#SlippedDisc #DiscHerniation #DiscBulge #DiscProlapse   Do you have a #SlippedDisc? Please watch this video to find out more information! The discs in between the spinal vertebrae normally act as shock absorbers, absorbing all the weight and load we go through on a day to day basis.  A disc herniation, more commonly known as a slipped disc is a condition where there is a weakening of the disc tissue.  This condition may develop as a natural part of the aging process, but it is more commonly associated with a  #BackInjury.  A back injury can occur from number of day to day activities – the most common is sitting for prolonged periods and bending forward and lifting. A disc injury typically begins when small tears appear in the disc wall as a result of a back injury.  When the body starts to heal the disc tissue, it creates #ScarTissue that is not as strong as the original disc wall. If the back is repeatedly injured, th...

#Stress #Fatigue #RelieveYourStressAndFatigueWithTheAMIClinic Are you stressed and feeling down in the dumps? Stress and fatigue is one of the most common complaints of modern society. The stress response is the body’s way of protecting you. But beyond a certain point, stress stops being helpful and starts causing major damage to your health, your mood, your productivity, your relationships, and your quality of life. Whether the stress is from an emotional source, a nutrient imbalance, or a physical problem. Your body responds to stress by releasing a flood of stress hormones, including adrenaline and cortisol. These hormones rouse the body for action. If your stress level remain high for long periods of time, your body's reserve becomes depleted. Long term depletion can impair the body's ability to adapt to stress. It's important to learn how to recognize when your stress levels are out of control. Research is seeing a direct links betwee...

#Spring #Gardening #ProtectYourBackWhilstGardening Put a spring back in your step with the AMI Clinic Bedford!  Before you start gardening this spring it is important to have some simple gardening advice... Start by warming up muscles and joints by performing simple stretching exercises.   Start with smaller, less stressful jobs, and take regular breaks. It is a good idea to kneel down to do your planting, place both knees on a knee pad or kneeler. You can even use an old cushion or blanket. This avoids excessive bending in the spine and cumulative stress with prolonged postures. Avoid twisting movements and repetitive strain injuries by switching tasks. When lifting anything remember to bend your knees and keep your back straight. If using a hover mower, you should push it in front of you and face the direction in which you are cutting the grass, rather than swinging it from side to side. Use your strong arm and thigh muscles to push and...
