Question 1

Where is the chiropractic clinic in Ringkøbing located?

Accepted Answer

The clinic is at Tangsvej 1, 6950 Ringkøbing, in West Jutland, Denmark – a short walk from the town centre and the harbour, with easy parking outside. It is a convenient stop for visitors staying in Ringkøbing, Søndervig, Hvide Sande and along Ringkøbing Fjord.

Question 2

Is the chiropractor English speaking?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Niels Claussen qualified in Bournemouth, England in 1974 and consultations in Ringkøbing are held in fluent English, so tourists and international patients are looked after in a language they are comfortable with.

Question 3

What is chiropractic care?

Accepted Answer

Chiropractic is a recognised healthcare profession focused on diagnosing, treating and preventing problems in the musculoskeletal system – particularly the spine, neck, pelvis and the surrounding muscles and nerves. A registered chiropractor works to restore natural movement and relieve pain.

Question 4

Where did the chiropractor train?

Accepted Answer

Niels Claussen trained at the Anglo-European College of Chiropractic in Bournemouth, England, qualifying in 1974 among the school's early cohorts. The college was founded in 1965 as the first chiropractic college in Europe and the first outside North America, and for many years it was the only place in Europe where chiropractic could be studied. Today it is a university under the name Health Sciences University. The clinic in Ringkøbing has been seeing patients since 1978.

Question 5

What conditions can a chiropractor in Ringkøbing help with?

Accepted Answer

Common reasons for a visit include back pain, neck pain, sciatica, tension headaches, shoulder and arm pain, hip and knee pain, whiplash‑related complaints and strain from long drives, cycling, surfing or fishing along the West Jutland coast.

Question 6

What happens during a consultation?

Accepted Answer

Your first visit starts with a thorough conversation about your medical history and symptoms, followed by a professional physical examination of the spine, joints and muscles. Together we agree on a clear treatment plan and what you can do at home or on holiday.

Question 7

Does chiropractic treatment hurt?

Accepted Answer

Most patients find the treatment does not hurt. Some notice brief soreness the next day, similar to after exercise. The treatment is always adapted to you, your age and your situation.

Question 8

How many treatments will I need?

Accepted Answer

It depends on the nature and duration of the problem. Some patients feel better after a single session – useful if you are only in Ringkøbing for a few days – while longer‑standing complaints may need a short course of care. Progress is reviewed at every visit.

Question 9

Do I need a referral to see a chiropractor in Denmark?

Accepted Answer

No. In Denmark you can see a registered chiropractor directly, without a referral from your GP. Just call the clinic in Ringkøbing to book a time.

Question 10

Can tourists and visitors from abroad be treated?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Visitors from abroad are very welcome and often seen at short notice. Please bring your ID and, if relevant, your travel or private health insurance details – many policies cover chiropractic care and the clinic can provide a receipt for reimbursement at home.

Question 11

How quickly can I get an appointment?

Accepted Answer

Waiting times are short. Call +45 51 41 90 62 (best between 9:00 and 12:00) and we can usually offer you a time within a day or two – ideal if back or neck pain has appeared during your stay on the west coast of Denmark.

Question 12

When should I see a chiropractor?

Accepted Answer

If you have persistent or recurring pain in the back, neck or joints, unexplained headaches, or symptoms after a fall, a long car journey or an accident, it is a good idea to have it checked. Consultations in Ringkøbing are by appointment.

Question 13

What is the difference between a chiropractor and a physiotherapist?

Accepted Answer

A chiropractor specialises in the diagnosis and treatment of joints and nerves – particularly the spine – and is authorised to make a diagnosis. A physiotherapist focuses mainly on rehabilitation, muscles and movement. The two professions often complement each other well.
