Back Pain
Our back pain treatments combine spinal adjustments with tailored care plans to address both immediate discomfort and underlying causes. Using manual techniques and posture correction, we reduce inflammation, relieve nerve pressure, and restore mobility. Patients benefit from long-term solutions that prevent recurrence through lifestyle guidance and targeted exercises.
Sciatica
Sciatica treatments focus on realigning the spine to alleviate nerve compression while incorporating soft tissue therapy and rehabilitative exercises. By addressing root causes like disc protrusions or spinal misalignments, we reduce radiating pain and improve nerve function. Customised plans ensure lasting relief and enhanced mobility for daily activities.
Posture Correction
Posture correction involves comprehensive assessments to identify muscular imbalances and spinal misalignments. Through targeted adjustments and corrective exercises, we restore natural spinal curves and reduce strain on joints. Patients experience improved ergonomics, reduced chronic pain, and better overall musculoskeletal health with sustained improvements.
Cupping Therapy
Cupping therapy uses controlled suction to increase blood flow and release muscle tension. This technique effectively reduces stiffness in areas like the upper back and shoulders while promoting circulation. Patients report decreased pain levels and enhanced recovery from soft tissue injuries when combined with chiropractic adjustments.
Joint Pain
Joint pain management integrates mobilisation techniques with biomechanical assessments to improve range of motion and reduce inflammation. We address conditions affecting knees, shoulders, and hips through targeted adjustments and stabilisation exercises. Treatment plans focus on restoring functional movement patterns and preventing further joint degeneration.
