Chiropractic treatment
Chiropractic treatment in The Hague
I highly recommend Dr. Carey, he has the expertise as chiropractor. People that work here are friendly and professional.
Lorena G.
A very different chiropractic experience from what you are used to. A friendly welcome and, above all, a lovely atmosphere for a treatment. Dr. Carey is friendly and funny, and after months of misery the treatment was the solution for me.
It is quite a drive for me, but if I need to, I will go there.

Hear From Our Clients
Examination first
Before anything is treated, we carry out an intake with a physical and neurological examination and a thermographic scan. That shows where the complaint comes from and whether treatment makes sense in your case.
The adjustment
You lie on a treatment table designed for these corrections. The chiropractor places their hands on a specific point and delivers a short impulse. It takes a fraction of a second.
How it feels
Most people do not experience the adjustment itself as painful. If you are apprehensive, just say so and we will choose a technique that suits you better.
After the treatment
Mild muscle soreness or stiffness in the first day or two is common, especially after the first few treatments. That is normal and comparable to how you feel after a hard workout.
Which techniques do we use?
Diversified is our standard technique: classic, manual corrections applied with precision. We also use Toggle, a quick and targeted impulse for specific corrections. For situations where a gentler approach is a better fit, for example with children or older patients, we work with the Activator, an instrument-based technique. During the intake we discuss which approach suits you.
What is a chiropractic treatment?
A chiropractic treatment, also called an adjustment, is a targeted correction of a joint that is not moving well. With a short, measured impulse the chiropractor restores the mobility of that joint.
It is about precision, not force. We do not treat "the back" as a whole, but one specific joint in one specific direction. Which joint that is comes out of the examination that precedes the treatment.
You may hear a popping sound. That is a gas bubble releasing from the joint fluid, not bone grinding against bone. The sound in itself says nothing about the result.
A treatment takes about 15 minutes and costs EUR 65.
Chiropractic treatment can help with a range of complaints, including back, neck and shoulder pain, as well as headaches, stiffness and posture-related problems. We examine your posture and your complaints beforehand, so the treatment is safe and tailored to you.
