Why Come & See Us at Hands On Health Care Clinic?

Our clinic specialises in long chiropractic consults. They consist of a 20 minute massage followed by adjustments. We use a number of highly-effective adjusting approaches to help improve spinal biomechanics and reduce nervous system interference. the approach we use is based on our judgement and years of experience.

What Techniques Do We Use?

The primary adjusting techniques we use is called Diversified. First, an analysis of your spine is performed and this can also involve a case history and x-ray pictures of your spine. Then we massage your back to warm up the muscles and joints. This allows the adjustment to be gentler and also to hold for longer and the muscles are relaxed and muscular imbalances are less likely to pull your back out of alignment.

What Does It Feel Like?

The energy delivered during a treatment during the thrust may produce a slight popping sound from the shifting of gas and fluids from the joint. This sound may be interesting, but is not a guide as to the value or effectiveness of the adjustment.

Subsequent visits may include motion palpitation, with the chiropractor feeling the spinal joints move as you turn and bend. Or, a leg check may be performed, to uncover an imbalance in the neck or lower spin, While improving spinal range of motion and function can reduce nervous system interferences, virtually all joints of the body can be adjusted to help restore proper range of motion.
