How Chiropractic helps
Chiropractic care helps to reduce and improve pain by addressing the root cause of musculoskeletal problems. By using specific adjustment techniques, chiropractors realign the spine and other joints, relieve pressure on sensitive neurological tissue, and improve the body's overall function.
This non-invasive approach to pain management has been shown to be effective for a wide range of conditions, including back pain, neck pain, headaches, arthritis, and more. In addition to reducing pain, chiropractic care also helps to improve function in the body by restoring proper alignment and balance. This improved function can lead to increased mobility, better posture, and reduced risk of future injury. By addressing the underlying cause of pain, chiropractic care helps to not only relieve symptoms but also improve overall health and well-being.

The Process
Step 1: Assessment - Your first visit includes a thorough case history and detailed assessment to determine the direct cause of your problem, and the steps needed to correct and fix it.
Step 2: Adjustment - Once we locate the issue, we clear away any dysfunction in the body by way of adjustments. The specific techniques chosen will depends on your age, conditions and preference, though adjustments are generally quick and painless. Step 3: Improve - Once we clear the dysfunction we work to improve the area by providing strengthening, mobility and stretching tools. It is important to clear a dysfunction first, before strengthening. You do not want to strengthen a dysfunction. Step 4: Prevent - Our goal is to not only get you well, but keep you well, offering education and advice on how to account for your own personal health to prevent any future relapses or injuries. |

Areas of specialisation
Dr Edward Benson-Cooper is also certified in SFMA protocol (Selective Functional Movement Assessment), a movement based diagnostic system which systematically finds the cause of pain - not just the source - by logically breaking down dysfunctional movement patterns in a structured, repeatable assessment. This system allows us to identify the correct problems - mobility versus motor control – to best equip clinicians for a successful outcome.
