Cheltenham Chiropractic Clinic is the longest running Chiropractic centre in the area – opened by Rita Hemmings in 1978 the practice has offered expert spinal healthcare to the people of Gloucestershire for 44 years! Always at the same location on the corner of Gloucester Road and Granley road the clinic expanded over the years in terms of size and capacity to the extent that some of our longer term patients occasionally got lost! This was the only practice in Gloucestershire for many years; the closest being in Oxford, Bristol and Leamington Spa. On November 9th 2015 we moved to our lovely modern premises at: Pure Offices, Hatherley Lane, Cheltenham, GL51 6SH (just behind the Nuffield Hospital.) We offer professional, effective care for all muscle and joints problems covering all age ranges from children to the elderly – our youngest patient so far was 3 days old and our eldest 101 years young! Some of the conditions we most commonly treat include: Low Back pain, Neck pain, Headaches, Postural problems, Sciatica, Sports injuries, Hip, Knee and Shoulder pain, Tendon problems, Pelvic imbalance and Arthritis. Although we can’t fix every joint and muscle problem, correcting the alignment of the body and balancing muscle tension often helps patients to move more easily and feel at their best. Catherine specialises in home rehabilitation plans to help prevent injuries recurring and we also have direct access to state-of-the-art private MRI, CT and X-ray scanning at the Cobalt Centre. Most of our patients hear about the clinic through personal recommendation (as we have had nearly 14,000 patients this is a big word-of-mouth network!) but we also receive referrals from local surgeons and GPs. Our treatments are also covered by most health insurance policies.

Many thanks to Mr Faisal “Fraz” Hussain - consultant shoulder and knee surgeon at the prestigious Royal Orthopaedic Hospital in Birmingham for a fascinating lecture on shoulder injuries yesterday evening.

Our registered Chiropractor Catherine Owers really enjoyed learning about the most recent research and cutting edge techniques in shoulder surgery - if you have shoulder pain get in touch, maybe she (or Mr Hussain) can help! 💪🏻

Do you have shoulder pain? You may have a problem with your rotator cuff.

The rotator cuff muscles provide both stability and a wide range of motion for your shoulder joint. It’s a group of four muscles and their tendons that act like a dynamic, all-in-one support system for your arm.

Here’s a breakdown of what the four rotator cuff muscles do:

The crew of four

Supraspinatus: This muscle helps you lift your arm away from your body, especially during the first 15 degrees of movement.

Infraspinatus & Teres Minor: These two muscles work together to rotate your arm outward.

Subscapularis: This muscle does the opposite, helping you rotate your arm inward toward your body.

The joint’s unsung heroes

Because the shoulder is a highly mobile ball-and-socket joint, it’s inherently unstable. That’s where the rotator cuff steps in.

Stability: These muscles keep the head of your upper arm bone (humerus) firmly centered in your shoulder blade’s socket (glenoid cavity) as you move.

Mobility: By working together, they control the precise movements of lifting and rotating your arm, preventing the joint from dislocating.

Our Chiropractor Catherine Owers has 23 years experience of treating rotator cuff injuries and other causes of shoulder pain - she utilises rehabilitation exercises to strengthen and stabilise the shoulder joint and can even refer for MRI scans or specialist surgical consultation if she thinks this is warranted. If you need help get in touch!

Back Care Awareness Week continues!

Did you know that simple daily habits can drastically reduce your risk of back pain and musculoskeletal issues?

Here are 7 things you can do every day:

1️⃣ Stand, stretch, stride – every 30 minutes

2️⃣ Mind your posture while sitting, standing, or walking

3️⃣ Get moving – walking, yoga, pilates, swimming

4️⃣ Lift with care – bend your knees, not your back

5️⃣ Stay hydrated – water helps spinal discs stay healthy

6️⃣ Manage stress – relax your muscles with exercise, nature, or hobbies

7️⃣ Prioritise sleep – support your back with the right position and routine💻
