At Macedon Chiropractic we offer the following services to make
sure you and your family have the support you need.

Chiropractic

Chiropractic is based on the scientific fact that your body is a self-regulating, self-healing organism.
These important functions are controlled by the brain and nervous system. If your spine is not moving properly or out of alignment, the nervous system is affected and the body loses its ability to function properly.

Chiropractic care is gentle, safe and effective. It focuses on improving health and relieving pain via gentle specific adjustments. The adjustment addresses both the structure (posture and alignment) and function (nervous system) of the body and can be applied through a number of techniques. People of all ages can benefit from chiropractic care from babies to grandparents and everyone else in between. No matter how old you are, you deserve to be healthy.

Massage & Myotherapy

Whether it’s a long-term ache from work related stress or an acute strain during your sporting pursuit you will benefit from our highly trained Myotherapist and Massage therapists.  Massage can help to relieve pain, improve movement, reduce stress, and get you back to your very best.

Myotherapy can help to identify the underlying cause and help to reduce pain, enhance functional movement, and restore balance using techniques such as Deep Tissue Massage, Dry Needling, Cupping and Mobilisation. Myotherapy is great for any muscle and joint pain like, strains and injuries and general body aches.

Myofascial release is a gentle yet dynamic hands-on technique that uses targeted directional pressure through the layers of fascia, unwinding twists and wrong turns in the system to correct balance, releasing muscles and joints. Myofascial release aims to help to eliminate pain, restore range of motion, reset the proprioceptive system, and achieve better body awareness.

Acupuncture & Chinese Medicine

Chinese medicine philosophy is founded on the premise that good health is achieved through the restoration and maintenance of balance within the individual. Treatments focus on addressing the root cause of a health problem, using tools such as acupuncture and herbal medicine to restore balance and support the body’s own healing mechanisms.

Acupuncture has an effect on the nervous system, tapping into the electrical aspect of the body and is used to balance normal physiological functions in the body.

Chinese herbal medicine is one aspect of this holistic style of medicine, which is very specific to each individual. Herbal formulas are prescribed according to each individual’s signs and symptoms. For example, patients with the same diagnosed disease or condition in Western medicine may be treated very differently from each other in Chinese herbal medicine, according to their own specific presentations.

Acupuncture and Chinese medicine can be beneficial for people of all ages and for a wide range of health complaints.
