Chiropractic for you and your family
Chiropractic, since its beginnings, has been focused on restoring normal function. To do this, we focus on boosting the connections between your nervous system and the body. If your concerned about your body's ability to operate normally and feel that the pain you experience is not normal, book a consult to determine where your body could work better or even call the office to determine if chiropractic is the right fit for you. If you are booking for a family member and want to see how we can help them, please let us know and we will do our best.

We educate our patients about chiropractic and other natural solutions to common health problems in order to give you a more active and responsible role in restoring and maintaining your health.

When is the right time to be seen by a chiropractor
if you are pregnant
Natural and common are two different things. It is common to experience pain but that does not mean it is normal. The moment you suffer from pain is the moment to make a booking. Ideally we would see each pregnant mum as soon as they are comfortable to come in for an assessment, there is no time too early to have a an assessment and get checked. If everything is progressing well an initial assessment around 20 weeks is a great place to start.
Certified by the International Chiropractic Paediatric Association.
Both Drs James and Jenna are certified through the International Chiropractic Pediatric Association. They have completed over 3 years of post graduate studies, 200 classroom hours and 4 research studies specifically based on pregnancy and paediatric chiropractic care.
