Services Offered

Dr. Sanders offers a comprehensive range of chiropractic services designed to treat various musculoskeletal conditions. Her treatments focus on improving mobility, reducing pain, and enhancing the overall quality of life.

Chiropractic Manipulation and Joint Mobilisation
Dr. Sanders uses precise chiropractic techniques to restore proper movement to joints. These adjustments help reduce pain, improve mobility, and support overall spinal health. Joint mobilisation techniques are particularly effective in gently increasing the range of motion in stiff or painful joints.

Dry Needling
Dry needling involves the insertion of fine needles into trigger points within muscles. This technique helps relieve muscle tension, reduce pain, and improve blood flow. It is especially effective for treating conditions such as chronic muscle pain, tension headaches, and sports injuries.

Massage Therapy and Sports Massage
Massage therapy is an excellent complement to chiropractic care. It helps relax muscles, improve circulation, and reduce stress. Dr. Sanders also offers sports massage, which targets specific muscle groups to aid in recovery from sports injuries and enhance athletic performance.

Flexion Distraction and Cervical Traction
These advanced chiropractic techniques are particularly useful for treating disc-related back pain and neck discomfort. Flexion distraction involves gentle stretching of the spine to reduce pressure on spinal discs. Cervical traction helps relieve neck pain by creating space between the vertebrae, which reduces nerve irritation.

Kinesiology Taping
Kinesiology taping supports injured muscles and joints without restricting movement. It helps reduce pain, improve circulation, and provide stability, making it ideal for athletes and patients recovering from injuries.
