Forrest Chiropractic Services
Your body is self-regulating, self-healing, and even self-adjusting.
Since the nervous system is the master controller of the body, it makes sense to optimise nervous system function.
The moving bones of the spine and skull encase and protect the vulnerable
communication pathways of the nervous system, that is — the brain, spinal cord and nerves. Chiropractors call disruptions in the spine “subluxations”.
It follows that the essential messages to and from your body and senses will be distorted by these disruptions.
These disruptions and resultant health challenges are usually caused by a combination of physical, chemical and emotional stressors.
The chiropractic adjustment is the application of a precise force to the body to free it of these disruptions. The skill is applying this force at the right location, in the correct direction and at an appropriate time to make the greatest change with the least amount of effort. There are many techniques of chiropractic adjustment, certainly well over 120, from the lightest touch to the more traditional manual adjustment.
Following assessment and drawing from a range of chiropractic techniques and
experience we base a care plan individualised to each person’s unique situation.
If you have a spine and a nervous system, then you can benefit.
Whether you’re stressed, depressed, in pain, or wanting to live in your highest possibility you can benefit from our services.
We understand that health and healing is an ongoing process, and the nervous system and spinal function is central to this.
Laser therapy, otherwise known as cold laser therapy or low-level laser therapy (LLLT), is a non-invasive, painless treatment that uses focused light which penetrates deeply into the tissues of the body, boosting the body’s natural healing ability in response to pain, inflammation, swelling or muscle spasms.
Research and clinical trials show that when the laser is applied to the skin, light is absorbed by the damaged cells. This increases the natural production of collagen and ATP. ATP is the energy source for every cell in your body. So, your cells are effectively using more energy. As a bonus, they can rejuvenate themselves and repair any damage while in this state. It is a safe and effective treatment for many acute and chronic conditions.
