How can a Chiropractor help me?

Chiropractors are famed for helping with neck and back pain but there is so much more to Chiropractic care than these two areas. A growing body of research demonstrates that Chiropractic is effective and safe for treating many musculoskeletal condition.

Chiropractic derives from the Greek words “cheir” (hand) and “praxis” (practice) to describe a treatment done by hand. This is done by specific manipulation and mobilisation of the spine. Often other treatment modalities are used such as massage, dry needling, and corrective exercises, followed by postural and lifestyle advice to build a complete treatment plan catered for the specific patient.

Will it hurt?
 
It is considered to be one of the safest drug-free, non-invasive therapies in order to treat musculoskeletal complaints. As with all health treatments, there can be some side effects post treatment, typically feeling a little achy or tired for 24 hours, as you would after exercising. Most patients experience immediate relief following their treatment.
