Chiropractic care is based on the understanding that the nervous system controls all parts of the body. The spine is a strong set of bones in the body, but stresses such as falls, emotional stress, tension, overexertion, and other injuries, can cause the spine to work in ways that are not quite normal. This abnormal function can irritate the delicate spinal nerves that exit the spine between each bone. Chiropractors call this problem a Vertebral Subluxation. Instead of using drugs or surgery, chiropractors seek to improve body function through your nervous system by making minor adjustments to the joints of the spine which reduces the nerve irritation that is caused by subluxations. A visit to your chiropractor in Mackay is beneficial in that it can help speed your body's natural healing process and correct these issues.

Chiropractic care can act as a catalyst and help the body to speed the healing process. There are many more benefits you’ll experience with a regular visit to your chiropractor in Mackay including easier breathing,  better athletic performance, increased nervous system performance, and overall a healthier you.

Emergency Chiropractic Care Adjustments

This stage of care is aimed at getting you out of pain as quickly as possible. This is the most intensive stage of care, and aims to restore joint function and control inflammation as quickly as possible.

Corrective Chiropractic Care

Corrective care is the initial stage of care designed to keep giving your body the tools it needs to begin to heal and improve your level of health. It is aimed at improving the biomechanical habits of your spine for better neurological communication in your body. This involves restoring normal function to your spine, and will also help prevent relapses or similar injuries later. Corrective care consists of regular adjustments over a period of 4 - 12 weeks (depending on the case). At the end of this block, a re-scan and re-examination is performed to assess the amount of progress that has occurred over this time. Should further corrective care blocks be required, an appropriate course of care is then recommended by your chiropractor.
