Self management and lifestyle advice

There are many factors embedded in our lifestyles and environment that can increase the likelihood of experiencing symptoms such as back pain.

Whether it is simply that you’re not exercising enough (or exercising too much!) or that your stress levels are very high for a sustained period of time, the way we live our lives can have a huge impact on our chances of suffering musculoskeletal pain.

Research has shown links between the prevalence of back pain and obesity, excessive alcohol consumption, smoking, quality and quantity of sleep, and the type of work that you do.

At Diss Chiropractic Clinic we aim to look at you as a person and not simply a collection of symptoms.

This enables us to not only reduce your pain now but to give you realistic ways of managing your symptoms more effectively in the future as well.

Our Treatments

Treatments - Medical Acupuncture

Medical Acupuncture/Dry needling

Medical Acupuncture/Dry Needling reduces pain and inflammation by inserting needles into muscle trigger points, often enhanced with physical rehabilitation.

Treatments - Exercise Therapy

Exercise Therapy

Exercise Therapy encompasses various physical rehabilitation forms, from general advice to specific programs, effectively treating musculoskeletal pain, tailored to patients’ abilities and goals for progression.

Treatments - Joint Manipulation

Joint manipulation

Spinal manipulative therapy applies quick force to joints, not to realign, but to desensitise areas for improved movement and reduced pain. It’s most effective when combined with personalised physical rehabilitation.

Treatments - Further Investigations

Further Investigations

If your chiropractor deems it necessary, they may refer you to your GP or for scans like ultrasounds or MRIs, either before or alongside your treatment plan. This helps tailor your care effectively to ensure you receive the most appropriate treatment.

What do our clients think?

After four years of back pain I decided to see a Chiropractor as it was affecting my work and daily life. I was given an appointment the next day with Jake. I have had two appointments with him and I can already feel the benefit. Jake explained what he would do and answered all my questions. The exercises have been ones that I can do at home. Jake has shown care and professionalism at all times. I am so glad that I chose this clinic. The reception staff are very helpful.

Carolyn O’Dea

My husband has visited 3 times now and is doing his exercises regularly – significant improvement. Very pleased with everything to do with Rob’s advice.

Jacqui Thone

Stuart Washington looks after my lower back which has been troublesome since I retired. Stuart and the reception staff at the Diss clinic are very friendly and welcoming. The adjacent parking is very handy even though the clinic is close to the town centre. The treatment and advice re: exercises and stretches I receive from Stuart has helped me to keep my back pain free for most of the time, but when I do exceed my limits he helps me to get back to normal in good time. Most of the time I am on routine bi-monthly “care and maintenance” appointments, but I can get out of schedule appointments when needed. I am very happy with the service.

John Ambler

My treatments help reduce the frequency and severity of my migraines, having battled with this condition for decades.

Claire Gallant

Excellent service, fitted me in very quickly, and noticed an immediate improvement.
