McTimoney is a relatively gentle form of chiropractic using fast light movements to adjust the bones of the body. The McTimoney method is a whole body treatment which means that we assess the whole body and mobilize and adjust where needed. This treatment does not generally produce cavitations, which is the ‘click’ or ‘pop’ that you may experience with some techniques. Most patients seem to enjoy treatment and some have been known to snooze as they become so relaxed! (That even includes one patient who arrived at the clinic in such acute pain he was hardly able to sit down!).
Is it Right for Me?
I ask all new clients to call to discuss their needs first and this can help us to explore if my approach might be right for them. I also offer a free 20 minute consultation where they can meet me in the clinic to find out more.
Will it Hurt?
The treatment is generally not painful, however, if you are already in a lot of pain just moving around on the treatment couch can be painful. I work with everyone to adapt the treatment to allow for this and any other challenges.
