So You’ve Been Diagnosed With Arthritis Now What Do You Do?

Getting diagnosed with a condition that has no known cure can be worrying and stressful for both the individual and their family.

It often feels as if suddenly everything you do is in an effort to prevent another flare-up or worsening of your pain.

You stop buying the foods you enjoy because it’s too hard to open the packaging.

You stop taking the dog on longer walks through the park because you’re afraid of overdoing it.

You stop drawing, cooking, reading, or engaging in your other hobbies because it’s too painful for your hands, shoulders and spine.

You start to feel reliant on others to clean up around the house and manage all the errands like your shopping.

It can begin to feel like this is the way it will be now forever.

But it’s important to not mistake ‘no cure’ with ‘no treatment’.

And it’s especially important to understand that you have more treatment options than you may have initially thought.

  Thank you Life Balance. I have been seeing Harrison and Kayla on a regular basis now. Compared to my starting point of not being able to work, drive or even sit comfortably, with the combination of adjustments and sports massage, I am now back to work. I appreciate all your support and I am really grateful to be able to carry on working within a short period of time.
When attending an appointment there is always a warm welcome from everyone at reception and the rest of the Life Balance team.

  After experiencing chronic headaches/migraines I took advantage of the introductory offer in June. The team are fabulous and really care about their clients.

They are really thorough and each plan is tailored to your needs. The headaches are gone, I can’t explain how incredible that is. My posture is improving, I am less hunched and my breathing at night has improved so I don’t snore. Overall mood has improved too which has a positive effect on the whole family. I’m still receiving treatment and I can’t wait to see my progress at my next review.

  I initially came across the world of chiropractic care after seeing some videos online and reading about the benefits people were experiencing, so I decided to find a practice close to me in Poole and after a quick google search I found Life Balance Chiropractic.
I initially went to Life Balance to see a chiropractor for sciatica which was affecting my driving and for pain in my hips after glandular fever. However, I had been reading about the benefits having adjustments could have on a person's mental health and coincidentally, I was also signed off work with exhaustion and as a result my mental health had taken a knock. I explained all of this to Harrison the chiropractor and he felt that positive change was possible both physically and mentally for me.
To say I was nervous would be an understatement, I grew up with a mother who told me chiropractors  were dangerous and to be avoided, but Harrison was very patient and explained things before doing them.
The first adjustment appointment went well and at the second, I was asked if I had experienced any changes positive or negative. Well, my menstrual cycle had been kick started for the first time in about 7 years which was quite a shock initially, but after speaking with another chiropractor, Olivia, who explained that this was a good thing and that my body was responding well, I felt more positive.
During the second session, Harrison said he was going to do an adjustment on my neck that would "wake me up". In the days that followed, I began reading for leisure for the first time in over a decade. It had always been an activity I enjoyed, but as my mental health had became more medication dependent, I found that when I read a novel, my eyes couldn't focus on the page and the words danced around and I certainly couldn't take the words in so I moved over to audio books. The last time I had tried was just a couple of months ago and still couldn't read the way I wanted to. This has been an unexpected and joyous improvement to my life that's come from the adjustments and I can't thank Harrison enough.
Physically, I have minimal pain in both my hips now and the sciatica isn't occurring as often.
I'm only 5 sessions into 24, so with so much improvement in a short space of time, I'm excited to see what will happen at the end of the 24.

  Both the Chiropractor, Harrison, and Kayla, doing the massage treatments have helped me greatly with my lower back pain and I wish I had come earlier.  I would recommend them to everyone.

  I have been come since 2020 for chronic back pain, also neck and plus very bad debilitating migraines, my medication wasn’t helping and neither was seeing a physio. I could only walk very short distance. Initially I was seen weekly. But within a short period my migraines had gone I was able to stop taking the medication for that. My back neck and shoulder pain has taken longer because of arthritis , and a few set backs with falls and illnesses. I am now on a maintenance plan although I have to walk using a rollator I can walk much further. I have to stop and start, but I am able to enjoy life again. Also with aid of the pain management I am reducing my pain relief. I also very much recommend the massage the combination is so beneficial. All the staff are so helpful and friendly. My problems will never be cured but this what keeps me moving and enjoying life again. Thank you so much especially Josh for all your help and future help.

