Addressing Spinal Health:
Conditions and Management
The spine stands as a pillar of strength yet delicacy within the human body, playing a crucial role in our overall health and functionality. It not only shelters vital components of the central nervous system, such as the spinal cord and nerve roots, but also serves as a key player in providing structural support and alignment. Acting as a central hub, the spine connects a myriad of muscles and soft tissues, essential for our everyday movements and stability.
Our expertise extends to a wide range of spinal conditions, each requiring a tailored approach for effective management:
- Sprains and strains that challenge the spine's integrity.
- The sudden twist of Wry neck (Torticollis).
- Discomfort in rib joint sprains.
- The curvature complexities of Scoliosis.
- The progressive nature of Ankylosing spondylitis.
- Pain stemming from disc issues.
- The trap of nerve root entrapment.
- Age-related degenerative changes.
- The radiating pain of Sciatica.
- Pain that originates elsewhere but is felt in the spine (Referred pain).
- Symptoms indicating spinal cord compression.
- Post-operative care following surgeries such as spinal fusion, disc replacement, or micro-discectomy.
- Rehabilitation post-spine fracture.
- Managing the challenges of Scheuermann’s Disease.

At the time I could not walk more then 10 meters due to the extreme pain I was experiencing from the Bursitis in my hips. My GP was pushing cortisone injections that absolutely terrified me... Alex had me walking again within only a few months and continues to treat me now. I can't thank Alex and his team enough for giving me some kind of life back. I'll always have both these diseases but knowing that i've holistic support and treatment (that isn't scary) is such a blessing.John Mifsud2024-03-04After enjoying a life time of sports the injuries accumulate. Alex and the team at Optimum have done wonders to improve my quality of life. Regular visits has resolved the scar tissue from most of those injuries resulting in a remarkable difference to my range of movement, quality of sleep and clarity of mind.

I had suffered chronic back pain for a year, before being recommended to Alex by my partner. After my first session, I went from getting 4-5 hours of sleep a night due to my back pain, to getting a full 8 hours. But since I've been seeing Alex at Optimum Health, my back has greatly improved. The staff are professional, and welcoming.Anne Bailey2024-02-26Alex is knowledgeable and professional and has definitely improved my hip and shoulder issues.
