Chiropractic

WHAT IS CHIROPRACTIC?

Chiropractic is a straight-forward, safe and effective technique that focuses on the diagnosis, treatment and prevention of mechanical disorders of the musculoskeletal system, their effects on the nervous system and general health.

HOW CAN CHIROPRACTIC HELP?

Spinal joint disfunctions can interfere with the nervous system and result in many different conditions of decreased health such as seen below.

Manipulation is the technique used in the chiropractic adjustment to correct the disfunctions and fixations therefore reducing nerve impingement and increasing general health.

The chiropractor will assess and treat the cause of the symptoms opposed to solely treating the symptoms themselves and can decide whether the patient may benefit from another form of treatment (e.g. massage, acupuncture etc.)

The chiropractor may use further techniques in the treatment himself, including sports massage and dry needling, and will provide you with rehabilitative home exercises.

WHAT CONDITIONS DO CHIROPRACTORS TREAT?

Chiropractic has been proven to be effective in the treatment of the following:

* Acute, subacute and chronic low back pain
* Migraine
* Cervicogenic headache
* Cervicogenic dizziness
* Sciatica
* Extremity joint conditions
* Chronic neck pain

The timing of access to chiropractic care can determine the chronicity of the condition on the individual. Early access to a chiropractor can considerably improve the recovery time, therefore reducing the time patients are absent from work and allow them to return to their normal lifestyle.

There are many benefits that patients have identified with their chiropractic treatment, including:

* Decreased symptoms
* Improved range of motion (mobility)
* Improved sleep
* Improved control of joints
* Improved quality of life

Posture is the window to the spine and poor posture can be an indication of mechanical imbalances within the spine.

A free 15 minute posture assessment is available in our Chalfont St Peter clinic for anyone who would like to know more about their posture and what they can do to improve and maintain it.

If you have a particular condition you wish to discuss with the chiropractor such as back pain or general joint pain, this is also a great opportunity.
