McTimoney Chiropractic

McTimoney Chiropractic is a method devised to safely restore a patient's total structural integrity. Serious misalignment will often cause the body to compensate with subsequent minor adaptions and this is one of the main reasons why the whole body is assessed at each treatment. McTimoney Chiropractors check and subtly adjust bones and the skull, thorax, spine, pelvis and limbs, relieving subluxations throughout the entire structure.

The Aim of a Chiropractic Treatment

The aim of a McTimoney Chiropractic treatment is to remove any interference with the bodies nerve supply. If a nerve is compressed or stretched, however subtly, the information passing along the nerve fibre will be distorted giving false information to the organ or muscle it serves. Once these distortions are removed the body can function correctly.

Patients report a wide range of improvements, ranging from; relief from migraines, neck and shoulder problems, tennis elbow and carpal tunnel syndrome - all affected by nerves coming from the top of the spine, to low back pain, sciatica and menstrual problems - relieved by adjustments to the lower spine. These improvements occur because the body is no longer responding to incorrect nerve impulses.
