Weight, weigh in’s, trackers, meetings and weight loss programmes – it’s a heavy weight issue which is bound to ruffle some feathers …. but I can’t believe in this day and age so many of us are weighing ourselves, either at home or part of some programme, and using this single figure to extrapolate how…

A client returned to clinic after taking on and assimilating the corrections from the last session. Happy days 🤩 Today as part of their treatment plan we were looking at the long kinetic chains and using perturbation tests to do that.

Client presented in clinic with a deep aching pain in their left hip, all muscles around the hip and thigh tested weak.
