Chiropractic treatment & Chiropractic adjustment
Our chiropractor will tailor a chiropractic treatment plan for you based on your specific condition and goals. Our chiropractor will choose appropriate techniques based on your problem areas / diagnosis and ensure that you are comfortable with these.
Manual chiropractic adjustment techniques may involve a “cracking” noise which is the release of gases that have built up around the joint. Spinal adjustments are not painful.
Our chiropractor will use a range of techniques to reduce muscle spasm around the area of concern. If significant muscular abnormalities are noted your chiropractor may refer you to our in-house Occupational Therapist, Massage Therapist or Physiotherapist for further assessment and treatment.
Chiropractic Treatment Reviews:
Regular re-examinations will be conducted to review your progress. Please feel free to ask your chiropractor any questions you have about your diagnosis, prognosis, progress, and rehabilitation program.
