Chiropractic is based on the scientific fact that your nervous system controls the function of every cell, tissue, organ and system of your entire body.
Chiropractors help restore function back to the spine. Using a variety of physical techniques including massage, adjustment, mobilisation or manipulation of the spine, related tissue and joints – your chiropractor will return joints to a normal range of movement, relieve pressure and alleviate pain.
What Can Chiropractic Help With?
All types of conditions are confidently managed by our chiropractic team.
An infant and child chiropractor is a clinician capable of delivering gentle chiropractic care to a child, observing at all times the clinical parameters which would require that child to be referred to other health professionals where necessary.
Dr Glenn Maginness has a special interest in infants and children’s health and has seen only children in practice since 2002. He graduated in 1986 from RMIT University as a Doctor of Chiropractic and he completed a Masters degree in Chiropractic Paediatrics in 1998.
