If you are searching for a slipped disc chiropractor in Dubai, you are probably in real pain right now. Sofia Berenguer Quiles focuses on exactly these problems: disc disorders and degeneration, lower back pain and sciatica, the radiating leg pain that a bulging or herniated disc so often causes. Her care is hands-on and entirely drug-free, and where a disc problem needs more than adjusting alone, the clinic offers non-surgical spinal decompression as part of a combined plan.
Sofia uses a hands-on approach to assess, diagnose and care for musculoskeletal and neurological issues, aiming to improve the function of your nervous system, spine and joints so you move better, feel better and live better. She takes time to listen, then builds a personalised care plan around your specific needs. Because she is proficient in many chiropractic techniques, she adapts the treatment to you rather than fitting you to a single method, always grounded in current research.
Sofia’s interest in chiropractic began when a chiropractor resolved her father’s lower back pain, and she was struck by how much a non-invasive approach could change someone’s quality of life. She went on to graduate from the Madrid College of Chiropractic, supplementing her degree with many additional hours of seminars, and she continues to attend them frequently to stay current. She is licensed by the Dubai Health Authority, and you can verify her licence on the DHA’s Sheryan medical directory. She is also a member of the International Chiropractic Paediatric Association.
In today’s fast-paced Dubai, it is easy to put your health on the back burner, whether you are a busy mum, a desk-bound office worker or a business owner. Sofia believes everyone can benefit from chiropractic care, from infants to seniors and from people just getting fit to committed athletes. Outside the clinic she stays active with sport, reads widely and travels to experience new cultures, which is what brought her to Dubai. Time with family and friends, ideally over a good coffee, matters to her most of all.
A slipped disc is the everyday name for a bulging or herniated disc, where the cushioning disc between two vertebrae pushes outwards and can irritate nearby nerves. Discs do not actually slip out of place. Many disc problems respond well to conservative care, and Sofia treats them with gentle, drug-free techniques after a full assessment confirms what is going on.
Often, yes. Sciatica is a symptom, radiating leg pain caused by irritation of the sciatic nerve, frequently from a disc problem in the lower back. Sofia assesses where the irritation is coming from, then treats the cause with hands-on care, supported by non-surgical spinal decompression where appropriate. If your case needs a medical specialist instead, she will tell you honestly.
It depends on how severe the disc problem is, how long you have had it and how your body responds. After your first assessment, Sofia will give you a realistic expectation rather than an open-ended plan, and she reviews progress as you go. Many patients notice meaningful change within the first few weeks of care.
Not necessarily. Sofia begins with a detailed history and physical examination, which is often enough to identify the problem and start safe treatment. If your examination suggests imaging is needed, or if red flags appear, she will refer you for the right scan before proceeding. If you already have an MRI or X-ray report, bring it to your first visit.
Many Dubai insurance policies cover chiropractic treatment, though terms vary. Our front desk team will help you check your coverage before booking. No referral is needed, and same-day appointments are often available. The clinic is open every day from 8:30am to 7pm, in Umm Suqeim 2.
