About Harvey Young Advanced Holistic Therapy
Harvey Says…
Welcome, and thank you for taking the time to learn more about my journey. My name is Harvey, and my path has been shaped by a deep passion for health and wellness, beginning in the world of yoga and evolving through fitness and, ultimately, chiropractic care.
I started my career as a yoga teacher, specialising in physical rehabilitation and alignment-based asana practice. Witnessing the transformation and recovery of the body sparked a profound interest in the power of movement and healing. As I further explored the science of kinetic movement, I gained a deeper understanding of the body’s remarkable potential for growth and recovery. This, coupled with a focus on the mind-body connection, guided me towards a holistic approach to health.
Now, as an experienced chiropractor with a specialisation in integrative medicine, my mission is clear: to combine the principles of yoga, the effective physical training, and the comprehensive benefits of chiropractic care into a personalised, seamless experience for each patient. My goal is to empower individuals to live their healthiest, most vibrant lives, and that remains at the heart of my work.

The amount of vitamin D you get from sun exposure depends on your skin type, the time of day, season, and even where you live. Here’s the lowdown:
- For fair to medium skin tones, 20 minutes of midday summer sun can sometimes produce 10,000 – 20,000 IU of vitamin D in ideal conditions.
- For darker skin tones, more time is often needed, as higher melanin levels naturally slow down vitamin D production.
Remember, everyone’s needs vary. Before considering vitamin D supplements, check with your healthcare provider.
Choosing the Right Pillow for a Healthier Neck
Selecting the right pillow can make a significant difference in your neck and spinal health. The goal is to use one thin pillow—this helps to keep your neck and spine in a more natural, neutral alignment as you sleep, which can reduce morning stiffness and discomfort.
If you often spend the day with a forward head posture (such as looking down at screens), you might feel more comfortable with a thicker or even multiple pillows. While that setup can relieve tension temporarily, it can reinforce poor posture habits in the long run.
Using a single, thinner pillow might take some getting used to, but it can gradually support better alignment not just at night, but throughout the day. Your spine will thank you in the long run!
Paracetamol poisoning, also known as acetaminophen poisoning, can occur when an excessive amount of paracetamol is ingested, either as a single large dose or through smaller, repeated doses over time. This can lead to an overdose or what is termed a ‘therapeutic excess’.
Initially, patients may not exhibit noticeable symptoms, or they may experience only mild gastrointestinal discomfort. However, if left untreated, paracetamol poisoning can result in severe liver damage within 2 to 4 days, potentially leading to fulminant hepatic failure — a life-threatening condition.
In the UK, it is estimated that between 82,000 and 90,000 individuals present with paracetamol poisoning each year. Acute liver failure is an extremely serious condition that can develop suddenly. While there are several possible causes, paracetamol overdose remains the most common. Globally, acetaminophen toxicity is the second leading cause of liver transplantation and the primary cause in the US.
If you suspect paracetamol poisoning, it is vital to seek medical attention immediately. Prompt intervention is crucial to prevent severe liver damage.
For those seeking holistic approaches to managing pain, consulting a registered chiropractor can be beneficial. Chiropractic care can help alleviate musculoskeletal pain, potentially reducing the need for frequent paracetamol use and lowering the risk of overdose.
