I've been seeing an Osteopath, who has really sorted out my back problem, still little twinges, but that's something only execise can sort out now and strengthen my back again.

He also found that my neck vertebrae were severly out of line, and had been for a long time...

Which was probably due to my toboganning accident in Early January (don't ask... but I'm never sledging on a heavy duty farm feed plastic bag again) and I had been suffering from continuous severe headaches, which was apparantly due to my neck bones pressing on nerves.

The relief when he manipulated my neck back in was beyond words!

I can recommend that too, but make sure they are accredited. The treatment generally starts with a chat to find out whats what, then a massage on the offending area, followed by the manipulation.

The back problem happened as a result of falling down the stairs after the sledging incident, in both cases I hadn't realised exactly how much damage I had really done.

The sledging one just looked like a nasty bruise, so I reckon I was damned lucky I didn't break my neck, I landed on my head and shoulder and my whole vertebrae had a hard impact and jolt all the way down...

So, don't go sledging, or if you do, wear a helmet!
