Detoxification of Systematic Treatment Plan – HKBPPC Chiropractic Center’s Body Pain Treatment Program

HONG KONG SAR – Media OutReach – 28 April 2022 – HKBPPC Chiropractic Center has launched a body pain treatment plan, and a series of targeted treatment plans are tailored for each client. Pain problems are generally regarded as having no cure, and the random injection of medicines and stones may be useless. However, according to the explanation of the chiropractor of HKBPPC, most pain problems can be effectively alleviated and radically cured as long as the root cause is clarified and correct chiropractic techniques are used. Therefore, a personalized pain treatment plan is an effective strategy.

“Phubbers” are Overweight on Their Necks and Suffer From Neck Pain Before The Age of 40

About one tenth of Hong Kong’s population suffers from chronic pain disorders, that is, one in 10 people suffers from pain disorders. In the past, it was considered to be a pain for the elderly, but in 2017, it also showed a younger trend. HKBPPC is a chiropractic center in Hong Kong. They mentioned that according to the statistics of the Physiotherapy Department of Kowloon Hospital, among the 25,000 new cases every year, about 30% of the patients are under the age of 40, mainly due to neck pain (about 30%). two adults).

Prolonged use of mobile phones, tablets and game consoles is also one of the main causes of pain for patients. The normal head already weighs about 10-12 lbs. When the head is lowered to 15 degrees, the weight of the neck increases to about 27 lbs; at 30 degrees, the weight reaches about 40 lbs. The common use of electronic products is more than 20 degrees of head down, which will increase the weight of the neck and cause muscle tension, resulting in cervical vertebrae straightening, cervical vertebra dislocation, and muscle strain, etc., increasing the risk of neck pain.

The More You Press On The Pain Point, The More Painful You Get

Although the pain is difficult to handle when the pain occurs, daily life and emotions will also be affected. In order to completely cure the pain, many patients hope to seek help to solve the pain as soon as possible, ignoring the root cause of the pain.

Understanding why pain occurs is just as important as how it is treated, and the complexity of pain can sometimes be more difficult to diagnose. Take the common sciatica as an example. The sciatic nerve is the longest nerve line in the body. If the nerve line is damaged, it is easy to cause inflammation of the nearby soft tissues. Especially in the position of the pelvis, the nerve lines are dense and intricate, which increases the difficulty of diagnosing the affected area of ​​pain, and sometimes confuses the patient himself about the root position of the pain.

Therefore, HKBPPC, from the perspective of a professional chiropractor, treats patients with pain with the aim of “no surgery, no medicine, and no injections”. Chiropractor’s treatment methods provide targeted pain treatment according to the patient’s condition and cause.

Chiropractor Tailor-made Pain Treatment Plan

Through formal and detailed physical examinations, HKBPPC Chiropractic Center reveals the causes of pain and designs an exclusive personalized pain treatment plan for each pain patient. In addition to using professional diagnostic equipment for detailed examination, such as X-ray or magnetic resonance, it can accurately locate the affected area of ​​pain. At the same time, it will make a comprehensive understanding of the patient’s life, including daily posture, habits, onset time, and other accidental medical history, etc., to help speculate the cause of pain.

Based on all the data and information, HKBPPC Chiropractic Center and its chiropractors will consider a variety of treatment options, including spine adjustment, physical therapy, exercise therapy, etc., to formulate the most suitable treatment plan, and will also discuss with the patient the advice or attention to improving posture in life. matter.

About HKBPPC Chiropractic Center

HKBPPC Chiropractic Center focuses on the treatment of spine and other pain problems, and provides targeted treatment for patients under the premise of “no surgery, no medicine, and no injections”. At the same time, the center understands the important impact of spinal nerve health on bodily functions, and is committed to promoting the importance of spinal health and spine care advice to prevent spinal problems to the public, and to popularize the knowledge of spinal health to the society.

