All evidence points to it being a safe and effective form of care when provided by registered chiropractors. The approach to care that chiropractors take is recommended in the relevant European guidelines and the Department of Health’s musculoskeletal service framework. Patients may experience some side effects such as feeling slightly more uncomfortable, stiff or tired for a day or so. These effects are normally minor and do not last for very long. It is important that you talk to your Chiropractor and to ask any questions during any part of your care.
