The Spine Health Centre was established in 2000 and is now a multi-disciplinary centre - bringing together our team to diagnose and treat spinal conditions and related problems. The emphasis is to provide holistic care and rehabilitation therapy along with Osteopathic treatment allowing our patients to feel part of the process which also aids healing and recovery.
We are able to treat a whole range of musculoskeletal problems ranging from joint and muscle strains through to more complex joint problems and sports injuries, as well as general spine and joint pain and problems in children and older people.
Traditional vaccines work by giving a person a weak, partial version of a virus which causes the body to make anti-bodies. If the person then acquires the virus, the anti-bodies then fight the virus off.
mRNA vaccines do not contain any part of the virus, instead they contain a genetic (RNA) code that causes the body to produce a protein which acts like the virus and this causes the immune system to react by making anti-bodies to fight off the virus.
mRNA vaccines are safe as they do not change your genetic code, it just gives the body instructions to make specific proteins, the body then gets rid of the mRNA instruction. In the UK, this type of vaccineis being rolled out by Pfizer BioNTech.
The new Oxford Astra-Zeneca vaccine is very similar but uses the more stable DNA genetic code,this is why it can be stored in normal refrigerators. Both require 2 doses at intervals.
