Experts In Hands-On Treatment & Rehab
What you can expect
Chiropractors are trained to diagnose and treat a wide range of spinal and musculoskeletal conditions, including back and neck pain, sports injuries, sciatica, headaches, shoulder, hip and knee pain, soft tissue and tendon disorders.
At your first session we’ll take a thorough history about your presenting complaint, injury or pain. We’ll discuss your past medical history to help uncover any additional risk factors that could affect your recovery . Next we’ll discuss what your expectations are and what you would like to achieve from these treatment sessions.
We’ll then perform a thorough examination consisting of a number of physical, orthopaedic and neurological tests. This allows us to diagnose your complaint, give you a clear explanation of what is the cause is, how we’re going to treat it and how long we expect a your recovery to take.
Our Treatment Approach
When it comes to treatment we have a wide range of tools and techniques on offer. Our treatment approach is primarily “hands-on”. What it means is that we we use techniques such as dry needling, massage, myofascial release & cupping to help release tight muscles and soft tissues.
Chiropractors also aim to restore normal movement of the joints in the spine and extremities. We do this by providing manual adjustment, manipulation and or mobilisation techniques to improve movement in restricted joints. Our Newmarket Chiropractor can adapt his techniques to suit every body type and treatment preference, providing safe and effective musculoskeletal care.
