Chiropractors on the Frances?

[Aaron Baldwin]

I'm wondering anyone has any recommendations for Chiropractors they have used along the Camino frances. Pamplona to start, but other cities would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

I thought Chiropractors were an American thing.

A search for "quiropráctico Pamplona" brought up three hits and an assortment of reviews. I'll assume similar results could be gained for Burgos, Leon, Ponferrada and a selection of the towns in between.

On the contrary.

Can highly recommend Rehabilitacion Centro Burgales. Av Cid Campeador, 4. 2°C 09005 Burgos. It is close to where the Camino enters the old city ( opposite Iglesia de San Lesmes Abad). Good directions on Google maps. PS Physiotherapy with great result.

While chiropractic medicine was started and developed by Daniel D. Palmer in Iowa, US, it's a form of healthcare practiced and regulated in 40 countries all over the world.

When I last walked the entire Frances route (8 years ago), I was seen by a great guy in Leon (used a rest day there to take care of that and other personal needs) who had office hours a few days a week there in that city and on other days, held office hours in Sahagun. His card was posted in numerous places along the route near there. Also, a great physical therapist that I used was in Logrono-- the NH hotel where I stayed referred me to him. Most hospitaleros are familiar with the chiropractors, podiatrists and other professionals along the portion of the route they serve. When I served at Salamanca and at Granon, we had a bulletin board with such listings. And as another poster has mentioned, searching the net will give you many names. I am a health care professional myself and found these professionals in Spain to be very good, seemingly having had excellent training.
