Our Techniques

At our office we believe that each individual has their unique spine which requires their own unique approach.

Our Chiropractors are well skilled, experienced and are constantly learning to provide the most up to date and safest, gentle and most effective form of Chiropractic treatment.

Our Chiropractors use objective and scientific methods to assess the function and condition of your spine. They are also well versed in several adjustment techniques to ensure maximum comfort as well as flexibility for each person.

Our techniques include:

 Sacro-Occipital technique (SOT): This technique is focused on assessing the function of the spine in its entirety. Focusing on how the brain and body communicates through the spinal column itself. This technique utilises gentle low force adjustments using blocks, cranial therapy as well as visceral (organ) applications. This is a popular approach for people with chronic pelvic issues, pregnancy, kids, headaches and chronic ears, nose and throat issues or even digestive issues.

 Diversified Technique: This is your most common technique associated with chiropractors. Here we use our hands to precisely restore movement to spinal joints and stimulate nerves. With this technique you get those “clicks and pops” that most people look forward to. Don’t worry those noises are just gasses being released between those joints, nothing nasty here.

 Activator Technique: Ever heard of a friend describe their chiropractor using a little clicker on their spine? Well this is it. This gentle low force technique uses an instrument to specifically and accurately stimulate spinal nerves and restores motion back to joints without the “popping and clicking”. This technique works well with everyone from nan and pop, mum to bub, as well as extremities.

 Thompson Technique: With this technique we use our specially designed, purpose built tables. Different sections of the table pop up and drop down to help restore motion back to the spine. This is another low force technique that is comfortable and effective for everyone. Especially those poor posture complaints.
