When performed by a qualified chiropractor, spinal manipulation is a highly safe and effective treatment option to loosen stiff joints, relax tight muscles, increase joint mobility and reduce pain levels. The chiropractic profession has strong links with this type of therapy. Modern, evidence-based chiropractors still offer this treatment type but it is usually always as part of a much wider package of care involving a more complete range of treatment or management strategies. 

Joint manipulation therapy involves applying a rapid but gentle impulse to a joint, which is often accompanied by small 'popping' sound. This treatment type is not suitable for every patient or in every situation. At Tenby Chiropractic we will make sure manipulation therapy is suitable for you before offering it.

Similar to manipulation, mobilisations involve creating movement in a joint. Unlike manipulation, mobilisations are slow, rhythmical motions. They are used to loosen stiff joints, promote joint health by stimulating blood flow and joint fluid production, and soothe pain by desensitising sensitive tissues. We use a wide range of mobilisation techniques at Tenby Chiropractic, either instead of or alongside manipulation therapy. 

Sports massage techniques are highly effective for easing tight, aching muscles and improving flexibility. Sports massage includes a range of deep tissue massage techniques, and advanced stretching  methods. Our chiropractor holds a Level-4 Sports Massage qualification. We often incorporate sports massage techniques into our care plans to enhance recovery, relieve tension, and help patients achieve the best possible results. Sometimes the problem isn't in a joint; it's in a muscle - we are fully able to help with both of these kinds of problem. 

We place a strong emphasis on getting our patients active and moving well. No package of care is complete without helping you become resilient, self-sufficient, and confident in tackling daily life. Whether you're a top-level athlete or a regular person, exercise is central to all evidence-based musculoskeletal care, and it takes many forms – from targeted rehabilitation programs to healthy exercise habits, sports participation, stretching, and general mobility work and more.

At Tenby Chiropractic, we integrate safe and achievable exercise into almost everything we do, supported by our fully equipped rehabilitation gym. Our goal is to give you confidence and control over your recovery, so you can move better and feel stronger in the long term. We provide our patients with personalised, achievable exercise plans to help them achieve their goals.
