Chiropractic Care
Unlock your body’s healing potential
"Never underestimate the importance of a balanced spine; when your spine is in alignment, so is your life."
Chiropractic care is a holistic approach to health, focusing on the spine, nervous system, and overall musculoskeletal balance. Through gentle, hands-on adjustments, chiropractic care aims to restore proper alignment, reduce pain, and support your body’s innate ability to heal.
Chiropractic care centers around the relationship between the spine and the nervous system. By addressing misalignments, chiropractic adjustments can help optimise communication between the brain and body, supporting a range of bodily functions and contributing to overall health.
When the spine is out of alignment, it can place pressure on Nervous System leading to pain, discomfort, and decreased mobility. The Nervous System consists of the brain, spinal cord, and the nerves that extend from the spine to connect with muscles, organs, ligaments, tendons and glands. It serves as the communication network between your brain and the rest of your body.
Chiropractic care focuses on addressing interference within the Nervous System, enabling the body to function and heal naturally. Chiropractic adjustments use controlled, precise force to realign the spine, reduce nerve pressure, and restore proper function. In addition to hands-on adjustments, our chiropractors may incorporate other techniques such as SOT, Applied Kinesiology, Neuro-Emotional Technique, Neurological Integrative System (N.I.S), Soft Tissue Techniques, and exercise recommendations to support recovery and enhance wellbeing.
Healing Through Chiropractic Care
Chiropractic care is commonly sought for relief from various physical ailments, but it also provides much more than pain relief. It’s about addressing underlying imbalances, supporting healthy movement, and encouraging long-term wellness. Our chiropractors work with you to understand your unique health needs, guiding you toward optimised movement and vitality
Chiropractic treatments can assist with:
Back Pain Relief: Addressing chronic or acute pain, often stemming from postural issues or muscle strain.
Neck Pain and Tension Relief: Realigning cervical vertebrae to relieve discomfort and improve mobility.
Headache and Migraine Reduction: Targeting spinal misalignments and tension, which often contribute to headache symptoms.

Neuro Emotional Technique (NET)
In addition to traditional chiropractic adjustments, we also offer Neuro Emotional Technique (NET), an advanced therapeutic approach that addresses the connection between the body, emotions, and stress. NET is based on the understanding that unresolved emotional stress can be stored in the body, contributing to physical symptoms, chronic pain, and tension. This approach combines principles from traditional chiropractic, applied kinesiology, and Chinese medicine to help release these stress patterns and encourage emotional healing.
During an NET session, your practitioner will use muscle testing and gentle adjustments to locate and release emotional blockages. This process can bring significant relief, allowing the nervous system to function optimally and helping to support the body's natural healing processes. NET is sometimes considered beneficial for those experiencing stress-related conditions, chronic pain, and tension that may not fully resolve through physical treatment alone. By addressing both the physical and emotional aspects of health, NET offers a holistic path to balance, resilience, and overall well-being.
Please note, NET is not intended to treat any specific mental health conditions. It is encouraged to be working with a mental health professional alongside treatments, if you need or suspect you may need additional mental health support.
