What and Who can it treat?
People of all ages can benefit from chiropractic treatment, from pregnant women, babies and children to adults and elderly people. And chiropractic helps more than bad backs!
The most common conditions treated with chiropractic care are:
- Sciatica (painful inflammation of the sciatic nerve which runs from the buttocks to the toes. Pain can be felt in the leg, lower back, buttocks, hip, calf and sometimes right down to the toes.)
- Back pain
- Leg pain
- Disc problems
- Trapped and /or pinched nerves
- Pregnancy (when the dramatic changes in a womans body as the baby grows, lead to changes in posture, which cause persistent back pain and tension headaches in many women.)
- Babies with infantile colic (persistent and often violent crying for no apparent reason in otherwise healthy infants, usually between one week and four months old)
- Children with conditions like asthma and allergies, bedwetting and ear infections
- Sports injuries: frozen shoulder, tennis elbow, injuries of hips, knees or ankles
- Whiplash injuries
- Neck pain
- Headaches, migraine, tension headaches, pins and needles, numbness and tingling
