Frequently Asked Questions

  • Is Chiropractic Suitable for me?
    If you are alive; yes. Chiropractic is suitable for all body types, all ages and all levels of health. It does NOT aim to treat conditions but to improve the function of the whole being, by improving function of the spine and the nervous system.
  • How long is my first visit?
    Usually around 30 minutes. We will also book you in for your Doctor’s Report Appointment which is included in your New Patient Package. This will also last approximately 30 minutes. Subsequent visits are mercifully shorter and it is our aim to have you in and out in as convenient a time as possible.
  • Will I be sore the first night?
    Quite often you will leave the first adjustment feeling improved. Sometimes though the focal area can elicit an inflammation reaction causing some discomfort for a few hours later on. Icing the area can help but it is very hit and miss as to who will need to do this. If you are concerned following an adjustment appointment, please contact us and we will be happy to help and advise.
  • Does Chiropractic hurt?
    Usually no, but please remember that sometimes if you are in a lot of pain then anything might hurt. Our practitioners are highly trained and experienced and aim to ensure you have the most comfortable and enjoyable experience possible.
  • Do I have to remove my clothes?
    No. During normal adjustment visits patients will normally remain fully clothed.
  • How many visits will I need?
    This will depend on several factors including: - How healthy you are before starting care? - How proactive you are in your attitude to your health? - How old you are? - How healthy you want to be? - Your diet!! - Your posture!! - What negative lifestyle factors you indulge in such as tobacco, alcohol, sugar, processed food? - Your attitude to reaching your health goals.
