Services Offered

Dr Lauren Hilliar provides a variety of services to help her patients improve their health and quality of life. Whether you’re recovering from an injury, seeking pain relief, or aiming to improve posture, Dr Hilliar offers personalised care to meet your needs.

Chiropractic Adjustments

Dr Hilliar performs chiropractic adjustments to help realign the spine and joints. These adjustments can alleviate pain, increase mobility, and improve overall function. They are ideal for treating back pain, neck pain, headaches, and joint stiffness.

Dry Needling

Dry needling is a technique used to treat muscle pain and tightness. By inserting fine needles into specific trigger points, it helps release muscle tension and promote faster recovery. Dr Hilliar uses dry needling to treat conditions such as muscle spasms and stiffness.

Pregnancy and Postpartum Care

With a focus on women’s health, Dr Hilliar offers specialised care for pregnant women and those in the postpartum phase. Chiropractic adjustments and corrective exercises help manage common pregnancy-related issues such as back pain, sciatica, and pelvic discomfort. Postpartum care focuses on rehabilitation and restoring strength and mobility after childbirth.

Soft Tissue Techniques

To support the body’s healing process, Dr Hilliar uses soft tissue techniques to relax tight muscles and improve circulation. These methods are effective in treating muscle strains, injuries, and tension caused by poor posture or repetitive movement.

Spinal and Extremity Joint Adjustments

In addition to spinal care, Dr Hilliar offers adjustments for extremity joints, such as the shoulders, elbows, and knees. These adjustments help restore joint function, reduce pain, and improve overall movement, especially for those suffering from sports injuries or repetitive strain.

Postural Care

Posture plays a significant role in overall health. Dr Hilliar helps patients identify and correct postural issues that may be causing pain or discomfort. She provides advice on exercises and stretches to improve posture and prevent future issues.

Patient Education

Dr Hilliar believes in empowering her patients with knowledge. She provides valuable insights on exercise, nutrition, and lifestyle changes that can help improve health. Her goal is to educate and motivate patients to take an active role in their own wellness.
