Services and Modalities
"The body's ability to heal itself is remarkable.
The myriad of mechanisms underlying health and well being is still not completely understood.
Because of this, health sciences are still researching and learning about how best to facilitate these healing mechanisms.
It is estimated that 60 - 80% of our health is dependant on lifestyle choices.
Therefore, it makes sense to investigate natural ways to heal the body.
We administer a large array of techniques and
approaches acquired in over 30 years of study
and practice. Each technique is catered to fit
individual clients. Techniques for adjusting the
spine can vary from simple pressure application
and variable force, to mechanically assisted
adjusting devices. We also use more traditional
hand applied adjustments where patients
experience the sound of cavitation or 'pop'
within the joint as well as drop-piece tables
which allow for more robust adjustments which
are usually for larger less flexible males.
Decisions on which technique to use is based
on the patients age, gender, health status, size,
level of pain symptoms, sensitivity of their nervous system, experience of chiropractic treatments and sometimes it is dictated by what gives the best results. There are many different methods of evaluating the need for chiropractic care. Some encompass traditional medical methods while other methods are more specific to chiropractic and other muscular skeletal professions. Professional judgement, knowledge and experience are incorporated in order to make that decision.
Chiropractic Treatments
Laser Therapy (Photobiomodulation)
For a wide range of muscle and joint problems, we often use low level laser treatment as a therapeutic option. I like this modality as it provides energy to the cells whose physiology has become compromised and as such may provide the stimulus for change in the progression of the pain or disease process. Examples of this would be the inflammation and pain associated with injury and the subsequent formation of scar tissue.​​

General Well Being
For overall health, lifestyle lifestyle errors and well being, we provide nutritional advice and administer a wide variety of supplements. Errors in lifestyle choices (not genetics or bad luck) is fundamental to why the majority of people experience too many health problems. Here at the clinic we we have the knowledge to help you correct these errors should you wish. A variety of nutritional supplements can be supplied to help with any nutritional imbalances.
