People who should always have this checked: People who have, or have had whiplash; People who have, or have had concussion; People who have, or have had a car or bike accident or similar; People who take part in any sport where head impact occurs (boxing,…

An interesting read on many levels. I wonder how many magnetic ballast fluorescent tubes they use at the local school, and how many of the migraine sufferers that come to see me have luminaries, particularly the new LED’s which flicker! I will be asking the question. Handy tip for checking as well “If you can…

We’ve discussed before how various things can affect our musculoskeletal system – and how the true cause isn’t always what’s going on with the muscles themselves!

Your body knows what’s needed to heal. Along with all the structural techniques employed in sessions, intuition plays it’s part too.

Sometimes our dysfunctions are ever present, fizzing and popping just below the surface, the tiny little live wire, shouting loudest, grabbing all the attention. Sometimes they’ve been with us for a long time, they’re buried under multiple layers of dysfunction, and aren’t always easy to see or gain access to. Today, I am truly grateful…
