Chiropractic
Chiropractors are specialists in diagnosing and treating musculoskeletal conditions throughout the spine as well as the upper and lower extremities. Our Chiropractor uses multiple treatment techniques including spinal manipulations (adjustments), joint mobilisations, soft tissue and muscle release techniques, stretching, exercise instruction, postural/ergonomic education, and advice on reducing stressors and risk factors for pain.
