WHAT IS McTIMONEY CHIROPRACTIC?

McTimoney Chiropractic is a gentle whole-body treatment and is used for the treatment and prevention of mechanical disorders of the musculoskeletal system and the effects of these disorders, on the function of the nervous system and general health.

The McTimoney approach to Chiropractic was developed by the late John McTimoney over 50 years ago. It is well known for being a precise, whole-body approach to chiropractic care. The gentle nature of Chiropractic the McTimoney way makes it suitable for people throughout their lifetime from babyhood to those in later life.

McTimoney Chiropractic training is currently offered in Abingdon, Oxfordshire, Manchester, Madrid and Hong Kong.

McTimoney Chiropractic is a primary health care profession concerned with the diagnosis, treatment and prevention of mechanical disorders of the musculoskeletal system, and the effects of these disorders on the function of the nervous system and general health.

McTimoney Chiropractors are trained to assess the neuro-musculoskeletal system and identify restrictions, imbalances and dysfunction and a chiropractic package of care involves spinal and peripheral joint adjustments, mobilisations, and application of soft tissue treatment and advice on exercise, self-help, diet and lifestyle where appropriate.

McTimoney Chiropractors do not use medicines or surgery, and the gentle manual approaches we use are extremely safe and comfortable to receive.

CHILDREN AND PREGNANCY

Aches and pains in children can be from the numerous bumps, falls and tumbles that are an inevitable part of childhood or from carrying heavy school bags, laptop use, gaming, sports or PE.

Most children easily shrug off the rough and tumble of daily life. As life progresses there can be incidents which can lead to niggling discomfort or more specific problems such as back or neck pain, migraines or headaches.

Children can experience the same aches and pains that adults do.

Pregnancy is an exciting time of great change in your body. Many women experience a range of musculoskeletal issues any time during pregnancy. The increased curve in your

back can lead to back pain, and increased movement in the joints of the pelvis due to the ligaments softening can lead to pain and discomfort around the pelvic girdle.

Many chiropractors have a special interest in paediatric and pregnancy care and are very experienced at assessing and caring for your individual needs.

LATER LIFE

Many of us enjoy excellent health throughout our lives and into later lives. However, as we age some of us may experience a reduction in our mobility and stiff joints. Chiropractic care may help maintain your mobility and well-being in later life. The gentle nature of chiropractic the McTimoney way makes it particularly suitable at this time in life even if you suffer from osteoporosis.
