Services
Chiropractic Adjustments
Our chiropractors use gentle spinal manipulations to address musculoskeletal issues and nervous system interference. This treatment helps alleviate pain, improve mobility, and enhance overall wellness through non-invasive techniques. Patients receive tailored adjustment plans based on comprehensive assessments.
Paediatric Care
Specialised chiropractic treatments for children address developmental issues, posture problems, and injury recovery. Our practitioners use age-appropriate techniques to ensure safe, effective care that supports healthy growth and active lifestyles for young patients.
Kinesiology
Kinesiology assessments identify energy imbalances through muscle testing, guiding holistic treatments that address physical and emotional stressors. This complementary therapy works alongside chiropractic care to restore bodily harmony and improve overall well-being.
Massage Therapy
Pre-treatment massage sessions help relax muscles and improve circulation before chiropractic adjustments. Our therapists use various techniques including sports and remedial massage to enhance treatment outcomes and accelerate recovery from musculoskeletal conditions.
X-Ray Services
Computerised diagnostic imaging helps identify structural issues requiring chiropractic intervention. These scans, conducted when necessary, provide detailed views of spinal alignment and joint health to inform precise treatment planning and track patient progress over time.

Exceptional service from Tom and the team. After having had two micro-discectomies at L5/S1 I was petrified of further surgery, but over 8 weeks Tom has sorted my sciatica caused by a bulging disc at L4/L5, and allowed me to continue working throughout treatment. Brilliant! I highly recommend the team here as all are professional, and extremely friendly (especially Olivia and Stacey )

Best chiropractors I've been to, and I've been to a few. Very professional, friendly and has certainly turned my life around from being in pain all the time. They all very good there but Wayne is my chiropractor and he is amazing

I cannot comment on individual practitioners skills and knowledge. However, I can say the the premises and staff are among the most professional and calming I have come across, and that the practitioner I delay with was fully qualified, experienced and thorough. An amazing facility that delivers first class service.

I am delighted with the treatment I have received here. The staff are professional friendly and efficient. I am guilty of not looking after my back and ignored the niggles and pain I have been experiencing over the years! However, I managed to do something to my back which brought back painful spasms. Could not even put my socks on! ( Thank you darling beautiful husband for helping with this!) I called these guys and was seen the same day for an assessment. The next day I was booked in for treatment with Dr. John :) who is just lovely, I feel very comfortable with him, again professional but friendly
