What is Chiropractic?

Below are listed some commonly asked questions with their answers.

What Is Chiropractic?

Chiropractic is a health profession concerned with the diagnosis, treatment and prevention of mechanical disorders of the musculoskeletal system and the effects of these disorders on the function of the nervous system and general health.

A chiropractor's first concern is to find out what is wrong with their patient. This includes checking for signs of any underlying disorder. If a patients condition is not one that Chiropractic can help they will have this explained to them and the appropriate 'next steps' will be taken.

Chiropractors are the experts in the detection and elimination of sublaxations ( stiff spinal joints), having made this phase of health care their specialty for more than 100 years.

How can chiropractic help you?
The foundation of health begins with a properly functioning nervous system. Without proper function of the nervous system pains and illness' develop. To 'repair' your nervous system and bring you back to health chiropractic care will promote the healing process by locating and removing any interference to the nervous system.

FAQ's

What is an adjustment?

This is the name given to the manipulation ('hands-on') procedure provided by the Chiropractor. Controlled pressure is applied at specific angles to painlessly correct joint alignment or mobility and enable healing.


How long does a treatment session last and how long is a course of treatment?

Treatment sessions normally take about 15 minutes, however the initial consultation can vary between 1/2 to 3/4 of an hour.

The Chiropractor will advise each patient on the course of treatment necessary. This often can vary with each particular condition. For example, 5-6 treatments may be suitable for a simple case of low back pain. However for a long-standing (chronic) condition of the same, more treatments may be necessary (6 - 12 is typical).


How long will it take to get better?

It depends upon each individual case, everyone is different. Factors to consider are:

* Type of condition present.
* How long you have been experiencing the pain
* Age and lifestyle of patient

Will my Doctor approve?

GP's are generally becoming more aware of chiropractic and the benefits that can be achieved.

You do not require a GP's referral before visiting a chiropractor.

We do receive lots of referrals from GP's and appreciate their acknowledgement of our expertise, likewise we sometimes have to send patients to their GP for conditions outside of our scope of practice.

We also have information to send any GP's or Consultants who would like to find out about Chiropractic. We are only a phone call away and will happily discuss any concerns at any time with anyone.


Who needs Chiropractic care?

Children and Adults alike can benefit from a healthy spine.


Should I continue care even if I feel better?

Absolutely!

Chiropractic Wellness can prevent relapses and avoid future problems. This is a similar idea to visiting your dentist regularly to best look after your teeth. We like to regularly look after your spine to avoid the recurrence of problems.
