Treatment Techniques

At Balance Chiropractic we utilise many modalities in order to get you well as quickly as possible. These include but are not limited to:

1. Chiropractic Adjustments

   A foundational aspect of chiropractic care, these adjustments involve precise manual manipulations to realign the spine, helping to restore proper joint movement and improve overall nervous system function.

2. Dry Needling

   A targeted approach that uses thin needles to release tension in tight muscles, reduce discomfort, and stimulate the body’s natural healing response in affected areas.

3. Cupping

   This therapeutic technique uses suction to create negative pressure on the skin, improving blood circulation, relieving muscle stiffness, and aiding in the recovery of injured tissues.

4. Soft Tissue Techniques

   Using specialized methods like soft tissue mobilization, myofascial release, and trigger point therapy, these techniques reduce muscle tightness, relieve pain, and enhance mobility.

5. Thompson Technique

   This technique uses a unique drop table to deliver quick, low-force adjustments, allowing for efficient and comfortable spinal corrections without excessive pressure.

6. Diversified Technique

   A commonly used technique that focuses on manual spinal adjustments, tailored to address joint dysfunction, improve range of motion, and alleviate pain by targeting specific problem areas.

7. Activator Method

   A gentle, instrument-based technique where controlled, low-force adjustments are made, offering a more precise and less hands-on alternative to traditional manual adjustments.

8. Flexion-Distraction Technique

   A technique primarily used for disc injuries, this method gently stretches and decompresses the spine, making it especially useful for conditions like bulging or herniated discs.

9. Postural Correction

   Focusing on improving body alignment, this approach combines adjustments with targeted exercises to correct posture-related issues, reducing strain on the body and enhancing overall function.
