Instrument-assisted chiro adjustment

Chiropractic care focuses on optimising how your body functions – not just relieving symptoms – so you can move, feel and live at your best.

How can chiro help?

Your nervous system plays a role in every function of your body – from movement and posture to how you respond to physical and environmental stress.

Chiropractic care looks at how the spine and nervous system work together. When spinal joints are not moving as freely as they could, this may influence how the body communicates and adapts.  

Adjustments aim to support healthy movement through the spine and surrounding structures. This can help support overall function, including mobility, posture and day-to-day comfort.

Rather than focusing on symptoms alone, chiropractic care at Lawley Park takes a more considered approach – exploring what may be contributing to how you’re feeling and how your body is functioning.

Safe chiropractic techniques

Chiropractic adjustments are hands-on techniques commonly used to assist with joint mobility, musculoskeletal health and supporting your body’s natural balance.

Each approach is carefully assessed and tailored to your individual needs, with attention to areas where movement may feel restricted. Your comfort and safety are always a priority.

Depending on what feels appropriate for you, your chiropractor may use a range of techniques including sacro-occipital technique, activator method, electronic ArthroStim adjusting (see below) and manual approaches.

ArthroStim chiropractic technique

The ArthroStim is a handheld chiropractic tool that delivers rapid, gentle impulses to specific areas of the body. It is designed to assist joint movement and support the nervous system without manual twisting or cracking.

The technique works by delivering controlled, low-force stimulation to areas of restriction, helping to improve mobility and reduce tension in surrounding muscles and joints.

This approach is often used for people who prefer a gentler method of care, including children, older adults, or those with acute pain or sensitivity.

Benefits may include improved joint function, reduced muscle tightness, and a more comfortable treatment experience.

When X-rays are needed

X-rays are not routinely required for chiropractic care.

Your chiropractor will complete a thorough assessment to determine whether imaging is needed. If X-rays are clinically indicated, this will be discussed with you and arranged appropriately. Any existing imaging can also be reviewed where relevant.

We use imaging only when it is likely to add value to your care and treatment planning.

Advanced Neurological Scanning

As part of your chiropractic examination, we may use neurological scanning technology to gather additional information about how your body is functioning.

These scans are quick, comfortable and help provide objective measurements that can be monitored over time.
