Back Pain That Lasts Is a Signal — Not a Life Sentence.

Chronic back pain is incredibly common in people over 40 — especially here in Cumbria, where life can be active, physical, and demanding. Most people have been told to stretch more, take painkillers, or “learn to live with it.” But that’s not real help.

Your body is trying to heal — it just needs the right support. My name’s Peter Bennett, and I’ve helped thousands of people across Cumbria reduce or completely recover from persistent back pain using natural, gentle chiropractic care.

WHAT IF

“I’ve tried everything.”

✔ You’ve treated symptoms. I help you correct the cause.

“I’m too old.”

✔ Age makes healing slower — not impossible. I help people in their 60s, 70s, even 80s move freely again.

“I don’t want to be cracked.”

✔ No cracking here. My approach is calm, gentle, and effective — even if you’re nervous or sensitive.

Why Gentle Chiropractic Works — Even After Months (or Years) of Pain

Your spine protects your nervous system — and your nervous system controls everything. When spinal movement is restricted or misaligned, it affects how your body heals, how it moves, and how it feels.

By restoring clear communication between your brain and body, gentle chiropractic helps:

  • Free up stiff joints and trapped nerves

  • Improve posture and movement

  • Calm the pain signals that won’t turn off

  • Support lasting healing — not just quick fixes

Your First Step Could Be the Easiest One Yet.

STILL NOT SURE?

Frequently Asked Questions

Why does my back still hurt after all this time?

Because the root cause hasn’t been addressed. The nervous system can stay “stuck” in pain mode — and needs support to reset.

Is it safe for people in their 50s, 60s or 70s?

Absolutely. My approach is gentle, and designed with your age, health and comfort in mind. I've safely looked after clients in theuir 90s

Do you treat people from my town?

I see clients from Carlisle, Penrith, Kendal, Keswick and the whole of Cumbria.

Protecting Your Senses by Caring for Your Spine

Protecting Your Senses by Caring for Your Spine

November 06, 20252 min read

Looking Back Over the Series

Over the last few weeks, we’ve explored how spinal misalignment can affect each of your senses:

  • Sight– blurred vision, eye strain, headaches.

  • Hearing & Balance– tinnitus, dizziness, vertigo.

  • Smell– reduced scent, sinus pressure, altered taste.

  • Taste– food tasting flat or different.

  • Touch– numbness, pins and needles, tingling.

  • Body Awareness (Proprioception)– clumsiness, stumbles, poor balance.

It’s clear: your spine isn’t just about posture or back pain—it’s about the way you experience the world.


Why Your Spine Matters for Your Senses

Your nervous system is the communication highway between your body and your brain. If that pathway is blocked, irritated, or misaligned, your experience of reality can be altered—whether it’s blurred vision, ringing ears, dulled taste, or clumsy balance.

Or, as neuroscientist David Eagleman says:
“Our brain is not directly in touch with the outside world, but instead lives in a kind of reality bubble built from our sensory signals.”

That bubble depends on your spine working at its best.


Next Steps for You

If it’s been a while since your last check-up, now’s the perfect time to come in for a spinal checkBook your check here.

If you’ve never been before, why not start with a spinal health assessmentBook your assessment here.

Taking this step could make all the difference to your health, mobility, and even the way you sense the world around you.


Would You Like the Whole Series in One Place?

I’ve put together a free PDF copy of the full “Spine and Your Senses” series.If you’d like me to send it to you, just reply to this post and I’ll send it over.


Over to You

I’d also love to know:

  • Was there a part of this series that really spoke to you?

  • Is there another sense or area of health you’d like me to cover in future?

Drop me a message—I’d be happy to hear your thoughts.


Takeaway

Your spine is more than a stack of bones—it’s the guardian of your senses, your mobility, and your quality of life. Looking after it means looking after the way you experience everything around you.
