What is McTimoney Chiropractic?

 

Chiropractic is a hands-on treatment aimed at improving nerve function by maintaining correct alignment of the spine and joints of the body. The McTimoney method that Martine uses is classed as a gentle treatment as the adjustments are achieved using speed and accuracy rather than force.

The nervous system helps to control and maintain wellness within the body. Although Martine's primary aim is to alleviate pain, promote natural healing and increase mobility, other health benefits can occur.

The McTimoney method is a great preventative treatment and it is easier to stop problems from starting than to fix them. We get our cars serviced even if we will trade them in after a few years, but we have our body for life so let's look after it and keep it working at its optimum.

 

What should I expect?

 

Your first treatment consists of a full case history (completely confidential) that will include your general health and symptoms of any conditions. A thorough examination of all your joints in the body and the systems of your body will be performed to get a better idea of your present condition and to formulate what treatment will then be needed. A treatment plan will be devised, tailored exactly to your needs.
