Services - Chiropractic
Chiropractic aims to gently restore the normal movement and alignment of the spine and extremity joints. This can alleviate many health issues including lower back pain, digestive and respiratory disorders, neck pain, headaches and general aches and pains.
A Chiropractic adjustment refers to how the Chiropractor gently and skillfully applies a controlled force from their hands to a specific joint, usually in the patient's spine.
Adjustments should not hurt and Chiropractors train for many years to perfect their skills. Some of the various techniques utilised include Drop Piece, Activator, Manual, Mobilisation and Flexion/Distraction.
As a Doctor of Chiropractic, I have not only been trained in spinal adjustments and injuries, but also soft tissue (muscle) and extremities injuries (e.g. ankle sprain).
Treatments can include Chiropractic adjustments, mobilization, soft tissue massage, trigger point treatment, electric modality (e.g. ultrasound and TENS), postural and supportive taping. Your individual treatment will be designed around your specific need.
