We love celebrating wins like this with our patients.

Mave came to Active Health, after being recommended by another one of our patients (thank you Marion)! She had been suffering with daily headaches and neck pain for several months. Despite trying different options, the only relief she’d been offered elsewhere was painkillers — but the headaches kept coming back.

After starting care at the clinic with Chris, they worked together on addressing the underlying causes. Just three weeks later, Mave experienced her first full week without a single headache in a very long time.

Moments like this are why our chiropractors love doing what they do. Helping people get back to living their lives without constant discomfort is incredibly rewarding.

Well done, Mave — and thank you for trusting us with your care! 🙌

If you’re struggling with headaches or ongoing pain, please get in touch to see how we might be able to help.

What’s on your spring clean to do list?

📝Jet wash patio
📝Mow the lawn
📝Paint the fence
📝Dig the soil

We are starting to see a few sunny days here and there, and that can only mean one thing… spring clean jobs! ☀️

Spring cleaning can cause injury as muscles are used doing an activity that hasn’t been done for some time.

Our chiropractors recommend doing spring cleaning jobs in short intervals, taking regular breaks and switch hands… For those bigger jobs, spread it over several days, taking the odd day for rest.

Avoid repetitive bending over or twisting, maintain a neutral spine. When lifting or holding tools or machinery, hold items close to your body to avoid over stretching. Let your legs do more of the work than your arms.

What Usually Helps Low Back Pain?

Three things to help improve low back pain:


1. Gentle, regular movement

Spines like to move. They NEED to move. The spine responds well to:

-Regular changes of position
-Controlled movements


2. Improving Load Tolerance

Your back needs to be able to better tolerate the day-to-day activities that are aggravating it. This is usually achieved by PROGRESSIVE EXERCISE which means starting with appropriate exercises (see conditions pages) that your back can cope with and gradually increasing the amount or the difficulty of the exercises over time.


3. Reducing Sustained Postures

Prolonged sitting (without regular breaks) is one of the biggest contributors I see clinically. Sleeping position is also an important factor to consider. Small changes such as:

-Using a stand up desk
-Having a properly set up work station
-Using a lumbar support
-Finding an appropriate pillow/mattress

…..can make a huge difference.

A gymnast contacted Active Health Chiropractic after she had injured her back during training and was in considerable pain…

With the British qualifiers only two weeks away, this gymnast needed help, and fast!

Following her first treatment with Ash, we received word from her mother;

“My daughter has been going to physio for the past few months due to her injury at gymnastics, the pain was just getting worse. She was nearly taken out of her gymnastic competition this weekend due to the pain. One visit with Ash and she feels like she on the road to recovery.

Still a few sessions to go, but she was able to compete at the bristish teamgym qualifiers and they got bronze medal!

She would never of got this if it wasn’t for Ash so wanted to share the news. Thank you so much from both of us.”

WHAT HELPS WITH NECK PAIN?

While every case is different, management always involves a combination of:

Improving Posture Awareness
Restoring Normal Movement/Function
Strengthening Supporting Muscles
Activity Modification
Addressing Work and Sleep

Dr Chris Burdon (doctor of chiropractic) says;

“In clinic I often see patients whose neck problems have built up over a long period of time for a multitude of the above reasons. Once we identify the key aggravating factors and ADDRESS THEM CONSISTENTLY, many people notice improvements.

Please don’t be disheartened if things don’t improve after a week or 2. It often takes several months of focused attention to an injured neck to obtain long term results. But with perseverance, it’s absolutely possible.”

Get in touch today if you’re experiencing neck pain.

What choices can we make today to preserve our health?

Let’s fuel ourselves with nourishing fruits and vegetables, let’s move our bodies, let’s rest and let’s look after our minds with meditation.

Let’s choose health.

This classic quote from the developer of chiropractic B.J Palmer, is a gentle reminder that we should make daily choices to help preserve our health.
