How we can help
People come to us from Longridge and across the wider Preston area with all sorts of musculoskeletal problems, and the chances are that whatever is troubling you is something we care for regularly. Among the most common reasons people come to see us are back pain, sciatica and hip pain, but our care extends much more widely than that. We regularly help people with:
- back and neck pain, including stubborn lower-back problems
- sciatica and other nerve-related pain that travels into a limb
- headaches that arise from tension in the neck, and migraine prevention
- shoulder, hip and knee pain, and other joint complaints
- minor sports injuries and the recurring strains that come back season after season
Our approach is always the same in spirit: we assess carefully first, take the time to understand your problem and your goals, and explain what we find in plain language. Only then do we tailor a plan to you, combining hands-on treatment with practical advice and a programme of exercises to help you keep the progress going. Where a problem needs medical attention or onward referral, we will always tell you honestly and help you find the right care.
An established local practice
For over twenty years, Back in Action has been helping people across Penwortham, Preston and the wider area move and feel better. As a multi-practitioner clinic, we offer a real breadth of skills and a wide range of techniques and services, including chiropractic, so that care can be matched to you rather than squeezed into a one-size-fits-all formula. Our practitioners draw on everything from traditional hands-on adjusting to gentle, low-force methods and modern rehabilitation, and they will choose the approach that genuinely suits you and your problem. Many of our patients value being able to see the same familiar practitioner over time, who comes to know them and their history.
What to expect on your first visit
Your first appointment is mostly about understanding you and your problem. We will take a careful history, carry out a thorough examination, and explain clearly what we have found and what we would suggest, so you can make an informed decision about your care. There is never any pressure, and we are always happy to answer questions. You can read more about how we work, and what to bring, on our new patients page, and you will find current charges on our fees page.
