💭 “Is chiropractic safe?”
It’s one of the most common questions people ask when considering care.

When it comes to managing back and neck pain, all treatments carry some level of risk. To help you make informed decisions, here’s how chiropractic compares with other common interventions…

▪️Chiropractic treatment: serious side effects occur in 1 in 476,000 treatments (Chu et al., 2023). No strokes or cauda equina reported.

▪️Spinal surgery: 3–5 in 100 risk complications

▪️Opioids: up to 1 in 4 risk long-term dependence

▪️Paracetamol: limited benefit, 1–4 in 100 risk of liver stress

🔎 Chiropractors in the UK are regulated by the General Chiropractic Council (GCC) and complete years of training to ensure safe, evidence-based care.

What most patients notice? Temporary muscle soreness - like the ache after exercise - followed by a sense of relief and freedom to move again.

No healthcare option is completely risk-free, but the data shows chiropractic is a low-risk, effective choice for many.

👉 Explore your options, ask questions, and make the decision that feels right for you.

Vitamin D ☀️
Vitamin D is critical for our immune health, our bones and mental health. During the summer we have the potential to make our own from the sun, but how can we do this safely and effectively?
We make vitamin D naturally when sunlight hits our unprotected skin. The only time it is strong enough to do this is between 11am and 4pm between April and September, when the sun is high in the sky and strong. Outside of these times and these months you make no vitamin D.

you, the UVB rays are too weak to make any vitamin D.

How often should you visit a Chiropractor?
When you first see your chiropractor, you may be among the many people who ask, ‘how often do I need to come?’ Often the answer people want to hear is ‘once’ but chiropractic care, like most things that are really good for us, rarely makes a longterm difference to your health and wellness after just one visit!

One reason a single visit to your chiropractor may not make a long-term change is that it usually takes years for the problem to develop that motivates someone to first see a chiropractor and it can take many visits to the chiropractor to correct that problem.

An amazing review for Dr Emily Coleman, chiropractor 🤩

16/07/2025

what is maintenance care?
If you end up in pain after bending down to tie your shoelaces your pain hasn’t just come out of the blue, it’s usually been developing for some time without you knowing about it. It’s often the thousandth straw that breaks the camel’s back.
All of life’s stressors can build up and impact the way your brain is communicating with your trunk muscles and then all that is needed is one last minor thing to go wrong, and you end up with pain. The goal of maintenance care is to help take the straws off your camels back before they cause symptoms or have a big impact on your life. So, the research tells us that chiropractic maintenance care makes perfect sense.
