Avon View Chiropractic at William and Mary

As a chiropractor, Harry uses a number of techniques to help you feel better. Treatment may consist of spinal manipulation or adjusting, massage and soft tissue therapies or acupuncture.

These various techniques are used in conjunction (depending on your condition) to create a tailor-made treatment programme that best addresses your treatment needs.

Chiropractic adjustments have been throughout the profession’s history and over the years had been shown to be a safe and effective method for the treatment of back pain, neck pain and headaches.

NICE (The National Institute for Clinical Excellence ) recently published guidelines recommending the use of manipulation such as that used by chiropractors in patients with persistent low back pain.

Harry has also been trained to use dry needling which is a western approach to acupuncture. This technique can be very useful in relieving muscle spasm and tightness and can be used in conjunction with chiropractic care.

Your First Visit

The first session of your chiropractic care is based around finding out the root of your pain. A detailed history and thorough examination ensure that we leave no stone unturned in getting to the bottom of your condition.

Once the examination is completed, a comprehensive explanation of your condition and the treatments that will be used will be given. This will explain in a straightforward manner exactly what is causing your pain and how we intend to treat it. Treatment will almost always commence during the first session and consists of a range of therapies, including; joint manipulation, acupuncture and massage therapy.

Once your symptoms begin to reduce, exercises will be introduced to improve posture and core stability helping to prevent further recurrences of pain.
