Chiropractic

Chiropractic comes from the Greek ‘Geir’ and ‘Prattein’. This stands for ‘hand’ and ‘act’, describing well that we treat with our hands. It is a medicine based on dosed mechanical impulses. This eliminates communication disorders in the spinal column. It involves blockages in the nervous system and joints, causing pain and other complaints.

The pain and complaints you experience lead to problems with your musculoskeletal system. We help this to function optimally again, so that your health improves. We do not use any unnecessary medicines or (harmful) chemicals. Instead, we treat with our hands, like 65,000 chiropractors around the world. This makes it the largest and most widely used medicine in the world after classical medicine and dentistry.

What is chiropractic?

What is chiropractic and how do our chiropractors treat? We treat with printing techniques. We use them to get rid of pain points in the body. We manipulate the nervous system and the joints, with which complaints are reduced or even disappear completely. These complaints are the symptoms of an underlying cause. By tackling the cause, the complaints disappear and we also help prevent them from now on.

Before we can treat from chiropractic, we conduct extensive research into what is going on in your body. We do that in a few different ways.

With the investigation we provide insight into what is going on. That is the most important starting point for the treatment. We specifically find out what’s going on. Sometimes there is an underlying cause that has not come to light before. For example, lower back pain can be caused in many ways, including pelvic problems. We determine exactly what it is. To treat very specifically on the basis of chiropractic.

Is the treatment safe?

Chiropractic treatment is completely safe. We treat with our hands. That is what experienced chiropractors do, who have completed years of university studies. And what’s more, they have always received an international university education from us. In addition, we are members of the Dutch associations of chiropractors (NCA). In this way we are continuously informed of new insights, both for the treatments and in the field of safety.

We do not use (harmful) chemicals or other unnecessary medicines. Instead, we stimulate the body to become healthier. We remove blockages, giving the body itself the chance to recover. The cause of the pain disappears, as a result of which the symptoms will also decrease and will be completely eliminated. Moreover, we prevent the pain from returning in the long term.

Is it true that the chiropractor will ”crack” me?

It is true that a slight crackling sound can be heard during chiropractic treatment. It is a completely painless and safe process. The sound is created by air escaping, like a champagne bottle being uncorked. That means that this is in no way dangerous for the body. It is a completely safe method, which helps to remove the blockages that may be present in the body.
