About Chiropractic:
|
When assessing the health and wellbeing of a patient, Chiropractors tend to evaluate the entire person as a whole, rather than just focusing on a specific body region or symptom. This is often a different approach to that of western medicine, whereby many medical doctors treat the symptoms of a condition, rather than focus primarily on the actual cause. As our nervous system controls the functioning of all our body parts, a faulty nerve supply can result in a vast range of health conditions. Neck pain, back pain and headaches are just symptoms of usually a much deeper health problem. Some people are totally unaware that they have a spinal nerve problem. This is because many spinal nerves do not possess the fibres that transmit pain messages.

Chinese Medicine & Acupuncture:
|
Acupuncture is one of the worlds oldest forms of health-care (over 2000 years). Like Chiropractic, it can be performed on the symptomatic client, or to help promote wellness in a preventative approach. According to traditional Chinese Medicine - optimal health is reached when an energy meridian ('chi') flows freely around the body without any blockages or disruption. Abnormal energy flow can be balanced again by the placement of thin acupuncture needles at various points in the body.
