Introducing: Survival Guide to Your Home

Dr. Mikas first book has been released!

     This book was born out of necessity. Dr. Mika (D.C.) realised after 10 years in practice that most people cause themselves injury in their familiar surroundings and in their daily home activities. Until now, there has been no "users manual" for the human body.  Dr. Mika (D.C.) set out to change all of that and wrote a book that contains 10 years worth of tried and tested practical tips on how to change your daily activites from harmful to helpful. And it's easier than you think.  

     This book will teach you the basic fundamentals of posture and movement, and you will learn to apply them in your home setting. By applying these principles you can engineer your movement patterns into health promoting rather than injury producing - it's time to become resilient and injury proof. 

     Dr. Mika (D.C.) is a long standing advocate of the role of the patient in their own recovery and healing process and this book is designed to put you, the patient, firmly in the drivers seat where you are able to recognise harmful movement patterns and amend them before causing a set back in your healing process. Equally this book will benefit people who are not currently sufferering with problems with their back or other joints as it endeavors to establish good movement patterns that will prevent injury in the future.

     Dr. Mika (D.C.) runs regular Movement Workshops that are free of charge so that people can gain better understanding of the importance of movement and to further help people move more confidently and correctly, even in their advanced age. To equire about the movement workshops, please get in touch with us at the clinic either via email or telephone.

     You can purchase this book, "Survival Guide to Your Home" either directly from us at the clinic, or via Amazon kindle. The cost is £6.99 from us at the clinic.

Are You Suffering From Back Pain?

Join hundreds of our happy clients who have received back pain relief and regained control over their lives without the dangers of Prescription Drugs or Surgery.

Most people suffer from back pain at some point in their lives. This is one of the most commonly suffered ailments of the modern day, yet at the same time very badly understood by the sufferers and various doctors and therapists alike. Not a day goes by when we do not hear a patient refer to their problem as ‘sciatica’ – ‘lumbago’ - ‘slipped disc’ or the like. Whilst these terms may refer to the type of symptoms, they are too vague to be a diagnosis. One person’s sciatic problem may be due to completely different reasons than the next persons. So it is best to explore the true cause of the problem, then explain this to the patient in a way they can understand.

At the end of the day, the human body is a logical and simple unit. It works according to A LOGIC, not necessarily your logic, but a logic nevertheless. It is a construction of mechanics, electrics and plumbing, and responds to laws of physics just the same as any building or a vehicle would. Therefore there is no need to overcomplicate things when it comes to treating back problems. In order to find lasting benefit, the true faulty part must be identified, corrected, and then taken through the time of recovery and healing with appropriate re-education measures. AND THAT'S IT!

And the best and proven way to do that is Chiropractic Adjustment.

Here is How We Help Relieve Your Back Pain using Three Step Proven Process:

STEP1: Identifying the faulty part

In order to accurately diagnose the problem causing back pain you must always ask another WHY? This is how:

My back hurts here. Why? The muscle is in spasm. Why? It is being constantly irritated. Why? It is forced into constant contraction to protect a joint. Why? The joint has been sprained or overloaded and is not functioning normally. Why? Because the loading is uneven from one side of the body to the other. Why? Because the legs are of different length. Why? Because the pelvis is rotated and muscles are in a state of imbalance. Why? Because your general posture is not helping, there is lack of flexibility in the legs, you carry a number of old injuries which have never fully healed, your diet may be adding to your overall health problem, and the stress of your condition is taking its toll.

What started off as a sharp pain in the back, after a bit of detective work was revealed to have roots much deeper than what is immediately visible in the form of obvious symptoms. This is why our chiropractors at Shepperton Chiropractic Clinic take extra care during patient history and examination. We need to know about the car accidents as well as the old ankle injury 'that is probably not relevant', we need to know about your desk setup at work, how many pillows you have under your head when sleeping, your exercise habits, as well as any other little bit of information that may seem trivial, but can help us find the root cause and provide the most effective treatment.

STEP2: Correcting The Fault

There are lots of different ways to treat the back. They range from massage and heat pack to surgery, stretching to strengthening, and medication to manipulation. Of course there is no single gold-standard treatment for back pain, and patients may find good results with one or a combination of different therapeutic approaches. The selection of treatment is heavily dependent on the diagnosis, and great care must be taken to reach a correct diagnosis.

As most back problems can be attributed to mechanical causes - a mechanical correction is the logical choice. When dealing with mechanical back pain, chemical agents (such as pain killers and anti-inflammatories) tend to not work very well. The pain killers may reduce the symptoms for a time, yet as soon as the effects wear off the pain returns. Mechanical treatments get to the root of the problem (not Nurofen fast relief gel) and physically change the way the body is moving and working. As the mechanics are restored to normal, there is no need for symptoms.

Our chiropractors at Shepperton Chiropractic Clinic are experienced in treating back pain brought on by various different causes. We take care to trace the problem to its origin and to be specific with all our treatment. Our chiropractors are trained in a number of techniques and are able to find the correct approach to suit your individual needs, ensuring maximum patient comfort in the process. Spinal manipulation has been found to be effective in both the short as well as the long term in treatment of back pain, and it is now recognised and recommended by NICE guidelines.

STEP 3: Re-educating the body and the brain

After correcting the imminent problem and reducing the symptoms (a.k.a. back pain) it is time to look ahead - how can future occurrences be prevented. For those who have had a mild version of back pain, this may not seem a very important concern, but those who have suffered a severe episode of back pain prevention is a very attractive option. Let's face it - there is no bullet proof way of ensuring that you will never ever suffer with your back again, but is possible to reduce the likelihood of recurrence as well as the severity of any future back pain episode significantly.

The key term in the re-education phase is functional rehabilitation. Emphasis on the word functional. This may include stabilisation exercises, balance exercises, stretches and range of motion exercises, strengthening exercises, postural exercises, ergonomics, dietary overhaul, stress coping mechanisms, even things as seemingly simple as learning to breathe and to sleep correctly. Why is all this necessary? In order to ensure appropriate functioning of each and every part of your body for as great a proportion of time as possible. Treating the body as a whole is of fundamental importance. To ensure good functioning of your back, the work load must be evenly distributed between all body parts, including the arms and legs. For example, insufficient mobility in the legs is a very common problem, and leads to increased work load on the lower back causing it to become painful over time and unless the issues in the legs are resolved, there is no long term cure from back pain.

Why Us?

At Shepperton Chiropractic Clinic our goal is to have each and every patient become an active part of their recovery and learn how to manage their back. We spend time with our patients teaching them rehabilitation, ergonomics, reviewing their nutritional needs and exercise programmes. Our chiropractors are extensively trained in recognising the dysfunctions in your extremities and are constantly updating their knowledge and the technical skills in treating them. They are also able to prescribe and teach the appropriate rehabilitation exercises that will give you the most benefit and help you re-build your back.
