How Our Treatments Work
No mystery, no hard sell. Here's exactly what happens when you come to see us, and why we do it this way.
Three Steps, One Appointment
Consultation
We talk through your history, your pain and what you want to get back to doing. Then a postural and movement-pattern analysis, muscle strength and joint testing to establish the root cause rather than just where it hurts.
Treatment, Today
Chiropractic (or osteopathic) adjustment to free the joint and release trapped nerves, followed by deep tissue sports massage of the muscles involved so the joint stays free. You should feel a difference before you leave.
Plan & Home Exercises
An honest view of how many sessions we expect you'll need, and a few targeted exercises to keep the improvement going between visits. No pressure to book a course.
What Is a Chiropractic Adjustment?
A high-velocity, low-amplitude thrust applied to a joint. That sounds dramatic; in practice it's a quick, controlled movement that increases movement at the joint, frees trapped nerves and helps realign the spine. It shouldn't be painful. Adjustments can be applied to most joints in the body, from the spine to the ankle.
Why Combine It with Sports Massage?
Mobility at a joint can be successfully increased with one quick adjustment. However, the joint is surrounded by muscles that attach to the bones via tendons, so the muscle is directly linked to how mobile the joint stays. If the resting tension of those muscles isn't altered, the joint can simply stiffen back up.
Through experience, we've found that combining chiropractic adjustment with sports massage achieves faster and longer-term results than either treatment alone. It's the whole basis of Bodybest.
