About Us

Chiropractic is a profession which specialises in the diagnosis and treatment of conditions which are due to mechanical dysfunction of the joints and their effects on the nervous system.

Chiropractors use their hands to adjust the joints of your spine and limbs where signs of restriction in movement are found, improving mobility and relieving pain. Your body's own healing processes (which are normally recognised through the ability to heal bruises, cuts and broken bones) will then be able to get on with the task of improving your health. This treatment is known as 'adjustment' or 'manipulation'.

Poor, inadequate or incorrect function in the spine can cause irritation of the nerves and muscles that control our posture and movement. This spinal nerve stress (which may be caused by factors such as accident, poor diet, repetitive strain, lack of exercise, poor posture and anxiety) can lead to the symptoms of discomfort, pain and even disease which are a warning that your body is not functioning properly.

By manipulating joints, chiropractors stimulate the proprioceptors - the body's position sensors which provide feedback to the brain on where the joint is in relation to the rest of the body. This stimulation can affect the way your nervous system works.
