Personal care for your healthy living

As a long established health care practice, we are committed to spinal health and well being. Our chiropractors offer high levels of professional and ethical standards and modern equipment for optimal health care. Neck pain, headaches, back pain, sciatica and neuro-musculoskeletal disorders can achieve excellent pain relief with chiropractic care. Chiropractic is a non-invasive and drug free treatment that assists the body to restore proper spinal movement and promotes the body’s own ability to heal itself. Chiropractic is considered safe for all ages from babies to pregnant women to the elderly. In caring for children and the aged, gentle adjustments are applied to mobilise “locked” joints. The aim of care is to remove irritation to nerve pathways, allowing communication between the brain and body parts, restoring function and removing pain. Our Chiropractors are committed to delivering comprehensive, scientific and up to date treatment for neuro-musculoskeletal disorders. This includes neck pain, lower back pain, headaches, sciatica, migraine, whiplash injuries, hip, knee and ankle injuries, shoulder injuries, rotator cuff strains and carpal tunnel. Our Chiropractors utilise low force, computerised adjusting instruments as well as manual techniques as necessary and prescribe appropriate rehabilitation exercises..

What is Chiropractic?

Chiropractic is a health care discipline based on the scientific premise that the body is a self-regulating, self-healing organism. These important functions are controlled by the brain, spinal cord, and all the nerves of the body. The practice of chiropractic focuses on the relationship between structure (primarily the spine, and pelvis) and function (as coordinated by the nervous system) and how that relationship affects the preservation and restoration of health. The skull protects the delicate tissues of the brain. The moving bones of the spine protect the intricate communication pathways of the spinal cord and nerve roots. If these nervous system pathways are impaired, malfunction of the tissue and organ function throughout the body can result. Chiropractic also places an emphasis on nutrition and exercise, wellness and healthy lifestyle modifications.

What do chiropractors do?

Chiropractic works by helping to restore your own inborn ability to be healthy. When under the proper control of your nervous system, all the cells, tissue, and organs of your body are designed to function well and resist disease and ill health. The chiropractic approach to better health is to locate and help reduce interferences to your natural state of being healthy. A common interference to the nervous system is the twenty four moving bones of the spinal column. A loss of normal motion or position of these bones can irritate or impair the function of the nervous system. This can disrupt the transmission of controlling nerve impulses. Chiropractors aim to improve nervous system function primarily through chiropractic adjustments (with particular attention to the spine, skull and pelvis), to help remove any interference that may be impairing normal health.

How are chiropractors regulated?

Chiropractors are five year university trained, government regulated and government registered healthcare professionals. Australian Government has established a chiropractic regulating authority to ensure increased public safety for the Australian population. These bodies are responsible for maintaining the highest standards for all practitioners.

What is a chiropractic adjustment?

A chiropractic adjustment is the skill of using a specific force in a precise direction, applied to a joint that is fixated, “locked up”, or not moving properly. This adds motion to the joint, helping the joints to gradually regain more normal motion and function. The purpose of this safe and natural procedure is to permit improved spinal function, improved nervous system function, and improved health. There are many ways to adjust the spine. Usually the chiropractor's hands or a specially designed instrument delivers a brief and highly-accurate thrust. Some adjusting methods are quick, whereas others require a slow, constant or indirect pressure. After years of university training and clinical experience, each chiropractor becomes highly skilled in the delivery of a variety of adjusting approaches.
