There is a time for Painkilling Relief and a Time to Manage Pain and Recovery.

Some of you may know that I have recently had to have major surgery, a bit of a traumatic time, in both mine and Jacqui’s life , we are grateful to all our family and friends, that have been with us through all this and for the Doctors and Nurses that were there for me .

Being the patient rather than the therapist, helping others recover has been odd, as any of my therapist fiends will tell you we are not the best of patients ourselves, I would like to share some of my journey with you in the hope that it can be of help to others.

I have been using the Sigma Q technology in my practice for over thirteen years, from early day to where it is today.

During all this time I have witnessed excellent clinical outcomes, patients lifted out of chronic pain from long term trauma related injuries,

Their depression lifted and fresh hope for quality of life that had eluded them for long periods of time , the joy of seeing them being able to cut down and eventually stop their need for pain killing pharmacological intervention.

For them to enjoy pain free movement, seeing them return to their employment or sport and add value to society, For me it sometimes feels like it is beyond any words in the whole vocabulary.

Being a Neuromuscular Injury Therapist for 30 years, I have always had the strong desire to study, to achieve greater knowledge of anatomy, physiology and neurology.

I have always felt the need to further my skills, so I may enhance good clinical interventions and outcomes for my patients.

Using techniques in massage, Neuromuscular manipulation, along with the combination of Bioneuro sigma Q technology intervention, aids motor neuron ,Neuropeptide and Neuroendocrine stimulation.

I aspire daily to work for all my patients to gain good clinical outcomes and restoration from the pathologies they present to me with.

Looking at my patient bank that has mounted over the years, evidence is what you can see and what you know to be true , people want quality of life , Bioneuro Sigma Q technology is vital in my book for society in general, training, learning is continuous and it drives me to achieve .

Some months ago I was diagnosed with a cancerous tumour on my right kidney, at this stage I would like to thank once again the surgeons, nurses and staff at the Norfolk and Norwich Hospital, first for finding it and acting on it so quickly and the care I was given while being treated there, I underwent excessively invasive surgery and had 20% of my right kidney removed.

Following surgery I was given morphine for pain relief as it seemed at the time that it was intense and horrific. I had Robotic surgery, although it is more precise, the bruising was considerable, when I was able to start my slow and steady rehabilitation program, I started to get back to enjoying the benefits of The Bioneuro.

To aid with forming of the deep scar tissue that affects the Fascia, although the outer scars are still very evident , the inner scar tissue is pliable, healing has had it’s own related issues and the journey has had its ups and downs, trigger points have been an evident problem to deal with.

As the muscles have been recovering the multifidus, psoas and minimal gluteal muscles have been the to say the least uncooperative in their functional ability at times , thankfully I have been in the position, with the help form Jacqui and using the Bioneuro Sigma Q to deal with them effectively.

The positive news is, I am cancer free they managed to remove all the tumor as it was what they called Encapsulated so it had not had any chance to spread.

I am not on painkillers, I have improved pain free movement, able to work and look after my patients, I am a an Injury Therapist, it is my passion and I love my work, the human bodies ability to heal itself with the right sort of help has been more of an eye opener for me alter becoming the patient myself needing the aid of the Bioneuro Sigma Q , in combination with manipulation and massage.

I now more than ever understand, why it has become an integral part of what I do, Yes the Morphine and painkilling relief had it’s place at the beginning of my journey and was right for that time , but to be on that sort of medication for long period surely can not be right, the body needs to heal and it needs help to do this, for me Bioneuro Sigma Q and Neuromuscular manipulation helped to move my body further along in that journey and physical recovery, without the need to have constant medication, being able to get out and enjoy time with friends and family without being in pain, My prayer is the best is yet to come .

What A Year, but we are back in business to help our clients be the best they can be!!

Folks we are pleased to say that after a difficult year for everyone .

WE ARE BACK

We are here for our clients, ready to roll and get them being

THE BEST THEY CAN BE

During this difficult time we have all had to make changes, for us it was adapting to all the new Covid Rules.

So what better way than to strip out the Treatment Room give it a deep clean, walls, ceiling, floor, if it was there it was cleaned, then a face lift new cabinets and painting bookshelves . things we could not do while we were busy.

