What Is Chiropractic?
Chiropractic is an Allied Health Profession regulated and accredited by AHPRA (Australian Health Practitioner Regulation Agency). Chiropractic focuses primarily on the diagnosis and treatment of biomechanical disorders/conditions of the musculoskeletal system, especially related to conditions of the spine.
While Chiropractic treats and manages conditions related to the musculoskeletal system, it also has a focus on improving the nervous system too (after all, the brain is the control centre for our entire body).
Why Do I Need A Chiropractor?
Chiropractic is a safe and effective treatment for many injuries and conditions. Our skilled Chiropractors are trained to treat a diverse range of musculoskeletal conditions by utilising a wide variety of techniques. While treatment can provide pain relief, our primary goal is to improve your long-term health, function and quality of life.
Each individual’s condition is different and our Chiropractors will take an in-depth history and examination in order to provide you with a customised and tailored treatment and management plan, specific for your condition. Specific exercise rehabilitation programs will also be provided where required, imaging (such as x-ray) will only be requested if deemed necessary.
Chiropractors are primary contact practitioners, this means that we are trained to recognise when our treatment is appropriate for you and when you need to be referred to another healthcare provider.
