SERVICES

Welcome to Shield Chiropractic Clinic

Shield Chiropractic Clinic is dedicated to providing high quality Chiropractic care in a welcoming atmosphere for all the family. Our team of highly trained Chiropractors and support staff are here to help you with all aspects of your Chiropractic care. All our chiropractors have a minimum of four years full-time training and are registered with the General Chiropractic Council (the body which administers the Chiropractors act 1994).


What can I expect

Chiropractic care mainly involves treatment by specific manipulation to the joints of the spine or other areas of the body. This is called an "Adjustment". Most often, this involves a short impulse to the joint, often resulting in an audible 'crack' as the joint is released, bringing relief of symptoms and an increased feeling of well-being. The 'crack' is simply the sound of bubbles of gas popping in the fluid of the joint as the pressure is released. Adjustments help restore proper spinal and nervous system function, promoting the healing process.

Most of us are a little worried whenever we encounter a new treatment, you are not alone if you are a little apprehensive at this point. Before any procedure is undertaken your chiropractor will completely inform you of what to expect when your receive your first adjustment.

Generally, a chiropractic adjustment does not hurt - although there may be some minor short-term discomfort, which quickly passes for most patients. You will find that ensuing treatments are much more pleasant - and this will certainly be aided by your feeling more at ease with your chiropractor, as well as starting to feel that your symptoms are subsiding.

Apart from the adjustment, your chiropractor may use a wide variety of techniques - including ice and heat, massage and exercises - amongst many other options. If you have questions about any of these procedures simply ask your chiropractor for an explanation.