During this difficult time we have all had to make changes, for us it was adapting to all the New Covid Rules.

It was hard work, as the standards Broadland Council set are very high, but it is worth it we will keep up these standards knowing we will be keeping our clients safe while they are in our care.

Making everything COVID SAFE was the most important thing so our clients could come to us with the confidence and knowledge, that we were taking all the steps we could to protect them.

It was logical to work with Broadland council to make sure that we were getting it right.

AND WE DID

We are pleased to say we have passed our Broadland Council Covid Safety Checks with Flying Colours and Awarded our Covid Safety Certificate .

During this last year we know how hard it has been for some of our clients, we do understand the difficulties, even more so we empathise with them.

Steve had to go into hospital for surgery himself, understanding how surgery affects a person physically, physiologically and psychologically are subjects we will be talking about, along with the need for the right support and care to have a better recovery outcome.

The Bioneuro Therapy System Sigma Q (ΣQ®) Diagnostic Roller & The Pain Pathways

The Bioneuro Therapy System Sigma Q (ΣQ®) Diagnostic Roller, is a very valuable Diagnostic tool it is used to locate the areas of nerve dysfunction in the muscle groups of the body, where for what ever reason the muscle group is not firing, people call them” Hot spots, trigger points, knots,” what ever they are called the fact is that the Neuro messages /signals are not getting through and for muscles to function correctly, these messages need to get through.

These messengers or for their correct name Neurotransmitters react to aid functions of muscle, these are a type of chemical messenger which transmit signals across a chemical Synapse (this is the Junctions between two nerve cells, such as a Neuromuscular junction, from one Motor neuron (or nerve cell to another nerve cell ) or another Motor neuron, or to a target neuron in the muscle cell, or gland cell.

When this process is disrupted and the signals do not get through, function, and ability of muscles to work with pain free movement becomes difficult.

So how does the Roller do its job to such a degree ?

The answer It is all about targeting those NOCICEPTIVE PAIN POINTS

We know

that Neuropathic pain is caused by damage to the neurons that are involved in the pain signalling pathways in the nervous system and nerves react to static when they are not firing correctly,

Nociceptors are the sensors of the Pain Pathway, these receptors are in every tissue of the body except the brain, when injury occurs Nociceptors are activated and chemical are released such as prostaglandins kinins and potassium ions , these then stimulate the Nociceptors,

Pain can persist even after these pain producing stimulus have been removed, because these chemicals linger and the Nociceptors do not adapt very quickly once activated.

This can cause prolonged muscle contraction muscle spasms even Ischaemia ( this is inadequate blood flow to muscles or organs.)

So by using Nociception, to follow the Pain Pathway back, through the sensory nerve cells called Nociceptors, that in turn produce the signal that travels along a chain of nerve fibres via the spinal cord to the brain and the Nociceptors that are affecting the nerves, that are creating the obstructions, which sense and respond to parts of the body which have suffered from damage.

With the aid of the Roller tool and the ability of the Bioneuro Sigma Q, we can find the exact location of the dysfunction created by the trauma pathology.

Accidents and Trauma Happen !!!

Accidents and trauma happen, but with a deep soft tissue injury, it can take in some cases, as long as a broken bone to heal.

When a client comes to our clinic, getting into the deep tissue to help with restoration and recovery is the most important thing, to help reduce the healing time and need for medication, so they can get back to their lives.

Jess had taken a rather bad fall down a flight of steps, thankfully nothing was broken, but the soft tissue damage was so great both A&E and her own GP said she would be looking at a good 3 months before getting back to normal. as a nursing assistant Jess was so upset because of the impact this would have on her job.

Steve had already been treating her brother for a back injury, he advised her to come to see Steve in the hope that Steve could help.

He did and while having treatment with Steve Jess reduced the need for pain medication and she is off the crutches, 3 weeks into the treatment sessions and Jess was looking to start back at work.

We use the Bioneuro along with Neuromuscular Techniques to achieve a good clinical outcome.

