Chiropractic Care
What Is Chiropractic Care?
Your brain and body are constantly in conversation, sending messages back and forth through your nervous system, most of which travel through your spine. But when stress builds up (whether physical, emotional, or environmental), it can interrupt this flow. Like a traffic jam on a busy road, those messages can get delayed or distorted.
This can show up as pain, stiffness, fatigue, or just feeling “off.” Maybe you’ve woken up with a sore neck, or your back aches after doing something simple. These are signs your body isn’t functioning as well as it could.
Chiropractic care looks for those areas where things aren’t moving or communicating well, what we call subluxations, and gently restores proper function. By improving the way your spine and nervous system work together, your body has a better chance to heal, move, and feel its best naturally.
How We Work
Your care begins with a full assessment to understand what’s going on and how we can help. Once we’ve got the full picture, we use a range of techniques to support your spine and nervous system. These may include:
Sacro-Occipital Technique (SOT) – a gentle, low-force method focused on balancing the relationship between the head, spine, and pelvis
Diversified Technique – hands-on adjustments to restore motion in the joints
Activator Method – a handheld instrument that delivers low-force adjustments
Thompson Drop-Table Technique – a specialised table assists with smoother, comfortable adjustments
Postural and movement assessments to support longer-term improvements
Katie tailors each adjustment to your body, your comfort level, and your health goals.
Why It Matters
When your spine is misaligned or not moving well, it affects how your whole body functions. That’s because the spine protects the nervous system – the communication highway between your brain and body. If the signals are disrupted, your health can suffer.
By restoring motion to the spine, chiropractic care helps your body do what it’s built to do – repair, adapt, and move with ease. People often come in with symptoms like pain or stiffness, but over time they may notice other changes too: better sleep, more energy, improved focus, and a greater sense of ease in daily life.
How Chiropractic Helps Your Whole Body
Chiropractic care isn’t just for sore backs – it supports your entire nervous system, working to help the body heal, move and function as it should. When your spine or joints aren’t moving properly, it could create tension, pain, or affect the way your body communicates with itself.
