Chiropractic
The World Health Organization (WHO) defines chiropractic as the health profession “that deals with the diagnosis, treatment and prevention of disorders of the neuromusculoskeletal system and the effects of these disorders on health in general.”
People of all ages can benefit from chiropractic care. My spinal adjustments are differentiated in its approach and according to the needs of each patient.
The WHO specifies that “chiropractic attaches particular importance to manual techniques, such as manipulation or joint adjustment” of the spine. The Spanish Chiropractic Association (AEQ) explains that “like any health profession, chiropractic has developed its own body of knowledge, focused on the study of the spine, its disorders, their effect on the nervous system, and its approach.”
Founded in 1896, the chiropractic profession enjoys satisfaction levels among its patients that range from 80% to 95%, according to surveys and studies carried out over several decades. The profession has a more relaxed history abroad, but its effectiveness has been universally proven. Chiropractic patients have been shown to suffer fewer hospitalizations, fewer surgeries, less drug use, and lower costs in maintaining their overall health. Quite simply, frequent chiropractic care helps you regain and maintain health.
In my center, I visit patients who are at different stages in their life: the newborn who seeks to prosper, the growing teen, the grandfather with limited mobility, the worker who aspires to face tasks at full capacity or the housewife who wants to recover faster from any situation. All people seeking improvement with problems such as muscle contractures, dizziness, headaches, cervical or lumbar pain, sciatica or low back pain, among various examples related to the spine and as well as those who explore living with a better quality of life and fewer ailments.
We desire a fulfilling, successful family and work life. Our body is our main work tool; we all need a strong body and a healthy spine to carry out our tasks and responsibilities. Discover your possibilities with chiropractic.

The latest review of the Spanish Chiropractic Association (AEQ) of November 2019 found that “most countries around Spain, both in the EU and outside it, also recognize that chiropractic is a health profession. We have close examples such as France, Portugal or Italy, but also Belgium, Germany, the United Kingdom and all the Nordic countries, most of them incorporated into the services offered by public health.” This dossier shows some of the high-caliber scientific studies published in the scientific literature and clinical journals worldwide.
The research and studies published in scientific journals on chiropractic come from several countries worldwide, including Spain. In Europe, the European Chiropractor’s Union (ECU) aims to promote and expand the profession in Europe. The ECU is owned by 23 European countries and represents around 5,000 chiropractors.
Chiropractic education is standardized globally in accredited universities, always using the parameters defined by the World Health Organization (WHO) and detailed in its report “WHO Guidelines on Basic Training and Safety in Chiropractic”, presented in Geneva in 2005. Barcelona College of Chiropractic and all European universities accredited by the European Council on Chiropractic Education exceed these parameters of academic training, clinical training and on Evidence-Based Practice.
The knowledge of the chiropractor, their ethics and the dexterity of their hands make all the difference when you choose your chiropractor. For these reasons, make sure that your chiropractor is a member of the Spanish Chiropractic Association.
