Why is a chiropractor talking about stress? 🤔

Because your body and brain are inseparable, and stress has a huge impact on your musculoskeletal system.

When you’re stressed, your body switches into fight-or-flight mode. Muscles (especially in your neck and shoulders) tighten, breathing changes, and your nervous system becomes more sensitive to pain.

Short-term? That’s normal.
Long-term? That’s where problems start.

Chronic stress can lead to:
• Tight, “switched-on” neck and shoulder muscles
• Headaches and migraines
• Increased pain sensitivity
• Poor posture
• Ongoing back and mid-back discomfort

Those tense muscles don’t just feel tight, they can radiate pain and keep your body stuck in a stress loop.

Chiropractic care helps by:
✔️ Reducing muscle tension
✔️ Restoring movement and posture
✔️ Calming the nervous system
✔️ Helping break the stress–pain cycle

When tight muscles relax, they send signals back to the brain that it’s safe to switch out of stress mode.

So yes — stress can cause very real, physical pain. And addressing the musculoskeletal effects can make a real difference.

Your body keeps the score. We help it reset.

Does bad posture actually cause back pain?

“Sit up straight.”
“Shoulders back.”
“Don’t slouch.”

We hear this all the time, and many people believe their back pain is caused by “bad posture.” But the research tells a different story.

👉 There’s very little evidence that one specific posture (upright or slouched) leads to pain. Some studies even show no link at all between posture and back or neck pain.

So what does matter?

⏱️ How long you stay in one position.
Any posture, sitting, standing, or even “perfect posture”, can lead to stiffness and discomfort if it’s held for too long.

💡 Movement is the key.
Changing positions every 30–60 minutes helps keep joints, muscles, and nerves happier.

Try:
• Shifting how you sit
• Standing up or walking for a few minutes
• Using a sit-stand desk
• Gentle stretches or mobility breaks

And remember - the best posture is your next one!

If back pain is limiting your day, our chiropractors can help you move better, not just “sit straighter.” 💪

How Can Chiropractic Care Help Sciatica?

Chiropractic care offers an effective, natural approach to managing sciatica by addressing the underlying cause rather than just masking symptoms.

Treatment may include spinal adjustments, joint mobilisation, soft tissue therapy, dry needling, and tailored rehabilitation exercises. Together, these aim to reduce nerve irritation, improve movement, relieve muscle tension, and restore healthy spinal function.

Most patients experience significant improvement within a short course of care, especially when treatment is combined with personalised home exercise advice and lifestyle guidance.

If sciatica is affecting your daily life, early assessment and treatment can help speed up recovery and prevent recurrence.

2/3 in our Sciatica series - Can Sciatica be serious, and do I need a scan?

The good news is that most cases of sciatica are not serious and often improve with the right care, movement, and exercises. Imaging such as MRI scans is rarely required, as scan findings don’t always match symptoms and usually don’t change the treatment plan.

A thorough chiropractic assessment can accurately diagnose the cause of your symptoms using detailed orthopaedic and neurological testing.

However, urgent medical advice should be sought if you experience:
• Sudden weakness, pain or pins and needles in both legs
• Loss of bladder or bowel control
• Numbness around the saddle area
• Severe back pain with fever or unexplained weight loss

Did you know that 𝗪𝗘'𝗩𝗘 𝗪𝗢𝗡 𝗔𝗡 𝗔𝗪𝗔𝗥𝗗!?

We were thinking about keeping it a secret until the plaque arrives in February, but we're a bit too proud of the achievement!

Clinics across the country are invited to share their approach with the Royal College of Chiropractors. Those clinics that demonstrate the highest level of patient care receive the Patient Partnership Quality Mark (PPQM).

Whilst this award reflects the hard work of our incredible team, thanks also has to go to our fantastic patients, whose trust, confidence and support motivate us to keep improving.

First up in our Sciatica Series - what is Sciatica & What Causes It?

Sciatica is a term used to describe pain that travels from the lower back or buttocks down the leg, sometimes reaching as far as the calf or foot. It may also cause symptoms such as pins and needles, burning sensations, numbness, or weakness in the leg or foot.

The most common cause of sciatica is a bulging disc in the lower back, which can irritate or compress the sciatic nerve. Other common causes include age-related spinal changes, muscle tightness in the hips and buttocks, pregnancy-related changes, or direct trauma such as a fall or sports injury.

Although sciatica can be very painful, it is rarely serious and most cases respond extremely well to conservative treatment, including chiropractic care.

If leg pain is stopping you from doing what you love, help is available. 💙

Strength Sunday! 💪🏻

Remember bands can be used to add support as well as resistance - their versatility is one of many reasons we love them!

Body weight exercises like tricep dips (that Beth is doing here) and pull ups can be super tough and feel almost un-achievable - bands are a fantastic way to bridge that gap!

We’re checking your reflexes!

Reflexes, more formally known as deep tendon reflexes, are automatic muscle responses that occur when a tendon is gently tapped. They provide valuable information about how well your nervous system is functioning and help us identify any potential concerns.

Reflex testing is one part of a comprehensive neurological examination, which may also include:

✅ Muscle strength testing
✅ Skin sensation
✅ Proprioception (your ability to sense where your body is in space without looking)
✅ Cranial nerve screening
✅ Coordination and balance testing

Together, this information helps us determine:
🟢 Whether your nerves are functioning normally
🟢 If not, where an issue may be coming from
🟢 Whether the problem is likely spinal in origin and something we can help manage
🟢 Or whether further investigation is needed, including referral to another healthcare professional such as a neurologist

We perform basic neurological screening on all new patients, with more detailed testing added when appropriate based on your symptoms and medical history. In most cases, everything is functioning exactly as it should.

If we ever do find something outside the expected range, we’ll explain it clearly, discuss next steps with you, and arrange any appropriate referrals. Your safety and overall health are always our priority.

A little bit of myth-busting today! People often believe that bending is bad for your back. But bending isn't the enemy!

Your spine is strong, adaptable, and designed to move; forward, backward, and everywhere in between. Avoiding movement can actually cause things to stiffen up over time, which will increase your risk of injury.

With the right guidance, bending and moving our bodies builds confidence, resilience, and a healthier spine. Keep moving. Your back was made for it!

If you want to build a healthier, more resilient spine, let us know - we can help with that!

If you want one small habit that can make a huge difference to how your body feels and functions - make it movement snacking!

Movement snacking means adding short, easy bursts of movement throughout your day. Just 5–10 minutes here and there can help:
✅ Reduce stiffness and tension
✅ Improve mood
✅ Boost focus and cognitive function

Examples:
✔️ A short walk at lunchtime
✔️ A quick set of bodyweight exercises
✔️ A few stretches while waiting for the kettle to boil ☕

Try adding movement snacks to your day — your body and mind will thank you! 🙌
