Pain relief is just a call away!
Beverly, age 60 , was referred to me by one of my existing clients, in urgent need of pain relief. She presented with aching hips, knees, shoulders……… practically everything hurt. She was also overweight , she slept dreadfully and reported being tired every day. This was despite Beverly having a personal trainer, an acupuncturist and a pilates instructor.
We began a physiotherapy pain relief program.
After just 3 sessions Beverly reported , for the first time in decades, no pain in her hips when cooking the family Sunday lunch. She said she was sleeping better and she had more energy. I am extremely pleased she reports feeling better during the day, as compared with feeling tired behind the wheel, like before. Many people suffer the same exhaustion Beverly came to me with. Sometimes it’s only when people actually fall asleep at the wheel , that they will go and get a sleep study or see a Doctor about their fatigue. Many people are using coffee, caffine drinks, cigarettes and alcohol, just to get them through each day. It is important to get the body into a more balanced state through Physiotherapy treatment before they reduce their caffeine. Otherwise some will litterally fall asleep at the wheel.
Now she feels clearer headed and experiences less pain over her whole body. She has now started walking to work. This is a 45 min walk. She has not attempted this for over a year. She has stopped needing to take daily anti inflamatory medication. I explained to her that , where there is pain, there is inflammation. My treatments work to interrupt the inflammation cycle her body has been in for decades. Through correct diet, better quality sleep, gentle exercise and a positive attitude, it is possible to help the body heal itself. I continue to treat her to relieve the stress that builds up working in the family run, fruit and vegetable business.
