As healthcare providers it is our responsibility to keep the health of our clients and team at the foremost of our priorities. We also recognise that the spread of Covid-19 would necessitate the closure of the practice and subsequently we would be unable to help and serve our community.

We can’t wait for the masks to be binned for the final time either.. but until then thanks for your understanding 😊

Both are pretty messy!

Herniated discs, much like a jam doughnut, don’t bulge without loaded pressure.

Chronic pressure on a disc causes this inflammation to occur. Pressure can result from many factors such as poor bending and lifting patterns, sitting for too long, compression injuries, stiffness elsewhere in the spine and weakness of core muscles.

The aim of chiropractic treatment for disc herniations is to reduce this pressure off the inflamed disc using various distraction techniques and often equipment.

Advice, guidance, (specific) exercise plan and reassurance are all vital parts of our treatment too.

This is a really debilitating injury and has various stages. Treatment is tailored to specific needs and tolerances, please do reach out if you need help.

Well isn’t this THE BEST Monday we’ve had in a long time!

Thanks to Mr Weatherman for ensuring the sun is out on queue for all the fun and games to be had 🙏🏼

Enjoy guys, who else has been quick to bag their spot on the court? 🙋🏻‍♀️

Listen to your body whisper, so you don’t have to hear it scream 📣

So often we see people who had they visited us when their pain was just a ‘niggle’, would have saved themselves a lot of pain and aggro..

We don’t want you to have to go through that. There’s a lot we can tell about your body just from our assessment; no need to see you bent over or limping!

On the hand though, surely you want to feel the best you can anyway? Let’s get to it!

A great article from the BBC today, with 5 ways to avoid lockdown back pain:

In lockdown, days on end can be spent hunched over a laptop without ever leaving the house.

It’s so important that everyone who can stays at home, and follows government advice to keep the R number down. But while we’re at home, there are things we can keep in mind to stay as healthy as possible even when we don’t have our usual routines...

🤸‍♂️ Keep moving - without access to gyms and exercise classes, it’s easy to loose fitness. But there are loads of resources online to keep you moving and healthy! Why not try a yoga class on YouTube, or follow along with The Body Coach Joe Wicks’ daily PE classes.

💧 Drink plenty of water - when you are at home all day, it’s easy to end up making endless cups of tea, just for something to do. Be mindful of your caffeine intake, and instead make sure you drink plenty of water. If you’re working from home, staying hydrated will help keep you focused and productive.

😴 Take a Break - whatever you’re doing, whether it’s working from home, homeschooling, or binging Netflix on the sofa - avoid staying in one position for too long. Taking regular breaks is the best way to keep moving and reduce stress on your body.

💺 Avoid the sofa - if you are working from home, it might be very tempting to set yourself up in bed or on the sofa. But although it might seem comfy, if your back and neck are unsupported then you’re more likely to get aches and pains. Sit at a desk or table instead, with a chair that supports your back

We are open, but not quite as usual!

We know these are worrying times, so we wanted to reassure you we are doing everything we can to keep our team and clients safe:
- We have halved the number of clients we see in a day, with a 15 minute break between each appointment for cleaning, and to ensure social distancing.
- Each clinic room is thoroughly cleaned between each client.
- Our reception team are working from home, to reply to all your emails and voicemails.
- During Tier 4, we are not able to offer massage appointments.
- Our chiropractors wear full PPE (as you can see in this delightful selfie), and our clients wear face coverings whilst in the practice.

These are just some of the precautions we have brought in. If you’d like to find out more, send us an email to hello@twcchiropractic.co.uk and we will be happy to help 🙏👍
