Relief from back pain?

 

Many people suffer with back pain, its the most common complaint that I see every day. Back pain can be broken into two sections, upper and lower.

Upper back pain

Posture and sometimes your occupation can have a detrimental effect to your upper back. The best therapy to treat this kind of pain is a back, neck and shoulder massage performed on an ergonomic massage chair. Reason being the chair opens up the neck and shoulder area and allows the therapist to target the problem areas, giving you the most benefit from your massage. Shoulder rotations and stretches can also be performed if appropriate.

Lower back pain

Lots of bending, stretching and twisting can cause problems for the lower back area. Also tight piriformis muscles and tight glutes can affect the lower back.

The best treatment for this is a back massage that concentrates on the lower back, piriformis muscles and glutes if required. This is best performed on a massage couch to enable maximum pressure and the use of elbows for trigger points if appropriate.

back pain

  • In 2006 I was involved in a car accident, and suffered with whiplash. The NHS refused treatment and physiotherapy even though I was having pain in my neck and back and having migraines at least once a week. I met Paula at a Pamper Evening in January and since then she has been coming to my home once a month. At first I thought I couldn't afford a massage once a month as I used to view it as a luxury rather than a necessity, but after doing the sums, I soon realised that I wasn't spending much more on a treatment compared to the money I was wasting on pain relief. Since Paula has been doing my treatment, I have only had one migraine and the pain I was feeling in my back and neck is minimal, she is friendly and professional and is always willing to accommodate me as much as possible.

  • I should like to recommend Paula Bailey of Tranquil Treatments as a skilled masseur. She is thorough in her treatment, assessing and talking through your personal health history. Her calm and reassuring approach makes the whole experience even more beneficial. What impressed me most was that she talked through things that I could do to relieve the problems I had at home. I would have no hesitation in referring anyone to Paula
