Our chiropractors are experts at diagnosing and treating problems which lead to symptoms such as neck and back pain, sciatica, headaches, migraines dizziness, asthma, constipation, period pain and jaw pain. Chiropractors also treat sports and work related injuries.
Massage
Massage therapy improves circulation by bringing oxygen and other nutrients to body tissues, thus optimising tissue repair. It relieves muscle tension and pain, increases flexibility and mobility, and helps clear lactic acid and other waste, which reduces pain and stiffness in muscles and joints.
Pure aromatherapy oils can be blended to promote a restorative effect on a mental, emotional and physical level, enhance relaxation and leave you feeling uplifted and relaxed.

Our Physiotherapist discuss these findings with you and plan and implement a treatment that is individual to your needs and lifestyle. We value our reputation of being ‘hands on’ with our treatments such as joint mobilisation and other soft tissue techniques.

Myotherapy
Myotherapists assess and physically treat myofascial pain, injury and dysfunction affecting movement and mobility. Myotherapy is applied in the preventative, corrective and rehabilitative phases of therapy to restore and maintain the normal integrity of the soft tissue structure (muscles, tendons, ligaments and fascia) of the human body.
Myofascial pain is usually not specific and is often described by the patient as a 'deep ache', 'tightness' or 'tenderness' in an area. It can vary in intensity and radiate to other areas. Other symptoms can include reduced range of motion of muscles and joints, stiffness, fatigue, weakness, numbness or a tingling sensation. There are many other symptoms depending on the condition and patients can have one or many symptoms.
