At Ellie Yuen Physiotherapy, we offer spinal manipulation as part of our holistic approach to treating musculoskeletal conditions.
This hands-on technique aims to reduce pain, improve mobility, and restore function to your spine and surrounding areas.
Whether you're dealing with back pain, neck discomfort, or stiffness, spinal manipulation can help ease your symptoms and improve your overall well-being.
Spinal manipulation is suitable for individuals dealing with:
✅Chronic back or neck pain
✅Headaches and migraines
✅Joint stiffness or restricted movement
✅Postural problems or muscle tension
✅Sports injuries or rehabilitation
1️⃣ Assessment – We take a detailed history and assess your symptoms.
2️⃣ Physical Examination – A thorough physical examination will help identify the source of your discomfort. This may involve assessing your posture, range of motion, and any areas of tension or restriction.
3️⃣ Personalised Treatment Plan – Based on the assessment, your physiotherapist will create a tailored treatment plan. If spinal manipulation is recommended, they will explain the technique and ensure you're comfortable with the process.
4️⃣ The Procedure – The spinal manipulation involves a quick, controlled movement to a specific joint in your spine. You may hear a "pop" or "click," which is completely normal and occurs when gas is released from the joint.
5️⃣ Aftercare Advice – Guidance on movement, exercises, and pain management strategies.
Spinal manipulation is safe and effective when performed by a qualified physiotherapist. Your comfort and safety are our top priority throughout the entire process.

Spinal manipulation is effective for a range of conditions, including back pain, neck pain, headaches, joint stiffness, and muscle tension. It's also beneficial for improving mobility and reducing discomfort from sports injuries or poor posture.
Yes, spinal manipulation is safe when performed by a qualified physiotherapist. We take great care to assess your condition thoroughly before recommending this treatment to ensure it’s appropriate for your specific needs.
A spinal manipulation session usually lasts around 30-60 minutes, depending on the complexity of your condition. Your physiotherapist will also take time to assess your symptoms and explain the treatment process.
The number of sessions needed varies depending on your individual condition. Some people experience relief after just one or two treatments, while others may require a series of sessions. Your physiotherapist will tailor a plan based on your needs.
After a spinal manipulation session, your physiotherapist may recommend specific stretches, exercises, or lifestyle adjustments to maximise the benefits and prevent future issues. It’s important to follow these recommendations for optimal results.
Spinal manipulation may be right for you if you are experiencing musculoskeletal pain, stiffness, or discomfort. Your physiotherapist will conduct a thorough assessment to determine if spinal manipulation is suitable for your condition and discuss any alternative treatments if necessary.
