Your First Visit

What to expect

On your first visit to the Spine & Joint Centre in Ealing and Harrow, you will receive a through Consultation and Examination in order to diagnise your problem and determine the best treatment for you.

Treating the cause of your pain

Your Chiropractor will ask you questions about your pain, medical history, posture and lifestyle. It is important that your Chiropractor gets a complete understanding of your situation.

You will be asked not just about the pain or the complaint that may have brought you to the Centre, but about your past and present health history. Some of these questions may appear irrelevant to you, but they are important to help establish the cause of your pain and ensure that Chiropractic care is appropriate for your condition.

Your Chiropractor may determine that Chiropractic is not suitable for you. In this case he will be refer you to an appropriate healthcare professional such as your GP or Consultant.

Examination

Once your case history has been completed your Chiropractor will conduct a fully and thorough examination to establish and confirm a diagnosis. The examination will concentrate on the neuromusculoskeletal system (nerves, muscles and joints), but it may also be necessary to check other things such as your heart, lungs and abdomen to rule out other causes to your pain. This thorough approach and examination is a normal procedure at the Spine & Joint Centre.

Gowns are made available for you to wear for the examination and treatments.

Report of Findings

Before treatment starts your Chiropractor will tell you in clear, simple language what is wrong with you, what can be done about it and what you will expect. You will also be advised of any changes to your lifestyle that may be beneficial so that you can help yourself. A part of getting better is up to you, so please follow any instruction and advice carefully and completely.

You will be advised of all costs that relate to your care at this time.

Treatment

Chiropractic treatment mainly involves safe, gentle, specific manual adjustments. The adjustments free joints in the spine or other areas of the body that are not moving properly along with exercise to stretch and strengthen muscles.

You may hear an audible ‘pop’ during an adjustment. This is nothing to worry about it is the sound of bubbles of gas popping in the fluid of the joint as the pressure is released. It is not bones grating on bones.

Your Chiropractor will utilise a wide variety of techniques that are suitable for your particular condition at the time to get you out pain as quickly as possible and in the minimum of discomfort.

Rishi and the team are really professional and have helped improve my mobility. The front desk are always helpful and engaging and the therapist (Rishi) is personable and truly knows what to do to get you healing. I am continuing to see them for follow up treatment and to monitor my progress. The clinic is hygenic, bright and well situated. Thanks again to the team at this clinic for helping me on my journey to better mobility!

I recently visited the Spine and Joint Centre for my lower back pain where I was treated by Dr Hogan. After just a few visits, I could feel gradual alleviation in my back pain and I am now pain-free. I highly recommend the Spine and Joint Centre to anyone dealing with lower back pain.

I started back in 2021 and have been seeing Dr Rishi who has solved all my problems and made me better than I was. It’s always nice seeing the staff and having a chat as they are very welcoming too. I would highly recommend if a chiropractor is needed.

I recently injured my back, and had difficulty standing straight. When i called they made an appointment, they made one for me the next day. After a few sessions with Dr Rishi i was able to stand up straight without the use of a walking stick. If you have back and mobility issues i would reccomend this clinic if you are in the area.

I can’t thank Dr Rishi enough for treating my elderly mother who was in agony with neck nerve pain radiating down her arm. After being disheartened by GP’s, I am so grateful for everyone who has left a google review and recommended the spine and joint centre and Dr Rishi. After the first treatment, my mother felt relief and had hope that she will be relieved of the pain. It has also been a great comfort for my mother because Dr Rishi speaks Punjabi and can speak to her directly without me having to translate for her. We will continue to see Dr Rishi for routine chiropractic care and I do not hesitate to recommend the Spine and Joint Centre for anyone looking for great patient care. The full team and receptionists are exceptional and customer service is professional, helpful with a patient-centred approach.
