'I aim to enhance your body's optimal potential, by making gentle adjustments to your body's nervous system & correct spinal alignment. I treat a wide range of conditions including back & neck pain, headaches, sinusitis, TMJ dysfunction, breathing difficulties, sleep disturbance, fatigue and much more.'
Johanna is also qualified in a range of techniques such as:
- Diversified Technique (manual adjustments) - classic chiropractic technique which addresses biomechanical dysfunction throughout the spine
- Applied Kinesiology - muscle testing to help diagnose area of dysfunction from muscular, skeletal, nutritional to Chinese Meridians
- Sacral Occipital Technique (SOT) - normalising the relationship between the pelvis and the skull, correcting distortion patterns in the nervous system. Includes cranial work
- Activator Technique - incorporates the latest advances in orthopedic, neurological, and chiropractic examinations using the Activator analysis & Activator instrument
- Acupunture - For musculoskeletal complaints, based on chinese medicine. Also useful for stress, sleeping difficulties, for helping to turn babies and general complaints.
- Neuro-Emotional Technique (NET) - assess & alleviate the internal stressors that are creating barriers to health and success
- Webster (Pregnancy) Technique - pelvis misalignment causes tightening & torsion of specific pelvic muscles and ligaments. These tense muscles & ligaments have a constraining effect on the uterus preventing baby from comfortably assuming the best possible position for birth
- Nutrition - Johanna will provide advice and work with the qualified Naturopaths & Herbalists for your better health
- Learning & Behavioural Disorders - inappropriately retained primitive reflexes may disturb: behaviour, concentration, learning, memory, posture, perception, hormonal balance, gross or fine motor control
What to expect in my Consultation
Your first visit with Johanna will be about 45 minutes long & involve a full medical history, full spinal examination, postural assessment, orthopedic testing, muscle testing (applied kinesiology), neurological testing & treatment. If required Johanna may refer you for x-rays.
On your second visit, there will be discussion of changes, report of findings, reassessment and treatment. This will take about 30 minutes.
Ongoing visits are usually 15-20 minutes long and offer treatment & periodic comparative assessments. Extended time visits are available.
Chiropractic facilitates efficient neural feedback between the musculo-skeletal system from head (cranium) to tail (pelvis). If this cranio-sacral system isn't functioning correctly it may lead to symptoms such as; headaches, developmental delay, muscle imbalance and hormonal imbalance.
These are usually corrected with gentle adjustments to the spine, cranium and sacrum. A good analogy is that we are fixing your body’s hardware so that its software can operate better. Johanna also works side-by-side with behavioural optometrists, naturopaths, massage therapists etc. to also help correct these imbalances.
