Think first of your spine.

BACK AND NECK PAIN HOW AND WHY DO WE TREAT IT

It is said that 80% of all problems in medical rooms has its origins in the loss of joint function. The boney structure of the spine, the vertebrae, are actually parts of joint function. A little movement of each allows us spinal flexibility.

The art, not the science of joint mobility is to recreate joint function. This allows blood to re-enter the area, muscles to expand and contract, and restoration of the autonomy of the nervous system, inflammation to facilitate rebuilding tissue, carrying in essential nutrients and carrying away waste. The time this takes for recovery depends on individual factors and is assessed individually during the first appointment. There is no such thing as a stressful situation – only our reaction to that situation.
