Chiropractic Care

Do you suffer from pain in the back, neck, shoulders, hips or legs? Or perhaps you have headaches or discomfort. Maybe you simply aren’t achieving your sports performance goals or have felt that you’re not living as well as you could be.

These common symptoms make your life feel challenging and exhausting, and may be due to stress on your joints and muscles that cause strain in your body. If left untreated, these strains can cause chronic pain, restrict your movement, and affect your sleep and quality of life.

Living Better With Improved Mobility

Here at Biotune Chiropractic, we assess and diagnose problems in the joints and muscles. A focus on evidence-based chiropractic care treats your entire body, from the neck and back to extremities. The benefits of our biomechanical approach may include:

  • Better performance in daily life and sports
  • Increased mobility
  • Reduced pain

How Does Chiropractic Work?

Chiropractic care is based on the science that good health and wellbeing are dependent on the relationship between the nervous system and the spine. When you’re injured or not at your best, we work to improve your mobility and the brain awareness of your body so that you can function properly, free from irritation. A chiropractic adjustment applies force to the area that has restricted movement, gently enabling it to regain its normal motion.

Tailoring Care to You

Our chiropractors have expertise in several different adjusting methods that address your entire body. The chiropractic techniques we use are manual and hands-on, such as Gonstead and Diversified. Before adjusting you, we take the time to address muscular problems first to loosen up the area and make the adjustment more effective and comfortable. There are various methods to do so:

  • Massage therapy
  • Trigger point

These types of soft tissue work will be tailored to your needs and personal preference. Then, the adjustment is used to improve your mobility and range of motion.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does it hurt?

A chiropractic adjustment usually will not hurt. Sometimes, the muscle work we perform may require a firmer touch, but we always keep your comfort level in mind.

What’s the difference between Physiotherapy and Chiropractic?

A physiotherapist is qualified to complete muscle work, rehabilitation and may use adjustments. Our chiropractors have extensively trained to diagnose your problem, allowing us to pinpoint the cause and work to correct it in addition to treating the soft tissues and doing rehabilitation.

What is ABC?

Advanced Biostructural Correction™ is a full-body, manual protocol-based method of correcting and optimising the biomechanics of the human skeletal framework. Aimed at detecting and correcting biomechanical misalignments that the body cannot self-correct as there is no muscle (or combination of muscles) that can pull in the direction needed. When this occurs our body “twists”, or uses other muscles pulling in other directions, to compensate.

Over time, with many such misalignments and compensatory twists posture deteriorates and symptoms can develop. These symptoms cover the myriad of conditions seen daily in chiropractic practice. The importance of posture should not be underestimated. “Observation of the striking influence of postural mechanics on function and symptomatology have led to our hypothesis that posture affects and moderates every physiologic function from breathing to normal hormonal production. Spinal pain, headache, mood, blood pressure, pulse, and lung capacity are among the functions most easily influenced by posture.” -American Journal of Pain Management 1994, 4: 36-39

When correctly applied, ABC™ practitioners world-wide frequently observe consistent and predictable improvements in postural stability, marked by the ability of the patient’s body to stay more “effortlessly upright”. Due to the influence of postural balance on human physiology and function, patients frequently report improvements in other areas, such as pain levels, improved mobility and ease of breathing.
