An adjustment is a highly skilled and specific movement usually applied by hand or instrument to the various joints of the spine and of the body. An adjustment’s goal is to restore proper movement, improve function and regulate the nervous system as a whole. There are many gentle techniques used regularly by chiropractors and adjusting methods are determined by a patient’s treatment goals and comfort level.
X-rays are taken only if needed in the diagnostic process. After the doctor has conducted a thorough case history and physical examination of the patient they will determine whether X-rays are needed in support of the diagnostic and treatment plan.
Prior to your first visit you will complete a confidential health history form. Your therapist will assess and create a treatment plan for you.

Both approaches can help you feel better and move easier, but they work a little differently:
Osteopathy
A gentle, hands-on treatment that looks at how your whole body works together—not just the sore spot. It may help if you’ve got a mix of aches (like back, neck, and headaches together), posture or alignment issues, or discomfort that just keeps returning.
Physiotherapy
A focused, active approach that combines exercises with hands-on techniques for a specific injury or area. It’s especially helpful if you’re recovering from surgery, healing a sports injury, or want a structured plan to build strength and prevent future setbacks.
Still unsure? We offer complimentary consultations to help you decide what’s best for your needs.