Jess sent us some before and after photos after her last treatment, along with this message

“Steve is incredible, I fell over a few weeks ago causing trauma to my foot and ankle and I was left on crutches, after a couple sessions Steve got the swelling down and more movement in my toes, where I could weight bare and only use one crutch. A couple more sessions and I just know I’ll finally be able to go back to work as a nursing assistant. Not only does he help people get better, he’s just a really lovely and friendly guy which makes the experience all that much better and relaxing.

I would recommend Steve to anyone!!!”

Chronic pain in my back till I went to Getfitstayfit Norfolk

Our Clients are very important to us, seeing them recovering from injury, watching them improve with Rehabilitation Massage, Neuromuscular Techniques and improving in a shorter period of time with the use of The Bioneuro, reducing the need for pharmacological input, in other words seeing them Get Better.

Its great to achieve this and it is our goal with all our clients, I know it does not work out for a few people, but not many and I know we do have some great results, so when we received this email from Christine, a lovely lady and pleased to be have as one of our clients, she was not in a great way when she first came to us, we asked her if we could share the email.

Because this is what we are all about to try to do the best we can for our clients so they can be the best they can, her words say it all

Dear Steve

Just to let you know how everyone is amazed at the difference in me since I began my treatment with you about six weeks ago.

I have suffered with chronic pain for 39 years following a hysterectomy, and having opiates of varying kinds for all this time with injections into the spine and nerves being burnt out, all under the Pain Clinic.

Five years ago after having lots of treatment by a Rheumatologist for treatments in my shoulders, hands etc, he finally sent me to a spinal surgeon for the continuing chronic pain in my back and legs and a Trendelburg gait which made we walk like an old woman. An MRI shew severe spinal stenosis and an operation was performed to remove excess bone down my spine.

This made no difference so a lumbar decompression with instrumentation was performed to stabilise my spine. unfortunately this was unsuccessful in alleviating my pain and life just continued to deteriorate with myself being unable to walk any distance and feeling life was virtually finished for me – I was desperate, at times wishing I did not have to wake up.

A friend told me about you and I was reluctant to consider seeing you as I had seen physios, chiropractors and acupuncturists and masseurs , all to no avail.

Well, I am this week walking my dog, going to the city and feeling so much better. I am now on half dose of my Tramadol, decreasing to 25.% next week. I cannot wait to see the difference with more treatments. I am so thankful to God for using you to help me start living again.

I know that I cannot be cured and will always have an element of pain, but to know that I can begin now to see some light at the end of the long dark tunnel I have been in, fills me with hope for the future. It is indeed wonderful not to be in excruciating pain and muscle spasms.

Once again Steve, a big thank you for the wonderful care you have shown to me.

God Bless

Christine

Could Massage Boost Your Immune System? “Of Course It Can”

While watching the TV program “Trust Me I’m A Doctor” my ears pricked up and really wanted to know about one of the sections in the program.

Could massage boost your immune system?

He went on to say “Massage is one of the oldest therapies in existence.”

Well we already knew that one , but guess what, they should have replaced the words.

“Could Massage with the words Massage does “

It seems that General Medicine has taken it’s time to catch up with us Massage Therapist.

When you have a patient that comes to you after an injury and you work on them using massage, you notice the difference, you are spending time with them, you notice them healing.

We know that restoring them back to fitness is the aim.

We know Massage releases the “feel good factor” and there is a reason for that it is not all about just relaxing, massage helps release Endorphins and Dopamine, it is the physical input that the therapist applies to the patient and how it is applied that makes the difference.

In the program they next , teamed up with Professor Fulvio D’Acquisto, an immunologist from the University of Roehampton and the Bodyology Massage School, to show a basic trial

Professor Fulvio had come across research which had found that massage boosted the number of white blood cells, the main interest in this case being in the “T cells, a certain type of white blood cell” and the reaction and results to massage, for patients suffering from HIV, this a disease that causes a reduction in the white blood cells known as T Lymphocytes.(I have added the link to the HIV Study.) there is so much to look at and take in that the links are worth a read to put things in perspective.

There were two different types of T Cells, helper cells (CD4 T Cells and Cytotoxic or CD8 killer cells, that they were mainly of interested in the study.

