Christmas Injury Alert
Hey everyone! As we dive into the festive season, let's talk about the number one Christmas injury we see each year.
While wrapping presents can be a joyful part of the holidays, it often leads to unexpected back pain. Imagine sitting on the floor for hours, leaning forward, reaching for the sellotape and scissors... Ouch, right?
Pro Tip: Avoid the agony! Instead of sitting on the floor, try wrapping your gifts at a higher surface like a breakfast bar or even an ironing board. Trust me, your back will thank you!
And, if you're curious why I'm dressed like an angel... it's for our clinic's osteopathic nativity play! Stay tuned for that!

What does shockwave therapy treat?
Oct 18, 2023
Shockwave therapy is specifically designed to tackle those persistent, nagging tendon injuries that just don't seem to go away. Conditions like plantar fasciitis, jumper's knee, trochanteric fasciitis, shoulder tendonopathies, calcific tendonitis, Achilles tendonopathy, tennis elbow, and golfer's elbow fall into this category. They can be incredibly stubborn and resistant to conventional treatments as they progress into chronic phases.
If you've exhausted all your options, from exercises to hands-on treatments, steroid injections, or even tried things like GTM patches, and you're still grappling with discomfort and pain, then shockwave therapy might be the solution you've been searching for.
Here at Cram Osteopaths, we specialize in focused and radial shockwave therapy, and it's available at all our locations. If you're intrigued by this treatment and still battling pain and discomfort, don't hesitate to reach out. We'd be thrilled to assist you on your path to...
Do Osteopaths only treat backs?
Sep 20, 2023
Wondering if osteopaths only deal with back problems? Well, the answer is a resounding NO! We're here to help you with more than just your back pain.
Osteopaths look at all the joints in your body that might be causing you trouble, whether it's related to your back or not.
For instance, you might be experiencing those pesky pins and needles shooting down your arm – that could be linked to your neck! Or perhaps you're dealing with a nagging shoulder, tennis elbow, or carpal tunnel syndrome? No worries, our skilled osteopaths can definitely address those issues too! And don't forget about your lower limbs – all sorts of problems can arise that aren't directly connected to your back.
So, don't hesitate to reach out to us. Give us a call, and our fantastic team will have a friendly chat with you to see if a consultation is the right step for you. Let's get you feeling better, sooner rather than later!
