What is McTimoney Chiropractic?
Many people believe chiroprators are only interested in
Back Pain & Back Pain Relief.
McTimoney Chiropractic is a method of adjusting bones, based on the theory that any problem, no matter how small or large can affect the whole body, we examine the whole body and adjust where needed. Adjustments are relatively quick, light and gentle and mainly done by hand. The bones are never forced into place, but by adjusting with a very rapid thrust and immediate release, the bone 'toggles' towards its correct position. By easing muscle tension and using the natural elasticity of tendons attached to the bone, the treatment is relatively gentle and comfortable to receive.
Anyone from babies to the elderly can benefit.
The nervous system controls the whole body and any interference to this system can cause irritation of the nerves.
These irritations in the body can occur at any time. They may be related to accidents, sporting activities, household tasks, emotional and physical stress, even a bad mattress. Some causes are so subtle that changes can occur without the patient's knowledge as symptoms can take years to arise.
When problems occur, a person can experience pain - of any description, of any duration, anywhere down the course of the nerve. This may lead to malfunction in either the muscles or internal organs. For example, tingling fingers can often be caused by problems with the neck vertebrae. McTimoney chiropractors aim to restore nerve function in order to promote natural health. This involves re-educating the patient's muscles and bones to encourage the body to use its own healing ability. It is also a preventive therapy and can greatly improve overall health and well-being. Regular check ups are recommended to ensure that the body maintains a healthy balance.
