What is Chiropractic?
Chiropractic is a healthcare profession that restores optimal function by influencing the nervous system. We recognise that your body has to constantly adapt to your internal and external environements, we help this adaption by ensuring that the brain and body are communicating free of interferance.
The basic premise of chiropractic is a holistic one: that symptoms arise from a breakdown in your body’s ability to coordinate function and not just bad luck. That coordination happens through your nervous system.
Sacro Occipital Technique® (SOT®) Explained
We use the Sacro Occipital Technique (SOT), a gentle method that focuses on improving the balance and alignment of the pelvis, spine, and cranium. Misalignment or imbalance within these areas can interfere with your central nervous system and subsequently your body’s ability to coordinate its individual functions.
The intimate relationship between the spine and your central nervous system is the reason why SOT Chiropractors are synonymous with back trouble, but it also the reason why so many achive relief from other seeminlgly unrelated conditions.
SOT aims to maintain a nervous system free of interference which subsequently improves your ability to coordinate vital tissue function such as healing and repair.
Why Should You See a Chiropractor?
Keeping your nervous system free of intereferene and your body balanced over time, not only keeps symptoms away, but increases your body’s resilience to daily stressors and activities.
We see a range of conditions in the clinic ranging from muscle and joint ache to complex health presentations.
Chiropractic does not claim to treat medical conditions or systemic illnesses. We focus on the nervous system and its impact on your bodily functions.
What to Expect from Your Sessions
Our Chiropractos prioritise education, explaining how spinal mechanics may relate to physical symptoms. We work within a clinical framework that values gentle care, clear communication and, where appropriate, coordination with your GP or other healthcare professionals.
At each visit, our chiropractors carry out a detailed six point assessment to understand how your body is responding on that day. This includes:
- Postural observation
- Manual muscle testing
- Spinal motion assessment
- Pelvic Reflex testing
- Heel tension evaluation
- Cranial reflex point testing
