Dr Stav is primarily interested in providing pain relief to his clients, as most people tend to consult him chiefly to obtain respite from pain. “It is easy to treat the pain and improve function, as in most cases pain is a symptom of a deeper issue, but the real question is: just how healthy and strong does this person wish to be?”
His deeper interest lies in health and longevity. “The health criteria is what the individual will do for themselves to maintain and improve their own health”, says Dr Stav (Doctor of Chiropractic).
Dr Stav's early years were spent learning Asian combat systems and their exercise regimen called Qi Gong (Chi Gung), which strengthens and heals the body/mind complex, refining mental, emotional, and physical vitality, coordination and health. This led to studies in self-actualisation and meditation programs and methods:
Dr Stav Mihaletos, D.C. (Doctor of Chiropractic), also has a keen interest in meditation, Ashtanga Yoga (a branch of Hatha Yoga) and HIIT kettlebell exercises.
Currently, Dr Stav has developed his Qi Gong practice into a practical rehabilitation and exercise regimen for patients and lay people alike. He has 40 years of experience in his Qi Gong practice, and he has completed modules in DNS (Dynamic Neuromuscular Stabilisation), one of the first rehabilitation protocols and methods in Europe, which originated in Prague, Czech Republic, after WW1. He teaches Qi Gong in Belper, Derbyshire.
Dr Stav (Doctor of Chiropractic) believes that an anti-inflammatory lifestyle, nutrition, exercise, sleep and stress management patterns are responsible for most of our modern-day health conditions, and even, in some cases, musculoskeletal pain. These may be reversed in some cases by making very simple changes.
