Supporting the NHS and helping you with waiting times
As proud members of the BCA we want to demonstrate the positive impact Chiropractic care can have. We can support patients facing long NHS waiting lists, giving you more choice, more appointments and treatment plans designed to manage your pain and discomfort.
Over the Counter Medicines
The recent BCA research shows nearly half of sufferers are using over the counter (OTC) medication to treat MSK issues. Whilst it has its place in helping patients to resume some physical activity, it is best only used for a short while. All medication comes with side effects, but it also fails to address the potential functional issues leading to the MSK condition.
At Backs and Joints we already work closely with the North Hampshire MSK team in our building. We offer a wide-ranging package of care which is patient-centred, supported by evidence and results in great patient reported outcomes. More people are turning to chiropractors to manage poor mobility, pain and wider health concerns arising from MSK issues, before they worsen.
How we support the NHS:
Chiropractors are an integral part of UK healthcare, supporting the NHS. By giving patients proactive options and choice we are well placed to help relieve the strain on the NHS. We champion greater patient choice, improving patient experience. We are very keen to support avoiding MSK issues developing into chronic conditions, due to a lack of physical activity - further impacting the NHS later down the line.
If you are a patient of Backs and Joints you will already be familiar with our ethos on treatment and care.
