YOUR NORTH FREMANTLE CHIROPRACTOR

Chiropractic focus on the diagnosis, treatment and prevention of disorders of the musculoskeletal system and the effects these problems have on the nervous system and your general health. Chiropractic is a drug free, non-invasive natural form of health care used by hundreds of thousands of Australians. In Australia, Chiropractors undergo at least 5 years university training and are nationally registered health professionals. They use a variety of manual techniques to aid the body and combine this with rehabilitation programming to ensure the best results.

In general absolutely not. We adapt techniques to provide you with the best results whilst making it a comfortable experience during your session. In general any soreness post-treatment is similar to the muscle soreness felt from a good gym session.

Absolutely, as once stated by the Royal New Zealand Commission of Inquiry on Chiropractic, chiropractic is “remarkably safe.” especially when compared to other forms of musculoskeletal care. There are around 300,000 visits to chiropractors in Australia every week including 30,000 of those for paediatric patients. More interestingly a recent government inquiry into the safety of Chiropractic paediatric care demonstrated no record of serious adverse event ever in Australia.

We don’t take x-rays or any other scan on-site. But if necessary for your care we can refer you directly to local radiology clinics. The majority of these referrals are bulk-billed and you are usually able to get the scan the same day.

Then through the use of different techniques we are able to provide the highest quality care no matter what the age of the patient.

The noise or ‘crack’ as it is often referred to is simply an exchange of gas across a joint surface. It is a common misconception that it is actually the bone causing the noise or that it can cause arthritis of a joint which is simply untrue.

No, as five-year university-trained professionals Chiropractors are considered primary health practitioners. As such no referral is required. At North Fremantle Chiropractic we work closely with many local GPs, physios, and other health professionals to get the best outcomes for patients.
