Services at The Chiro Lab

Adjustments & Mobilisation

We provide spinal and extremity adjustments designed to improve joint mobility, reduce pain, and restore balance to your body. Our approach uses gentle, hands-on techniques to ensure effective relief without invasive methods.

Dry Needling

Dry needling is used to target muscle tension and trigger points that can cause pain. This technique involves inserting thin needles into specific areas to stimulate healing and relieve discomfort, particularly for musculoskeletal pain.

Cervical Distraction & Flexion Distraction

These advanced techniques are designed to treat conditions affecting the neck and lower back. Cervical distraction helps to alleviate pressure on the spine, while flexion distraction addresses spinal disc issues, improving mobility and reducing pain.

Kinesiotaping

We use kinesiotaping to support injured muscles and joints, improving circulation and facilitating the healing process. This therapy is particularly effective in reducing swelling, alleviating pain, and preventing further injury.

Stretching & Strengthening Rehabilitation

Our team provides personalised stretching and strengthening exercises to aid rehabilitation. These exercises are designed to help restore flexibility, improve muscle strength, and prevent further injury.

Pediatric Consultations

We offer chiropractic care for children, addressing issues such as postural imbalances, growing pains, and musculoskeletal discomfort. Our gentle, child-friendly treatments aim to promote overall health from a young age.

Expectant Moms

Pregnancy places additional strain on the body, and we provide tailored treatments to help relieve discomfort associated with pregnancy. Our care helps to improve posture, reduce back pain, and enhance overall comfort during this time.

Ergonomic Solutions

We provide ergonomic assessments and advice to help you set up your work and home environment in a way that supports good posture and prevents discomfort or injury. This includes guidance on desk posture, seating, and other ergonomic adjustments.

Electrotherapy & Ultrasound Therapy

Our electrotherapy treatments use electrical impulses to stimulate muscles and reduce pain, while ultrasound therapy promotes healing and reduces inflammation in soft tissues. Both are effective modalities used to address pain and improve mobility.
