What conditions do you typically address with chiropractic care?
Our practice addresses a wide range of conditions, including headaches, migraines, back pain, sciatica, disc protrusions, and whiplash. We also can help manage conditions such as flat head syndrome in infants, pregnancy-related pain like pelvic girdle pain, and degenerative joint diseases. Our goal is to provide effective care for a variety of musculoskeletal issues.
What can a patient expect during a chiropractic adjustment?
Your chiropractic adjustment will be tailored to your specific condition. Our techniques may include spinal manipulation, the Activator Method®, or other gentle approaches like flexion-distraction.
While most patients experience immediate relief, some may feel slightly tender the next day, similar to how one might feel after a deep tissue massage.

How many sessions might a new patient need for chiropractic care?
The number of sessions required varies depending on the individual and their specific condition. While some patients may need only a few sessions, others might require more. Predicting the exact number of sessions needed is challenging, as each patient’s response to care can differ.
What types of exercises do you recommend alongside chiropractic care?
We recommend various strengthening and rehabilitation exercises tailored to your specific needs. Our extensive library of over 3,000 exercises allows us to create a customised plan to support our chiropractic care and enhance your recovery.
Do you accept health insurance for chiropractic care?
Our services are covered by all major health insurance providers in Ireland. Patients can simply submit their receipts to their insurance for reimbursement.
What is your cancellation policy for appointments?
We have a 24-hour cancellation policy. Patients should inform us at least 24 hours in advance if they need to cancel or reschedule an appointment.
Do you offer free consultations or initial assessments?
Yes, we periodically offer free spinal screenings. These are available every couple of months during designated evenings. Patients can book online to secure a spot for a free screening, which helps determine if chiropractic care is an option for them.
How does physical therapy complement chiropractic care?
Physical therapy at Alpha Chiropractic enhances recovery by working hand-in-hand with chiropractic care. Our therapist follows the chiropractor’s recommendations and focuses on muscular recovery, rehabilitation, and pain management. This integrated approach ensures patients receive comprehensive care in one convenient location.
