Our Services

Many of you reading this will have consulted other medical professionals about a problem. Hopefully you will have been advised what the problem is and how it can be treated. Often however you will not be told why the problem occurred in the first place.

Put another way, “why is your body breaking down”?

For example, if you have right sided hip pain, why is it just in the right hip – why not both? Or if you have left shoulder pain and restricted movement, why? If you are in your 20s or 30s then ageing is not a valid argument. They answer lies in the fact that our body’s form misalignment that they cannot self-correct throughout our lives, even from a young age. These misalignments start to wear joints unevenly creating restriction, degeneration and pain. Furthermore, your body will form compensation patterns to try and correct itself and these compensations may simply move the problem to another part of the body. If the primary misalignment’s can be corrected, then the body can unwind through compensations to a more normal structure.

Obviously, it is not possible to fix all problems, for example those resulting from changes in bone formation due to breaks, fractures, rheumatoid arthritis, and similar pathologies, but improving your body’s structure can help mitigate the issues these cause by optimising function as much as possible.

How do we get these predictable and consistent results?

ABOVE IS A TYPICAL EXAMPLE OF AN INJURY-COMPENSATION PATTERN. MOST PEOPLE HAVE ACCUMULATED MANY OF THESE PATTERNS WHICH LAYER UPON EACH OTHER. THIS CAN CAUSE VERY COMPLICATED SYMPTOMS WITH BONES OUT OF PLACE AS THE HIDDEN ROOT OF THE PROBLEM. WHEN CORRECTED, ALL ASSOCIATED SYMPTOMS ARE NO LONGER PRESENT.

The key corrections of ABC

Mengingeal Releases

The meninges are the protective covering of your central nervous system - your spinal cord, spinal nerves and brain. Certain points in your spine will be under mechanical and neurological stress, so the meninges will thicken and tether to the spinal canal to help support this stress. These tethered spots are adhesion much like scar tissue and need to be released in order for the spine to restore correct posture and movement. Restricted movement of the spine will also cause tension on your brain stem causing headaches, brain fog (fuzzy head / fatigue) and a variety of other unwanted symptoms. We use specific stretched of the body and spine to free up the meningeal adhesions and help restore movement and function to your body.

Correcting Misalignments In Your Body

The main cause of postural problems are bones out of place in a direction that body cannot self correct. Your body has no muscles directly behind the spine to pull backwards, so if vertebra become displaced forward, then the body cannot resolve and instead compensated by twisting, torquing, tilting, and sheering. This causes pain, often in areas of the body that are not where the primary biomechanical problem exists. That is why ABC is a comprehensive full body assessment and treatment rather than just looking at where the pain is. For example, if you trod on a thorn with your right foot, you may limp and favour your left leg and cause pain in the left hip or knee.

We correct the misalignments in your body to enable it to become more upright, stable, and balanced, thus alleviating the pressure on joints, muscles and nerves. When your body is aligned correctly, you will feel lighter. Not just looser, but lighter. Remember, structure is posture. Your posture should hold you up rather than you having to exert effort to support it.

Lifestyle Advice

To maximise the benefit of your ABC chiropractic care we emphasise the importance of supporting your body in day-to-day life correctly, advising on how to sit, sleep and stand (footwear) helping your body recover quickly and smoothly.

We also stock and sell ABC products such as pillows and seat wedges to help keep your body stable and aligned when you sleep and work.
