Michelle North 07584 670898 SENIOR PHYSIOTHERAPIST

I graduated from Keele University in 1996 with a BSc Honours degree in Physiotherapy.I currently have 26 years experience in musculoskeletal physiotherapy and have worked in many different settings including NHS hospitals, Private Hospitals, Private Practice and Sports Clinics.

In 2000 I became an Extended Scope Practitioner within an NHS Hospital. In this role I have developed my assessment and diagnostic skills and attended courses to enhance knowledge in many different areas. I gained a Diploma in Injection Therapy which enables me to perform pain relieving steroid injections. I have attended courses to enable me to request x-rays, scans and blood tests to ensure an accurate diagnosis. In 2001 I gained further qualifications to enable me to practise Acupuncture. I qualified in TCM (traditional Chinese medicine) which is an all encompassing holistic approach to illness and injury and takes into account work/home/environmental stresses, diet and exercise habits. This information results in a unique treatment tailor made to every individual.

I started the Physio Rooms in 2014- and have never looked back! We have a lovely clinic space in a great location and are very lucky to work with lots of great patients.

I myself am hugely motivated by sports and fitness, participating in running, cycling, weight training and tennis. This means I fully understand the psychological as well as physical impact an injury can have on an individual, and the importance of returning to full fitness a soon as possible!

Acupuncture is a treatment derived from ancient Chinese medicine. Fine needles are inserted at certain sites in the body for therapeutic or preventative purposes.

Western medical acupuncture is the use of acupuncture following a medical diagnosis. It involves stimulating sensory nerves under the skin and in the muscles.

This results in the body producing natural substances, such as pain-relieving endorphins. It's likely that these naturally released substances are responsible for the beneficial effects experienced with acupuncture.

Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) explains acupuncture as a technique for balancing the flow of energy or life force — known as chi or qi (chee) — believed to flow through pathways (meridians) in your body. By inserting needles into specific points along these meridians, acupuncture practitioners believe that your energy flow will re-balance

A course of acupuncture usually creates longer lasting pain relief than when a single treatment is used.
