Limerick Chiropractic Clinic

Consultation

When you visit at our clinic for the first time, you will be asked for some personal information. The doctor will then spend time taking thorough medical history, including questions about accidents, illnesses and family medical history. All your details will be handled with the strictest confidentiality.

Examination

Thorough physical examination will concentrate on the joints, nerves and muscles of your body. Based on the findings the chiropractor will decide whether any additional investigations are necessary before treatment can begin. In some cases it may be necessary to contact your GP, which your chiropractor will do with your permission.

Report of findings

After reviewing all the information the chiropractor will explain everything to you in detail: what is the cause of your symptoms, what can be done about it, how long will it take, how much treatment is required and how much will it cost.

A treatment plan will be tailored to suit your specific needs. In some cases dietary and lifestyle changes may be discussed and in most cases simple home exercises will be prescribed in order to maximize your wellness potential. You will also be advised on how to best avoid future problems, aid your recovery and enjoy health for life.

Treatment

Chiropractic adjustment is the application of precise force in accurate direction on specific joint that is out of alignment or “fixated” (not moving properly). Adjustments will help the bones to realign, joints and nerves to regain their normal function and relieve pain and irritation.

Chiropractic treatment has been proven to be remarkably safe - much safer than taking pain killers! There are hundreds of ways to adjust the spine. Over years of training your doctor has mastered a variety of techniques and will use the ones most suitable for your age, size and specific problem.

After chiropractic treatment, many patients report increased general wellbeing -not just improvement with the problem that made them turn to chiropractic in the first place.
