How we can help.
We are focused on helping our clients obtain optimum health, where they’re able to live life to the fullest.
Listed below are some of the main health issues that we deal with, and we are well experienced in helping our clients overcome these issues through various forms of treatment and by empowering them to take control of their health.
General Wellness.
Over time, built up stress can cause dysfunctions in our body. Stress comes in many forms, whether it be mental, emotional, physical or chemical.
Our treatments focus on the care of the nervous system – because we view things holistically, and while we generally see physical symptoms such as aches and pains, we know that through caring for the whole body and through supporting all aspects of our being that we can improve overall health.
The treatments we offer are focused on supporting the nervous system and enhancing the functionality of it. We do this through chiropractic care and alignment of the spine to ensure the nervous system is functioning at its best, but also through applied kinesiology where we look at what else is going on in the body through muscle testing, and then we look to address these issues through supplements, natural medicines, nutrition advice and the reduction of stress.
Many of our clients have regular sessions to support general health and use our treatments as a preventative to the build up of stress which can lead to bigger health issues.
Injury & Chronic Pain.
If you’re injured or suffering from chronic pain, you’ll know how inhibiting it can be on living your best life.
Most often, chronic pain will be the result of an underlying issue, whether it be due to injury or other cause. Often chronic pain can lead on to other issues such as sleep disorders, digestive problems or depression.
With a review of medical history and a clients’ symptoms we can help identify the core of chronic pain and provide treatments to help alleviate the issue. Chiropractic adjustments will realign the nervous system and allow relief from inflammation and irritation. Chiropractic alignment also enables healthy nerve function, meaning the body’s functionality, movement and overall function can be improved.
Digestive Issues.
The symptoms of illness or health issues that we deal with will always have a root cause, and our chiropractic and applied kinesiology treatments can help determine underlying issues with our bodies that may be manifesting as gut health or digestive issues. Common issues that we see, and are able to help with include:
Bloating;
Abdominal pain and cramping;
Heart burn;
Constipation and Diarrhoea.
An aligned spine is essential for the proper functioning of the body. By improving the functionality of the central nervous system, through chiropractic adjustments, we’re opening the systems of the body which means our body will function better.
And with applied kinesiology we can recommend certain digestive enzymes or changes in lifestyle to help improve and heal digestive issues. Most health problems are a result of too much inflammation in the body and we find a major source of this comes from the gut.
Energy.
We work harder, have longer days, take on more responsibility, have financial pressures and the list goes on, but the result is often that we find we don’t have the energy to continue to function at that pace.
We commonly see:
Adrenal Fatigue;
Thyroid issues;
Lack of vitality.
It requires a lot of energy to repair any damage in the body - if you have chronic illness or injuries you won’t have spare energy to do the things you want do. Healing these chronic injuries or illnesses is a very important start to improving energy levels.
By treating the core of our body, the musculoskeletal system, we’re providing a good basis for wellness and health. Through applied kinesiology we can help identify other supplements and tools that will be able to support the body’s functioning and help support lifestyle changes.
Children’s Health.
At J.R Chiropractic we’re particularly passionate about supporting families and their health journey.
Chiropractic care for children establishes a solid foundation for their health and nervous system which will lead to healthier development.
A child, just like we all do through life, faces different stressors which put strain on their body and could result in health issues. Common support that we provide to children include:
Adjustments of newborns following birth;
Checking and aligning following injuries;
Supporting the immune system;
Helping sleep patterns by reducing stress and tension that could be causing discomfort.
When we treat a child to ensure their body is in alignment, we are opening the pathways for the nervous system, allowing the body to function properly. Our spine connects to each of our organs, and through the nervous system the messages from our brain flow to our organs, so when things are out of line, communication is inhibited and our bodies get out of sync and become sluggish.
By realigning the spine we open up the pathways of communication for better health and development.
Mood & Mental Health.
Life is busy, responsibilities are great and as a result we see that there is increased stress, anxiety and depression with our clients.
When our nervous system isn’t functioning as well as it should, we’re not able to function at 100%, meaning that things all feel a lot harder than they should. Through aligning the nervous system we’re supporting our system by opening up the pathways of communication between our nerves and our brain.
Then through applied kinesiology we look for any imbalances in the body which may be contributing to your symptoms.
Women’s Health.
We have worked with many woman in supporting hormonal health and in balancing their hormones.
Often symptoms that we find our clients identify include irregular periods, menopause, unexplained weight gain or loss, digestive issues, anxiety, fatigue or depression which could often be as a result of lifestyle factors, causing hormone imbalance. When your spine is out of line the nerves are not sending or receiving messages clearly which leads to some of these symptoms.
Not all woman are blessed with conceiving as soon as they start trying, and which is why we suggest that to support conception, woman should work on their reproductive health for a year prior to conception.
By working on the spine’s alignment and the overall nervous system, we work to ensure that bodies are in the best state prior to giving birth. Chiropractic care during pregnancy has been reported to support a more straightforward labour and delivery of baby.
