FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Is Chiropractic Safe?
Chiropractic is generally very safe when performed correctly by a trained and registered Chiropractor. Information from your medical history and examination allows your Chiropractor to determine whether you have any pre-existing medical conditions that may affect the selection of treatment techniques ensuring treatment is appropriate for you. It is therefore very important that you provide accurate information. All discussions are completely confidential.
Does treatment involve getting undressed?
It is helpful for us to see your spine when assessing you, to examine changes in muscle tone and movement patterns. We offer gowns to allow us to see the spinal area but would also request that you also wear loose fitting or gym style shorts or trousers for your appointments so we can assess mobility more effectively.
Will the treatment hurt?
Examination and treatment is usually painless, but if the area of focus is inflamed and irritable then treatment can be sore. Your Chiropractor will tailor your treatment to your tolerance levels and may use ice before treatment starts in order to help reduce any discomfort.
Some people can experience post-treatment soreness, stiffness, and sometimes headaches. This is temporary
How many treatments do I need?
Following your examination, your Chiropractor will propose an initial plan for care. This is different for each condition and is affected by individual factors including previous injuries, age, smoking, health status and other provoking lifestyle factors.
MICHELLE
Lovely receptionist upon contacting Marlborough chiropractic clinic, very accommodating friendly and extremely knowledgeable.
Josh was very professional, efficient, welcoming and easy to talk to with a very caring nature. The whole process was explained in detail and carried out perfectly. I would highly recommend and am very grateful to have visited the Marlborough Chiropractic Clinic
DAVID
I was introduced to Sophie through the recommendation of a very good friend. I had limited mobility in some joints and constant aches that impacted my movements in others. As a 68 year old less than fit male Sophie has managed with regular focused interventions and a range of targeted exercises to help me regain my mobility. I feel fitter and healthier and much more able to be an active grandad
