WHAT IS cHIROPRACTIC?
Chiropractic is a statutorily regulated healthcare profession in the UK, overseen by the General Chiropractic Council (GCC). This means chiropractors must be highly trained, insured, and meet strict standards of safety, professionalism, and continuing education. At its core, chiropractic care focuses on the relationship between the spine, nervous system, and overall health. We use safe, evidence-based techniques to assess, diagnose, and treat a wide range of musculoskeletal conditions such as back pain, neck pain, sciatica, headaches and much more. Chiropractic is also built on the time-honoured principle that the body has an innate ability to heal and regulate itself. When the spine and nervous system function optimally, the body is better able to adapt, recover, and thrive. At Parkview Chiropractic, we combine modern clinical excellence with this natural philosophy of health—helping you move better, feel better, and live better. As proud members of the Royal College of Chiropractors, we are committed to upholding the highest professional standards while supporting the wellbeing of our community.
Chiropractors may use the courtesy title ‘Doctor of Chiropractic (DC)’ to reflect their qualification; however, they are not medical doctors and do not hold a medical licence.
