The term “slipped disc” gets thrown around a lot, but it’s actually very misleading. Discs don’t “slip” in and out of place. Each disc is firmly attached between the vertebrae and can’t just move or pop out. If a disc really did slip out, it would require emergency surgery, it’s absolutely not something that can be pushed back in.

What actually happens is that discs can degenerate, bulge, or herniate. In these cases, the inner material of the disc may press on nearby nerves, which can cause pain, tingling, or weakness. But the disc itself never 'slips out' of position.

The discomfort people often blame on a “slipped disc” is usually due to changes in how the body’s tissues and nervous system are responding, not because something has slipped out of place. But it's good to note that the body can adapt and heals with the right combination of movement, strength, and time.

So, next time you hear someone say their disc “slipped,” remember, it hasn’t gone anywhere and it's remained securely in place.

I thought I would share with you abit of my story...

🔹2009 I graduated from The Arts Institute of Bournemouth where I did a degree in Costume Design for the Screen and Stage

🔹Sept 2009 after uni I went to Kenya & did some volunteer work on a building & conservation project for 2 months, I met some amazing people, did some pretty meaningful things & learnt a lot about myself & how to appreciate what life is really about

🔹2014 I became a Blackbelt in Kickboxing, this is where my journey into movement and manual therapy began

🔹2015 saw me qualify as a Level 5 Sports and Remedial Massage Therapist. This changed my life from the 'Sunday dread' of work, to finally enjoying my workday & doing something that was meaningful to me

🔹Also in 2015 I married which is probably one of the best decisions of my life (don't tell him that though)

🔹2016 I applied on a whim & became one of the Soft Tissue Therapists for the First team at Southampton FC, getting the job over 250+ applicants... knowing didderly about football or the players I would be working with 😂

🔹2017 I decided to climb Mount Kilimanjaro, Africa's largest mountain with an equally crazy buddy of mine ._jodes

🔹2018 saw me I retrain & qualify as a Pilates instructor. I wanted to get a better understanding of how the body moved & how it could move better.

🔹2019 I enrolled in a 5 year degree in Osteopathy. After working at for 4 years & seeing the amazing work the Osteopaths did, I knew this was what I wanted to do

🔹2023 I was invited to work with the England Women's Cricket team for the home Ashes series. Again, not knowing anything about the sport but loving it from the moment I started

🔹2024 after 5 years of studying, a global pandemic and some pretty tragic personal situations, I qualified as an Osteopath

Today I bloody love my job, I love helping people feel better every day, & I love educating people on how they can live a happy & active life

Thanks to .osteopath .martialarts , everyone at & all my friends, family & patients for supporting me & making this possible

Two weeks away with the England Women's Cricket team and there was a surprising amount of sunshine 🌞 awesome cricket grounds 🏏; wins for vibe, facilities & food, thrown in with some pretty walks, delicious pizza, nommy wheelcake, an actual run (I'm as surprised as you are) and a squirrel attack 🐿️ ...it's okay, I survived...just 😂

Next up, India for the Women's ODI World Cup...this is going to be an epic adventure 🇮🇳

In the meantime, I'm back to work this week and looking forward to seeing you all
