What is Chiropractic care?

Chiropractic is a primary health-care profession that specialises in the diagnosis, treatment and overall management of conditions that are due to problems with the joints, ligaments, tendons and nerves of the body, particularly those of the spine and pelvis.

Treatment consists of a wide range of manipulative techniques designed to improve the function of the joints, relieving pain and muscle spasm. Chiropractic does not involve the use of any drugs or surgery and Chiropractors are trained to both take and read X-rays as well as assessing your general health.

Consultation / Report of findings

The consultation involves a thorough health history, history of the pain you have presented with, orthopaedic, neurological and chiropractic assessments as well as assessment of your overall health.

In short no stone is left unturned and the cause of pain will be uncovered in order to ascertain how most effectively to treat it.

X-Ray / MRI

Where necessary patients can be referred for X-ray and MRI in order to better see what is causing the problem.

The report of findings usually occurs at the end of the consultation and this is where the chiropractor is able to outline:

The working diagnosis - a full explanation using diagrams and models etc so that you fully understand what has happened.
The plan of management
Risks and benefits of care
How many sessions it is likely to take
How you are likely to respond to treatment
Any other questions

Chiropractic care has been shown to be particularly effective for:

Back pain (Acute and chronic)
Neck pain
Shoulder and arm pain
