Pain Relief

Chronic or acute pain can disrupt your daily life. Some common pain areas that we support in our clinic include knee pain, jaw pain, sciatic pain, elbow pain, shoulder pain, and low back pain, just to name a few. Our chiropractors can help manage these pains by addressing their root causes through gentle adjustments, soft tissue therapy, and rehabilitation exercises. We work with you to find relief without relying on medications.

Low Back, Mid Back, and Neck Pain

Back pain is one of the most common reasons people seek chiropractic care. We address back pain caused by muscle strain, joint dysfunction, or disc issues with spinal manipulation, mobilization, and strengthening exercises tailored to your body.

Repetitive Sprain/Strain Injuries

Injuries from repetitive movements, such as those caused by office work or physical labour, can lead to chronic pain. We focus on relieving strain, improving alignment, and strengthening affected areas.

Whiplash

Whiplash is a common injury after car accidents. This type of injury causes neck stiffness, headaches, and chronic pain. Our chiropractic team uses gentle adjustments and therapeutic techniques to restore movement and reduce inflammation.

Sports-Related Injuries

Sports injuries, whether from overuse or impact, can cause significant discomfort and hinder performance. We specialize in treating sprains, strains, and joint injuries to help athletes recover quickly and improve their performance.

Sciatica and Disc-Related Issues

Sciatica may cause tingling, pain, or numbness radiating from the lower back down into the leg. Our chiropractors use targeted adjustments and special exercises to relieve nerve pressure and improve spinal health.

Poor Posture

Poor posture can lead to bad back and neck pain, as well as long-term spinal issues. We provide postural assessments, corrections, and exercises to promote a healthier alignment.

Migraine and Tension Headaches

Migraines and tension headaches can often be linked to shoulder tension or tension in the neck. Chiropractic adjustments and soft tissue therapy can help reduce the frequency and severity of headaches.

Upper and Lower Extremity Issues

Joint dysfunction or overuse injuries can cause pain in the arms, legs, shoulders, or hips. We address these issues with focused adjustments and rehab therapies.

Tendonitis, Bursitis, and Osteoarthritis

These inflammatory conditions can limit mobility and cause discomfort. Chiropractic care focuses on reducing inflammation, improving joint function, and supporting long-term joint health.

Pregnancy-Related Back Pain

Pregnancy can place extra stress on the spine and joints. Our chiropractors offer safe, gentle adjustments to help relieve back pain and improve comfort during pregnancy.

    What is Chiropractic Care

    Chiropractic care is a healthcare discipline focused on diagnosing and managing conditions related to the musculoskeletal system, particularly the spine. It emphasizes the relationship between the body’s structure—primarily the spine—and its overall function, including how it affects the nervous system.

    Chiropractic care involves hands-on techniques like spinal adjustments and manual therapies (like deep tissue massage) to improve joint mobility, reduce pain, and support the body’s natural ability to heal. This holistic approach is non-invasive and tailored to each patient. Chiropractic care is a great option for those seeking to support their healing, manage pain, and enhance their physical well-being.
