Choice of Therapy.

Many people first come to see me wanting help with their aches and pains but often find that during the course of treatment that their other health problems are helped.  Headaches, period difficulties, digestive problems may all be helped by chiropractic treatment.

As a general rule I would begin by assessing a client from a chiropractic point of view and address any musculo-skeletal imbalances using McTimoney Chiropractic treatment. For many this approach provides all that is required to relieve their problem.

A smaller number of problems are more intractable and I may integrate Craniosacral Therapy into the treatment session.  This may be particularly be true in cases of whiplash, frozen shoulder, TMJ (jaw joint) problems for example, or anywhere where an imbalance is deeply held in the body.

There are other clients for whom Craniosacral Therapy may emerge as the therapy of choice.  This may be true for instance in cases of cranial trauma, Bell’s palsy (facial paralysis) or where areas are too delicate or too painful to be adjusted chiropractically.
