York chiropractic primary health-care treatments
Chiropractic is a primary health-care profession, so you do not need to be referred by your doctor, instead you may approach us directly.
A chiropractor is trained to diagnose your problem using careful examinations and x-rays/MRI scans where appropriate, and will refer you to another health-care practitioner if necessary.
Joints, bones and muscle problems?
Chiropractors treat problems with joints, bones and muscles, and the effects they have on the nervous system. Working on all the joints of the body, concentrating particularly on the spine, chiropractors use their hands to often make gentle, specific manipulations, to restore normal function, relieve pain and aid the body's natural healing ability.
Treatments catered to you
Chiropractic treatment can involve a range of other techniques, including massage, exercise and stretching advice. Every patient is carefully assessed and, if suitable, an appropriate treatment plan is designed to maximize their potential benefit. We are confident that our friendly team will see you through to recovery.

Your Journey
Initial Consultation
The first time you visit us in York; one of our chiropractors will talk with you and take a detailed history of your problem. Some of the questions you are asked may seem irrelevant but they are extremely important for setting the correct treatment plan for you. To ensure chiropractic care is appropriate for your condition we will need to establish an overall health picture.
Physical Checkup
Once you have discussed the history of your problem with us, we will examine you to confirm any early ideas about your problem. Examinations may include checking movements of your body and a series of tests to help us understand the nature of the problem.
Discuss Treatment Plan
After this we will discuss with you the likely cause of your complaint and what can be done to help. Providing you are suitable for chiropractic care, the vast majority of patients are treated on their first visit.
Other Referral
If chiropractic appears not to be suitable for you, then you will be referred to your GP or relevant specialist.
