The Role of a Chiropractor

Chiropractors undertake 5 years of university study to be able to diagnose and treat a vast array of musculoskeletal problems, like neck pain, headaches, back pain, and sciatica. Chiropractors specialise in the spine – how it moves and how it functions. Chiropractors understand that when the vertebrae in the spine are not moving correctly this can cause pain, stiffness, and other symptoms, but that it also has an effect on how the nervous system functions.

 

This is important because we know that the brain and nervous system controls and coordinates all functions in the body.

Often the pain and dysfunction we experience can be caused by an accumulation of stress on the body, creating tension that the body stores. To really get to the cause of your symptoms, it is vital to look at what physical, chemical, and emotional stressors you have in your life.

What affects your health

There is a growing body of scientific evidence and understanding that tells us that poor lifestyle choices are the biggest contributor to the epidemic of chronic diseases which affects most Westernized countries.

 

Symptoms that we experience are usually just the tip of the iceberg, if we truly want to address the underlying causes of our health, then it is important to explore many of the aspects that affect our daily lives.

Our Focus

For over 130 years, chiropractors have believed in the innate healing abilities of the human body. Our focus at East Geelong Chiropractic is to help you to discover the underlying causes of your health issues. Here we will focus on 3 main areas that often cause health problems.

Physical Stress:

 

Repetitive movements, heavy workloads, too much sitting, accidents, and injuries all contribute to the health of your spine

Chemical Stress:

 

What are you putting into your body? Are you deficient in any vitamins or minerals, or eating too much of the wrong things?

Mental & Emotional Stress:

 

Do you feel overwhelmed by work, life, or family commitments? Do you have strategies to deal with these issues?

Over time, these stressors accumulate and wear down our body’s ability to cope and compensate. This often leads to not only pain or discomfort, but may also lead to other health issues.

We work with you to tailor an approach that is specific to your needs, whether you want to :

• Relieve pain

• Feel better

• Start getting healthier, fitter or more flexible

• Have your body function the best it can and maintain it that way

We’re Always Here to Help You, We look forward to hearing from you!
