We Understand Your Pain

We at The Oak Practice truly understand the big effect bad posture can have on you. Many of the people we work with have to deal with constant back pain, problems with their spine, and tired muscles, even though they’ve tried using fancy chairs and doing exercises. These traditional approaches often only provide temporary relief, leaving people feeling stuck and frustrated with their ongoing discomfort.

Postural Problems

Why Common Posture Fixes Fail

A common way people try to fix their posture is by sitting straight or using special chairs, but it doesn’t always do the trick. Even though these fixes might feel good for a bit, they don’t get rid of the real issues, so the pain and frustration linger. Clients come to us after exhausting numerous short-term fixes, sceptical yet hopeful for a lasting solution.

Living with this persistent pain in my back and shoulder has been a real challenge. It's like a constant companion, making it hard to enjoy even the simplest things in life. Sitting down, standing up - everything seems to aggravate it. I've tried various treatments over the years, including surgery, but nothing seemed to provide lasting relief. Then I met Stephen at the Oak Practice. The instant I entered, I felt at ease. He took the time to grasp my challenges with previous treatments. Now, together, we're crafting a plan to fix my posture and lessen the pain. Right from the start, I felt comfortable. He understood the struggles I had with past treatments. Now, we're working together to come up with a plan to improve my posture and make the pain less.

Having chronic lower back pain has been tough. I've tried all sorts of treatments, like massages and exercises, hoping they'd work. But the pain stuck around, making everyday tasks difficult to do. Then, I met Stephen at the Oak Practice. His approach was different. He took the time to understand my history, pulling apart the previous treatments I'd undergone. We chatted about how my posture might be causing my pain. Together, we started a journey to deal with what's really making me uncomfortable. Each time I see Stephen, he checks me over carefully, seeing where I'm feeling tense or in pain. We've tried different techniques, from deep tissue release to needle therapy, targeting specific areas of concern. With each treatment, I've noticed improvements. My lower back feels stronger, and the sensation of pain has diminished. Even my foot, which used to ache constantly, is better now. But it's not just about the physical treatments. Stephen also provides guidance on posture correction and exercises to strengthen my muscles. He empowers me to take control of my health, giving me hope for a future without constant pain. Even though getting better can be tough, Stephen's help and knowledge have been crucial. Now, I feel like I'm finally getting somewhere with my pain, and I'm really thankful for that.

Since my last visit, I've been coping well, except for the strain from lifting at a wedding. Neck and back pain linger, especially on the left side, and my left foot hurts. Despite this, the gym hasn't worsened it. Stephen at the Oak Practice examined me and treated my tense muscles under the shoulder blade and right side. He explained how my posture might be contributing to the discomfort, pointing out areas where I tended to slouch or lean. With gentle adjustments and exercises, he aimed to correct these habits, emphasising the importance of sitting and standing tall to alleviate strain on my spine. After a few sessions, I felt looser, with less stiffness. A recent car accident brought new challenges, with middle back pain and stiffness on movement. Stephen addressed the issues, focusing on my spine alignment and muscle tension, providing specific exercises to strengthen my core and improve my posture. Each session brings improvement, giving me hope for better days ahead.
