Chiropractic care of the spine in Estepona: neck, mid back, lower back, pelvis and tailbone. At Centro Quiropráctico Puig we always start with a functional assessment of your mobility and posture, explain what we find and adapt the technique to your age and lifestyle.
Neck pain
The neck carries the weight of the head and feels the effects of everyday postures: screens, driving, long hours at a desk. During the visit we assess its mobility and that of the upper back, and apply specific adjustments adapted to your sensitivity.
Lower back pain
Discomfort in the lower back is one of the most common reasons people come to our Estepona centre. We assess lumbar and pelvic mobility, how you sit, how you lift and how you move, and use that information to propose a care plan.
Sacroiliac pain
The sacroiliac joint links the spine to the pelvis and takes a good share of the load when you walk and stand. It is an area we often check during pregnancy. Dr. Puig assesses it and works with the SOT Technique and other low-force techniques.
Tailbone (coccyx) pain
Tailbone discomfort is usually most noticeable when sitting. At Centro Quiropráctico Puig we check the pelvis and sacral area with gentle, specific techniques, and if there has been a fall or injury we ask for your doctor's assessment first.
Sciatica
When discomfort travels from the lower back down the leg, it is worth having a medical assessment. At our centre we carry out a functional assessment of the lumbar spine and pelvis and, where appropriate, work in coordination with your doctor. The techniques Dr. Puig may use include Cox Flexion-Distraction, a low-force approach.
Herniated disc
If you have a medical diagnosis of a herniated disc, bring it to your first visit: we will take it into account to decide whether chiropractic care is appropriate for you and with which technique. Dr. Puig usually opts for low-force techniques such as Cox Flexion-Distraction and keeps in touch with your doctor.
Scoliosis
Scoliosis is a sideways curvature of the spine, and its follow-up is a matter for your doctor. At Centro Quiropráctico Puig we assess the mobility and posture of each person with scoliosis and adapt the techniques to their case, always alongside that medical follow-up.
Our care approach
At Centro Quiropráctico Puig we organise care in three phases, which we review with you as you respond:
- 1 Initial phase: The first few weeks, with sessions closer together while we see how your body responds to the adjustment. At the end of this phase we review with you how you are feeling and decide the next steps together.
- 2 Stabilisation phase: Sessions become more spaced out. We keep working on mobility and posture and give you simple advice for everyday life: breaks, movement and your workstation.
- 3 Maintenance phase: Periodic visits, if you choose, to check your spine and keep up what we have worked on. We agree the frequency based on your activity and preferences.

Frequently asked questions
There is no fixed number. On your first visit to Centro Quiropráctico Puig in Estepona, Dr. Puig carries out a full functional assessment and proposes a phased plan with an indicative frequency. That plan is reviewed with you every few sessions to see how you are responding and whether it makes sense to continue, space out the visits or refer you to another professional.
It depends on each case, which is why a prior assessment is essential. If you have a herniated disc diagnosis, Dr. Puig reviews your reports and scans, assesses whether chiropractic care is appropriate and, if it is, usually uses low-force techniques such as Cox Flexion-Distraction. If anything suggests you need medical attention, he will refer you to your doctor.
No. Chiropractic does not correct scoliosis, and its follow-up is a matter for your doctor. What we do at our Estepona centre is assess the mobility and posture of each person with scoliosis and adapt the techniques to their case, alongside that medical follow-up.
We give our fees over the phone on 952 791 996, as they depend on the type of session. The first visit lasts 45 to 60 minutes and includes a case history, a functional assessment and, if appropriate, the first adjustment. Follow-up visits last 15 to 30 minutes and are priced differently.
