep problems.
