Most back problems don’t start with one big injury
They build up slowly. A bit of stiffness here. A dull ache there. A back that feels tired after a day at the desk.
It often comes from small daily habits: how you sit, where your screen is, how you hold your head, how long you stay in one position.
Most people never see the link. They blame age, stress, or a “weak back”, but the real cause is usually how the body is loaded for hours each day at work.
Your back is reacting to load and recovery
Your body is built to adapt. When you load it in a certain way, it changes to cope with that load.
Trouble starts when the daily load is just a bit more than your body can fully recover from. Not a lot more – just slightly more, repeated most days.
That is when you notice stiffness in the morning, a tight patch between the shoulders, or a back that feels “not quite right” after sitting.
The good news: in most desk-based cases, this pattern is normal, understandable, and often reversible when you change how the load is applied through the day.
In simple terms
- Load = how you sit, move and hold yourself through the day
- Recovery = how your body rests, repairs and resets
- Symptoms appear when load is a little higher than recovery for too long
- Change the load, and you often change the symptoms
A simple, personal review of how your workspace is loading your spine
The Workspace Load Review is a one-off, remote assessment of how your desk set-up and working habits are affecting your spine, neck and shoulders.
It is not a generic checklist. It is calm, one-to-one guidance from an experienced chiropractor, focused on three things: clarity, understanding, and small practical changes you can actually make.
- Simple – you complete a short questionnaire from home
- Personalised – advice based on your body, your job and your set-up
- Practical – clear steps, without buying lots of new equipment
- Explanation-based – you will understand the “why”, not just be told what to do
One-off payment. No subscription. Remote service from Cumbria, UK.

What patients say about our explanations
“Nobody has ever explained my back pain so clearly. For the first time I understand what I’ve been doing all day to wind it up, and what to change.”
— Sarah, desk-based worker
“The advice was very down to earth. Small adjustments to my chair, screen and breaks have made long days at the laptop much more comfortable.”
— James, software developer
A simple starting point before a full in-clinic assessment
A typical in-clinic spinal assessment is around £100 and involves travel, time off work, and a physical examination.
The £50 Workspace Load Review gives you a clear, written explanation and a practical plan you can start from home. For many people, this is enough to ease day-to-day strain and decide calmly what to do next.
- £50, one-off payment
- Delivered remotely – no travel
- Keep your written review to refer back to
- Use it to guide your own changes or future treatment
If, after your review, it looks like you would benefit from hands-on care, we will say so clearly and you can decide in your own time.
Ready to understand what your workspace is doing to your back?
If you prefer to think things through before making changes, this review is a calm place to start. No pressure, just clear guidance based on your own day-to-day life.
If it does not feel right for you after reading this page, that is fine as well. Keep listening to your body, and seek in-person care if your symptoms are worrying, severe or getting worse.
Frequently asked questions
Who is the Workspace Load Review for?
It is for people who spend a lot of time at a desk or laptop and notice back, neck or shoulder discomfort during or after work. You might have ongoing niggles, stiffness, tiredness or a feeling that something is not quite right, but you are well enough to work and manage daily life.
Do I need to be in pain to benefit?
No. Many people use the review as an early warning check when things feel slightly off but not yet painful. Understanding load and recovery at this stage can help you make small changes before problems build.
What exactly is included?
You receive: a short online questionnaire, a personal review of your answers and workspace photos (if you choose to send them), a written explanation of how your current set-up is loading your body, and a clear set of suggested changes and immediate actions.
How long does it take to receive my review?
Most reviews are completed and sent within 3 working days of receiving your questionnaire answers. If there is likely to be a delay, we will let you know promptly.
Is this a one-off or a subscription?
It is a single, one-off payment of £50 for one review. There are no recurring charges and no subscription.
Does this replace in-person treatment?
No. It does not replace a medical assessment or hands-on treatment. It is an educational and practical tool to help you understand how your workspace and habits affect your body. If your symptoms are severe, worrying or getting worse, please seek in-person medical advice.
Simple reassurance
If, after completing the questionnaire and receiving your review, you feel it has not given you any new understanding or practical next steps, email us within 7 days and we will refund your £50.
We would rather you feel that your time and money have been well used, even if that means we are not the right fit for you.
