Chiropractic Awareness week

It’s Chiropractic Awareness week!

Posted on by

This year to celebrate Chiropractic Awareness Week, we’ll be sharing our role in supporting the health of our community to help you achieve the best health that you, your family and friends can.

 This Chiropractic Awareness Week (22nd April – 28th April) the team at Pure Health Chiropractic and the British Chiropractic Association (BCA) have embarked on a mission to improve the back, bone and joint health of our community by launching our awareness campaign about how Chiropractic can help you with your back, bone and joint health.

Recent data from a 2023 study by the BCA shows that over half (56%) of Brits across the country feel hesitant about seeking help from their GP about bone and joint related issues* – with data from NHS England showing that over 30 million working days are lost due to musculoskeletal conditions every year in the UK*. Our profession’s annual awareness week, Chiropractic Awareness Week, aims to raise awareness about the importance of back, bone and joint health.

Over the next few days, we’ll be releasing a series of tips, tricks and hacks you can add into your daily routine to keep the back pain at ease, as well as some testimonials of how we’ve helped some our happy patients get back to their best – keep your eyes peeled!

We can help you to achieve better health. Why not come and see what our chiropractors and massage therapists in Stafford and Newport can do for you. We look forward to seeing you.

Popular Chiropractor recommended pillow is now back in stock!

Posted on by

As a chiropractor in Newport and Stafford, I’m always being asked which pillow is best to help with neck or back pain. It’s not an easy answer since everyone is different BUT there is one Chiropractor recommended neck pillow in particular as I use it myself!

For the last 10 years we have been stocking a neck pillow that has proved hugely popular and helped some of my patients get the best night’s sleep they’ve had for years: The Complete Sleeprrr Original pillow.

Adjustable

Like many pillows, it is therapeutically designed in luxurious memory foam and has a gently contoured shape to encourage natural spinal alignment. However, the main difference between this pillow and many others is that it can be altered to suit your needs.

Chiropractor neck pillow

It has a huge range of adjustments (up to 12) to enable you to change the height, depth and firmness of the pillow by adding or removing selected pieces. To alter the height to suit your comfort and postural needs, there are two removable inserts.

Change the firmness

You can also alter the firmness of the pillow by taking out or adding the surface “foam noodles”. This unique customisation helps to take the risk out of your pillow being too high, too low, too hard or too soft. One size suits all!

Chiropractor neck pillow

Everyone who has tried one so far (including me) has loved it and in my opinion its one of the best on the market. It is also around half the cost of some of the leading brand orthopaedic memory foam pillows at only £75 from our website including postage to the UK (RRP £85). It could also make a great present if you know someone who struggles to get comfortable at night.

This offer isn’t available in shops, and you can only get them through UK clinics or on our website, so if you would like to know more then please contact us or visit the Complete Sleeprrr website at www.completesleeprrr.co.uk.

If you struggle with neck or back pain, then come and see our expert Chiropractor or Massage Therapists, so we can assess, treat and help you manage your problem.

PLEASE NOTE: Buying this product is done so at your own discretion and does not imply any sort of diagnosis or treatment of a condition you may have. Due to hygiene reasons, we also cannot accept returns. If you suffer with any health problems and think you may need help, please see a qualified health professional. To book an appointment with us, please visit our Contact page or visit our online booking..

All the best,

Chiropractic can help your back pain

“I’ve got Sciatica!”

Posted on by

As an experienced chiropractor in Stafford and Newport, I am often presented with ‘I’ve got sciatica’ when seeing patients for the first time. But did you know that ‘sciatica’ isn’t really a true diagnosis?

‘Sciatica’ is a term that loosely describes any injury in the low back that causes pain down the legs or buttocks. It is derived from the name of the largest and longest nerve in that region: the sciatic nerve.

There are also different types of sciatica. True sciatica (also known as neurogenic or radicular pain) is typically caused by an injury to a spinal (intervertebral) disc, and can lead to irritation or damage to the nearby spinal nerves which then form the sciatic nerve. This is frequently known as a “slipped disc”, and leads to pain in a particular pattern down the leg, often past the knee, and can also be accompanied by pins and needles, sensation changes and muscle weakness. Usually the leg pain is far worse than the back pain.

Non-radicular sciatica (or referred pain) is much more common and is caused by an injury in the muscles, joints or ligaments of the back which then radiates pain into the buttock and/or leg. This typically stays above the knee and doesn’t cause symptoms such as pins and needles or loss of strength (although severe pain may cause weakness). The back pain is generally worse than the leg pain.

It’s important to get it checked

In all cases it is essential to get a diagnosis with suitable treatment and advice as soon as possible. Nerve symptoms can become chronic or even permanent if serious and left too long.

We are experts in assessing and treating back pain with sciatica

As chiropractors, we are experts in assessing and treating these types of injuries so that the most appropriate treatment, education or referral can be given. The most important step is to take a detailed case history, and perform a thorough neurological and orthopaedic examination, prior to any treatment plan.

Most people respond well to treatment. Once a certain level of improvement has been achieved, appropriate exercises will be offered to help stabilise the spine and take control of your health. Depending on your circumstances, regular chiropractic care and exercises may be recommended to help to maintain spinal function, so that in the long term the problem is less likely to return.

We can help you to achieve better health. Why not come and see what our chiropractors and massage therapists in Stafford and Newport can do for you. We look forward to seeing you.

Working from home – tips for your health

Posted on by

Welcome to 2021 and hopefully a new start to a better year! We hope you had a chance to at least get together with a few family members over the holidays to cheer you up, I know we all need it at the moment.

It used to be that working from home was seen as a great way to get up later, ease into those emails with a few cups of coffee, and sometimes not even get dressed for the whole day! It was a rare luxury, that could be construed as a bit of an excuse to skive off a bit.

How it’s all changed! With the advent of Covid-19 and the current lockdowns, many businesses have been encouraged (forced?) to allow staff to work at home, and have soon realised that they can be just as productive as they are in the office without the need for that tedious daily commute.

Chiropractic assessment

However, as good as this all is for the environment, time savings and productivity, I’ve seen quite a few cases of patients adversely affected by a lack of activity, interaction, and poor posture and workstation set-up. Here’s some helpful tips to hopefully keep you going:

The best posture is one that changes regularly.

Make sure you change your position or get up and move every 30-40 minutes. Standing desks can often help, but make sure you don’t stand all day either!

If you must sit for long periods minimise stresses on the body.

A good workstation setup and the right equipment is essential to preventing painful postural conditions.

Make sure that you get outside regularly.

Being stuck indoors for hours can also be a bit of a drag. Take a daily walk for 15-20 minutes. We need fresh air and daylight to elevate mood, and for vitamin D. If there’s no sunshine (particularly at this time of year), consider a daily supplement.

We can help you to achieve better health. Why not come and see what our chiropractors and massage therapists in Stafford and Newport can do for you. We look forward to seeing you.
