Chiropractic at The Parker Clinic in Bristol

Back Pain is the largest single cause of disability in the UK

Back pain can have many causes, but in the absence of injury, poor posture and a sedentary lifestyle are often the main culprits. With more people working desk jobs and spending hours on screens, it’s easy to sit for hours at a time. Our bodies are designed to move, and long periods of inactivity can strain the spine. Our bodies adapt to daily stresses, often without us noticing, but when something goes wrong, back pain can be a wake-up call.

Back pain can be tough to deal with, but with chiropractic care, it can be treated naturally and effectively.

At The Parker Clinic, we’ll listen to your concerns and conduct a thorough exam to pinpoint the cause of your pain. Once we understand the issue, we’ll create a personalised treatment plan just for you. We use specific spinal adjustments to restore movement and function to your spine.

Neck pain, headaches and migraine

Neck pain affects 30-50% of adults each year. Long periods of inactivity—especially from holding the neck in a forward flexed position—can lead to neck pain and be associated with headaches. Within our clinic, we are seeing more teens with neck pain and wonder if this could be related to phone use.

We’ll perform a thorough exam to identify the cause of your pain. Together, we’ll create a personalized plan to improve spinal function and restore normal posture and movement.

Although the exact cause of migraines still eludes us, chiropractic has been shown to help prevent migraines.

Joint pain

We understand how joint pain can keep you from living a full, active life. Through a thorough exam, we’ll identify the cause of your pain and develop a personalized treatment plan to help you reach your goals. Together, we’ll work to improve joint function, reduce muscle tension and restore movement.

Our experienced team treats a wide range of joint injuries, including sprains, strains, arthritis, and minor sports-related injuries. We focus on relieving pain, improving mobility, and helping you recover so you can get back to your daily activities.

Chiropractic has been shown to be effective at helping joint pain, including:

  • Hip and Knee pain from osteoarthritis
  • Shoulder complaints, including rotator cuff and other soft tissue disorders
  • Elbow pain and tennis elbow associated with spinal conditions
  • Ankle sprains
  • Plantar fasciitis
