Our Approach — Evidence-Based Care You Can Trust

At Tenby Chiropractic, we understand that every patient is unique, which is why we develop custom treatment plans tailored to your individual needs and goals. Our expert chiropractor will work with you to create a plan that works for you.

Tenby Chiropractic follows an evidence-based approach, meaning we combine:

✔ High-quality scientific research
✔ The clinical expertise of our experienced practitioners
✔ Your personal goals and preferences

For many conditions like low back pain, we closely follow NICE and WHO guidelines, which recommend options such as spinal manipulation, rehabilitation exercise, advice, and — where appropriate — diagnostic imaging to guide your care. We also utilise the Royal College of Chiropractors standards and guidance as we continually strive to achieve best-practice standards.

With evidence-based chiropractic care,  you can expect us to offer a complete package of care, not just a single treatment option. You can also expect us to be thorough.

We don’t guess. We assess, explain, and guide your recovery using proven, professional methods.

When administered by a qualified chiropractor, Spinal Manipulation Therapy is a highly safe and effective treatment option to loosen stiff joints, increase joint mobility and reduce pain levels. The chiropractic profession has strong historical links with this type of therapy. While modern evidence-based chiropractors still offer this treatment type, it is typically always as part of a much wider package of care involving a range of treatment or management options. Manipulation therapy involves applying a rapid but gentle impulse to a joint, often accompanied by small cracking sound.

Similar to manipulation, mobilisations are slow, rhythmical motions to loosen stiff joints, promote joint health, and soothe pain. We use a wide range of mobilisation techniques at Tenby Chiropractic, either instead of, or, in conjunction with manipulation therapy. 

Sports Massage techniques are highly effective at loosening tight, aching muscles. Our chiropractors hold additional Level-4 Sports Massage qualifications from reputable colleges in formal academic programs, taught in a real-world physical learning environment. At Tenby Chiropractic we frequently use Sports Massage techniques as part of our care packages to help our patients achieve the best  possible results.

We place a heavy emphasis on getting our patients active and moving well. In fact, no package of care can be complete if it doesn't involve enabling and equipping a patient to be a resilient, self-sufficient individual with the confidence to tackle daily life. Exercise is a central part of all evidence-based musculoskeletal care, but it comes in many forms. From targeted rehabilitation to general healthy exercise habits, sports participation to stretching and general mobilising, Tenby Chiropractic incorporates safe and achievable exercise into just about everything we do!
