Chiropractic treatment involves assessment of the spine and other joints, together with related muscles and nerves. Practitioners may use manual techniques such as joint mobilisation or manipulation, soft-tissue work and exercise advice. Goals commonly include reducing pain, improving mobility and supporting everyday function.
After a consultation and examination, your chiropractor discusses findings and a plan. Techniques are selected according to your presentation and preferences. You should be informed about potential sensations, consent and aftercare, and encouraged to ask questions.
Chiropractic is complementary to, not a replacement for, medical care. Seek urgent attention for red-flag symptoms such as severe unexplained weakness, loss of bladder or bowel control or suspected fracture.
