What Is Chiropractic?

‘Chiropractic is a health profession concerned with the diagnosis, treatment and prevention of mechanical disorders of the musculoskeletal system, and the effects of these disorders on the function of the nervous system and general health’ (General Chiropractic Council – GCC).

Chiropractors are known for working on joints, muscles and the nervous system to help alleviate pain and to help the body restore itself to a fully functioning unit.

Chiropractors may use adjustments of manipulation, although there are a number of techniques which can be utilised for each specific individual and presenting complaint.
