Initially you didn’t believe chiropractic care was any good, but now you stand corrected
Too often, chiropractic care is still a shrouded mystery as there are misconceptions that perpetuate misinformation and downplay the benefit of chiropractic care. Patients often find our clinic as a result of a direct referral from a family member or friend, so it goes without saying that patients may feel anxious when entering our clinic, a little uncertain of what manual therapy is.
To add a little context, the word chiropractic is a combination of the two Greek words ‘cheir’ meaning to hand and ‘praktos’ meaning to done or done by hand. A very fitting name if you ask our very own Chris!
Chiropractic care focuses on your muscles, bones and joints. The care we provide in our clinic helps you to feel your best, as we work alongside you to prescribe a change in your lifestyle, exercises or provide chiropractic adjustments. The end goal is for you to get back on track and live your best life.
Things you should know about chiropractic care
Chiropractic care isn’t ‘new’
Chiropractic care dates back to ancient Egypt, however the first reported adjustment was performed in the late 1800s with a strong focus on massage and meridian therapies. Today, chiropractic care has evolved and adapted.
At Kinetic Healthcare, we provide a current and effective varied treatment approach that includes; movement assessment screens, manipulations, soft tissue releases, dry needling, bracing, taping and exercise prehabilitation and rehabilitation.

Consistency is key
Usually, patients will seek our care when they are in a lot of pain. Like most treatments, chiropractic treatments won’t cure your body in just one or two sessions. We treat each client that walks through our door individually, as we know that each body will have a different healing capacity.
Keeping in mind, we provide individualised rehabilitation programs and we encourage our clients to remain consistent in their exercises and movement to ensure we are on track with health goals.
Regular tune up sessions are always helpful when staying on track with your health goals. A check in is ideal to remain focused on the improvement of lifestyle and ensuring your body is working and moving as naturally as possible.
