Morning, struggling with shoulder and neck pain, computer/ workplace ? Can’t bench/ shoulder press, shoulder slightly forward in the joint from #scoliosis #mechanicalbackpain #posture #scapular issues? As in all my work down to set up, 1. Tail, mid back( main emphasis ) and head slight contact with wall 2. #pelvicfloor recruiting ( stop urinating activation ) and BIG time #diaphragm #diaphragmaticbreathing (the forgotten core muscle ... 3. Now address your posture in upper trunk, if shoulder really forward the correction must be subtle, take emphasis off the shoulder /shoulder blade and try a cue that your clavicle is longer to release the anterior fascia. 4. Your ready to move, the wall slides straight forward but elbow and back of wrist needs to apply pressure against the wall- BUT this is where we loose the connection with the wall so please check your ribs, as in vid. The thoraco/pelvic relationship must not change, quiet breathing always. 5. The rest is easy just monitor all the above whilst executing . Sets of 5, enjoy #impingement #rotatorcuff #scapularstability #resistancebands https://www.superflexfitness.com/ #osteopathcliniccroydon #osteoanswers

Simply the best there is !!!

Quite simply the best there is , Paul has treated myself and most of my fighters over quite a few years now , from the little aches and niggles to the more major injuries and regaining mobility and indeed quality of life .

I cant recommend his clinic and treatments enough, thanks so much .



Russ

Paul, you are by far the best osteopath I have ever met! Thank you for your amazing service and incomparable treatment. I am very sorry I had to move out of London as it has been impossible to find someone to match your treatment. Thanks again:)

Paul and his team were recommended by my boss after I had a crash and suffered from whiplash. After the first session I was able to sleep and get back to work with relatively no pain! Such a better more professional experience from start to finish compared to previous treatment from insurance physio. Highly recommended!

Many thanks again to Paul and his team!

I would like to say "Thank You" to Paul for all the help he has given me with my lower back & hip problem. I would also like to thank a new member of his team, Deniz. This young lady is a fantastic sports massage therapist, the extra movement I got in my hip after just one visit was amazing. I had my second sports massage last week and my hip & back are feeling so much better, Deniz has also helped with given me some stretching exercises to do. I can not thank them both enough, I will be booking my monthly sports massage ............

I work as an acrobat, aerialist and stunt artist and have been seeing Paul for treatment for the last 15 years. Always puts me back in the air, performing with spot on treatment and knowledgable advice. It has been invaluable to have Paul as my osteopath and I cannot recommend him highly enough.

I want to let everyone know that Paul has improved the quality of my life within only 3 sessions after suffering neck and lower back pain for a long time. I feel a new man and my posture is much improved. It’s so nice not to be in constant pain and I would highly recommend Paul Morrssey and the Osteopathic Clinic, Croydon to anyone of any age who is suffering in a similar way.



Kevin Jones (Age 62)

I ripped my Tendon and ligaments in my right foot after falling down the stairs a few years ago, the hospital only gave me the option for surgery so I went to see Paul. Paul was amazing, he prevented me having surgery and utilizing the exercises he told me, I can now do Insanity workout again. Thank you Paul for giving me hope and allowing me to strengthen my foot without surgery.

I have been visiting Paul at the clinic for around 25 years. During that time, he has kept my body strong for me when I was a sportsman playing tennis, helped me keep free from injury when I was doing my medals for Latin and ballroom dancing and , more recently, put me through an exercise regime, appropriate for a post cancer patient.



All in all, I am not quite sure where my body would be right now had it not been for the man with the Midas touch. I cannot recommend him strongly enough. Thank you Paul !

I had a most excellent experience of, 'Shockwave-Therapy,' on my left knee and I am now pain free as a result of this innovative treatment... Bravo Mr. Paul Morrissey...

I cannot recommend Paul and his team enough. He has treated friends and family of mine as well as myself, with a 100% success record. I tell everyone the same thing, Paul achieves in one session, what another osteo would be lucky to in three.
