FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

What does a chiropractor do?  +

A chiropractor is a healthcare professional who focuses on diagnosing and treating musculoskeletal disorders, particularly those related to the spine. They use hands-on techniques to manipulate or mobilise the spine and other joints to improve function and alleviate pain. Chiropractors also provide advice on lifestyle changes, exercises, and stretches to support overall health and wellbeing.

How can a chiropractor help with back pain?  +

Chiropractors are trained to identify the root causes of back pain and develop a tailored treatment plan to address them. Through spinal manipulation and other manual therapies, they can relieve nerve related symptoms, reduce pain, and enhance mobility. Additionally, chiropractors may recommend specific exercises and stretches to strengthen the back and prevent future pain.

What does a chiropractor do for lower back pain?  +

For lower back pain, a chiropractor will typically begin with a thorough assessment to understand your specific condition. Treatment may involve spinal manipulation alongside soft tissue techniques to to address both joint and muscular contributors to your back pain. The goal is to alleviate pain and restore proper function, enabling you to engage in daily activities without discomfort.

Will the treatment hurt?  +

Most patients report minimal discomfort during chiropractic adjustments. While some techniques may involve manual pressure or a sensation of stretching, the overall experience is generally well-tolerated. After treatment, you may feel some soreness, similar to what one might experience after exercise, but this usually subsides quickly.

Will there be cracking?  +

Manipulation is a technique that can involve “cracking” or a “popping” sound. All treatment plans are tailored to each specific patient's needs and preferences. Therefore manipulation may be used if the case warrants it and the patient themselves is comfortable with its inclusion in the treatment plan. Alternatives to manipulation can be used if a patient prefers or if it is deemed unsuitable.

What techniques do you use?  +

At Ponteland Chiropractic, we employ a variety of techniques tailored to each patient's needs. These include:

  • Diversified Chiropractic Technique: This is a common method that involves specific spinal manipulation to reduce back pain and improve function.
  • Spinal Mobilisation: A method that uses slow and controlled movements to enhance joint mobility.
  • Thompson Technique: Utilises a special drop table to assist in spinal manipulation, providing a gentle and effective treatment.
  • Soft Tissue Therapy: Techniques focused on hands-on treatment as well as stretching and exercises targeting soft tissue contributors to pain or limited function

Our aim is to provide the most effective care for your specific condition, ensuring a comfortable and supportive experience throughout your chiropractic journey.
