What is Chiropractic?

Focus is also towards the wider context of a person's health, and how the function of the spine and its unique relationship with the nervous system can affect this..

What does a Chiropractor do?

Chiropractors use a range of techniques to improve function, increase mobility and reduce pain. Primarily this involves safe, specific spinal manipulation known as a chiropractic adjustment. Care often involves a package of chiropractic adjustments, self-help, therapeutic exercises and lifestyle changes.

Do I need a referral to see a chiropractor?

Chiropractic is a primary healthcare profession, which means you don't need a referral from a GP or any other health care professional in order to book an appointment and access care straight away.

What qualifications and regulations do Chiropractors have?

Chiropractic is regulated by The General Chiropractic Council (GCC). All chiropractors are required to hold a specific qualification and be registered with the GCC. The GCC is an independent body responsible for setting the standards in all stages of chiropractic education, and then to ensure the standards of practice in the profession. Our chiropractors are also members of the British Chiropractic Association.
