Initial Examination and Scan

You will be asked for details of your previous medical history. There will be plenty of time to for you to explain what is wrong. After taking a thorough case history, our Chiropractor will perform a comprehensive examination and an in-depth biomechanical assessment to find out what is wrong and determine if Chiropractic is likely to help.

X-rays

These are taken at our Clinic by your qualified Chiropractor if visual information on your spine or joints is needed.

Report of Findings

This will be given at your second visit or later, if X-rays or further tests are needed. We will explain what is wrong, what can or cannot be done and what you should expect. Then the most appropriate treatment plan for your condition will be outlined.

Treatment

Treatment usually involves precise gentle manipulation, called an 'adjustment', of the spine or other joints. This is combined with advice and patient education.

Response to Treatment

Acute recent conditions often respond quickly and dramatically. Chronic longstanding problems generally take longer to respond. We can help most, though not all, patients even when other approaches have failed.

Check-ups

If your problem has become chronic (longstanding), or re-occurs frequently, you may benefit from periodic check-ups to maintain improvement - much like regular servicing for your car!

Rehabilitation

New research has shown Chiropractic plus rehabilitative exercise works best for chronic or frequently recurring problems. We employ evidence-based protocols which have been shown to be very effective for improving muscular strength and spinal stability.

Your GP

Most patients consult us on their own initiative after personal recommendation. Many GP's also refer patients. Where possible it is best to inform your GP

Refer a Friend

Most new patients are recommended by previous patients. We appreciate referrals of family and friends and offer a 'refer a friend' scheme. Please ask for more information when visiting.

Private Health Insurers

Most health insurance schemes cover Chiropractic yet individual policies vary. Please check with your insurer. You will need to see certain Chiropractors at Back 2 Balance, Hove for certain insurance firms, so please advise us as soon as possible of your insurance arrangements.

Fees

Fees are due for payment at each visit. Our pre-payment scheme can save you money off your treatments.

Free Health Care Classes

Back 2 Balance runs a fortnightly health class aimed at improving patients understanding of their spine and health issues.

The Class is a light-hearted way of interacting with people in a similar position to our patients as well as an ideal opportunity to have Chiropractic questions answered.
