There are two categories of people that generally attend for Chiropractic care.

Firstly, for pain – whether that has occurred recently (Acute) or ongoing pain (Chronic).

Generally with acute pain it can be from a recent injury, change of activity (work or job) or excessive activity or excessive rest. 

In most cases, acute pain is slightly higher in intensity but can be reduced a lot easier than chronic pain.

Chronic pain is classified as occurring longer than 3 months. It can be more from a combination of factors, like past injuries, stressors, posture, activity levels & more. 

This pain tends to be lower in intensity but requires a multi-modal approach to recovery (a combination of treatments and techniques, and sometimes adjunct  practitioners).

Secondly, patients attend the clinic for health & wellbeing reasons. This may be to increase their joint mobility, improve their posture or reduce general stiffness. We usually do this with a combination of treatment with exercises.

We give Chiropractic care to both Acute and Chronic pain patients, as well as those wanting to improve their general health & wellbeing.
