What is Chiropractic?
Chiropractic is a natural health care that uses spinal adjustments to promote proper spinal alignment and nervous system function. Your chiropractor will thoroughly assess your body, identifying areas of stress, restriction and irritation that could be causing your symptoms. Ultimately the chiropractor wants to find the root cause of your symptoms. After identifying this they can then develop a personalised plan of care to help restore function to the spine.
When the spine loses mobility, it adds stress and pressure on to your joints, muscles, and nerves, which can cause symptoms such as pain, stiffness, muscle tension, weakness, tingling sensations and many more.
What to Expect on Your Visits
Free Posture Check
We offer free posture checks to anyone who is unsure whether chiropractic is correct for them and so don’t want to fully commit to an initial consultation. When you come in for a free posture check, our chiropractor will take some background information regarding your symptoms, as well as any relevant medical history. We will then perform a posture analysis which will identify any areas of concern which may lead to the symptoms you are getting. If we then believe we can help you, we can recommend a plan moving forward, which usually involves booking in an Initial Consultation.
Initial Consultation
When you come in for an Initial Consultation your chiropractor will carefully ask specific questions to understand your symptoms, they will also take a full medical background history to try and piece together what might be causing your symptoms. They will complete neurological and orthopaedic testing to understand your condition further. A posture check will also be taken to establish any possible causes. If it is appropriate some conservatives adjustments can be made.
Report of Findings
When you come back in for your report of findings, your chiropractor would have gone through all the information they discovered in the Initial Consultation and put together a plan on how they intend to help you resolve your symptoms, manage your pain, improve your mobility and increase your overall wellness.
We offer custom care plans tailored to every persons specific needs, we understand that every person is unique and so their healing journeys might vary.
Chiropractic Adjustments
On every visit your chiropractor will figure out any areas that they deem appropriate to adjust. Chiropractic adjustments are safe and specific.
