Process
After a review of your health history, a thorough examination
will be performed. This includes a detailed postural assessment,
because “posture is the window to the spine”.
If posture is out of balance, then the spine is out of balance,
putting unhealthy pressure upon the nervous system.
Good posture equals good health.
A computerised nerve and muscle scan is performed to determine
the state of the nervous system.

A computerised nerve and muscle scan is performed
to determine the state of the nervous system.
Our purpose for administering this scan is to detect and pinpoint
abnormal function in the spine which cannot be seen on X-ray.
Abnormal spinal function causes abnormal Nervous System disturbance.
The three standard tests will measure:
- SEMG - the amount of electrical current in the muscles.
- Thermography - skin temperature along the spine.
- Inclinometry - range of movement of the spine.

Adjustment
A
Chiropractic adjustment is the use of a specific force in a precise
direction that helps normalise spinal function.
Every Chiropractic adjustment is tailored to each patient. There
are many different types of adjustment that can be used, ranging
form a very low force high speed, up to a higher degree of force.
The type used varies from patient to patient.
The adjustment helps to return the bones to a more normal position
or motion, relieving pain and ill health. Restoring motion to
the spine helps to reduce spinal degeneration.
A schedule of adjustments is discussed with a patient before
treatment begins.
When nervous system function improves in this way, the body can
begin the natural healing process.
A continuing schedule of regular Chiropractic checkups and adjustments
will maintain spine and nervous system function throughout life.
Subluxation
Subluxation?
Subluxation is a problem in the spine where an abnormal position
or movement of any of the 24 vertebrae disturbs the communication
between the brain and the nervous system causing disturbance in
the body. When subluxation happens it is not always immediately
obvious and your good health can decline whether or not symptoms
are present. Unfortunately, it is usually only when there is a
major trauma to the spine that people seek the help of a chiropractor;
yet many common conditions like asthma, menstrual pains, headaches,
ear infections, colic and ADHD can be treated and prevented by
regular chiropractic treatment.
