The thumper massage is a fantastic way to loosen up and warm the muscles. The powerful vibrations also create relaxation and lightness. I use it before adjustments as it creates less shock to the body.

TMJ or jaw pain affects many people. Clicking, sharp pain, facial pain, or a combination of a few symptoms. Chiropractic helps reduce muscle tightness, improve jaw mechanisms, and give people their quality of life back.
I've just added the TMJ page to my website to offer this service.

A calf strain is a common injury that occurs when there is a tear or stretch in the calf muscle. This type of injury can happen as a result of overstretching or a sudden movement, such as quickly accelerating during a sprint or jumping. It can also occur due to inadequate warm-up, poor flexibility, or muscle weakness.
The symptoms of a calf strain can include pain, swelling, bruising, and difficulty walking or standing. Depending on the severity of the strain, the pain can range from mild to severe, and individuals may experience tightness or a pulling sensation in the calf muscle.
Treatment for a calf strain typically involves rest, ice, compression, and elevation (RICE). This means avoiding activities that exacerbate the injury, applying ice to the affected area, using a compression bandage to reduce swelling, and elevating the leg to minimize pain and swelling. It's important to avoid putting weight on the injured leg and to refrain from activities that could further damage the muscle. This is in more severe cases.
Chiropractic will look at the mechanics of the feet, knees, hips, and back. Sometimes, the issue is somewhere else.
I see many of these and get great results 👍

Lower back spasms can be caused by various factors, including muscle strain or sprain, poor posture, lifting heavy objects, electrolyte imbalance, sudden movements, stress, lack of exercise, or underlying medical conditions like herniated discs or arthritis. Recently, I have seen so many lower back spasms, and it seems the change of weather is a possible cause. We generally move less in winter and eat more sugary and carb loaded foods like our caveman ancestors did. Also, stress is higher in winter. The cold weather creates more tension, teetering a pre loaded muscle spasm into fruition.
A spasm can cause severe sharp, pain that can cause us to feel something very serious is happening to our body. Some people go to A&E, some take medication, and some see people like ourselves, osteos, or physios for releif. A spasm can catch our breath too, waves of pain that can feel like you're being stabbed in the back. They key thing to remember is that it is just a spasm and will pass over days or weeks. If a spasm keeps reoccurring then it's normally a mechanical issue unless other symptoms are involved.
With an acute spasm, acupuncture is a great non invasive way to reduce the spasm along with controlled breathing while the needles are in. It's not painful and effective.
How can I make it better?
Beer (joke),
vodka? No
-keep moving, bed rest makes it worse, have a gentle 3 minute walk every hour
-ice it 20 minutes, 3x a day
-Find a comfortable sleep position and stay there if you can. Less sleep means more pain
-keep breathing, holding your breath, prolongs the spam
-self massage
-seek a professional if it's not easing 👍
Remember, it's just a spasm in most cases and is not that serious, but the brain will tell you differently.

Did you know that when you sprain your ankle, the risk of it reoccurring increases 75%? The ankle joints have nerve sensors that can damage our spacial awareness, leaving us susceptible to further ankle sprains. We first reduce the pain, then improve ankle mobility and then work on spacial awareness. I see a lot of runners with ankle sprains and it's always a pleasure getting them running again. Thats what it all about, giving people their normal back!

I'm a fearce motivator in getting people to move more. The majority of my patients are office workers. Shoulder, neck, back, headaches, and elbow pain are the most common complaints.
Research shows its the static posture and lack of movement that causes tension, not the type of posture we are in. BUT its not just that, office environments can be stressful, stress leads to poor sleep which in turn can create bad habits. Habits such as a poor diet, poor thinking patterns and low motivation.
This all sounds gloomy but the simple act of moving more during the day can make a big difference on all of the above.
We reccomend changing your position in the office chair every 20 minutes
Keeping well highdrated on water more than coffee or tea
Get up every 40 minutes for a micro-break
Have a hobby that involves running or weights or a competitive sport
Turning the brightness of your computer screen down
And aim for 8 hours sleep, swap late night Netflix with a book and you'll see a big difference
Stress causes many issues, especially prolonged stress, but if you have the tools you can beat it. 💪
