Frequently Asked Questions

What should new patients expect during their first chiropractic visit?

During your first visit, Vital Family Chiropractic performs a detailed consultation and spinal assessment to understand your health history and nervous system function. This includes posture evaluation and neurological checks. On your second visit, your chiropractor reviews the findings and recommends a personalised care plan designed to address the root cause of your discomfort and support long-term wellness.

What makes this chiropractic clinic different from others in Orpington?

Vital Family Chiropractic stands out for its family-focused, all-ages approach and emphasis on education and empowerment. The chiropractors explain every step of care, helping patients understand how adjustments and home exercises work together. This collaborative model ensures patients in Orpington achieve lasting results rather than short-term symptom relief.

Do you offer chiropractic care for babies, children, and pregnant women?

Yes. Vital Family Chiropractic provides gentle paediatric and pregnancy chiropractic care tailored to each stage of development. Techniques are safe and adapted for infants, children, and expectant mothers to support spinal alignment, nervous system balance, and comfort throughout pregnancy and growth.

What conditions do chiropractors at this clinic commonly treat?

Chiropractors at Vital Family Chiropractic treat conditions such as back and neck pain, headaches, sciatica, postural issues, and sports-related injuries. They also support patients experiencing discomfort during pregnancy or developmental concerns in children. Each care plan is tailored to restore spinal function and optimise nervous system communication.

How long does a typical chiropractic appointment take?

A standard chiropractic adjustment at Vital Family Chiropractic usually takes about 15 to 20 minutes, while initial consultations last longer to allow for a full assessment and discussion of health goals. The team ensures every session is thorough, relaxed, and focused on your specific needs.

Will I receive treatment on my first chiropractic visit?

In most cases, treatment begins after your second visit once your chiropractor has reviewed your examination results and explained your care plan. This ensures your adjustments are precise and based on a complete understanding of your health. Vital Family Chiropractic prioritises accuracy and patient education before starting care.
