Chiropractic
This involves gentle and effective mobilisation of the spine and extremity joints to help improve joint position and mobility and is performed in combination with thermal heat to initially relax muscles followed by remedial massage to help complement and sustain body balance.
Tailored programs to improve spinal health and well-being include specific exercise strengthening and stretching programs as well as tailored ergonomic, dietary, and lifestyle modification/counseling.
Standard consults are approximately 30 minutes in duration and combines thermal heat, massage and chiropractic treatment and advice. Those patients who have private health cover (extras) will be able to claim their rebate onsite (via hicaps) so only the gap is payable.
