Chiropractic

Chiropractors treat mainly low back pain, neck pain and headaches but can also treat other conditions for example, rotator cuff impingement, knee pain and midback pain.  Many patients see a chiropractor to treat a repetitive strain injury (RSI) or for the sore neck and shoulders that result from postural strain.
