They use hands on techniques, such as spinal adjustments and soft tissue therapy to help relieve pain, improve movement, and support overall wellbeing.  

Chiropractors must complete a degree recognised by the General Chiropractic Council (CCC).  This is usually a four or five year Master of Chiropractic (MChiro) course, which includes academic study, practical training, and clinical placements.  

Newly qualified chiropractors typically earn between £30k-£40k per year, while more experiences professionals can earn upwards of £50k.  Chiropractors running their own successful practices may earn significantly more, sometimes exceeding £80k.

Although entry requirements do vary, five GCSEs, including English and Maths, and three A-levels, including one science are generally needed.
