Chiropractic Treatment in Didsbury Village
Your first appointment with Kathryn is never rushed. She’ll begin by taking the time to understand your health fully, asking about your current condition, your medical history and how pain or discomfort is affecting your day-to-day life. This isn’t a box-ticking exercise, it’s the foundation of genuinely personalised care.
Kathryn will then carry out a thorough physical examination, which may involve observing how you move or perform certain actions to help build a clear picture of your condition. Where clinically relevant, neurological and orthopaedic tests may also be used to support an accurate diagnosis.
In some circumstances, Kathryn may recommend further investigation, such as X-rays, MRI scans, or blood tests. These will always be discussed with you openly and explained in plain terms, so you feel informed and confident at every stage.
Crucially, treatment doesn’t wait until a second visit. Where appropriate, Kathryn will begin hands-on treatment within your very first appointment so you leave with both a clear understanding of your condition and real, tangible relief.

What Is Chiropractic?
Chiropractors are qualified health professionals who offer treatment for problems affecting the bones, joints, and muscles that support the body (the musculoskeletal system).
Problems affecting the musculoskeletal system may occur as a result of:
- Accidents
- Illness
- Poor posture
- Lack of exercise
- Sports injury
- Everyday wear and tear
These problems can cause pressure on the nerves in the body.
Treatment by a chiropractor involves manipulation, using very precise handling or movement of the spine or joints to help remedy the problem. Chiropractors may also provide advice on:
- Exercise and stretches
- Self-help
- Diet
- Lifestyle

Treatment Plan
Using the results from the assessments conducted, Kathryn will form an opinion on the likely causes of any pain, discomfort, or other issues you are experiencing and if you are suitable for chiropractic care, recommend a personalised treatment plan.
Your recommended treatment plan will be explained to you in full, including costs and any further treatment options. Your clinician may also recommend a series of home exercises and stretches to help optimise your recovery. These will be explained in detail so that you can perform them safely and correctly.
At Manchester Back Care, Kathryn treats each patient on an entirely individual basis. There is no one-size-fits-all approach. What may be suitable for a friend or neighbour does not necessarily mean it will be suitable for you, and your clinician will explain each aspect of your personal treatment plan.
If your clinician finds that chiropractic care is not suitable for your specific circumstances, they will refer you to your GP or another healthcare professional they believe may be better suited to your needs.
You can be confident that all your treatment notes will be treated as strictly confidential.
