What is Chiropractic and What to Expect

One of our chiropractors will take your “case history”. This is an opportunity to discuss all of the different aspects of your life that might affect how you feel and the challenges you face. Again this will help you and your chiropractor to create a plan ensuring your treatment is tailored exactly to your needs. You will then undergo a thorough physical examination taking into account all the different aspects of your health. This examination will help to work out exactly what is going on so that again with your chiropractor you can tailor a care plan to suit your needs. At Active Care Chiropractic our aim is to help you feel as good as you possibly can – and will work with you to develop a plan to achieve this. Our clinic is focussed on getting you the best care for you, meaning if we feel that you are unlikely to benefit from Chiropractic (or one of our other specialist techniques) we will do our best to suggest an alternative health professional to visit. If one of our chiropractors feels you require imaging such as an X-Ray or MRI Scan then this will be discussed and we can even help to organise this for you.

Before any treatment begins it is very important that you completely understand everything. You will therefore be given a thorough and detailed “report of findings” in which everything will be explained to you as clearly as possible. Your initial visit will last approximately 45 minutes to an hour. Subsequent appointments generally last 15 minutes. If at any time during any stage of your treatment you have any questions or would like to discuss anything with your Chiropractor then always feel free to ask.
