Conditions

A wide range of conditions can benefit from chiropractic care. Although Chiropractic is not a cure, if vertebral dysfunction is present, interfering with the proper function of any part of the body, restoring proper nervous system control allows the body to heal itself. This can happen regardless of age and regardless of what the symptoms are called.

 

What conditions can Chiropractic help?

There are numerous ways in which Chiropractic can help you...

  • Chiropractic can help conditions throughout the musculoskeletal system.

  • Chiropractic care may help certain types of headache, in particular headaches caused by certain neck myofascial dysfunction (Cervicogenic headaches). Migraine symptoms are often alleviated by chiropractic.

  • Chiropractic has been shown to be effective for Cervicogenic dizziness (dizziness caused by myofascial disorders of the neck).

  • Chiropractic has in many cases shown to be beneficial for acute and sub-acute neck pain. General postural pain (neck and back) and 'tension' accounts for a lot of our presenting complaints.

  • Chiropractic has been shown to be clinically effective for acute, sub-acute and chronic low back pain.

  • Shoulder problems may be helped with chiropractic care, such as arthritic pain, rotator cuff pain, frozen shoulder (adhesive capsulitis), sports injuries and symptoms caused by overuse conditions. Chiropractors successfully treat more and more shoulder problems associated with postural and ergonomic dysfunction.

  • Chiropractic may alleviate many symptoms of common elbow or wrist conditions e.g. overuse / repetitive strain injuries such as tennis elbow (Lateral epicondylitis).

  • Postural problems can be alleviated with gentle adaptive treatment.

  • Hip and knee osteoarthritis has shown to be helped with chiropractic care.

  • Chiropractic care can be beneficial for many common lower limb problems such as plantar fasciitis and sports injuries e.g. patella femoral pain syndrome.
