Chiropractic Care
Chiropractic is a regulated healthcare profession that focuses on the spine, joints, muscles and nerves, and how they work together. Your chiropractor assesses how your spine and joints are moving, then uses hands-on treatment, including adjustments, soft tissue work and tailored exercises, to reduce pain and help you move and function better. Our care is based on current research and clinical guidelines, combined with our clinical experience and what matters most to you.
Individualised Techniques
The adjustment is performed either manually or with the use of an instrument. Sometimes you will hear a clicking or popping sound, this is simply the release of gas, like when you open a can of fizzy drink. The specific technique chosen for you is recommended based on your problem, age and preferences. The adjustment process will be described and explained to you before your first adjustment.
Conditions We Commonly offer Relief for in the Practice:
- Joint Pain
- Postural Issues
The majority of our patients will initially contact us due to their symptoms or pain. The first stage of care focuses on your main complaint and getting you to feel, function and move better. We encourage patients to actively participate in their care by completing simple home exercises to reinforce the effect of the adjustments on their body.
The second stage, the most important, focusses on strengthening and stabilising your spine and surrounding structures to enable your body to function at its best. This is where we see patients start to get back to their activities and hobbies to previous levels.
Once you’ve gone through the first two stages, we offer wellness or maintenance care. As the name indicates, this stage is designed to help combat the impact daily stresses have on your body and to keep you at your best.
