When natural movement has been lost through injury, degenerative changes or poor posture it can lead to tightened muscles and ligaments that can restrict movement and cause pain. Chiropractic is a manipulative based treatment that aims to optimise how the body functions and moves.
Using Chiropractic Care
Chiropractors use their hands to adjust the joints of your spine and limbs where signs of restricted movement are found. Areas are treated using gentle, specific manipulation techniques to restore normal body movement. Treatment aims to make you move better and more freely.
Your whole body will usually be assessed not just the localised area of pain so that anything that could be connected to the cause of your problem is looked at and strategies identified to make it less likely to recur.
You will normally feel relief within 3-4 treatments but if you have leg or arm pain as well it may take longer.
When will you need a Chiropractor?
If your back or joints feel locked, stiff, and sore or maybe haven't responded to physiotherapy, then a consultation with a chiropractor is recommended.
