Chiropractic Treatments & Shockwave Therapy
Chiropractic care focuses on improving the function of your spine and nervous system to help your body perform at its best. When your spine is properly aligned, it allows your body to move freely, reduces pain, and boosts overall health. Think of your spine as the foundation for your entire body – when it’s in the right place, everything else works better.
In addition to spinal adjustments, we also use shockwave therapy, a deep-tissue treatment that aims to reduce pain, promote healing, and speed up recovery. This advanced therapy works alongside our other treatments to ensure you’re not just getting temporary relief, but lasting improvement in your overall health.
What to Expect During Your Chiropractic Consultation
Each consultation lasts up to 30 minutes (with extended consults available if required) and is focused on getting you the relief and care you need.
At your first appointment, we’ll do a thorough review of your medical history followed by both a neurological and orthopaedic assessment.
Our findings from these assessments help us get to the root cause of all of your symptoms. We then explain what’s causing your symptoms and your current condition. After this, we begin hands-on treatment tailored to help reduce your specific symptoms and achieve your wellness goals. We want to get you feeling better as soon as possible while ensuring we provide the correct treatment for you.
If necessary, you may be referred for an X-ray or further imaging to help with your diagnosis.

Gentle spinal adjustments
