Hello everyone, welcome to my first blog post, I know you are all very busy (especially at this time of year) so I’ll keep it short and sweet.
Yesterday (December 10th 2014), the BBC published an article stating that 50% of women in England and 43% of men are on prescription medication. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/health-30411246
Whilst younger people are less likely to be on any medications, 50% of those over 75 were on more than five different medications. Reading further into the article reveals that the most common medications are for blood pressure, cholesterol and antidepressants. I personally find it quite frightening how many people are on these medications. I have no end of patients inform me that their ‘cholesterol was borderline; so the GP has put me on medication anyway…’
At this point I could get onto a soap box and moan about the huge power the pharmaceutical industry holds over the medical profession and our National Health Service, but I promised to keep it short!
I could also link to articles that my Chiropractor friends are quoting about a study in the USA where patients under chiropractic use 53% less drugs than those not under care, but I am honest and open with my patients and this study is purely related to back pain and surgery not about other medications such as those for cardiovascular disease. It’s still fantastic news that we can help reduce the number of painkillers and likelihood of surgery for the majority of back pain sufferers but our patients already know that –it is why they come to see us and why they recommend us to friends and family.
So instead I’d like to remind you that your health is your responsibility, that the majority of medications can be avoided with a healthy diet and exercise. I know at this time of year there are plenty of parties and meals out to indulge in, that it is dark early; icy cold and windy so the thought of exercise is bleak. However, if you can get out for a walk over lunchtime then hopefully you will blow the cobwebs away, get some vitamin D if the sun makes an appearance and make your heart work harder which is the start of making it (and you) healthier. Don’t put it off to the New Year –start now and still enjoy everything over Christmas -just in moderation!
At the clinic we will be happy to answer any questions you have to address your diet and lifestyle, either ask your chiropractor in your next treatment session or join us for one of the spinal healthcare classes in the New Year –they are free and limited to small groups so that the chiropractor can answer questions. They need to be booked via reception, Wednesday 7th January 7pm, Thursday 22nd January 7pm and Tuesday 3rd February 7pm are all available to book now but we expect them to fill up quickly!
Enjoy the festivities and we look forward to helping keep you happy and healthy in 2015!
Sophie

One reason that the Web is such a great complement for all manner of heath and wellbeing services is that its structure promotes deep understandings of any topic. That structure is nonlinear, and, anybody’s experience will tell them that a lot of the time Web content that is really relevant somehow arrives against the odds — washing onto our screen from an ocean of content. We have resources like Google and other indexing tools to thank for the usability of such a massive range of materials. But the underlying structures and functions of the Web (inter-linking of sites, peer reviews, keywords and so forth) do indeed foster miraculous discoveries.
The Game of Health
Being healthy is fun! There is no reason that therapies and medical services should not tap into this inherent drive we all have to feel good — it is somewhat like playing the game of our bodily experience. Interestingly, online medical content was one of the first major types to incorporate gaming ideas into its presentations. The reason is that an engaging game of some sort can be used to convey vital information and help in more efficient ways that the old paper methods of research.
Actually, the entire Internet and WWW could be viewed (in the most favourable light) as the world’s largest ever health clinic. In this space, all kinds and second and third opinions (infinite perspectives, in truth) are accessible. A person using the Web to investigate any physical conditions and potential treatments take on the proactive role of being one’s own doctor, prior to contacting formal medical guidance and treatment.
That means that online resources assume the very human function of helping people deal with their most intimate physical realities — quite the opposite of the cold technology that those who do not use the Web might imagine.
Future of Human Health
The fact that the health concerns reflected by the Internet, social networks, forums, online wikis, databases, clinic listings and so forth all exist now, and are developing every day, bodes well for worldwide health-related institutions. Any health professional in practice today could be said to be better equipped and better informed than every before. Patients, too, are more knowledgeable and engaged with their own situations and treatments.
There are numerous unexpected boons emerging from Internet culture besides enriching content related to staying healthy. Various forms of medical aid, information and even charities for underprivileged groups are getting mobilised in the online space. For example, many outlets for entertainment and popular websites by high-profile companies often transmit valuable messages concerning health, or even contribute directly to world health organisations.
Charitable causes, for instance, are not unheard of as the focus of humanitarian efforts made by online casinos that wish to share their immense profits. The game sites listed by www.classycasinos.co.uk/paypal-casinos contain options for players who prefer to support pro-social campaigns through their entertainment budgets. This is just a single example of how unexpected corners of the online community are contributing to the emerging new paradigm of human health in this century.
