Meet The Team - Sophie 20th June 2022

Hi I’m Sophie, and I'm one of the superstar Centre Assistant team here at Stoke Chiro!

I’m a fun loving person that thrives from being busy working two jobs, whilst still making sure to try and enjoy life to the fullest! I’m a huge foodie who loves to try new things and give it a go at cooking it myself. As it was Healthy Eating Week last week, I really wanted to share my experience of an alternative diet that I've started recently.

What people may not know about me is that whilst juggling a extremely busy lifestyle I have suffered with Irritable Bowl Syndrome (IBS) the majority of my life. I first got admitted into hospital at the age of 6 and have had a number of surgeries up to today. The truth is, doctors are unsure how to help me as it’s been so hard to diagnose anything further such as Crohn's disease. This can cause a lot of added stress on my shoulders, which can lead to a flare up and then leaving me feeling helpless most of the time.

I have recently taken the time to do some research and try out a low FODMAP diet. This is diet full of foods that are low in fermentable carbs - these are non digestible short-chain carbs that are osmotically active, meaning they force water into your digestive tract. This might seem a daunting task but it really isn’t! Since starting this diet I have seen and felt so much improvement! The constant bloating is rarely there and my fear of going on long journeys is considerably less; I'm even sleeping better and generally feel a lot more energetic!

I know that unfortunately there are going to be times ahead that I will feel unwell and my journey is far from over, but on a positive note I can confidentially say I’m looking forward to feeling and being a better version of me. IBS is not spoken about enough, so if anyone is struggling or just need some advice please feel free to ask away when you're next in the centre!

Fantastic people, care and attention! Every member of staff go above and beyond. So caring and friendly. I have struggled withy back for many years along with osteoarthritis in both knees. But since visiting stoke chiro regularly I've seen a huge improvement in my mobility. Also when I do have a flare up it is no where near as bad. Thank you Stoke Chiro. X

All of the staff at Stoke Chiro are great! They all make you feel so welcome and they are all super friendly. The girls at the desk always ask how you are and make conversation. If you ever have a problem with an appointment or a query about anything the girls are always so eager to help you.
I suffer daily with migraines and I have done for years. I felt as though the doctors weren’t helping and couldn’t do anything for me. I never even knew that chiropractors can help with this sort of pain, and after being recommended, My chiropractor Andy has made me feel so comfortable starting my journey here and is really helpful. He has recommended supplements aswell as how to improve my daily activities. I am so happy to say after only a handful of sessions I feel as though my migraines are slowly reducing. I’ll continue to trust the process and turn up. Thanks again to Andy and all of the girls for making me feel ever so welcome

My Stoke Chiro experience has been amazing! Regularly suffering with neck and shoulder pain I decided to do something about it. The adjustment and strengthening programme has left me pain free and given me the confidence and knowledge to maintain my health. Can’t recommend Lauren enough, everything is clearly explained and her care and experience has helped me to progress and heal extremely quickly.
