Frequently Asked Questions

We’re here to answer your questions—but remember, nothing beats a proper consultation with one of our chiropractors. That’s the best way to get advice that’s specific to you.

What can a chiropractor help with?

Chiropractors are experts in diagnosing and treating problems with the joints, muscles, and nerves - especially those related to the spine.

We help people every day with back pain, neck pain, sciatica, headaches, joint stiffness, postural issues, and much more.

Do I need a GP referral?

No referral is needed. You can book directly with us at any time.

In fact, many GPs refer patients to us when they feel chiropractic care is the right next step.

What happens at the first appointment?

Your first visit includes a full consultation, examination, and any necessary testing.

We’ll listen carefully, assess the root cause of your problem, and explain everything clearly.

If we can help, we’ll lay out a personalised plan from day one - no guesswork, no surprises

How many sessions will I need?

That depends on your condition, your goals, and how long the problem has been there.

Unlike many clinics that work visit-by-visit, we give you a clear, upfront care plan so you know exactly what to expect.

Is chiropractic safe?

Yes. Chiropractic is one of the safest healthcare professions in the world. It’s a natural, non-invasive approach to helping people with back pain, neck pain, joint problems, headaches, and more - without the risks associated with surgery or long-term medication use.

In fact, the safety of chiropractic care is reflected in our professional insurance: chiropractors have some of the lowest medical malpractice premiums in healthcare. That’s because adverse effects are extremely rare.

At our clinic, your safety is always our top priority. All our chiropractors are fully registered, highly trained, and follow the highest standards of clinical care.

Should I come if I’m not in pain right now?

Absolutely. Chiropractic care isn’t just for people in pain. Many of our patients see us to stay well, move better, and prevent future problems before they start.

It’s also widely used to support performance - whether that’s improving posture, mobility, focus, or recovery. From office workers to athletes, people use chiropractic to stay at their best physically and mentally.

We focus on long-term health and function, not just short-term relief.

What does treatment involve?

Chiropractic treatment is about more than just short-term relief - it’s about helping your body heal, stay strong, and function at its best.

Your care plan will be tailored specifically to you. It usually includes hands-on chiropractic adjustments, as well as everything you need to get better and stay better:

At-home exercises to support your progress
Postural correction to reduce ongoing strain
Targeted strengthening to build stability and resilience, so your body can better handle the stresses of daily life

Our goal isn’t just to get you out of pain - it’s to help you stay well long into the future.

Which chiropractic techniques do you use?

Our team is highly trained in a wide range of chiropractic techniques, including the latest evidence-based approaches. Every adjustment or treatment method we use is carefully chosen to match your specific needs, symptoms, and comfort level.

We commonly draw from:

Diversified adjustments – precise, hands-on spinal corrections
Gentle joint mobilisations and soft tissue techniques
Instrument-assisted methods (like the Activator) for low‑force, targeted care

We don’t take a one-size-fits-all approach. Your chiropractor will explain exactly what they’re doing and why - so you always feel informed and in control.

Our team regularly trains together with some of the leading chiropractic educators in the world, and we are known for our exceptionally high clinical standards. You’re in expert hands.

Can children or pregnant women safely see a chiropractor?

Yes. Chiropractic care is safe and effective for patients of all ages - from infants to the elderly.

For children, we use gentle, age-appropriate techniques to support healthy movement, posture, and development.

For pregnant women, care is always tailored to your comfort and stage of pregnancy. We focus on easing strain, improving pelvic alignment, and supporting your body through each trimester.

We’ll always make sure you understand your options and give you all the information you need to make the decision that feels right for you. If appropriate, we’re also happy to work in consultation with your midwife or other healthcare providers - ensuring your care is fully supported from every angle.

Does chiropractic treatment hurt?

Chiropractic treatment is rarely uncomfortable. Most people find it relieving, gentle, and easier than they expected.

Sometimes, when previously stiff or “stuck” joints start moving again, they can feel a little sore. It’s a bit like going to the gym for the first time in a while - you might feel it afterward, but it’s a sign your body is changing and responding.

Any post-treatment soreness is usually mild and short-lived. And if anything doesn’t feel right, just let us know - we’ll always adapt the technique to suit you.

How long until I notice improvements?

Some patients feel changes after their very first session, while others see results build steadily over time. It depends on the nature of your condition, how long it’s been there, and how consistent you are with your care plan. During your consultation, we’ll give you a realistic, personalised timeline for improvement.

What if chiropractic isn’t right for me?

If we don’t think we’re the right fit for your condition, we’ll tell you—openly and honestly. We’ll always put your health first and refer you to another trusted healthcare provider if we believe it’s the better path forward.

Still have questions?

The best way to get answers is to speak with a chiropractor.