CPA Australia: Innovation and exports bolster small business growth prospects in Mainland China

BEIJING, MAINLAND CHINA – Media OutReach – 28 April 2022 – Mainland China had the highest proportion of small businesses that “grew or remained unchanged”, for the second consecutive year, according to a survey by CPA Australia, one of the world’s largest professional accounting organisations.

CPA Australia’s 13th Asia-Pacific Small Business Survey surveyed 4,252 small businesses owners or managers across the Asia-Pacific, including 766 from Mainland China, to understand their business conditions and confidence. The survey was conducted from November to December 2021.

Lloyd Peng FCPA (Aust.), Deputy President of CPA Australia’s North China Committee said, “The survey results reflect the resilience and stability of Mainland China’s small business sector over the past two years.

“Technology adoption and innovation are drivers of sustainable business growth. Our survey shows that Mainland Chinese small businesses are reaping the rewards of their innovative culture. Sixty-three per cent of respondents reported their investment in technology made the businesses more profitable in 2021, up from 57 per cent in 2020.

“Mainland Chinese small businesses have been leaders in online sales and using new payment technologies since 2018, and we expect this leading approach to continue. Nine in ten Mainland Chinese small businesses surveyed will or may introduce new products, processes or services this year, the second highest result among the markets surveyed.

“Although geopolitical and pandemic-related uncertainties continue to weigh on the global and domestic economy, we believe that the digital sophistication of Mainland China’s small businesses, their strong innovative culture and government’s relief support for SMEs such as R&D tax incentives will help them trade through this challenging period.”

Entering new markets was a major positive factor for Mainland Chinese businesses in 2021, and it is likely to continue this year. Lloyd said, “Before this wave of COVID-19 outbreak, fifty-six per cent of Mainland Chinese businesses predict their overseas sales will grow this year, ten percentage points higher than last year. This implies that export is a key factor to small business growth.

“With strong digital capabilities, policy support such as the newly released 23 measures to boost exports of small business sector by the Bank of China and the State Administration of Foreign Exchange, and opportunities from the Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership (RCEP), Mainland Chinese small businesses are in a good position to tap into new markets and diversify their customer base. For example, they could focus on the ASEAN market – Mainland China’s largest trading partner – where the pace of digitalisation has picked up in recent years.

“We recommend businesses seek professional advice, such as business consultants and accountants, to regularly review business strategies and assist them to better understand overseas markets, including regulations in those markets. This way, small businesses will stay on top of changes in the external environment and ensure risks are managed appropriately.

Increasing costs are a significant barrier to growth for small businesses in Mainland China. Kevin Ng FCPA (Aust.), member of CPA Australia’s North China Committee suggested, “The newly announced VAT credit refund program will not only cover existing taxes but will also cover new taxes. This timely initiative may relieve liquidity pressure for many small businesses and free-up capital to invest in areas of long-term growth such as technology and green development.”

Mainland Chinese small businesses were the most likely in the Asia-Pacific to spend time and resources on renewable energy investment in the past 12 months.

“We recommend Mainland Chinese businesses make full use of government support policies and relief measures on tax and financing, review their existing business model and make necessary changes to prepare for sustainable development in the future,” Ng commented.

Based on the characteristics of high growth small businesses from the survey results, we recommend that Mainland Chinese businesses:

  • Utilise business data to drive innovation in business operations, products and services
  • Identify and invest in technologies that suit your business
  • Increase revenue from overseas markets through e-commerce, especially RCEP markets
  • Seek professional advice to regularly review business strategies and opportunities.

She was joined by Mr Edward Yau, The Secretary for Commerce and Economic Development of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, and Mr Victor Tsang, Head of CreateHK, as Honourable Guests, and many other participants from local manufacturers, small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), and the design community.

In the Kick-off Ceremony, three webinars were also held with representative from the Mainland authority and industry leaders, to exchange views on the Mainland commerce and trade policies under the National “14th Five-Year Plan,” and the means by which to propel local original design in their endeavour to explore the GBA market.
