PRIMARY CONDITIONS TREATED
Back pain, neck pain and headaches are extremely common and can be very debilitating symptoms. They are also the primary reason patients seek chiropractic care, along with sports injuries and certain paediatric conditions. The distinguishing features of chiropractic care that have allowed for having patient and public acceptance has been the ability to provide a readily available, caring and sympathetic, low cost, low risk, non-invasive and natural healing approach to relieving symptoms of back pain, neck pain and certain types of headache.

WHAT IS CHIROPRACTIC?
Chiropractic is a health profession specializing in the diagnosis, treatment and prevention of mechanical disorders of the musculoskeletal system and the effects of these disorders on the function of the nervous system and general health.
Chiropractic practitioners essentially rely upon non-invasive treatment methods and will refer patients to medical practitioners should medication or surgery be indicated. This approach is further reinforced by chiropractors in their promotion of healthy lifestyles, exercise and diet.
Chiropractic education and training is extensive and in South Africa, a Masters Degree in Chiropractic is awarded after a six-year program.
