Treating the cause, not the symptoms

Pain is a sign that something is wrong. The origin of pain is often from joints, muscles or nerves.
Painkilling drugs may mask the symptoms of a problem, but do not actually treat its cause.
Chiropractic works differently, and obtains pain relief by directly treating the origin of the pain.

Who can benefit from treatment?

Anyone from children to senior citizens that are experiencing pain, discomfort, stiffness, or in fact, any problem involving the muscles, joints and nerves, may benefit.

Do I need a GP referral?

No, chiropractors are primary healthcare professionals, so you can consult them directly. Some health insurance companies will require a letter from your GP, so if you are looking to claim back for the treatment, it is best to check your policy.
