Adam Balding’s Testimonial For Kate

Kate has used a wide range of techniques including massage and stretches. As a result my muscles are much looser, my joints move much more freely and my range of motion and feeling of general well being has much improved. There has also been the added benefits of increased speed of recovery from injury enabling me to get back on the pitch quicker, pain relief from injury and improved warm up. Thanks Kate!

Chiropractic Awareness Week is This Week!

This year for Chiropractic Awareness Week the British Chiropractic Association is focusing on taking care of your back as parents/guardians.  We have some great advice on our Advice and Media page.  You can obtain this in handout format from our clinic reception – do pop in if you would like to pick one up.

To celebrate Chiropractic Awareness Week we are launching one or two competitions to win a free massage therapy session – to enter make sure you either like our facebook page, follow us on twitter or put a completed feedback form into our competition entry box at reception!
 
Lastly – keep an eye out for us in the local paper….! 

Putting Patients First – It’s What We Do

Providing excellence in patient care is, and has always been, at the heart of what we do at the Longlevens Chiropractic  Sports Injury clinic. To receive official recognition of this from the Royal College of Chiropractors, with Commendation, is fabulous and I am so proud of my dedicated and superb team.

PPQM – Patient Partnership Quality Mark – what does it mean?  Basically, we are a Chiropractic Healthcare clinic with a patient focused approach.  We work with you and actively involve you in your care, and tailor each treatment plan to suit each patient.  In doing so, we achieve excellence not only in our results (of fundamental importance, you will agree), but also in things like our clinic environment, our policies and procedure, the education and information we provide, and your confidentiality.

Putting Patients First will always be at the heart of what we do.  It forms one of the most crucial and basic values upon which Simon Rose built the strong reputation of our clinic, and to which our wonderful reception team works to.

We don’t, however, plan to sit back and bask in the glory of the award – we plan to improve continuously as much as we can.  This is why we are implementing a new feedback and suggestions scheme – let me know what you like best and least about the clinic, and what you would like to see change, and you will be entered into our prize draw to win a hot stone massage with Kate West!

Lastly but by no means least, as really he did steal the show at last week’s award ceremony, congratulations to Danny (and also to Mentor Simon Rose) on his prestigious and highly sought after award.  It was a close contest but deservedly won by Danny who has made an outstanding start to his Chiropractic career with us, and is very highly regarded among patients and professionals alike.

Kate’s Write Up of the Paralympics

What a fantastic yet exhausting week at the paralympics! The response for the massage was brilliant everyone kept coming back for more!

Most clients were media people carrying cameras all day long who were looking for relief for their shoulders.  Firstly I would ask them to take 3 deep breaths in to relax.  Then I started on their lower back to make sure they felt a release of tension all over the back, not just at the shoulders. Every person I saw had shoulders up by their ears with tension and the muscles that run parallel to the spine (Paraspinals) were solid too. I would use broad techniques with the palm of my hand to begin with to warm up the muscles, then move onto using my thumbs (butterfly technique) to increase the pressure to release tension. I then moved onto specific stretch technique, in which I apply pressure down into the muscle as the client stretches out the muscle that has been pinned by me. This is a fantastic technique that has instant results, however it is sometimes quite tender. I used this technique on the paraspinals, upper trapezius, and neck muscles with which you can see visible increases in range of movement of the cervical spine (neck) straight after the technique has been used.

The therapists I got to work with at the paralympics were fantastic, it was lovely to meet new faces and learn from other people. All in all it was a great experience and I even got to meet some famous faces!!

How to Receive 50% Off Your Next Treatment

Registered patients this is for you!  We can proudly state that most of our new patients are referred to us by existing patients, so this month we are offering you 50 % off your next treatment if you are already registered with us and you refer someone to us who registers during the month of August (by the way, that still counts if you yourself are a new patient to us in August!).

You can take us up on our half price offer on either massage therapy or chiropractic treatment, depending on which is more appropriate to you.  All that we ask is that you do this before the end of 2012.  And, you get 50% off your next treatment for each person that you refer during August, so if you refer two people then that’s two half price treatments in a row!

As is the norm, Terms and Conditions Apply.  If you would like to book in or if you have any queries then give us a call on 01452309372 or email contact@longlevenschiro.com

Mr G, Gloucester

“Tracey really listened to what my concerns/needs were, and then used her knowledge to explain how she would proceed, given all the information. Tracey makes you feel relaxed the moment you walk into the room. As she talks to you and prepares for your massage, you can tell she really has an interest in not only what’s going on with your body, but in whom you are. You find yourself feeling comfortably assured that you will be receiving a wonderful therapeutic experience.”She encourages me to be an active part in my own treatment by putting me to work with passive resistance stretches or offering me suggestions for moves I can do at home. She is open to ideas and interested to know what works for you. My weekly treatment has become a part of my life, some time for me, and my well being, its working!!…….. Thank you Tracey”
