When Your Back Starts Running Your Life
Low back pain is not just pain in your back. It can affect how you sleep, how you sit, how you walk, how you work, and how confident you feel doing ordinary things.
You may find yourself thinking before you bend, bracing before you stand, avoiding jobs you used to do without a second thought, or worrying that one wrong movement will set everything off again.
You may have tried painkillers, stretches, massage, exercises, rest, heat, YouTube videos or advice from friends. Some things may have helped for a while. Some may have done very little. Some may have left you more confused.
If that sounds familiar, the next useful step may be to stop guessing and have your back properly assessed.
- You find yourself thinking before you bend.
- You brace yourself before you stand.
- You avoid tasks you used to do without a second thought.
- You worry one wrong move will set everything off again.
How We Help
My work is built around helping your spine and body function as well as possible. Depending on what I find, care may involve gentle spinal techniques, soft tissue work, movement advice, simple exercises, posture guidance, and practical changes to reduce the load on your back. The aim is not simply to chase short-term relief. It is to understand what your back is struggling with and support a steadier recovery.
- Improve how your back moves where appropriate
- Reduce unnecessary guarding and tension
- Help you understand what may be aggravating the problem
- Give you simple exercises or advice where useful
- Help you rebuild confidence in ordinary movement
- Create a plan that fits your body, age, history and goals
Some people need only a little help; others benefit from a more structured period of care. Meaningful change often takes time. Where a structured plan is appropriate, I will explain it clearly and you will not be pushed into it.
OUR METHODOLOGY
Gentle Care Without Cracking Or Forceful Twisting
Gentle, Precise Techniques
Many people delay seeing a chiropractor because they are worried about being twisted, cracked, rushed, or pushed into something they do not want. That is not how I work. My approach is gentle and precise. I use techniques designed to work with your body rather than force it. You stay clothed, comfortable, and in control throughout.
No Cracking or Forceful Twisting
The aim is to support easier movement, reduce unnecessary strain on the system, and help your body feel safer moving again. Where possible, we seek to reduce unnecessary guarding so the spine can organise itself more easily.
Working With Your Body
I cannot promise a specific cure or guaranteed outcome, but I aim to give your body a better chance to settle by encouraging gentle reorganisation and reducing unnecessary strain on the system.
What To Expect On The Day
Why Start With A Spinal Health Assessment?
Before I recommend care, I want to understand what is happening. At your first visit, I will take time to listen to your history, examine how your spine and body are moving, look for signs that chiropractic care is suitable, and explain what I find in plain English. If appropriate, your assessment also includes your first gentle treatment. By the end of the visit, you should have a clearer understanding of: what may be contributing to your low back pain; whether gentle chiropractic care is appropriate; what your next step should be; whether I believe I can help; what to expect if you choose to continue. If I do not believe chiropractic care is right for you, or if I do not believe I can help, I will tell you honestly and refund your assessment fee.
- Relaxed conversation
- Movement checks
- Gentle hands-on assessment
- First gentle treatment if appropriate

HONEST ANSWERS
Common Questions
If you are feeling unsure about taking the next step, you aren't alone. Here are the honest answers to what most people ask me before they book an assessment.
Will you crack my back?
No. My approach is gentle and precise. I do not use forceful twisting or cracking. Many people choose Your Spinal Health because they want help with their back but feel nervous about traditional manipulation.
Will I need to get undressed?
No. You can stay clothed for your assessment and treatment. Please wear comfortable clothing where possible.
What happens at the first visit?
A relaxed conversation about your back pain, health history and goals; movement and functional checks; gentle hands-on assessment; your first gentle treatment, if appropriate; a clear explanation in plain English; honest advice about whether I believe I can help; a recommended next step, with no pressure. Allow 30 minutes.
Is the first visit really £65?
Yes. The first visit is £65 and includes the Spinal Health Assessment and the first gentle treatment where appropriate.
What does the £65 include?
It includes your Spinal Health Assessment, your first gentle treatment where appropriate, and a clear explanation of what I find. If I do not believe chiropractic care is appropriate for you, or if I do not believe I can help, your £65 fee is refunded.
What if chiropractic care is not right for me?
If I do not believe chiropractic care is appropriate, I will tell you honestly and refund your assessment fee.
How many visits will I need?
Everyone is different. Some people need only a small number of visits; others benefit from a more structured period of care. At your assessment I will explain what I think is appropriate and why.
Do I have to sign up to a long programme?
No. There are no long-term contracts. I will explain what I believe is appropriate, but the decision is always yours.
Is it suitable if I am older or nervous?
Yes. My approach is gentle and can be adapted for older people or those who are nervous.
What if I have osteoporosis or previous surgery?
Bring any relevant history to the assessment. I will explain whether chiropractic care is suitable and, if not, discuss other options or refer you as needed.
What if I have tried physiotherapy, osteopathy or chiropractic before?
Many people have tried other approaches. At the assessment we will discuss what has and hasn't helped and look for the best next step for you.
How quickly will I feel better?
Everyone is different. Some people notice changes quickly; others take longer, especially for problems that have been building for months or years. I will explain what I think is realistic for you.
When should I seek urgent medical help?
If your back pain is linked with sudden weakness, numbness around the saddle area, changes in bladder or bowel control, fever, unexplained weight loss, significant trauma, or rapidly worsening symptoms, seek urgent medical advice.
