what is chiropractic?

Chiropractic specialises in the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of mechanical disorders of joints, muscles, ligaments, tendons and nerve symptoms. It is a manual therapy with emphasis on the spine, which includes joint manipulation, soft tissue techniques, and advice on exercise, health and lifestyle. This primary healthcare profession provides an all-round whole body approach to your care.

Treatment can consist of a wide range of skilled manipulative techniques tailored to the individual’s problem. This means that people from all walks of life can benefit from Chiropractic care, from children to the elderly, sedentary workers to elite sports people and all groups in between. Chiropractic can also be of benefit through pregnancy and after.

During your first visit, your chiropractor will take a full case history, perform a thorough examination and discuss the best course of action to begin your treatment.

All chiropractors at Loughborough Chiropractic Clinic are registered with the General Chiropractic Council and The British Chiropractic Association, so that you have peace of mind when visiting us.
