Chiropractic is a profession specialising in the diagnosis and management of conditions that are due to problems with the joints, ligaments, tendons and nerves of the body, particularly those of the spine. Treatment consists of a wide range of manipulative techniques designed to improve the function of the joints, relieving pain & muscle spasm.

There is a considerable scientific body of evidence regarding chiropractic care (spinal manipulation) in both Europe and North America; some recommend spinal manipulation as a first "line of defence" in treating spinal conditions. Major clinical studies comparing chiropractic care of spinal ailments with other commonly used treatments have been carried out in the UK and published in the British Medical Journal. These studies have proven that chiropractic care provides excellent results and is also cost-effective.

"...chiropractic has been demonstrated to be more effective for the management of lower back pain than conventional hospital outpatient care"  -  British Medical Journal, 2004. "...spinal manipulation is a cost effective addition to "best care" for back pain"  -  British Medical Journal, 2004.
