Sudden, severe "thunderclap" onset
Fever, stiff neck, confusion, or seizures
Significant head trauma or injury
Neurological symptoms (vision changes, weakness, numbness, difficulty speaking)
Progressive worsening without relief
First occurrence after age 50
These may indicate serious conditions requiring urgent medical intervention beyond chiropractic scope.
Based on guidance from the Advertising Standards Authority (ASA) and the General Chiropractic Council (GCC), chiropractic care may assist with musculoskeletal contributors to:
Cervicogenic (neck-related) headache
Tension-type headache
Musculoskeletal neck and back discomfort
Joint pains of musculoskeletal origin
Chiropractic care does not treat infectious diseases, systemic illnesses, internal organ dysfunction, cardiovascular emergencies, neurological conditions outside musculoskeletal scope, psychological conditions, or acute traumatic injuries requiring emergency intervention.
If your condition falls outside our scope of practice, we will refer you to an appropriate healthcare professional.
Every individual is unique. Responses to chiropractic assessment and care vary significantly between patients. While we strive to provide supportive, gentle care, we cannot guarantee specific results. Statements about typical experiences should not be interpreted as guarantees.
Chiropractic care is generally safe when provided by registered practitioners. Potential risks may include temporary soreness or mild discomfort following assessment. Serious complications are exceptionally uncommon when treatment is delivered by GCC-registered professionals.
At Your Spinal Health, we utilise gentle, non-forceful techniques adapted to each individual's tolerance and response.
