Although an active 70-year-old enjoying gym and cycling 4 times a week, I had an attack of sciatica lasting 10 weeks damaging the nerve, which left me with foot drop and unable to walk unaided. The NHS couldn’t offer anything more than advise the nerve might repair within two years but if not I would always walk with a limp, needing walking poles for safety. Not knowing what else to do I thought I’d try a chiropractor, the best decision I’ve made in a long time. After being assessed, Pauline recommended a course of manual adjusting, acupuncture and exercises. After only two months I’m walking a lot better only use my poles for long distances. Pauline has also helped straighten my round shoulders which my wife says makes me an inch or two taller – too many years working at a desk. So I will continue with period check-ups as part of my general health wellbeing regime. I cannot recommend Pauline highly enough. She is a professional with a smile.
