On your first visit you will be classed as a new patient. As a new patient you will be given an hour long appointment. The Chiropractor will take a full medical history and carry out a comprehensive examination including orthopaedic and neurological tests. You will then be given a diagnosis and Chiropractic treatment plan if appropriate, the first treatment happens on the initial visit. The initial visit is one hour long and follow-up visits are always 30 minutes long. Everything will be explained to you along the way and you are not obliged to go ahead with treatment if you don’t want to. Chiropractic treatment usually involves deep tissue massage and joint mobilisation or manipulation. Other methods such as dry needling (using acupuncture needles), muscle release techniques or kinesiotaping may also be used. If there is anything you are uncomfortable with or dislike, you can always opt out. We usually go for the most effective method as the first port of call, but there is always another way! You may also be given stretches and exercises to do at home to compliment your treatment. At Taylor-Watson Chiropractic we take pride in educating our patients so that you will fully understand what’s going on every step of the way. No fancy words here!
Chiropractic is both safe and effective for all ages, and the treatment is tailored to suit you. In fact, a clinical trial funded by the Medical Research Council in 2004 and [published in the British Medical Journal found that manipulation was effective and also cost-effective for lower back pain. https://www.bmj.com/content/332/7555/1430
