Adjustments are the tool with which chiropractors use to correct subluxations and to improve the function of your spine and nervous system. Adjustments are designed to be as specific, effective and comfortable as possible.

The first thing that may spring to mind is that ‘chiropractors treat backs’. But chiropractors do much more than this: they are concerned with the framework of bones and muscles that support the body (the musculoskeletal system). So, even though they do treat backs – and very successfully – today’s chiropractors also diagnose and treat the symptoms of other musculoskeletal problems.
Chiropractors mainly treat:

  • Acute, subacute and chronic low back pain
  • Cervicogenic headache
  • Acute/subacute neck pain
  • Chronic neck pain

Chiropractic is a natural therapy that centres around the body’s own natural ability to function and heal itself. Chiropractic is based on the knowledge that misalignment or tension ( subluxation ) of the spine can interfere with the flow of information along the nerves and may dramatically affect the function of your body. Causes of subluxation can vary from minor interferences to major events, the three main types are:

  1. Physical stress – such as subtle repetitive movements, poor posture, falls and accidents.
  2. Mental and emotional stress – such as work and home pressure’s, upsets, arguments, and personal trauma.
  3. Chemical stress – such as toxins, enviromental pollution, drugs and alcohol.

Chiropractors take a ‘holistic’ approach to your health and wellbeing. This means that they consider your symptoms in the context of your full medical history, your lifestyle and your personal circumstances. Chiropractors can provide a ‘package’ of care that is based on the best available evidence. As well as physical manipulation, the full package of care includes advice about exercise. Chiropractors will aim to: reassure you; ease your distress by controlling your pain; help you get you back to your normal activities.

The chiropractor aims at improving the function of your spine, which helps to free the flow of information throughout your nervous system. This helps your body to better coordinate its functions, adapt to stress and heal itself.

You do not need to let your GP know unless you want to. Many GPs recommend chiropractic care to their patients. With your permission, your chiropractor may send a report to your GP, with details of your condition and the treatment you are receiving.

Some of the most common benefits include:

  • improved posture;
  • reduced tension and back pain;

  • reduced spinal degeneration;
  • greater ability to cope with stress;
  • higher productivity and performance.
