An initial consultation includes a discussion of your problem and medical history, followed by physical examination. The examination may include a health check, postural assessment, functional assessment, neurological assessment and orthopaedic assessment, with observation and palpation of the areas being examined. Findings are then discussed with you, including treatment options where appropriate.

Treatment may include integrated physical, manual and electrical therapies selected for your specific problem.

A therapeutic and relaxation massage suite is also available.

If further diagnostic examinations are needed, the Doctor of Chiropractic may discuss MRI scans or blood tests, arranged through your GP or directly through private services. The clinic also uses formal reassessment at set points in treatment and may refer for further investigation or to another specialist where required.
