Dr Leizer

I work with patients from many walks of life, from OAPS and children to professional athletes. However people who suffer chronic pain and acute injury often do so as a result of their job. I came into this profession because I was inspired to help people suffering from pain and assist individuals in improving their quality of life. I take great personal satisfaction in the positive results we achieve here at the Cheshunt Chiropractic Clinic.

Chiropractice FAQ

How does chiropractic adjustment work?

A chiropractic adjustment is the art of using a specific low-force in a precise direction applied to a spinal segment (vertebrae) bone that is “stuck,” or not moving properly. This “adjustment” adds motion to the spinal joints, helping the bone gradually return to more normal motion and position. The chiropractor evaluates each patient’s unique symptoms and develops an individual treatment program. There are numerous types of different spinal adjustments that chiropractors use. Additionally, chiropractors will manipulate and adjust many other joints throughout the body, including shoulder, elbow, wrist, ankle, and knee.

How frequent should my treatments be?
This depends greatly on your diagnosis. The recommended course of treatment takes into account your age, the length of time you’ve had the problem, and the type of work that you do. It’s often necessary to have more regular treatments initially, in order to get better results. As the problem improves then treatment becomes less frequent.
Is the treatment painful?

No. Chiropractic therapy is generally not a painful procedure and your chiropractor will work sensitively with you to ensure that you remain comfortable throughout the process. Chiropractic is very safe. It avoids invasive procedures such as surgery or the use of drugs. Chiropractic care is a natural approach to improved health and pain relief that is proven to be safe and effective.

Can a person with a history of spinal trauma get treatment?

Yes. Having chiropractic treatment may still be possible. Chiropractors sometimes discover evidence of old and insignificant small spinal fractures many years after they occurred that the patient was never aware of! People who have had fractured limbs in particular may need chiropractic assessments because previous accidents may create additional spinal problems due to compensating factors with posture and mobility.

Can a person who has had back surgery see a chiropractor?

We care for patients who have had various types of previous spinal surgery, and with good results. Quite often patients are referred by their surgeon or consultant for rehabilitation and post-operative chiropractic care.

Can chiropractic treatment help with pregnancy?

Pregnancy places additional weight and stress on women’s bodies. Chiropractic treatment can help relieve pregnancy-related lower back, pelvic (SPD), leg, neck and shoulder blade pain. Chiropractic treatment is safe and effective, and can be carried out throughout most of the pregnancy. An equally important time for women to visit a chiropractor is at the post natal stage. This will allow your chiropractor to check for any spinal problems caused by the pregnancy, birth, and post-natal care including feeding, etc.