T cells are matured in the Thymus,(Hence the name T Cells) this is an organ situated under the breastbone, that does most of it’s work when we are children, before puberty it then turns into fatty tissue, but T cells are originally produced in the bone marrow, they later move to the Thymus, then when they have matured and the Thymus changes, they are on the move again, they then migrate to the lymph nodes (these are groups of immune system cells) throughout the body, where they work to aid the immune system in fighting disease, clever hardworking little guys these T Cells.

There are also Effector cells and Memory T cells these may be either CD4+ or CD8 but work differently ( I have also added a link on T Cells to give a bit more information)

Taking blood samples from Volunteers, before and after massage, so they could do a T cell count this is a blood test that measures the number of T cells in your body. A T cell is a type of white blood cell they then analysed the blood test, for the number of T Lymphocytes present, this became the baseline reading, they then checked them again, comparing the baseline results, to the results after an hour’s massage.

This showed a 70 per cent boost in white blood cells after massage.

This was also a higher reading than they had from the volunteers simply relaxing, the other factor evident, was that in the group that had the massage, their T Cells remained higher after the test.

As T-lymphocytes perform a wide array of functions in the body involved with growth and repair, both the Killer and Helper Cells, when “Thymosin: The Hormone of the Thymus is released,” this will help the killer Cells to destroy any bugs in the system, while the helper cells will then go on to then build up the immune system.

This has been of great interest to both myself when using the Bioneuro because of it’s ability to be used during massage and how it effectively preforms in boosting recovery, along with its ability to enhance Massage and Neuromuscular Therapy techniques used when treating a patient and the team at Biosysco in further developments of The Bioneuro.

We all love to have good results

I know we all love good results and not just our team on the football field, I mean in our business and a good result can make your week

The day started off with a client that I have had for a while they came to me with a sever back injury, having gone back for their NHS assessment to be told by the Physiotherapist that.

” The treatment they were getting with myself and the use of the Bioneuro has made a significant difference to their recovery in an incredibly short space of time “.

Then from a clients wife a message he is a Iron-man competitor and triathlete

she just wanted to say “Thanks for fixing her husband. He completed Vichy iron-man in 12:32:58 his best iron-man time so far.

Then just to top it all a client that had been trying to get a MRI scan with not much success asked me to send a letter to her GP to see if would help, I explained in the letter my finding with the “Bioneuro Assessment tool”, they have now agreed with letting her have the MRI

It is great to achieve goals, especially when it means that someone else also is,

recovering or finally getting the help that they need.

Professional Dancing can take it’s toll

A lot of us like musicals and lets face it there are some brilliant ones out there.

Here at Getfitstayfit Norfolk we have had the pleasure of looking after a few Professional Dancers, but one young man, that has played the lead, in that of Grease ,Top Hat and Singing In The Rain, came to us with an injury that needed quite a bit of treatment, but had a great positive clinical outcome.

All the parts he has been playing were very physical parts, as a dancer these parts drew on all of Alex’s physical strength, he could not afford to be in pain or have an injury, to do Top Hat he had to be in Top Condition.

Alex came to us back in 2017 after an injury causing Muscle Damage, to his lower back , sustained while playing his other passion, but due to his work commitments, was going to be his last game of Rugby.

Alex responded very well to treatment with the Bioneuro massage and Neuromuscular therapy techniques, he was soon back on form and taking on his lead part in Grease.

Also he wanted to know how he could help himself and his body more, he needed to be able to sustain Fluid Motion, he was a very good student and has been working hard to keep himself in great condition.

Unfortunately Alex had a bit of a set back at the beginning of 2018, after a very busy year, but we dealt with it quickly and Alex was back on course again, this time the lead in, Singing In The Rain.

In my years of treating Musculoskeletal injuries, I have learnt, that one size does not fit all, I adapt what I do so I can do the best for the patient and the injury.

It would be no use giving just standard exercises to someone like Alex, dancers are already very fit and exercise all their muscles, you have to have a different approach to their injuries, it has to be targeted, by using Neuromuscular techniques along with the Bioneuro, allowed me to get into the deep muscle tissue/ fascia in the area that the injury had occurred, concentrating on the rehabilitation after the recovery and using Alex’s own ability as a dancer, to teach him to target his own muscles groups, allows him to keep on top of things and to avoid further injury.

Please have a look at Alex’s video to find out a lot more.

