Your spinal column consists of 24 vertebrae that allow your body to twist, bend and go through every range of motion needed for a busy day. It also holds part of your central nervous system which, coordinates every muscle, tissue and organ function in the body.
The spine can easily become misaligned or lose its normal movement patterns – whether you’ve been in an accident, had a fall, have poor posture, or lead a sedentary or stressful lifestyle. This can lead to pain, stiffness, muscle spasms or irritated nerves, all of which will impact on your quality of life and prevent you from being in optimal health.
We do this through manual therapy, which we call adjustment, where we apply gentle force to specific vertebrae in the spine so they can move back into their correct alignment and movement patterns.
These chiropractic adjustments are very safe and non-invasive. Patients at our clinics of chiropractors in Solihull and Sutton Coldfield may sometimes hear a ‘popping’ sound, but this is only due to a release of gas close to a joint. If you don’t like these popping sounds, the chiropractor can use a different technique.
-
Lower back pain
Low back pain is the symptom most people complain about when they first see one of our chiropractors. The most common causes are often too much sitting or driving.
-
Neck pain
Neck pain and stiffness is being seen in all ages now as even the very young sit with heads bent over computers and smartphones. Improving neck movement and exercises are key.
-
Headaches
Chiropractic care can benefit people suffering with headaches caused by neck problems. A chiropractic examination will often reveal a loss of neck movement & tight muscles.
-
Migraines
Migraines can be incredibly debilitating and chiropractic care can help prevent migraines.
-
Sciatica
This usually starts as low back or buttock pain which often goes down the back of the leg. It is often excruciating but we can help with many cases.
In order to address the pain or other symptom that you have, such as reduced mobility or stiffness, we will undertake a detailed physical assessment, looking at the spine and all its associated joints, muscles, and ligaments, to understand the root cause of your issue.
Our primary goals at The Chiropractors Sutton Coldfield and Solihull are to realign the spine and get it moving better to work the way it should. But we’ll also ask you about your lifestyle, in order to understand how your symptoms may have arisen, and to advise on how you can minimise future issues.
Exercise will play a part in your recovery, and so it’s likely that we will recommend various exercises, specific to your needs, for you to do at home.
