Dr Francesco leaving Back-in-Action

A message from Francesco. "I am sorry to have to let you know that I am leaving Back-in-Action this Christmas. I am planning on going travelling after which I intend to return to my home town in Italy to set up a clinic. I would like to wish you a very fond farewell and many thanks for trusting me with your care.

If you would like to see me for an appointment before I go on the 19th December you are very welcome. 

It has been excellent working at Back-in-Action and I am very grateful for the support they have given. I know they are doing their best to find somebody good to replace me. In the meantime do feel welcome to continue your chiropractic care with my colleagues Louis and Kamar."

To help ease the transition of your care, when you book an appointment, please schedule your first appointment for a 30-40 minute “Reassessment Visit”. (You will only be charged at the normal treatment rate for this extended appointment.)

"It will be hard to leave this clinic, it is a such friendly and relaxed environment and really professional at the same time. Everyone here is special and they quickly become like a family, but it is time for me to go back to where I belong, my home town in Italy."

Lower back and neck pain increase

A study by Eric Hurwitz et al argues that as the prevalence of lower back pain and neck  pain has increased by 18.7% over the last 10 years in the world, research and health-care efforts on prevention and therapy must be implemented more widely if we hope to compress morbidity in both absolute (fewer years lost due to functional health loss) and relative (lower ratio of years of functional health lost to life expectancy) terms .

How your body and brain work together to keep you healthy and out of pain

Your nerves are like muscles. Too little use and they fade away, too much use and you can damage them. The sensors in your joints and muscles send signals up to the brain, so the brain can build a map of your body. These signals also help the brain stay healthy. It's thought that that as much as 90% of the stimulus the brain receives in a day comes from the joints and muscles so good function in them is important for brain health. The amount of activity in your brain has a large impact on your muscle tone. If your brain isn't firing on all cylinders then the muscles around your joints won't be balanced properly, which can leave you more vulnerable to injury. The level of function of your brain also has a massive impact on your organs. 90% of the output from your brain is involved in the control of your organs, suggesting implications for level of brain function and general health.
