What is Chiropractic?

​

Chiropractic is a type of complementary medicine with various definitions in different articles and other scientific resources. According to the World Health Organization’s (WHO) definition, chiropractic is “a health care profession concerned with the diagnosis, treatment and prevention of disorders of the neuromusculoskeletal system, and the effects of these disorders on general health”.

​

Chiropractors are experts at caring for your patients' spines.

​

Chiropractors are 5 year university trained health professionals that are specially trained to assess, diagnose and treat spinal dysfunctions, in a conservative non-surgical way.

​

At Croydon Chiropractic Centre, we take a holistic, neuro-musculo-skeletal, approach to assessing and caring for your patient's spine. This means that we use the best available scientific evidence to figure out why your patient's body is acting the way it is - whether it is pain, balance disorders, functional limitations or other symptoms that are troubling you. We understand that your patients are individuals, and that there are many factors that can cause, exacerbate or perpetuate their condition, and we aim to address all of these issues, so that we can help them to live their most optimal life, and keep doing the things that they love to do.

​

We utilise a variety of chiropractic techniques and modalities including manual adjustments (spinal manipulations), and also gentler alternatives to cater to their condition and preferences. We use state of the art equipment, which help us to accurately diagnose and effectively treat your patient in a timely manner.

​

We also love what we do and wholeheartedly believe in caring for our community to allow families to experience the benefits of chiropractic.

​

We hope that by providing your patients the best service we can provide, they will feel, move and function better!
