Chiropractic is a primary health care discipline which utilises the highest level of evidence in the provision of effective patient evaluation and care. Chiropractors specialise in the diagnosis, prevention and treatment of mechanical disorders of the spine, joints and muscles.
Clinical evidence has consistently demonstrated the safety and effectiveness of chiropractic care
Chiropractic treatments consist of gentle manipulation techniques known as adjustments to restore function, mobility and balance to joints. During an adjustment, the pressure within the joint space changes and sometimes patients report a ‘clicking’ noise. This is the sound of air being released from within a joint and is not normally painful.
Chiropractic management also includes rehabilitative exercises, patient education, lifestyle modification and the use of physical therapies and supports. There is an emphasis on health promotion and early return to activities for injured patients. The focus on education and patient empowerment is an important factor in the success of chiropractic management and the high levels of patient satisfaction.
Muscular and skeletal problems can be progressive disorders, building up over a period of time due to work, poor posture and recreation. For long term disorders the key is to seek help prior to noticeable pain and disability. With the help and assistance of your chiropractor you may be able to alter the cycle of pain and disability using earlytreatment.
What Chiropractors treat
With 58% of people in the UK suffering from BACK PAIN at some time in their lives, it is no surprise that this is by far the most common complaint chiropractors are asked to treat. Chiropractors successfully and regularly treat:
- Back Pain
- Neck Pain
- Sciatica
- Disc Problems/Injuries
- Trapped Nerves
- Headache
- Whiplash
- Arthritic Pain
- Frozen Shoulder
- Rheumatic Pain
- Joint Pain

Timely access to chiropractic care can prevent chronicity and in so doing, reduce the negative impact these chronic conditions can have on individuals. Early intervention through chiropractic care can reduce the length of time that people are absent from work as a result of back pain. This will facilitate an early return to normal everyday activities.
Chiropractic patients identify several benefits following chiropractic treatment, including:
- Decreased Pain
- Increased Range of Movement
- Reduced Disability
- Improved Quality of Life
- Additionally, some patients report improvements in overall wellbeing.
What to look out for
Back pain is not always due to a serious cause with the level of pain a poor indicator of the severity. However, please be aware that if you have any of the following symptoms, you should contact your chiropractor or GP immediately:
- You feel generally unwell, such as if you have a fever/night sweats as well as severe pain
- You lose control of your bowel or bladder
- You feel numb or have pins and needles in the saddle region (genitals/back passage)
