Chiropractic FAQs

Here are some answers to common questions we get asked..

What conditions can chiropractors treat?

Our experienced chiropractors at the Chiropractic Centre can treat a wide range of different conditions, from back pain, neck pain and recurrent headaches/migraines, to arthritis, fibromyalgia and diagnosed musculoskeletal disorders. Book an appointment to find out how we can help.

Does chiropractic treatment hurt?

Many people who haven’t had chiropractic treatment before worry that their sessions will be painful. However, treatment is usually painless unless an area is swollen.

You may experience slight discomfort as your body is manipulated, but this usually only lasts for a few moments. You may also hear clicking and popping sounds.

These are all perfectly normal and expected parts of chiropractic treatment and nothing to be concerned about, but if you have worries, please speak to your chiropractor on the day.

Is chiropractic treatment safe?

Absolutely, when it is performed by a trained and registered chiropractor. It’s quite normal to experience some aches, pains and stiffness after treatment as your body adjusts and starts to heal.

These side effects are usually mild and last for only a few days. If you have any pre-existing medical conditions, it’s important to talk to your chiropractor before starting treatment.

Do I need to get undressed to have chiropractic treatment?

Apart from when you have x-rays taken, you should not need to remove any clothing for your chiropractic treatment. Try to wear clothing that allows you to move freely and is not restrictive.

If you are unsure of what to wear please speak to our team ahead of your appointment, so that we can advise you on suitable clothing to wear and that we can take steps to make you feel as reassured as possible.

Can I bring someone with me?

If you would like or need to bring a friend or relative to support you during treatment, that is absolutely fine – we want you to feel as comfortable and at ease as possible.

In some instances, your chiropractor may want another person to act as a chaperone, or a clinical assistant to also be present. This will be discussed with you at your appointment.

Do I need to sign up for a whole treatment plan?

Most patients with acute pain or symptoms initially start with an intensive treatment plan to help them achieve the greatest improvement in their symptoms as quickly as possible. This may mean having a number of treatments over a fairly short timescale.

However, many of our patients then go on to have semi-regular, routine appointments to help them maintain optimal health and wellness.

For patients with chronic conditions, treatment plans tend to be longer-term. However, you can decide to stop treatment any time you like, and you will not be expected to pay for any treatment you haven’t received.

How much does chiropractic treatment cost?

The cost of your chiropractic treatment will depend on the nature of your treatment plan. You can discuss this with your chiropractor. We operate a transparent pricing policy and will always explain and agree on fees with you in advance of your treatments.