  I contacted Life Balance with back pain I'd never had before. I knew it wouldn't be a "quick fix" due to an old back injury, but I am already seeing results and moving more easily. The staff are all friendly and helpful. Dr Jack has been great, explaining every stage of my treatment and answering questions have.

  I came in with bad and constant face pain as no one else seemed to be able to help. Within only 3 weeks of getting adjustments, I have seen significant improvements to my pain and my quality of life in general. The receptionist team is easily the loveliest I have ever met and I'm always greeted with a smile when I come in. Harrison has been fantastic explaining what exactly isn't right with my spine and how we can fix it. It's been only 3 weeks and he's done an amazing job! If you're looking for a competent and friendly chiropractor with a comfortable environment, look no further!

  I have had a great experience with Life Balance , starting with my daughter who was seen from age of 5 weeks old , listened and treated with care and changed her within the first visit.
I have had back problems for years which have been managed but never resolved . I had a full assessment with xray. Full explanation with results and the best treatment to get me on my journey for pain free and more movement.  Having a 4 month old baby and other children being in constant pain was exhausting . I am half way through treatment and feeling more positive and more comfortable.  I never have any problem moving my appointments to fit in and around my busy life.  Which Is so helpful . Thank you so far to everyone who is treating me . Lou x

How To Stop Arthritis From Controlling Your Life

The usual GP go-to solution for arthritis is a combination of exercise, a change in diet, and prescription medication.

But that has the potential to lead to even more problems through:

Repeated Physical Stress which can increase the risk of further damage.
Repeated Mental Stress from our thoughts which can lower our immune system.
Repeated Chemical Stress from medications can wreak havoc on our bodies.

What you may not have been told is that there are other 100% natural alternatives to help alleviate the symptoms you’re experiencing.

Ones that are painless, effective, fast-acting, and able to improve the body’s range of motion and health of the joints, meaning you can continue to do the things you love.

And we are here to provide you with that exact service.

The Natural Solution That Helps You Coexist With Your Diagnosis

Arthritis can develop in anyone at any time, and there are over 100 types and related conditions.

While more familiar forms like osteoarthritis are closely associated with ageing and wear and tear on the joints from damage or a lack of motion or alignment that was never previously addressed. Many autoimmune forms can occur in children as young as six months old.

The key is to know and understand all your treatment options.

Whether your arthritis began a while ago or this has been a recent development:

Life Balance Chiropractic can help get you on track to coexisting more peacefully with your diagnosis and the symptoms that come with it.

So you can help to significantly improve the quality of your life today and allow you to keep active, mobile and maintain your independence much longer into the future.

What We Treat

Say Goodbye to Arthritis Pain: Transform Your Life with Our Proven Treatments for Lasting Arthritis Relief.

Who Are We & How Can We Help?

We are Life Balance Chiropractic, and we are the UK’s #1 family-friendly care provider for exceptional patient excellence.

Our goal is to make your body a better place to live in.

In short, helping to relieve your arthritis pain is our business.

We offer chiropractic care & massage through our proven process carried out by expert practitioners.

Chiropractic care may be able to address the cause of osteoarthritis. One of the main reasons osteoarthritis occurs is that a joint may be damaged over time because it’s either lost motion or out of alignment, and so the body lays down new bone to project the area that’s not moving or working well. Chiropractic care can correct these issues, which can keep your arthritis from getting worse and also allow you to continue to do the things you love with more independence.

This enables us to help families live a better, more fulfilling life by taking a modern and proactive approach to healing while supporting their ability to stay active, mobile and independence through strength, mobility, and freedom from pain.

As one of the top multi-award-winning clinics for chiropractic treatment, we ensure a high level of care in patient satisfaction and customer experience.

It is important for us to connect with our patients on a personal level.

That’s why our experienced international team does everything we can to create a pleasant and custom-tailored experience, delivering the best quality care for each unique patient need.

Every time.

You Don’t Have To Know What’s Wrong To Get Help

There are times when multiple issues and symptoms coincide or overlap, especially when considering arthritis.

For example:

Some joint pain can actually be caused by an underlying injury, while some seemingly unrelated symptoms can be caused by the inflammation of arthritis.

The point is we are not expecting you to know exactly what is wrong.

But if you bring all your symptoms to us, we will work with you to help decipher what has gone wrong, where the problem is, and create a custom solution designed specifically for you.

So you can get back to living your life faster.
