Our New Clinic And An Evolution In Chiropractic Care

Small group at partyFull group at partyCoinciding with the 45th anniversary of Aberdeen Chiropractic Clinic, established in 1979 by Dr Bramberg DC and taken over by renowned Chiropractor,  Dr Eline Pedersen DC in 2006 we, having developed our own successful practice at Inverurie Chiropractic Clinic, are delighted as former Associates of the Aberdeen clinic to become in October 2024 the third owners to continue the heritage of this great family friendly practice renowned for its patient care and progressive advancement of chiropractor and wellbeing healthcare.

In terms of progressive advancement of chiropractor and wellbeing healthcare it is interesting to reflect how the role, contribution and impact of chiropractic therapy in pain relief and in general public healthcare has changed in the last 45 years.

Recent research shows that chiropractic therapy in the UK has evolved significantly in that period from an alternative therapy to a regulated, evidence-based profession focused on musculoskeletal health.

Key milestones in that evolution include:

  • 1994: The establishment of the General Chiropractic Council (GCC) and the Chiropractors Act, mandating formal registration and regulation.
  • 1990s-2000s: Standardized education was introduced, with institutions like the Anglo-European College of Chiropractic offering accredited programs, enhancing professionalism and scientific rigor.
  • 2000s: A shift to evidence-based practice improved credibility, especially for back and neck pain treatment, though integration with the NHS remained limited.
  • 2010s-Present: Greater collaboration with physiotherapists and other health providers increased chiropractic’s role in multidisciplinary care, with an emphasis on ethical, patient-centered standards.

We are delighted to have played a part in that evolution and look forward continuing to do so in both our clinics in Aberdeen – www.aberdeenchiropracticclinic.com and in Aberdeenshire – www.inveruriechiropractic.com.

Whilst acknowledging these advancements, we recognise that chiropractic in the UK still face challenges with full NHS integration and debates over treatment scope. Its future will likely focus on further integration with mainstream healthcare and ongoing research to solidify evidence-based practices.
