The Symptoms You Could Be Experiencing

Migraines & Headaches 

We understand how distracting, uncomfortable, and potentially concerning these symptoms can be; they’re debilitating, so what are some symptoms you should look out for? Pain in the head and around the brain, tightness in your muscles, tiredness, dizzy spells, and vision problems. Migraines can also cause frequent sharp and depleting pain across the head. 

Neck Pain 

Neck pain can be an incredibly difficult and debilitating experience. It can range in severity from a mild ache to an agonising spasm. Often, it is accompanied by tightness in the shoulders, stiffness across the back of the neck, headache, or even radiating pain down the arms and fingers. Your neck is crucially important, and treatment of neck pain is even more so. 

Spinal Issues & Back Pain

Our team is highly experienced in treating all kinds of back, head and neck-related issues; any patient seeking treatment can expect a comprehensive assessment and personalised care. The symptoms you could be experiencing range from mild to severe pain, numbness or tingling in affected areas, reduced flexibility and range of motion, stiffness and/or a pins-and-needles feeling.

Pelvic Issues

We understand pelvic pain and the discomfort and difficulty that it can bring to day-to-day life. Common symptoms associated with pelvic pain may include pressure or heaviness in the pelvis, painful intercourse, and pain during or after bowel movements or urinating. Additionally, you may experience tension or tightness of your muscles around the pelvis area when sitting for a long time, urinary incontinence, increased frequency/urgency of having to go to the toilet and a sensation of incomplete bladder emptying.

Knees & Joints 

There are many symptoms that are intrinsic to knee and joint pain that can arise from arthritis, meniscus issues, and a range of other disorders. Symptoms for knee and joint disorders can range from mild to severe, and they can include swelling, stiffness, redness, and warmth to the touch. Weakness or instability in your knee joint can also indicate an underlying condition. 

Ankles & Feet

Ankle and foot pain can arise from a range of different disorders, from mild to severe. The mild disorders include minor injuries or health-related problems, with the more severe involving a torn Achilles or arthritis – to name a few. Symptoms can include some tenderness when you touch the joint or minor pain while attempting to move it. Additionally, at times these symptoms will worsen after sitting or sleeping, especially when accompanied by joint stiffness, warmth and swelling.
