Back Pain can be one of the most debilitating of problems leading to stress, anxiety and more back pain. Many people can find themselves in this seemingly never ending cycle. This can be especially problematic for the self-employed as more and more working days are lost due to back pain.
But it does not have to be all bad news . . . we have seen thousands of patients over our years in practice and a very high percentage of those patients have found themselves back on the road to recovery – even when there seemed to be no light at the end of the tunnel.
The important point to remember is that the cause must be found and corrected.
To help find the cause of your pain we offer the following:
- Full Consulatation with a Doctor of Chiropractic
- Through Examination with Neurological, Orthopeadic & Blood Pressure Tests
- Spinal Scans
- Digital Foot Scans
- Full Postural Analysis
- X-Rays (if clinically indicated)
- A Detailed Verbal Report of our Findings and a thorough explanation of the X-Rays
After this, you should know more about your body and the problems you are experiencing.
Whether you go ahead with treatment is as always entirely your decision. If the care you require is outside of our scope, we will recommend you to the relevant healthcare professional.
