Pregnancy can put undue strain on a woman's body, especially the low back and pelvic joints, muscles and ligaments. Dr Susan has helped many women throughout every stage of their pregnancy. Proper alignment of the lower spine and pelvis can relieve back pain and help make the birth process easier.
CLINIC SERVICES
Pregnancy
Children
Young growing bodies have many stresses and strains on them. Chiropractic treatment can help address kids' injuries, aches and pains, posture and mobility issues. A simple screen for scoliosis is performed on all kids over 5 years of age.
Adults
Pain and discomfort can occur as a result of injuries, stress, poor posture while at work, and various strains on the spine, neck, joints and muscles. Chiropractic treatment helps relieve pain naturally, improving circulation, mobility and overall wellbeing.
Seniors
With aging, more aches and pains tend to surface. Neck pain, back pain, sciatica, hip and knee pain are common complaints in older people.
Gentle chiropractic treatments, stretches, exercises and natural remedies help relieve pain and stiffness, supporting overall health and mobility.
Adjusting
Gentle chiropractic adjusting restores normal movement and alignment between the vertebrae as well as the pelvis and other joints. This promotes proper nerve transmission between the brain, spinal cord and the rest of the body, a vital factor in healthy functioning.
Cranial Treatment
This is a highly specialised treatment for the bones of the skull (cranium), face and jaw. This can be beneficial following head injury, as well as for conditions such as headaches, face pain and jaw problems.
X-Rays, Scans
X Rays and scans may be needed in some cases to help determine the extent of spinal and joint injuries and conditions.
Dry Needling
Fine acupuncture needles are used to treat muscle trigger points, promote relaxation and relieve pain. Back and neck pain, sciatica, muscle tension and strains are some of the many conditions that can be treated with dry needling.
Nutrition Supplements
In our clinic we often recommend high quality nutritional supplements to support health and wellbeing.
Homeopathics
Homeopathy uses various natural substances in high dilution to stimulate a healing response in the body, thereby relieving symptoms. This works on the same principle as vaccinations.
Homeopathic remedies can be used to treat acute symptoms and injuries, as well as more chronic conditions.
