WANT MORE THAN JUST TREATMENT?
We endeavour to offer you advice as to how to avoid causing the
problem again and what you can do to ease your recovery or avoid
irritating the problem. Advice on ergonomics, lifestyle, diet and home
exercise or rehabilitation techniques will be incorporated into
appointment visits as appropriate.
A CHANGE OF APPROACH
Sometimes people find that pain killers are not enough. Either
they do not remove the pain anymore or the patient would prefer to try
getting rid of the problem rather than just suppressing the pain that
the problem causes. We will be able to advise you about postural
issues, rehabilitative regimes, home treatment programs and
chiropractic approaches to treatment dependent upon the problem you
have. Likewise some problems we can resolve others cannot be cured but
treatment can manage the problem. For example osteoarthritis; if a
joint is worn out, we cannot make it grow back to the way it once was,
no one can, so we cant cure it. But chiropractic treatment can assist
in making the joint function better thus alleviating a lot of the pain
PREVENTION/ MAINTENANCE
"The Doctor of the future will
give no medicine, but will interest his patients in the care of the
human frame in diet and in the cause and PREVENTION of disease."
Thomas A. Edison (1847-1931)
A growing number of people are starting to take an interest in
preventative care. This is not as strange as it may sound. You brush
your teeth twice a day and visit the dentist for a regular check-up,
why? As a preventative measure. Some people only go to the dentist
when they cant take the pain any more, they know they have left it too
long and that it will be more involved than just a check-up. We find
it strange that some people do not go for a regular dental check-up,
we even service our cars because of the wear and tear that daily use
causes over time. Taking good exercise and nutritional attention are a
means of preventative health and attitude and yet a lot of people
would not even think about booking a spinal check-up. The stress and
strain of modern life, the postural, physical, nutritional and
psychological demands we place upon our entire body can take their
toll. Your Dentist looks after your teeth, the mechanic your car, the
optician your eyes and the chiropractor your spine. The spine is like
the heart, you only have one, look after it.
ENHANCEMENT
If the tyre pressure on your car is incorrect, the steering wheel
wobbles when you brake, the ride is less smooth, the fuel efficiency
of the vehicle is decreased. Its not broken, it still works but it
could work better. The same is the case of the body. When a joint is
not functioning properly there can be a change to the muscle tension
in that area, either of these variations in turn may cause pain.
However, if it is not bad enough to cause pain but is contributory
enough to change the smoothness of joint and muscle function this
could arguably affect an athlete or sports persons performance.
A SECOND OPINION
Sometimes people have been offered surgery as an option but would
like to know if a less invasive approach might offer the improvement
they seek. Because we examine medically and holistically we can
realistically advise people if Chiropractic might help with their
problem or not; before they commit to surgical procedures and the
risks associated with it.
