How We Work

Our Sports Chiropractic Approach

Three stages — from root-cause diagnosis through to performance optimisation. We combine chiropractic care with spinal decompression and posture correction when needed.

Assessment & Diagnosis

Full movement screen (FMS/SFMA), video gait analysis for runners, TPI golf swing assessment for golfers. We find the biomechanical fault driving your injury — not just the symptom.

Treatment

Chiropractic adjustment, Active Release Technique (ART), soft tissue therapy, and sports taping. ACC-covered where injury-related — no GP referral required.

Performance Optimisation

Return-to-sport programming, corrective exercises, and sport-specific conditioning. We build resilience into your movement to reduce re-injury risk.
