The Natural Balance

In 2008 I had my ankle fused after a dislocated fracture two years previous due to a cross country accident on my horse. The accident caused osteoarthritis in my ankle joint which had to be fused as it was bone on bone and very painful.
Two years later the pain started again and started to become unbearable, X rays confirmed the other joint in my ankle now had osteoarthritis and the consultant wanted to book me in for the other joint to be fused. This meant I would have a ‘peg leg’ as he called it which would really cause me issues with my McTimoney Corley spinal therapy work. The other short term solution would be for a steroid joint injection, so booked an appointment to see if this would work.
Anyway before then Blenheim Horse trials were on so I went off on the Friday afternoon for a bit of free shopping and spoke to the people at Bioflow trade stand and purchased a bracelet, I thought it was worth a try, I put the bracelet on and did not really think about it until…….
A couple of weeks later after spending the weekend at Lincoln Riding Club nationals with some friends who were competing, the Sunday evening I realised that I had not thought about my ankle pain all weekend, it had not stopped me from doing anything and we were on our feet from 7am till around 7pm I would not have been able to cope a few weeks previously, it was not even swelling up as much as it would have done – I was then converted to magnotherapy – I still have not had a steroid injection to date nor the operation the consultant wanted me to have and I wear a magnetic bracelet every day, I never take it off!
