Bury St Edmunds Chiropractic Clinic

Have you been injured when exercising? Chiropractic may help you return quickly to your favourite sport or exercise. A specialist approach to the mechanical problems that may arise during pregnancy when your body is rapidly adapting to stresses of a growing baby. A specialist soft tissue technique utilising metal instruments to reduce the chronic changes that occur in damaged or hypertonic muscles.

Chiropractic is about restoring the normal function of the joints primarily around the spine and pelvis, on patients of any age, from new-born babies to senior citizens. Both acute (sudden immediate pain) and chronic (long term) conditions may respond to the types of treatments that a chiropractor can offer.

We at the clinic aim to make your first visit a calm and rewarding experience and the staff are here to help you though the process. Your fist visit is a longer one. We need to have as much relevant information about you and your problem as possible, so that and accurate diagnosis can be made and the appropriate treatment offered to you.

An individual who wishes to perform at his or her best in the sporting arena, whether they can run faster, jump higher, throw further, or hit harder than their fellow competitors either as an enthusiastic amateur or as an accomplished professional, may suffer and injury at any time.

A chiropractor is ideally placed to assess the sportsperson to ensure that they are performing at his or her very best so they can achieve the optimum performance for that individual.The skills of the chiropractor in assessing mechanical and functional performance can help any sports person to ensure that the athlete is not putting excessive pressure on weak areas so opening up the individual to the possibility of further injury.

This is a rapidly expanding technology now available to practitioners to allow visualisation of the soft tissues: ligament, tendons and muscles around the joints.

Akin to the ultrasound scan given to pregnant women, this allows the skilled clinician to see the tissues as they are in "real time", to identify pathology where it is present around the joints which leads to not only a more accurate diagnosis but consequently a more accurate treatment programme.
