Why you should see a Chiropractor now!

Lymington - A Chiro 'centre of excellence'!

It has taken me a shameful length of time to respond to the generosity of two very special people in Lymington and I hope this article goes some way to repaying their kindness. In the first instance Dr. Stephanie Glen at The Lymington Chiropractic Clinic and then Clive Maynard at New Street Chiropractic.

Some months ago Stephanie not only treated me to a full Chiropractic session with one of her very knowledgeable and appealing Doctors, but also subsequently spent time with me as well explaining what Chiropractic is and how it benefits people. More recently I also spent some time with Clive Maynard in New Street who also substantiated much of what Stephanie had educated me on and also graciously took me through this 'myth-ridden' world which so many of us are completely naive about.

Although it's no excuse for my writer's block and the length of time I needed to be able to focus on the subject and write something relevant and meaningful, as some conselation, I have been reading up about the subject over the summer and building my appreciation of what these extremely erstwhile professionals actually do for us.

I've been fairly lucky and have not experienced severe back pain or in fact any joint related pain during my life so far, but what I have gleaned from my conversations with Stephanie and Clive and further reading, is that the writing is on the wall for the future if I don't seriously consider how my lifestyle, activites and posture will inevitably affect the quality and longevity of my spine especially, not to mention my general wellbeing which could be exascerbated by anything which could prevent me from staying fit and healthy.

If I can achieve anything within this article, I would hope that it is to dispell the misconception that Chiropractic is some trendy alternative medicine and that the Practitioners are the modern day equivalent of the elixir salesmen. These guys are seriously qualified, with at least seven years of training totally focused on their specialist subject. This equates to medical training for Doctors whose subject range is of course vast. That must speak volumes about the validity of the profession but still sadly, until people actually visit a Chiropractor, they are often not appreciative of this.

Dr. Stephanie Glen at the Lymington Clinic of Chiropractic & Comlimentary Medicine is a sparkly and appealing person whose style is warm, tender and underpinned by over 21 years in the profession. Assuming she's still talking to me, I can thoroughly recommend anyone to go for an initial consulation which is at the very least an uplifting and informative experience. There is also a good chance that Stephanie may save you from yourself by arresting any problems now before it is too late and helping you ensure that you have the kind of healthy future you deserve.

Clive Maynard is a no-nonsense, likeable expert, especially in sports related injuries, having worked with top Football Clubs and other successful sportsmen and women. Clive is now using the very latest advanced computerised facilites from the US, to look after his patients and some of the sophisticated machinery one might expect to see only in the US or Harley Street. Clive has this available right here in Lymington.

Whichever you choose, I urge you to have at least a first consultation and explore the subject more closely. Being from a medical family myself, I know that Chiropractors are held in the highest esteem and whilst the NHS and GP's are within a system which favours physio first, it does seem logical to deal with the source of the problem first rather than the symptoms after the fact.

The British Chiropractic Association has a great document explaing Chiropractic in more detail, or you can visit either Clive or Stephanie's websites and find out more there. Alternatively, just give them a call, they'd love to hear from you.
