What is a Chiropractor?
Move Freely, Live Fully
Chiropractic is a regulated healthcare profession that focuses on the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of mechanical disorders of the musculoskeletal system and the effects these disorders can have on the functioning of the nervous system and overall health. Chiropractic uses non-invasive, drug-free manual techniques to assist with the treatment of these conditions.

Benefits of Chiropractic Care
Chiropractic care can:
-
Reduce back, neck, and joint pain
-
Improve mobility, flexibility, and posture
-
Support nervous system function and overall health
-
Aid recovery from sports and orthopaedic injuries
-
Enhance wellbeing for all ages
Chiropractic Adjustments
Chiropractic adjustments are manual techniques applied to joints of the spine and extremities with the aim of improving joint mobility and supporting musculoskeletal function.
Flexion Distraction
Flexion distraction is a gentle, non-force technique performed using a specialised table to facilitate movement of the spine and reduce mechanical stress on spinal structures.
Dry Needling
Dry needling is a technique used for the treatment and release of muscle trigger points or "knots" by inserting fine needles into specific areas of muscle tissue.
Ultrasound Therapy
Ultrasound therapy uses sound waves applied to soft tissues to assist with reducing inflammation and enhance tissue healing by increasing blood flow.
Electrotherapy - TENS
Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation (TENS) involves the application of low-level electrical currents to targeted areas as part of conservative musculoskeletal management. It promotes pain relief by modulating pain signals.
Soft Tissue Therapy
Soft tissue therapy includes hands-on techniques applied to muscles and connective tissues to address tension, movement restriction, and functional limitations.
Taping/ Strapping
Taping and strapping techniques are used to provide support to muscles and joints and may be applied as part of a broader musculoskeletal care plan.
