Covid – 19 / Coronavirus Update – 30th July 2020

We are pleased to announce that we ARE OPEN!

Following guidance from the British Chiropractic Association, we are very pleased to say that we are now open to "face-to-face" appointments.

You will be aware that the Coronavirus (COVID-19) advice is updated on a daily basis and as a health clinic we feel it important that you know what measures we have taken to ensure that both patients and team members stay safe. We have a full Risk Assessment in place. These measures include (but are not limited to)

• Your chiropractor will be wearing PPE (personal protective equipment) in accordance with the recommendations from Public Health England.  This means IIR face mask, single use apron, single use gloves and face visor/goggles/eye covering on a risk assessed basis

• Visitors to the clinic are required to wear a face mask (with the exception of children)

• All clients visiting the clinic a required to fill out a COVID-19 prescreening form - this is emailed to you upon appointment confirmation

• We have stringent cleaning protocols in place

•Our waiting area is currently out of action, as part of social distancing measures.  You will be required to wait outside until your appointment time, when you will be greeted by your chiropractor.  Please arrive on time!

• Upon arrival, you will be required to use the hand sanitiser provided.  Your temperature may also be taken using a non-contact digital thermometer

• We have modified our New Patient Consultation so that it is now in 2 parts - instead of 1 hour face-to-face, it is now 2x half hour sessions, where the first session is the "Question and Answer" section, and is performed virtually, via the online platform "Zoom".  The second half takes place in clinic and comprises the Physical Examination and Report of our Findings.  Care, if appropriate (ie if we mutually agree that Chiropractic care is the best way forwards for you and if we don't need to send away for x-rays or other investigations) usually begins at this session.

You can contact us via the Facebook Direct Messaging service or email us via our website: www.s1chiropractic.com so please do not hesitate to contact us with any queries you may have.

Please be assured that we are keeping up to date with all developments and advice from the Government, Public Health England and the British Chiropractic Association.  We will continue to take the necessary precautions for as long as we need to.

Webster Technique

February 2011- Libby is now a Certified Practitioner of the Webster Technique.

“The Webster Technique is defined as a specific chiropractic analysis and adjustment that reduces interference to the nerve system and facilitates biomechanical balance in pelvic structures, muscles and ligaments. This has been shown to reduce the effects of intrauterine constraint, allowing the baby to get into the best possible position for birth.” (Jeanne Ohm).

For more information regarding the Webster Technique and its uses, and why it is so important for pregnant women to get their pelvis and spinal alignment checked, please see here
