Eat Give and be merry

Please take the time to visit my JustGiving page:

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

So please dig deep and donate now. I know many of you were very generous last time I did a fund raise for the Olimpic triathlon in Hyde park last year raising about £300 for Marie Curie and the sports equipment in payment for Chiropractic treatment just before Christmas raised over £500 for a wonderful Childrens charity called Kids Company to help inner city children in need, get them active and let them see the joy and benifits (mental and physical) playing sport can offer.

Toys for treatment

Thanks for all the support for Kids Company

Toys 4 Treatment: Wednesday 8th December 2010

Hi everyone, I am donating my time, expertise and resources to helping a local Childrens charity called Kid's Co. which helps Inner city children in need. All the proceeds from Wednesday the 8th December go to charity.

Please bring in presents for Kid's company or money towards a very worthwile cause, I am particularily keen on donating sports equipment as I love sport and I believe it is the best way to avoid spinal and other health issues, a happy spine and nervous system means everything else works the way it should. ie HEALTH.

Please put Wednesday the 8th December into your diary and call us to pop in for an adjustment. Remember everything goes to the KID's Co. so send in friends, bring family and let's try and pull together a bunch of sports equipment and toys for the children in need - keeping them fit and healthy.

Be well

Roger

Know Someone With Forward Head Posture?

Know Someone With Forward Head Posture?

Forward head posture

No wonder you’re always tired. You have a forward head posture!

Neck pain, fatigue, carpel tunnel syndrome, TMJ syndrome, fibromyalgia, headaches ~ can how you hold your head be the cause of all these conditions? If you, or someone you know, suffers from forward head posture, and an estimated 90% of the population do, then the answer is definitely yes!

With correct head posture, the ear is centred over the shoulder. If the ear is off centre to the front of the shoulder, this is known as forward head posture. For every inch the head is forward of this centre position, it exerts an additional 10 pounds of pressure on the muscles in your neck and upper back, causing them to work harder to keep your head erect and your chin up!

But how do you get into the habit of a forward head posture? Today’s use of computers, television and video games may contribute to this condition which ultimately compresses discs and causes extensive damage.

Here are several ways to help correct this condition:

• Receive regular chiropractic adjustments
• Make sure your child’s backpack doesn’t exceed 15% of his body weight
• Take regular breaks from sitting at the computer

It may be hard to believe, but how you hold your head may be an important key to your health!
