back pain

Hello there! At our Abingdon Chiropractic Clinic, we understand that when patients come to us with back pain, they’re looking for more than just relief. They want a clear, personalised understanding of their condition, the treatment options available to them, and how they can actively participate in their own recovery [1]. We pride ourselves on providing exactly that level of care and information.

 

Chiropractic care for back pain gained significant scientific recognition through studies like the MRC trial, which compared chiropractic treatment with hospital care for managing low back pain [2]. 

 

It’s reassuring to know that chiropractic treatment is recommended in various national guidelines [3] as a proven method for managing back pain. This endorsement underscores the effectiveness and relevance of chiropractic care in helping patients find relief and regain their quality of life.

The approach that we use is a manual therapy approach. We examine our patients using our hands, seeking to find areas of the spine that are not working optimally. We then seek to improve spinal function with a combination, often, of spinal manipulation, massage techniques, and rehabilitative exercises. Sometimes we will use acupuncture and sports taping techniques [4].

 

How long will it take to get better? Most episodes of back pain and disability resolve within a couple of weeks [5], but back pain can come and go [6]. Our aim is to identify why you have back pain and help you to resolve the cause.

 

Some patients have conditions that resolve completely. Others have on-going issues due to wear and tear, or occupational hazards. Some of these patients may choose to come back to the chiropractor periodically.

This clinic has literally changed my life. I originally went there because I could hardly turn my head: reversing the car was really difficult! The clinic fixed my problem and I now go regularly to keep things in good shape. The annual check is also very useful and it is good to get the reassurance that there isn't much wrong despite my advancing years. I have no hesitation in recommending this clinic to anyone.

I have been a patient of Andrews for more than 15 years. He is always very friendly and welcoming, he takes time to ask you how you are and listens to your concerns. His holistic approach including acupuncture, massage and manipulation if necessary have certainly helped to keep me fit and active.

We have been going to Abingdon and Andrew for 30 years. He is always so professional and helpful. He diagnosed an issue via ultrasound for me and set me in the right direction for help. Would totally recommend this clinic and the fantastic staff.

I live in Malaysia but visit Abingdon every year. I had heard very good things about the Abingdon Chiropractic Clinic but I didn't realise how true they were until I had my first appointment with Andrew today! I was amazed at how professional and at the same time how friendly he is. The appointment didn't feel hurried and he took a wholistic approach. He discovered something about me in a few minutes that I hadn't known in my 61 years!! So wherever in the world you are from, if you're ever near Abingdon and need a chiropractor, look no further than the Abingdon Chiropractic Clinic. I thoroughly recommend it!
