Chiropractic is a hands-on, non-invasive and drug-free approach to relieving pain, promoting wellness and improving overall quality of life. Chiropractic treatments are based on the diagnosis of spinal misalignments called subluxations. Chiropractic care corrects spinal misalignments that affect the nerves, organs and muscles.

Chiropractors treat all types of back and neck issues, general aches and pains including those of joints, muscle spasms or cramps, frozen shoulder and tennis elbow arising from associated musculoskeletal conditions of the back and neck. They also treat joint pain including hip and knee pain from osteoarthritis, alongside core osteoarthritis treatments and exercise.

Chiropractic can also help with headaches secondary to neck problems and prevention of migraine type headaches.

Age really is no barrier! Treatment is safe for people of any age; procedures differ for the very young, those with bone disease such as osteoporosis and the elderly.
