Patients often ask us “Do I need to see a Chiropractor forever?” The answer is no! We have many patients who only choose to come and see us when they are in pain or have a niggle. However, others continue to receive ongoing treatment when they realise the other ways in which it can help them.

There have been many times in clinic where patients have said to us something like this “I would love my mum to come and see you, but I expect she’s too old for Chiropractic.” But the truth is that nobody is too old or too young to have Chiropractic care!

A chiropractic adjustment is used by Chiropractors to restore spinal alignment to improve nervous system function.  In simple terms, restoring the alignment of your spine means that the brain can more effectively communicate with the body, allowing you to move well, heal efficiently and improve your posture.

When patients first attend for a consultation, they often say to us they aren’t sure if they are in the right place or if we will be able to help them. There is often an assumption that you only see a Chiropractor if you have a bad back, but this is often the case because people don’t actually know what Chiropractic is!
