Back Pain
Why Back Pain Happens
Back pain is estimated to affect up to 95% of us at some point in our lives and it is one of the most common reasons people choose to visit a chiropractor. You may have had a fall or trip, have poor ergonomics at work, lifted something too heavy for you or simply noticed that the backache you have always had is not going away this time. You may be pregnant or just be feeling your years.
Whatever the cause, back pain can interfere with every part of your daily life. The good news? Chiropractic treatment is safe, effective, and recommended by NICE (National Institute for Health and Care Excellence) for both short-term relief and long-term management of back pain, with or without sciatica.

What to expect from your treatment
Patient Stories
Excellent, friendly service. Got an appointment quickly when I really needed one and has made a world of difference to my recovery. Heather takes time to understand the issue, and what you as a patient want to get out of the treatment. In my case, developing exercises and a strategy for preventing the issues from reoccurring. Brilliant all round
Paul Massam
Heather is amazing, she eases the physical pain with knowledge and a laugh, which eases the emotional pain too. I would have been so stuck without her, and am happy to recommend her to everyone. And don't forget the team that answer phones, make appointments, and generally keep the ship afloat. Thank you to all.
