What is Chiropractic?
A system of complementary medicine based on the
diagnosis and manipulative treatment of
misalignments of the joints, especially those of
the spinal column, which are believed to cause
other disorders by affecting the nerves,
muscles, and organs.

Drop Techniques
A specific technique for adjustment of the full
spine on a special table. The adjusting table
with a segmented drop system quickly lowers the
section of the patients body corresponding with
the spinal region being adjusted. The
chiropractors thrusts (using minimal force)
initiates movement, and the fast drop of the
table carries the joint through the remainder of
its range of motion.

Blocking Techniques
Whilst the patient is lying down, wooden wedges
are skilfully placed in certain positions under
the pelvis. The pelvis is thus balanced gently
and naturally, using the patients own
bodyweight. This aims to restore natural
alignment and balance of the spine and pelvis
and thus normalise flow of CSF, an essential
nutrient-carrying fluid which bathes the brain
and spinal cord.

Acupuncture/Dry Needling
This technique combines modern western Trigger
Point theories with traditional Chinese
Acupuncture. Fine needles are inserted to
stimulate acupuncture points, creating a small
inflammatory reaction and stimulating the bodys
own pain relieving and anti- inflammatory
mechanisms. Acupuncture/Dry Needling works in
this instance by inhibiting some of the bodys
responses to the problem, particularly muscle
spasm and so relieving some of the pain and thus
allowing the Chiropractic Adjustments to work
unopposed.

Common Causes Of Hip Pain How Chiropractic Can
Help
The hips are extremely important. They help keep
your body upright, let you carry weight, run,
kick, play, jump, walk, and more. Theyre
basically a pivotal, load-bearing point in the
body. They come to use in almost every single
daily activity you engage in, which is why
having hip pain can feel quite crippling. Though
hip pain is commonly a result of injury or
osteoarthritis, it can also be caused by other
health conditions. Thats why you must never
ignore hip pain. Visiting a chiropractor can
help you greatly, as they focus on the source of
your hip pain rather than just the superficial
treatment of symptoms. They can develop a
tailor-fit plan for your condition
specifically. Here at Amersham Chiropractic
Centre, we believe in educating our audience as
well as treating them. This is why weve put
together this article to help you understand the
causes of hip pain and how chiropractic treatment
can help.
