Zumba? Running? Working out? -
The consequences of wearing an unsuitable shoe can be disastrous. Your contact with
the ground will set in motion a whole chain of events from the foot through the ankle,
the knee, the hip, the pelvis and the spine. At best the wrong footwear will limit
your performance but it has the potential to cause serious and long-

Cost effectiveness of pain clinics are put into question.
A transcript of a lecture given by Peter Yellowless (PE) at a British Pain Society
Philosophy and Ethics meeting was published in Pain News in March 2012. In these
times of austerity it makes very interesting reading as it suggests that pain clinics
are anything but cost effective.

Pain at work -
Recent Australian research suggests that working in a role you do not enjoy make
you more likely to suffer back pain than your colleagues who enjoy their work. The
study will be presented at a Pain Society meeting in late April by its author, Rheumatologist,
Orthopaedic Surgeon and Associate Professor Markus Melloh.

as to What? Why? When? Who?
Worthing chiropractor, Jan Olsen DC, tries to provide some answers.

PhD, from Atlanta has published a study* into the risks of sitting too much. She

Back pain in children is linked to the weight of their school bag.
When carrying something it is generally considered better to distribute the weight
evenly and holding it as close to your body as possible. This is why a backpack or
a rucksack often is recommended as a school bag. However, for it to be of benefit
it needs to be worn over both shoulders and, when packed, the weight of the bag should
not exceed 10% of the child’s weight.

Is your pillow a pain in the neck? -
If you wake up with neck pain, back pain and/or headaches, which disappear fairly
quickly after rising you may benefit from adjusting the height of the pillow you
sleep on. It does not necessarily mean that you have to get new pillow, as you may
be able to make the one you have already support you better. So how do you do that?

Do you get ‘normal’ headaches?
Ian and I treat a wide variety of conditions here at Park View Acupuncture and Chiropractic
Clinic. However, one of the routine questions we always ask during the case history
is: “Do you get headaches?” and a very common answer is: “No more than everyone else”
or words to that effect. How often does ‘everyone else’ get headaches?

Wahooo -
A couple of weeks ago the journalist, Catrin Shi, from the Worthing Herald came to
see Sarah for acupuncture. She was so impressed that she wrote a whole page in the

It was published on March 8, 2012. And yes, she has been back.
