What is Rehab Exercises?

Why Rehab Exercises?

The ultimate goal of rehab exercises is to help individuals regain their physical abilities and enable them to lead a more active and fulfilling life.

Commonly Asked Questions

Chiropractic care has been shown to provide long-term relief for many individuals suffering from musculoskeletal conditions, such as back pain, neck pain, and headaches. By addressing the root cause of the problem and not just the symptoms, chiropractors aim to promote overall wellness and prevent future issues from arising. However, the effectiveness of chiropractic care varies from person to person and depends on various factors such as the severity of the condition, overall health, and lifestyle habits. With ongoing chiropractic care, patients may experience long-term benefits such as increased mobility, improved posture, reduced inflammation, and enhanced overall well-being.

Physiotherapy, on the other hand, is focused on treating physical impairments and disabilities through exercises, manual therapy, and other modalities. Physiotherapists aim to restore function, mobility, and independence to individuals with injuries or chronic conditions. They also provide education and guidance on injury prevention and management.

At our clinic, our chiropractors not only provide expert spinal adjustments and personalised care plans, but also have extensive experience in rehabilitation exercises.

While both chiropractic adjustments and physiotherapy can be effective in treating musculoskeletal conditions, they approach caret from different perspectives.It is important to note that each individual and their condition is unique, and the best care option may vary depending on their specific needs and preferences.

X-rays are often used in chiropractic care to help diagnose and evaluate musculoskeletal conditions. They allow the chiropractor to see the alignment of the spine, severity of your conditions, identify any underlying/potential problems or abnormalities, and tailor a care plan specifically to your needs. 

There are certain situations where X-rays may not be appropriate, such as pregnancy or young children. In these cases, we will use alternative methods to assess the patients.

To see is to know. Not to see is to guess. We don’t guess when it comes to your health.

Chiropractic adjustments are generally safe and comfortable for most patients. Some patients may experience mild discomfort or soreness following an adjustment, but this is usually temporary and can be managed with ice or heat therapy.

Overall, chiropractic adjustments should not be painful or cause excessive discomfort. At our clinic, we prioritise patient comfort and will work with you to ensure a positive and pain-free experience.
