WE DO THINGS DIFFERENTLY

We dont guess

  • We Test

Our process is thorough

Our Chiropractic care is Brain based

  • We focus our assessment, analysis and adjustments primarily on your neuroskeleton (spine & skull + spinal cord & brain).  These central structures hold the key to health and healing throughout the rest of your body, because they command and coordinate all bodily functions.  Your organs, limbs and everything in-between are controlled by your brain, and communicate with your brain via your spine.

We are 100 focused on helping you

  • To achieve the things that matter most to you.  Our care is results-driven and based on the targets and goals you’d like to achieve.  We seek to understand the “why” behind the results you are looking for.

We honour the intelligence which naturally exists within

  • Our expertise is in facilitating this incredible intelligence to reorganise and restore your body and mind to a state of strength, balance and harmony.  Essentially we help your body to fix itself, exactly the way it is designed to do.

  • An “adjustment” describes the chiropractic treatment of your spine. It can be delivered by hand or specialised instruments to restore normal motion and alignment to your spine.

    Chiropractors are trained at university for 5 years to ensure that your adjustments are safe, effective and gentle.

  • Your initial consultation will include a comprehensive assessment performed by Dr Ryan, he will analyse your findings and go through the results with you and advise whether Chiropractic care is suitable in your case. If chiropractic care is recommended please be assured that most people find the adjustment completely painless, in fact a lot of people find it to be relieving and enjoyable. In some instances you may be tender after your adjustments as we are creating important change, however most people describe this tenderness similar to muscle soreness from a workout.
