What is Chiropractic?
About Chiropractors
Chiropractors are qualified health professionals who can assess, diagnose and treat a wide range of conditions, such as back and neck pain, headaches, minor sports injuries and sciatica. Learn more about a chiropractic examination.
Chiropractic treatment can be beneficial for a number of reasons; relieving symptoms of pain and discomfort, improving mobility and reducing disability associated with muscle and joint problems.
How can a chiropractor help you?
Chiropractors are trained to use a range of techniques when treating their patients. They are best known for using manual methods of care, including spinal and joint manipulation (also referred to as ‘adjustment’) but may also use other hands-on or instrument-assisted approaches. Learn more about chiropractic manipulation.
Many chiropractors will also provide lifestyle advice and exercises to help you manage your condition. This may include dietary and nutritional advice as well as strategies to manage stress and discomfort.
Before starting treatment, a chiropractor will assess your symptoms to determine if chiropractic treatment is right for you and your condition, and what techniques are most likely to help.
Chiropractors are trained to recognise when chiropractic treatment will not help a medical condition and will make a referral to your General Practitioner or another healthcare professional, if necessary.
Choosing a Chiropractor
Chiropractors are regulated healthcare professionals. To practise in the UK, a chiropractor must be qualified and registered with the GCC. It is illegal for anyone to describe themselves as a chiropractor without being registered with the GCC.
When choosing a chiropractor, it is essential that you check to ensure that they are registered with the GCC. Look out for the I’m Registered mark during your search and find out if a chiropractor is registered with the GCC at www.gcc-uk.org/find-a-chiropractor.

Chiropractors use a range of techniques to reduce pain, improve function and increase mobility, including hands-on manipulation of the spine. As well as manual treatment, chiropractors are able to offer a package of care which includes advice on self-help, therapeutic exercises and lifestyle changes.
Chiropractic treatment involves safe, often gentle, specific spinal manipulation to free joints in the spine or other areas of the body that are not moving properly. Apart from manipulation, chiropractors may use a variety of techniques including soft tissue release ice, heat, rehabilitative exercise as well as advice about posture and lifestyle.
Our goal is to help you achieve your health and wellness goals so that you can live your best life.

Rehab
It is often important to strengthen and condition your back following an episode of back pain.
Eliminating symptoms and building your body to become more resilient to future injury requires a different and more active approach.
To support our colleagues in the NHS, chiropractors can provide those suffering with musculoskeletal conditions, particularly back and neck pain, an alternative solution. We understand currently it can be difficult getting hold of your GP and patients often have to wait weeks or months to be given treatment. Chiropractors are supporting the NHS as part of an integrated system.
