Life changing. I’ve suffered with longstanding sciatica more than 5 years, came in at 8 weeks pregnant when I could no longer walk. I’ve had lovely physios and GPS over the years but no one could help when I was pregnant. Dr Ben and all the team knew they could and they’ve gotten me through the whole second trimester with pretty much no pain. Able to go for walks again and stand more comfortably. Looking forward to continuing my care with them.
I found him excellent. Thorough assessment of my issues and drew up a treatment plan. I noticed an improvement from the start.
I’ve been attending Ben’s practice as a client for the past 6 weeks and to say its been life changing is an understatement. I was experiencing a lot of low back and pelvis pain being 30 weeks pregnant and I was struggling with walking, day to day tasks and it was even affecting my sleep. I was completely miserable and had resigned myself to another 10 weeks of torture. Ben offered to take a look at me and within less then two weeks I was pain free. Ive had two previous pregnancies where I suffered tremendously with my back and pelvis pain and ended up on crutches. This time round I’m like a new person. I wish I’d known Ben sooner. Im no longer in pain, I’m sleeping better, my mental health has improved and I’m feeling confident about the furure. I can’t recommended Ben enough. Him and his team are amazing, friendly professional and very competent. The tag line of his practice says “expect miracles” and believe me you will not be disappointed.
I first decided to visit Dr Ben and his team after feeling my general health needed some help. I had been getting chiropractic adjustments sporadically for years but had not been consistent with my care. Dr Ben has helped me to reach my potential and significantly improved my flexibility, posture and overall wellbeing due to my recent visits to his practice. Thanks Dr Ben and team for being so kind, helpful and professional every time i visit!
Has helped me with a lot of my issues so far, staff are very friendly and it’s spotless to visit
I’ve been visiting Dr. Ben Martin’s clinic for a while now, and my experience has been excellent. The staff is professional, friendly, and attentive. Each session has helped relieve my pain and improve my overall well-being. The chiropractor takes time to understand my issues and explains the treatment clearly. I always leave feeling better and more relaxed. Highly recommend if you’re looking for effective and caring chiropractic care!
I am currently attending this practice and have found a noticeable improvement. I would highly recommend them. Very efficient and friendly staff.
Making great progress with my treatment plan staff very welcoming very relaxing atmosphere.
I have attended Optimal Chiropractic for the past 3 months. Dr Ben, Dr kishan and Dr Noah have being great to speak with and very helpful in guiding me onto the right path to care for my back. They give great advice and encouragement and are very easy to talk to. I’d recommend highly
They are incredibly knowledgeable, taking the time to explain everything clearly and answer all my questions. Their genuine care and personalized approach made me feel so comfortable and confident in my treatment. Highly recommend!

  • Consultation

    We listen to your health concerns and goals. Your chiropractor will begin the comprehensive evaluation by taking a detailed health history. A clear and accurate health history gives your chiropractor the insight needed to understand your condition and provide the most effective care possible.

  • Examination

    Next, your chiropractor will assess how you move. You’ll be guided through various motions of the neck and lower back to check for fluidity, restrictions, or pain. Specific orthopaedic and neurological tests will be performed (if required) to help pinpoint the exact condition.

  • Posture Screening

    Your chiropractor will perform a posture analysis, which involves taking 3 full-body digital images to gain insight into your spinal health and highlight any restrictions..

  • Report of Findings

    This is your 2nd visit where we will explain the results from your consultation, what is going on and how we can help. You will receive a Personalised Treatment & Care Plan designed just for you.

Nervous System Scans

Advanced Technology for Better Insight with INSiGHTscanning technology.

We are proud to be the only chiropractic clinic in Cork offering INSiGHT™ scanning technology – a state-of-the-art system of three neurological scans that provide an in-depth look at how your nervous system is functioning.

This advanced technology used in our New Patient Consultation allows us to deliver personalised, data-driven care from your very first visit.

Here’s what each scan measures:

Surface Electromyography (sEMG)

This diagnostic tool records the electrical activity of your spinal muscles, revealing muscle activity and symmetry patterns.

You will receive a copy of your sEMG scan to review during your report of findings appointment. This test is objective, easy to repeat, and will be performed again during your re-evaluations.

Thermal Scanning

This scan detects temperature differences along the spine, which can reveal inflammation or areas where the nerves may be irritated.

These temperature changes often correspond to subluxations (spinal misalignments) that may be affecting nerve communication.

Heart Rate Variability (HRV)

HRV measures the time variation between heartbeats and reflects how well your nervous system is adapting to physical, emotional, and chemical stress.

A healthy HRV indicates greater resilience and balance within your nervous system.

Why these scans matter:

Together, these three scans provide a comprehensive view of how your nervous system is functioning. They help us pinpoint areas of stress or dysfunction and allow us to create a care plan that’s tailored specifically to your needs.

This technology is especially valuable in neurologically focused chiropractic care and supports a more targeted and effective approach to your health.