His first words to me were” Can we do this ? I work off shore and want to get back”

I don’t think I will ever regret what I do for a living, I love my job seeing people, Getting Back to Fitness And Being The Best They Can

Then you see some people that are just incredible, their determination, drive and need to Get Back to how they were is overpowering.

Charlie is one such person he came to me Mid March after receiving a phone call from his brother, explaining the situation.

Charlie had a very bad accident the previous December, seeing the X-rays of his injury I thought how much work his surgeon, had done to get this far And the effort,. Charlie had put in to even be able to stand let alone shuffle.

His first words to me were” Can we do this I work off shore and want to get back”

I went on to treat Charlie with the Bioneuro and massage, getting him prepared for his back to work interview with his employers, whom did not expect him back possibly till December 2019, only then the possibility of light duties certainty not back to off shore work .

Well just recently Charlie had an interview with his employers, we still have some work to do but the progress has been amazing and with no need for painkilling medication.

Charlie sent me an email, with outcome.

Hi Steve

While working on a ship early December 2017 in the North Sea in extremely rough weather, I was thrown across the deck.

I had to be taken into hospital with a bad back injury, turns out I had crushed vertebrae, I had to have spinal compression surgery (my nerves were trapped between the discs ) I was told there was every possibility, I may not walk again.

After the surgery I had very limited movement in my Legs, feet and toes, I was put onto a course of physiotherapy, it was working, but very slowly but it got me up onto a frame walking, but it was hard and really slow, in January I was still in a wheel chair.

February came and I had progressed to a walking frame by mid March I had advanced to two sticks, but with the shuffle and hard to put one foot in front of the other and still wobbly.

While talking to my brother he told me about, him having treatment with Getfitstayfit Norfolk and a thing called Bioneuro therapy, which I had never heard of.

I spoke to my physiotherapist and she had not heard of it, I then spoke to my consultant, at the Norfolk and Norwich hospital and he had not heard about it either.

My brother convinced me to make an appointment to meet Steve and have a consultation with him, to see if this Bioneuro therapy would work.

I first arrived on the 21st March still on two sticks, by mid April I was on one stick

Here we are two months down the road I am not using the sticks, I am going back to work on light duties towards Mid June .

Then hopefully within a short period I will be back to work full time and back off shore, this treatment has really made a difference, the possibilities for anyone who’s had spinal compression surgery or suffered with similar problem as myself.

I can’t thank Steve and his Bioneuro and massage treatment, enough for what he’s done for me.

Many Thanks

Charlie.

Low Back Pain and what it means to you

A series of papers, due to a long term trial and study have been published in the Lancet.

They make interesting and worrying reading, asking the worldwide medical profession to stop offering ineffective and potentially harmful treatments and NICE is agreeing with them

Such as Strong drugs, injections and surgery they are generally overkill, they say, with limited evidence that they help.

People may have seen the article on the BBC “Many back pain patients are ‘getting wrong care” if you want to have a look

The truth of the matter is, in a lot of cases they are getting the wrong care.

What we need to look at is.

“Painkillers mask pain they do not heal the damaged area, also Painkillers WILL NOT speed up your recovery

In most cases they don’t help as we think they should, but because the Doctors give them to you and the advertisers say they do, then we believe that it is the right thing to do, when your in pain with your back you may not want to hear that, Your back is stronger than you may imagine , your spine is very strong and it is not easily damaged.

Most back pain is best managed by keeping active

Remember that good exercise and activity, choose the right sort of activity for you and build on it, this can reduce and prevent back pain.

In most cases people have strained muscles in the back, that in itself is painful, the lower back muscles, consisting of your Extensor, Flexor and your Oblique muscles ,

Low back pain can feel very debilitating, when you feel in pain, you do not want to keep active and do exercise, but you need to Avoid bed rest and get moving but keep it gentle, at the same time please avoid aggravating activities, no digging the garden you need to use the principles of kinetic movement when bending or lifting, in a way that is comfortable for you, using the hips and knees.

People talk about “Slipped Discs” this terminology is BAD, your discs Do not slip, they can however Herniate and there is treatment that can help with that.

The thoracic spine is the longest region of the spine, it is also the most complex.

