FAQ

What is an Adjustment?

A chiropractic adjustment is a very safe, specific, controlled force applied to a joint to restore proper function and mobility. Accidents, falls, stress or overexertion can negatively impact your spine or other joints. These changes impact tissues, the nervous system and other areas of the body. Left unresolved, this can make you more susceptible to chronic problems. Chiropractic adjustments reduce pain, increase movement and improve performance.

FAQ

Is treatment painful and would I need time off work?

Depending on the severity of your condition or which treatment you would require, there might be some discomfort after an adjustment due to possible inflammation. However this should subside within a few hours and under normal circumstances is not necessary to take time off work.

Kindly note that this could be different dependent on your diagnosis and treatment that you will be receiving.

FAQ

Why choose Chiropractic?

Chiropractic is the method of natural healing most chosen by those seeking complementary/alternative health care for acute and chronic conditions. While you may first visit a chiropractor to relieve pain in the lower back or to treat sciatica, neck pain, whiplash or headache, you will find that a chiropractor views you as a whole person and not the sum of your parts. A chiropractor will work in partnership with you to ensure your optimal health and wellness.
