Histon is one of the most charming villages in Cambridgeshire, situated just north of Cambridge, close to the equally picturesque settlement of Impington.
The area has a rich and fascinating history, with its name deriving from the Saxon/Old English words hyse and tun, ”meaning house of the young warrior”. History is everywhere you look in Histon, from the classic village sign to Gun’s Lane, the oldest surviving area of interest in the village.
The village also possesses all the classic village aspects, including St. Andrew’s church, celebrated schools and Histon Football Club. And, of course, Milton Chiropractic Clinic is located conveniently close to the village.
Chiropractic for managing wear and tear
Unfortunately, about half of us will experience some form of wear and tear over the course of our life. The cumulative effects of daily life – particularly for those of us who repeat the same activities over and over again – can grind our bodies down and eventually stop us from being able to do the thing we love. Whether it is competing in elite sport, gardening, going for walks or playing with the grandkids, it is important that we all prioritise our health so that we are able to do the things we enjoy for as long as possible.
Wear and tear can present itself as aches, pains, stiffness, cracking noises and muscle pain. You may find that you’re losing your mobility, especially in your weight-bearing joints like your spine, hips and knees. But despite what you may think, wear and tear isn’t something you just have to learn to live with. It’s your body’s way of telling you something is wrong. And when something is wrong, chiropractic care can help to alleviate pain and manage conditions.
Just as importantly, regular chiropractic treatment and manual therapy can be used as a preventative measure – helping to retain good alignment and a healthy body so that wear and tear is less likely to happen.
