Chiropractic Care

Chiropractic care is a hands-on, drug-free approach to health care, centred on the health of the brain and spinal cord—the central nervous system—as it relates to the systematic functions throughout the human body. Kirwan Complete Care is proud to provide quality care performed by leading professionals.

How We Help

The nervous system is responsible for coordinating all functions of the body. Any unwelcome pressure on parts of the system will cause interference, resulting in a lack of communication between your nervous system and the rest of the body.

Chiropractors focus on revitalising communication to decrease pain and discomfort. While adjustments may be uncomfortable for some, they’re usually trouble-free and done in a timely manner. Most patients experience quick, if not immediate, relief.

Some conditions chiropractic may help with include:

Caring for Mum

At Kirwan Complete Care, we consider it an honour to care for pregnant women. While pregnancy can be a beautiful time in a woman’s life, there’s often some discomfort that goes along with that. The growing baby changes her centre of gravity, affecting how she stands and walks, putting pressure on joints and ligaments.

We offer gentle care appropriate to the stage of pregnancy. We have maternity pillows for Mum’s comfort and customise our care to help her remain pain-free and relaxed throughout. The earlier you start therapeutic care, the better. Our mums tell us they have less pain during labour and deliver faster than without chiropractic care.

Our Techniques

Dr Paul bases care on the patient’s unique needs and future goals. While there are several adjustment methods used to maintain spinal health, we primarily use the following:

Diversified Technique – one of the oldest and most used methods, it employs a high-velocity, low-amplitude (HVLA) thrust to bring the spine or joint back into alignment and restore range of motion in the problem area. This short, quick pressure applied by the chiropractor allows for a release of muscle or joint tension, ultimately leading to pain relief and a reduction of other symptoms, such as stiffness.

Thompson Technique – also known as the Thompson Drop Table, involves a particular, segmented table that drops a short distance, allowing for a lighter, more comfortable correction. Often used with other techniques, this gentle method of care quickly lowers the section of the patient’s body that corresponds with the spinal region being adjusted, facilitating movement in the joint and restoring a range of motions.

Activator® Method – The Activator tool is a gentle, adjusting instrument commonly used to address symptoms such as back pain, neck pain and headaches. The Activator tool delivers a low-force pulse to the spine to reinstate motion to the intended spinal vertebra or joint.
