April is Irritable Bowel Syndrome awareness month. This condition is estimated to affect between 10-20% of people in the UK.

The impact of IBS on people’s lives can be enormous with it limiting their lives in a number of ways including disrupting their daily activities such as work and limiting their ability to travel far for fear of not being near a toilet. This can lead to emotional distress and anxiety which can further exacerbate the symptoms. All of this can culminate in social isolation.

A potential alternative to antihistamines?

Fantastic turnout for this event - well done to everyone involved in this event. I have had direct experience of close family members being diagnosed with prostate cancer and know how early detection makes such a huge difference to outcomes. Along with the life saving surgery, radiotherapy and medication , acupuncture also has a role and can also be used to help with the hot flushes associated with prostate cancer treatment.

If you are suffering or know anyone suffering the after effects of treatment , please consider a course of acupuncture
to help alleviate the symptoms. For more information please don’t hesitate to contact me.

After a month off volunteering with a team of 6 acupuncturists and 6 interpreters from the World Medicine charity at an acupuncture camp in India- I’m now back in my own clinic Jenny Hampton Massage in St John’s Street and welcoming old and new patients again.

We treated over 700 patients there for a variety of problems including trigeminal neuralgia, peripheral neuropathy, digestive issues, menopausal and menstrual problems, and mental health issues.

By far the most common treatments were musculoskeletal,as most of the people there earn their living from farming so treated many, many knees and backs. Very similar conditions to this country although I treated one farmer who had hurt his shoulder fighting off a lion who was attacking his cow!
