Understanding Healing

Understanding your healing at ProHealth Chiropractic, Chorley.

We understand that every patient’s experience of pain – and their recovery – is unique. That’s why we create personalised chiropractic care plans based on your individual health goals, daily activities, lifestyle, work demands and any previous injuries or conditions.

While some people notice relief after their first few adjustments, lasting improvement takes time and consistency. Correcting spinal function is a gradual process, much like straightening teeth with braces. Meaningful change happens through regular care and support. Alongside chiropractic adjustments, we also guide you with rehabilitation and massage, as well as simple lifestyle advice to help your recovery and support long-term results.

The length of time it takes to see improvement often reflects how long you’ve been living with your issues. Problems that have developed over many years typically require more time and attention than recent injuries.

Your chiropractic care plan for long-term spinal health

Following your initial phase of care, many of our patients benefit from ongoing care to help keep you accountable and keep the progress you’ve made. Just as you continue brushing your teeth after a dental clean, regular chiropractic adjustments help maintain spinal function and reduce the likelihood of future problems.

Healing is not always a straight line. You may experience occasional ups and downs during your recovery, and that is completely normal. Our team will support you throughout, adapting your care plan where needed to help you achieve the best possible outcome.

Ongoing chiropractic care can help you:

Maintain an active lifestyle
Reduce the risk of pain flare-ups
Slow down further wear and tear on the spine
Address small issues before they become larger problems
Improve overall mobility and day-to-day function

After a few sessions of rehab and chiropractic care, my shoulder pain is gone. I feel stronger and can enjoy golf again.

Sarah

I had struggled with back pain for years. ProHealth didn’t just ease the pain - they taught me exercises and techniques that keep me moving comfortably every day.”

Amanda on Manual Therapy

The staff is so friendly and organized. I haven’t had a massage like this in a very long time! I highly recommend! I’ll def be coming back!

Mary on Massage Therapy

This is the best physical therapy clinic I have ever been to. I have had several issues with my shoulder and two hip replacements and have gone to other services for PT. However this has been the best of any place I have been.

Robert Tootell (Golf Rehab)

Thank you to Michael and Jordan, and the Team at ProHealth Chiropractic in Chorley, for their assistance Whilst playing golf on Easter Day (2021), I suffered an injury to the middle of my Back. The pain worsened over the next few days until I was struggling to sit up from a horizontal (resting) position, to stand from a sitting position, and to walk without feeling pain in my lower back. I was not in a good place. In the hunt for help and assistance I visited ProHealth Chiropractic. After listening to my tale of woe on the golf course, and a realisation on my part, that probably years of operating a poor Back posture had not helped, I would like to pass on my thanks to Jordan (for the physio) and Michael (for the Chiro) that was gratefully received. I’m now in much better shape, playing golf again, and with an improved understanding of good Back posture, and stretching exercises that I practice often, in an attempt to prevent recurrence of injury. In turn, this learning will hopefully assist me further in later years, although, I’m not sure if it will improve my golf handicap, but I will find out!

As a tourist I visited Michael Hannaway , on July 27, in great pain. He helped me for instance and listened to my complaints. He took the time to listen . It was a pain I had for a long time . I received treatment from. Michael and sports massage from sir. Jordan Howarth , after which I left with much less pain. We had considered stopping our journey, now we could continue our journey. I would like to express my special thanks to Michael Hannaway , sir. Howarth and his Clinic. I can highly recommend them and wish them all the best . Thank you very much and see you one day in Bruges-Belgium. A grateful and painless patient

Shannon Simpson (Hip Pain)

I've had issues with pain in my lower back and right hip area since 2018 and finally decided to get myself booked in to see a chiropractor. After my first 4 visits, the constant pressure and pain I had been suffering with since 2018 has now gone and my back, neck and pelvis are feeling the best they've felt in years!

Willow Hailwood: (Shoulder)

I am seeing Claire and jordan for a shoulder issue and they have been nothing but kind, gentle and respectful since I've been going to ProHealth - I previously saw them for an issue with my knee and back that was sports related that is now healed from their treatment and they have always done their job to the highest standard. I would highly recommend them for anyone looking for very experienced and highly trained professionals. Thank you guys!

Dave Court

Having suffered headaches due to neck pain along with lower back pain after a lifetime of Martial Arts training, I am now pain free and back to practicing at full capacity thanks to regular visits with and advice from Michael and the team at ProHealth Chiropractic Chorley. I would highly recommend them to anyone in need of quality realignment and posture assessment.
