Why Might I See A Chiropractor?
Chiropractic is a regulated health-care profession that specializes in the diagnosis, treatment and overall management of conditions that affect the joints, muscles and nervous system.
Your nervous system is so vital that key parts are protected by bone. Like a circuit breaker, physical, emotional or chemical stresses can cause spinal bones and discs to lose normal motion or position. This can upset nearby nerves.
This can adversely affect your health – even if you don’t have obvious symptoms. This is because if your nervous system doesn’t work right, you don’t work right. And when you don’t work right, you’re not healthy!
Chiropractic can help relieve pain, restore joint movement, improve nerve communication, and reduce susceptibility to injury.

Further Information About ChiropracticChiropractic is concerned with optimising the alignment of the skeletal system. It was developed by D.D.Palmer in 1895 who restored a patient's 17 year loss of hearing by manipulation and spinal adjustments. He believed that abnormal movements in specific joints (subluxations) interrupted the flow of nervous impulses and these were responsible for many health problems. By restoring the alignment of the spine, health problems could be overcome even if they were in other parts of the body, away from the spine.
In most cases spinal problems come about when the joints are put under excessive strain. This may have come about through accidents, traumas or injuries. Poor posture may be a contributing factor. This in turn may affect other joints, muscles, organs or tissues. Some health problems may not be caused by subluxations, but these may aggravate an existing condition.
The chiropractor will take a full case history and ask about relevant lifestyle factors. An X-ray may be taken. If appropriate to your condition, the spine will be manipulated with short, thrusting movements while you lie on a couch. Soft tissues may also be manipulated.
