Blacktown Chiropractic Centre
Welcome to our family-oriented practice.
The Chiropractic Principle.
Our survival requires maintenance of a balance between many chemicals and stresses within our body. This balance is regulated by the nervous system.
The nervous system is encased in the bones of the spine – vertebrae.
There are joints between each vertebra, which allow us to bend and twist.
If movement of these joints is reduced swelling of the soft tissue (muscles and ligaments) around the joints occurs.
This swelling can put pressure on nerves, which reduces their ability to keep the balance within our body.
Your Chiropractor will assess each joint and maintain its mobility, thus minimising nerve interference.
This allows your body to maintain the balance within.
Studies show that Chiropractic can be an effective and cost efficient treatment for
Back pain
Neckpain
Headaches
Arthritis
Muscle strains and sprains
Joint sprains
Rehabilitation of fractures and surgery.
Also, many people state they have found relief of stomach upsets (heartburn, reflux, constipation, menstrual discomfort), asthma, chronic ear infections, carpal tunnel syndrome and many other disorders. Treatment may be covered by your health fund. The Centre is also a recognised provider for WorkCover, Third Party and Veteran’s Affairs patients.
