RESTORING YOUR BODY'S INNER HEALTH
Chiropractic
Restoring your body's inner health.
After 5 years of university training and 20 plus years of clinical experience, Dr Michael Davis is skilled in the delivery of a variety of adjusting techniques that may assist your body in attaining a state of optimal health and wellbeing.
At Blackwood Village Health, our aim is to treat the whole person, not just a set of symptoms. Treatment is always specifically tailored and dynamic, according to the age, presentation and progress of each patient.
Whilst adjustments of the spine and associated structures form an integral part of what we do, it is only a part of our philosophy of treating the entire person as a whole.
Manual adjustments of the spine and peripheral structures are used in this clinic, as are cranial and visceral techniques, muscle relaxation techniques, meridian procedures and nutritional supplementation.
PREVENTATIVE TREATMENT
Your wellbeing and overall health is our focus
It is fair to say that the main reason why most people would seek out chiropractic care would be due to pain. Whether it be back, neck, arm, hand, leg or foot pain, headache, jaw pain, numbness, pins and needles, altered sensation or any combination of these.
Naturally, our prime initial objective would be symptomatic relief, following which the underlying causes might be addressed. Once symptomatic relief has been achieved it is then possible to look at physical, chemical and emotional aspects of a person’s life that may have contributed to their current situation.
Looking a little deeper and addressing the “bigger picture” can often eliminate some of the external stressors and may reduce the number of treatments required for a presenting condition.
