According to Jonathan Minnaert, a Medway parent who posted the results to several Medway Facebook pages, the infill material consists of 99.3 percent solids, but of the eight heavy metals tested for off-gassing, none came in at a high enough level to pose a concern.
Selectmen have countered that there have been no proven links between crumb rubber and cancer, citing state and federal agencies such as the Center for Disease Control and the Environmental Protection Agency that have not linked the material to cancer.

We don't think much about our shoulders until they start to give us pain. Most people immediately start looking for the best chiropractic care in Medway because they are always using their shoulders to lift and extend their arms, to carry, wave and perform numerous other motions and tasks. The shoulder is the most mobile joint in the body and as a result it is subject to a wide range of injuries and conditions.
Shoulder problems that go unchecked can lead to lifelong, debilitating issues. In order to properly treat the shoulder joint and achieve long-term relief it is important to identify the cause of shoulder pain. This article explains some of the common causes of shoulder pain and how chiropractic care can return the shoulder to functional health.
While a few of the items on this list may indicate localized swelling in the shoulder joint, more of them point to the spine as the probable source of pain. The nerves that control the shoulder originate in the spine. If the vertebrae around the neck and upper back are compressed or injured, the nerves that go to the shoulder will be irritated and cause pain. Even a minor spinal misalignment can interrupt communication between the nerves and the shoulder and a cascade of problems can begin. So, what appears as shoulder pain may actually be referred pain from the spinal column.
Due to the wide range of causative factors, shoulder pain and abnormal motion in the joint may develop gradually or come on suddenly. Symptoms of a shoulder injury are occasionally very subtle, but even these can develop into major issues. Since the shoulder joint is used in the vast majority of activities that we engage in daily, all symptoms involving the shoulder should be monitored carefully and treated promptly to avoid progression of the problem. Symptoms indicating the need for an immediate evaluation of the shoulder complex include:
Chiropractic care is a gentle and non-invasive alternative to medications and surgeries that provides fast and effective results. Medway chiropractors are trained to deal with issues in the spine and the shoulder complex that result in shoulder pain. In order to determine the cause of your shoulder pain, a chiropractic treatment begins with a thorough evaluation process, using information provided from your medical history, and advanced imaging techniques. Once a correct diagnosis is achieved it will then be used to develop an individualized treatment plan that will help ensure a fast recovery.
"Dr. Christy took a special interest in my health and well being right from the start, giving me a feeling of calm and welcoming. I knew I had found a different kind of chiropractor; I knew I was in good hands. Though I was only able to be under care for 6 months, I experienced tremendous results allowing my body to function better."
Stage 1: Applicants must be at school, sitting A levels/IB for the first time. There are requirements for A level/IB Higher level subjects, which are detailed as per group B requirements. Mixtures of A level/IB courses/other qualifications such as BTecs are not accepted, and T levels are also not accepted; only 3 A levels or the IB Diploma are accepted at level 3.
Applicants should normally be completing their course of A level/IB study in 2 years. If there is a reason for a longer period of study, an extenuating circumstances application (see below) will be needed. KMMS does not accept A level re-sits (except through extenuating circumstances policy, see below).
KMMS does not use predicted grades at all in selection. Achieved GCSE grades will therefore be used in the contextualisation process (see below). KMMS is happy to accept GCSE resits towards our minimum requirements. Please note that any GCSE resits used towards our entry requirements must be completed and the final results obtained prior to applying.
State schools in England report their GCSE attainment accurately and are audited for this; but many independent schools do not, for obscure reasons. Therefore, applicants from independent schools are contextualised against the GCSE/A level achievements publicised by their school, if possible for the relevant year, but if not, for any year for which information is available.
State schools in Wales currently have public data which can be used for contextualisation in group A. State schools in Scotland and Northern Ireland report their results variably and in a different format to English schools, and KMMS may make direct enquiries to those schools, or consider those applicants in group C.
KMMS will not accept applicants who present with A level or other Level 3 qualifications who have already completed Level 4 or higher qualifications, such as a Foundation course, or degree-level study. These applicants will need to present with an Access to HE (Medicine) qualification (see group C).
KMMS is happy to accept GCSE resits towards our minimum requirements. Please note that any GCSE resits used towards our entry requirements must be completed and the final results obtained prior to applying. KMMS does not accept A level resits, with the exception of consideration through the extenuating circumstances process if there were issues affecting the first A level sits.
State schools in Wales currently have public data which can be used for contextualisation in group B. State schools in Scotland and Northern Ireland report their results variably and in a different format to English schools, and KMMS may make direct enquiries to those schools, or consider those applicants in group C. Applicants from schools with inadequate IB data will also be considered in group C.
Stage 1: If you hold GCSE and/or A level or IB diploma but we do not have school data to enable contextualisation (for example,Scotland, and some Northern Irish schools) you will be in this group. We will treat you as far as possible in a similar way to groups A or B; using the same stage 1 minimum requirements.
KMMS will consider applicants with international secondary school qualifications according to their UK equivalencies (to AAB at A level, if possible) as per the University of Kent policies. Please see relevant country pages on the University of Kent website.
We will not consider applicants from Access to Medicine courses who have sat Level 3 examinations within the previous 3 years, in order to equalise opportunities with the graduate pathway applicants. We will consider candidates with a minimum of 45 credits at Level 3 with 30 credits at Distinction and 15 at Merit. Applicants should achieve 15 credits in Chemistry or Biology with at least 12 graded level 3 credits at Distinction. We will not consider applicants who have not already achieved their Access qualifications and are currently enrolled with pending results.
Stage 2b: Selection will be subjective, as no other reliable information is available. Your reference and personal statement will therefore be important in this process. Please ensure that these include all information you want to be considered in your application. KMMS reserves the right to specify an additional assessment for this group. This will be an online assessment, at no cost to the applicant, which was the CASPer test (Altus Assessments) in 2022-3.
Please see list of degrees accepted/not accepted belowWe will consider applicants who have a UK upper second class honours (or equivalent) degree in relevant subjects. We do not accept degrees in osteopathy, chiropractic, naturopathy, or other alternative/complementary medical practices. Accepted and non-accepted degree subjects in the previous cycles are detailed, but an exhaustive list is not possible, and degree specifications can change quite quickly. Therefore, this list is indicative only, and does not guarantee that KMMS will accept or not accept particular degree courses. KMMS will NOT check or approve degree transcripts prior to receipt of a formal application via UCAS. Degree transcripts will be requested as part of the selection process.
Graduates of universities outside the UK will require full degree transcripts and equivalency to 2:1 Hons established according to University of Kent criteria. Please see relevant country pages on the University of Kent website. They may also have to pass English language requirements. Please see information in group E for more details.
Intending applicants with non-accepted degree subjects are advised that their only pathway to KMMS is through the Access route (see group C). KMMS will not accept graduates presenting with A levels or other level 3 qualifications, even in subjects that they have not previously studied.
