If you have been living with nagging aches, stiffness, headaches or simply feel you are not moving at your best, taking action sooner rather than later can make a real difference. Booking an appointment with Living Strong Chiropractic is a practical first step toward feeling comfortable in your body again and keeping it that way.
What to expect at your first visit
Your first appointment is all about clarity. We listen to your story, ask about your health and daily habits, and carry out a thorough assessment to understand what is going on. This may include neurological and orthopaedic checks alongside a detailed posture and movement screen. You will get plain English explanations and a tailored plan that fits your goals and your lifestyle.
If care is appropriate, you will usually receive your first treatment at this visit. If we believe another approach is better for you, we will always say so and guide you in the right direction.
The benefits of getting started
Relief from pain and tension
Many people come to us for back pain, neck pain, shoulder issues, sciatica, headaches and general stiffness. Chiropractic care aims to reduce irritation, calm tight muscles and restore better joint motion. We focus on the underlying contributors, not just the sore spot.
Better movement and posture
When joints move well, everything feels easier. You can expect guidance on simple mobility drills and posture strategies that work in real life, whether you spend hours at a desk, on your feet or training at the gym.
Support for an active lifestyle
From weekend walkers to experienced athletes, our aim is to keep you doing what you love. Care plans often combine hands on treatment with progressive exercises that improve resilience, balance and control so you can perform with confidence.
Fewer flare ups in the future
A personalised plan helps you understand your triggers and build helpful habits around work, sleep, stress and activity. Many people choose periodic check ins once they are feeling good, which can catch small issues before they become big problems.
More than symptom relief
When your body moves well, day to day life often improves too. People frequently report better sleep, more energy, easier concentration and a greater sense of wellbeing.

Answers to common questions
Will I need to come forever
No. The aim is to help you get results as efficiently as possible, then give you the tools to stay that way. Some people like occasional maintenance visits once they are feeling great, but that choice is always yours.
Is chiropractic safe
Chiropractic care is considered safe for most people when provided by a trained professional. We take time to screen carefully and explain options. If something is not suitable, we will not do it.
What if I am nervous
Completely normal. We work at your pace, explain everything clearly and check in with you throughout. You are always in control.
What if I have tried other treatments
That is common. Our assessment looks at the whole picture, including everyday habits that may be keeping the problem going. Small, consistent changes often make a big difference.

The best Chiropractor by far that I've ever been to. Dr Mike is an exceptional practitioner & i highly recommend him to everyone!

I have been a client of Michael McGinn for over 25 years and am most satisfied with treatments received. What i find amazing is, before he begins his adjustments, through his expert assessing, he pinpoints the EXACT locations of pain and therefore you feel confident his subsequent adjustments will be successful. Michael always checks after his adjustments, to ensure your locations of pain have been dealt with. This reassures you your adjustments have worked. I always feel the tension in my body has been relieved. Also that my body has been completely balanced out. The Receptionist is always friendly and takes an interest in you which creates an atmosphere that really calms your nerves. Jose HarrisPosted on Google![]()

I have been seeing Dr Mike for over 15 years now and I wouldn't be without him, my regular adjustments make such a difference to my wellbeing. Everyone is just so friendly and helpful and it creates such a welcoming atmosphere whenever you visit, I always feel that Mike and team remember bits like holidays etc (impressive with all the customers you have!) and this really makes you feel so valued as a customer. I would highly recommend Living Strong as your chiropractic 🙌Posted on Google![]()
