Say Bye Bye to Back Pain.
If you are experiencing the misery of back pain, you are not alone. Affecting around 80% of people at some stage during their lifetime, this equates to around 52 million people in the UK alone and has been increasing over the past five years.
Pain may begin abruptly as a result of an accident or by lifting something heavy, or it can develop over time due to age-related changes of the spine or lifestyle factors. Men and women are equally affected, it can range widely from a mild constant ache to severe incapacitating pain but in all cases, it has a profound and debilitating impact on daily life.
Chiropractic care is very effective at treating the root cause of Back Pain.
What we can do to help
It used to be commonly thought that back pain would naturally resolve itself over time.
However, more recent studies have discovered that if left untreated, while the pain may temporarily subside the underlying cause will eventually resurface, and potentially with increased symptoms and pain.

The benefits of chiropractic for back pain
Chiropractic care offers a natural and effective approach to finding relief from back pain, here are some of the main benefits of choosing chiropractic care for your back pain.
01
Targeted Pain Relief
Chiropractic adjustments are renowned for their ability to provide targeted pain relief. By addressing misalignments in the spine (subluxations), chiropractors aim to alleviate pressure on nerves and surrounding tissues. This targeted approach helps reduce inflammation and promotes the body’s natural healing processes, offering swift and sustainable relief from back pain.
02
Improved Spinal Function
A healthy spine is crucial for overall well-being. Chiropractic care focuses on restoring proper alignment and function to the spine. Through precise adjustments, chiropractors work to enhance spinal mobility, reduce stiffness, and improve overall flexibility. This not only tackles existing back pain but also helps prevent future issues, fostering a spine that’s more resilient to daily stress.
03
Holistic Approach to Wellness
Chiropractic care embraces a holistic approach to health, recognising the interconnectedness of the body. Beyond symptom relief, chiropractors assess lifestyle factors, stress, and other elements that may contribute to back pain. By addressing these underlying issues, chiropractic care aims not only to alleviate immediate discomfort but also to promote long-term wellness, empowering patients to take an active role in their health.
04
Drug-Free Pain Management
In an era where reliance on medication is common, chiropractic care stands out as a drug-free alternative. Chiropractors emphasise natural, non-invasive techniques to manage and alleviate back pain. By avoiding pharmaceutical interventions, patients can sidestep potential side effects and dependencies, choosing a path that aligns with the body’s innate ability to heal.
05
Personalised Treatment
No two individuals are the same, and neither are their experiences with back pain. Chiropractors recognise this and tailor treatment plans to each patient’s specific needs. Through a thorough assessment, at your consultation including examinations and discussions about lifestyle, chiropractors craft personalised treatments that target the root causes of your back pain.

About your back & spine
The spine is one of the most important parts of your body, keeping yourself upright whilst allowing movement and flexibility.
The normal spine has an “S”-like curve when looking at it from the side, this allows for an even distribution of weight. The “S” curve helps a healthy spine withstand all kinds of stress, even though the lower portion of your spine holds most of the body’s weight, each segment relies upon the strength of the others to function properly.
The main function of the spine is protecting the spinal chord which acts as a column of nerves connecting your brain and body.
