Chiropractic
Chiropractic is based around the premise that the body has the potential to achieve health and vitality.
Your central nervous system is comprised of your brain and spinal cord and it is responsible for the control and function of every cell and organ in your body.
As your chiropractor, my focus is on the health of your spine which protects your spinal cord. If your spine is misaligned it can disrupt how your nervous system functions and can have a significant impact on your health. This may lead to symptoms such as pain and discomfort which are there as warning signs. Using specific adjustments my aim is to help your spine to function optimally which allows your nervous system to communicate to the rest of your body without interference. This improves your ability to strive for health and healing as well as reducing painful symptoms.
Heart Rate Variability (HRV)
Our Heart Rate Variability scan forms part of your Initial Consultation and regular Progress Exams. This latest technology allows us to accurately measure the stress response of your body and your body’s capacity to heal.
The scan takes a couple of minutes and simply requires a small clip to be worn on your finger for a few minutes, that measures your heart rate and rhythm. This makes it safe for children, pregnant women and seniors and it provides an objective measurement of stress and determine how you are progressing through care.
The results are presented graphically so that we can visually identify relationships between HRV and lifestyle factors, allowing you to experiment with changes to get the body out of the ‘stress response’ and to allow healing.
Posture Screen
Posture Screen is a digital application we use to take specific pictures of your posture.
Using the inbuilt software we can accurately calculate how your posture is affecting the weight-bearing load on your body, which may lead to instability and wear and tear.
We review and repeat these pictures at regular intervals throughout your care to show you how your posture is improving.
