Our goal is to expertly assess and diagnose your pain in order to provide the best form of chiropractic care to get you better, out of pain and feeling at your best. Our non-surgical treatment aims to reduce pain and symptoms leaving you feeling much better after just a short initial course of treatment.

your back discomfort
On our initial consultation, we perform a number of tests to determine the main areas affected. This will help us address the symptoms in the most proficient and optimal manner to get you back to feeling and functioning at your best. The main assessments involve checking spinal movement and determining where joint movement is restricted, particularly in the lower back vertebrae and pelvic joints.
We will also assess your muscle function to see where there is tension and functional weakness. Joint restriction and muscle tension are two of the biggest causes of back problems. Our approach looks at the body in its entirety because a holistic approach means we can get to the root cause of the problem and aim to get a long-term resolution, not simply short-term pain relief.
We offer a range of treatments, gradually introducing different techniques to both strengthen and solidify the areas and structures around the spine which support your chiropractic treatment. You can trust the team at Innate Health who have worked wonders for so many patients with our varied treatment approach.
What is causing my back pain?
Most cases of back pain are classified as ‘mechanical’ and are the result of accumulated stress on the spine. Most commonly we see lower back problems associated with long periods of sitting (such as office workers), because sitting involves more loading in the spine. This over time leads to compression of the joints and discs, accumulation of muscle tension, and postural changes or imbalance.
Back pain can also result from sprains or strains to the soft tissues, improper or overloaded movement such as lifting, and as a consequence of ‘wear and tear’ (age-related or trauma-related degeneration).
The Sciatic Nerve
Sciatica tends to affect one side of your body, it can happen when a herniated disk, a bone spur or the spine compresses and presses against the sciatic nerve. It can cause a lot of pain including inflammation, back pain and numbness.
At Innate Health we strive to provide the best diagnosis and treatment from our highly trained and experienced team. For more information, call us today.

my back alongside chiropractic care
Ensuring that you are fit and active is important for your spine. Contrary to popular belief, bed rest is not advised for most back pain cases. Indeed strengthening and stretching your spine with exercise is shown to help in many cases of back pain
This can include yoga, pilates, core stability and strengthening exercises, as well as more general fitness like walking, cycling, gardening and sports.
