Sciatica - You must have heard this term a thousand times.

Patients get very worried about the idea of having sciatica as there is a perception that you could have it for years (if untreated).

In reality sciatica isn't a condition it is just a symptom - like thumb pain, a headache or not being able to touch your toes. It is a sign of an injury but that's it - we need to know exactly what caused the sciatica to work out what kind of treatment you need.

Common causes of sciatica are disc prolapses, annular strains, facet irritation, wear and tear, tight muscles or traction injuries.

Your practitioner will perform specific neurological tests to work out exactly what is causing your sciatica to provide you with your tailored rehabilitation programme.

The treatment for some of these could be as little as a month, but as always the sooner you start getting something treated the faster it will heal!

So don't delay getting in to find out what is causing your sciatica!

Symptoms - What's the Real Story Behind Yours?

Patients can understandably be very symptom orientated due to the pain caused, and therefore only focus on the area of the body with the presenting pain. As practitioners we realise that there is generally a lot more going on under the surface.

Symptoms do not just appear out of nowhere. The origin of the problem can build up unnoticed over time, until a symptom comes to light. Generally, this presenting symptom is just the tip of the iceberg, and not the root of the problem. For example, a fire alarm ringing is only the warning for the real problem, which is the actual fire itself. In real life you wouldn’t turn off the alarm and not search for the fire!

For our practitioners to effectively help you it will take numerous visits, especially if the problem is a chronic one. Your symptoms may be due to problems in a separate part of the body. As an example, a pain in your knee could be due to a dysfunction in your spine. This dysfunction then effects the flow of information from your knee to your brain and back again, resulting in poor movement causing an imbalance that begins to cause the presenting painful symptom. Our aim is to restore healthy communication throughout your body, and maintain it over time leading to better function, less accidents and a healthier you.

The ethos at Body Consultancy is “Changing Movement, Changing Lives”. If you are interested in fixing your aches and pains long term, call today and book an appointment, or free consultation on 01425 473093

Can you squat?

This movement is very important and will affect your life EVERY day! You need to be able to squat to get on or off the sofa, on or off the toilet, in and out of bed, while gardening, using your car, getting your shoes and many more daily activities. Not only do we need to be able to perform this movement, but it also provides strength in our lower back and bum which can stave off lower back pain when we have desk-based jobs or study! If you can't confidently squat, then it is time to see a sports therapist and start working on your strength🦵🏻.

OK sporty guys and girls, we see you! If you can comfortably squat and you're up for the challenge....... get up from the sofa or your desk (obviously when on your break 😉) and try a single-leg squat...... as long as you are somewhere safe.

If you managed that movement then well done to you! Now try again, this time pay attention to the knee you are standing on. This will either drop towards your other knee, or out away from you or go dead straight. Dead straight is the goal but even when you concentrate on it, it won't be easy. The direction of movement shows either a weaknesses or tightness's in your quadricep muscles. You want to make sure your training is balanced to prevent you getting issues in the future. If your knee doesn't go completely straight, you may want to book in to find out exactly what is going on and how you can alter your training to prevent this.

Freer movement for a freer life!

It is no surprise that we become less mobile, and less active as we age.

As our body stops operating like it once did, we tend to stay home more often and exercise less. This reduction in body movement has a negative impact on the quality of our life. As a result, muscles will harden and become tighter – making it even more difficult to move around.

What a massage can do here is to help by softening both muscle and tissue. Massage achieves this by increasing the blood flow to these specific areas. Our body is a miraculous thing, and with a bit of prompting in older age, it can continue to serve us well into the future.

Massage therapy is particularly useful for older bodies' as it offers many physical and mental benefits, which results in the improvement of health and general well-being. Some of these benefits include:

Relieves arthritic pain
Helps to treat musculoskeletal pain
Improves balance
Helps with stroke recovery
Improves circulation
Reduces stress
Reduction in muscle tension

Lockdown restrictions are lifting further on 12th April, enabling services such as massage to be carried out again. Ella our trained sports therapist can help you! She is currently offering a free 15-minute consultation where you can talk through your problems, and she can answer any questions you might have.

Call now on 01425 473093 to book your appointment, or FREE consultation!
