3. ADJUSTMENTS

Routinely 15mins, 30 mins are available if suitable.

Adjustments are your chiropractic treatments where we start getting your pain levels down and restoring your movement.

Short term we prioritise reducing pain and inflammation, and after that’s under control we address the long term strength and stability.

For long term goals, we add in regular reviews to ensure everything is on track and often involve sports therapy as part of rehabilation.
