Chiropractic Care
Comprehensive Chiropractic Solutions for Lasting Wellness
When vertebrae become dysfunctional or stop moving properly, they create nerve interference that can affect your entire body’s function. At Cornerstone Chiropractic, we specialise in identifying and correcting these subluxations using a diverse range of proven techniques tailored to your specific needs. Rather than following a rigid, one-size-fits-all approach, we draw from multiple chiropractic methods to ensure you receive the most effective treatment possible.
Our expertise spans the full spectrum of chiropractic care, from gentle techniques suitable for elderly patients and newborns to more intensive approaches for athletes and active individuals.
We’re particularly proud of our success with challenging cases that other practitioners might find too complex – patients who’ve struggled with chronic conditions for decades often find the relief they’ve been seeking at our clinic.
Our Advanced Treatment Approach
We utilise a carefully selected combination of proven chiropractic techniques, including Gonstead, SOT (Sacro-Occipital Technique), Thompson drop-table methods, and impulse adjustment devices. For postural correction, we employ CBP (Chiropractic BioPhysics) and mirror image techniques, whilst our neurologically-based treatments incorporate the latest advances in functional rehabilitation.
Your treatment plan is never random – every technique is chosen based on your age, activity level, specific condition, and individual response to care. For example, if you’re dealing with acute pain, we might begin with gentler SOT and Thompson techniques combined with traction. For postural problems, we’ll focus on specific postural-based adjustments and corrective exercises.
NEW PATIENTS
Evidence-Based Care You Can Trust
Every aspect of our treatment is grounded in current research and clinical evidence. We don’t rely on guesswork – our comprehensive assessment process includes detailed case history, postural analysis, range of movement testing, and when necessary, referrals for X-rays or additional imaging. This thorough approach ensures we understand exactly what’s causing your symptoms before beginning treatment.
- Comprehensive initial assessment and ongoing monitoring
- Research-based treatment protocols tailored to your needs
- Clear communication about your condition and treatment progress
- Integration of lifestyle advice, exercises, and nutritional support
- Collaboration with other healthcare providers when beneficial
Our focus remains primarily on chiropractic adjustments and spinal correction, enhanced by targeted soft tissue work, essential nutritional support, and home exercise programmes. We believe in addressing root causes rather than merely managing symptoms, leading to more sustainable, long-term improvements in your health and wellbeing.
Conditions We See
Our patient-centred approach has proven particularly effective for individuals suffering from chronic conditions that significantly impact quality of life. We regularly help patients with nerve-related issues including sciatica, thoracic outlet syndrome, and arm pain. Headache and migraine sufferers often experience remarkable improvement, as do those struggling with postural problems from modern lifestyle demands.
We welcome patients dealing with complex, long-standing issues – many of our most rewarding success stories involve individuals who’ve suffered for 20+ years before finding lasting relief through our comprehensive approach. Our willingness to take time, perform thorough assessments, and persist with challenging cases sets us apart from practitioners who might prefer simpler conditions.
Frequently Asked Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
Does chiropractic treatment hurt?
Most people find chiropractic treatment comfortable. Responses vary between individuals and with the type of technique used. Many patients feel relief or a sense of lightness after treatment. Occasionally some people experience mild, short-lived soreness similar to how muscles can feel after exercise.
What is that popping or clicking noise?
The popping or clicking noise you sometimes hear is a normal release of gas bubbles from the joint fluid. It is common and not usually a cause for concern.
When can I expect to feel better?
Improvement depends on many factors including age, how long the problem has been present and overall health. Some people notice changes after a few visits, while others follow a short programme of care to support recovery. We will always discuss realistic expectations and review progress with you regularly.
Can I come if I am in a lot of pain?
Yes. If you are in significant pain we encourage you to contact us. We will assess your symptoms, provide initial guidance, and advise on the most appropriate next steps to help you towards relief and recovery.
What is the difference between a Chiropractor, Osteopath and Physiotherapist?
Chiropractors focus on the spine and nervous system and how these relate to general function. Osteopaths and physiotherapists also work with the musculoskeletal system but have different training and approaches. There is overlap in techniques, and each profession contributes valuable, complementary skills to patient care.
What does an adjustment feel like?
People report a range of sensations depending on the technique used. Many say they feel relieved, more upright or lighter after an adjustment. Some describe a mild fatigue similar to what you might feel after exercise. We will explain what to expect and tailor approaches to your comfort level.
Am I too old or too young for chiropractic care?
Chiropractic care is adapted for each person. We treat newborns through to older adults by tailoring techniques to the individual’s age and needs. If you have specific concerns we will discuss the safest options for you or your child.
Do I need X-rays?
Not necessarily. Your chiropractor will decide if imaging is appropriate based on your case history and clinical examination. If imaging is recommended, we will explain why it is needed and discuss the options with you before proceeding.
Is chiropractic care expensive?
Costs vary depending on the type and length of care required. Many patients find the benefits outweigh the cost, particularly when care helps reduce ongoing problems. We accept a number of private insurance plans and are happy to discuss fees and payment options with you.