It connects your cervical spine above to the lumbar spine below, the thoracic spine runs from the base of your neck down to your abdomen and It is the only spinal region that is attached to your rib cage. The type of pain in this region, is upper back pain, it is most commonly caused by muscle irritation or tension, a lot of you may have heard the term myofascial pain, in most cases this is caused mainly by poor posture, often bad workplace seating affecting , forward head posture, or any type of irritation of the large back and shoulder muscles, again muscle strain or spasms are an issue.

Then we have to consider Joint dysfunction. In the Thoracic spinal joints, this can become very painful in various ways, from cartilage tears and disc degeneration , developing in the facet joints where adjacent thoracic vertebrae articulate with each other.

It is also possible for a rib to become misaligned or displaced from the vertebrae, this is a case of a tissues muscular injury becoming a structural injury, or even facet joint degeneration (osteoarthritis) and degenerative disc disease can happen at the same time, for these sorts of issues you would need to talk to your Doctor who would more than likely need further confirmation with a scan.

It is that step between being in pain and feeling terrible, to feeling that you can cope, then going on to feeling better.

This is the area that we here at Getfitstayfit Norfolk aim to address , getting from that point of being in so much pain, that you do not want to do anything and feeling that you need to take pain killers, only to find either none or minimal sort term relief, so you take more pain killers and do less.

The cycle starts and that is the cycle we need to break or even prevent. You need to be able to get good quality sleep, if you can, because it will help you feel better overall one of the main things most of our patient’s tell us is that they have not been able to sleep, one thing they also tell us after treatment is that they have slept, this means a lot as it is the first stage of recovery.

We know that Massage can help with low back pain, along with spinal manipulation , here at Getfitstayfit Norfolk we also use the Bioneuro, unlike a Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Simulation (TENS) that is digital. the Bioneuro is Analogue and works with the bodies natural ability to heal. it is none invasive, but can get into those muscles quicker and deeper to aid in recovery .

You also need to look at the root cause of the injury.

Is it poor posture
Is it seating position on a work place chair
Have you not used kinetic lifting when lifting something heavy.
Have you overstretched
Have you be overdoing it in the garden or while doing DIY
Are you doing exercises wrong, or an injury while playing sports
Have you had an accident ,that may have long term implications.

Any of these things can be the cause , there are also other factors that we can look at, like a herniated disc or in some cases disc degeneration, we can work with your Doctor on a plan to help with these issues.

What ever the reason, getting you to pain free movement, is the first step and in some cases it is all about baby steps, we work with you at your pace.

To Get You To Be The Best You Can Be.

Don’t wait, as a Soft Tissue Injury can be as debilitating as a broken bone.

We have all done it, twisted funny and hurt our back or shoulder or even the neck. I have heard so many times people say,

” I thought if I just took some pain killers and rested it would go away I have been too busy to deal with it “ or “I didn’t want to make a fuss, you just get on with it after all, the worst I have done is pulled a muscle, but it is just getting worse.”

I have also heard the statement ” I have done exercises, but they make it worse”. The Fact Is Yes you CAN make it worse, if you have trigger points through tension on an injury point, exercise will aggravate it Trigger Points need to be dealt with. So you can exercise productively

A Soft Tissue Injury can be as debilitating as a broken bone, So Please Do Not Underestimate The Damage that you may have done.

Then after a week or so, it is not getting better and more things hurt, you can’t lift something without it hurting, it is affecting your sleep and if it’s you shoulder or neck you are staring getting headaches.

You need to deal with it “THE LONGER YOU WAIT THE LONGER IT TAKES TO HEAL”

I am a great believer in helping my clients to get back to fitness ASAP , having a good clinical outcome for them , not having them in pain and it dragging on and on.

A message from Dawn

“As a Taxi Driver My Back was totally immobile, Steve has made such a difference , but don’t wait till your in agony “

And From Jerry

Myself and my family are indebted to Steve, I have to work long hours for my business and this wouldn’t be possible without Steve’s treatments help and support , also love my Golf, when I do get some spare time I love to play, back issues were making this so difficult, I could not get a good swing, so not a good round of Golf it was frustrating , being pain free was so important to my work, home and relaxation, I can now enjoy the game again and get on with my work also enjoy time with the family .

Thank you Steve
