Why Chiropractic?
Pain can have a huge impact on how you live your life, from an occasional niggle with certain activities to severe pain that stops you in your tracks. This is simply the body telling the brain there is something wrong. We have the ability to assess you as a whole person and work out where the pain may be coming from and how or why this has happened. Kate says, “treating the pain is often the easy bit, it’s working out why the pain is there in the first place, and making sure it doesn’t come back- that’s the tricky part and where we can help out.

What our patients say
Sandra Jones
"I first met Kate Palmer some seventeen years ago when I was in significant pain with shoulder and back problems. Since then she has been a constant support and I cannot imagine functioning without her. She combines the height of professionalism and skill with warmth and concern and I cannot recommend her highly enough. Thank you, Kate, for all you have done, and, I trust, will continue to do, for me. You are one in a million."
Nicholas Fawcett
"I was introduced to Kate through a friend when suffering with neck and back pain. Kate worked on my problem areas and diagnosed what was wrong with me and treated me accordingly. Her knowledge and experience is second to none and I would highly recommend her to anyone with any aches and pains."
Tom McCready
“The service at Wetherby Chiropractic was really great, I suffered with a very tense back which could be very painful but the sessions have alleviated the pain as well as given me a much better understanding of my backs health and what I can do to keep it in good shape.”
How does Chiropractic work?
People often ask “Do chiropractors crack bones?”. This is a popular misconception, so let’s look at what we do, why we do it and how. Chiropractic works by identifying the underlying cause of your pain, and correcting it.
