Yes, chiropractic care is generally very safe when performed by a licensed and experienced professional like those at our clinic. Our highly trained chiropractors use proven techniques to ensure your safety and comfort throughout your treatment.

The number of sessions varies depending on your condition, its severity, and how your body responds to treatment. Some patients experience significant relief after just a few sessions, while others may benefit from ongoing care. During your initial consultation, we’ll discuss a recommended treatment plan.

Chiropractic adjustments should not be painful. You may feel pressure or hear popping sounds, but most patients find the process comfortable and relaxing. Our chiropractors are skilled at making you feel at ease throughout the treatment.

Absolutely! While back pain is a common reason people seek chiropractic care, it can also be effective for neck pain, headaches, joint pain, and even some non-musculoskeletal issues. Our holistic approach aims to improve your overall health and well-being, not just address specific symptoms.

Comfortable, loose-fitting clothing that allows for easy movement is best. Be aware that a lot of times we may ask you to remove your socks and shoes during treatment.

The level of discomfort depends on the desired treatment style and the depth of the strokes. Sometimes, it can be a little uncomfortable and sometimes feel like a ‘good hurt’. We aim to achieve the most effective and deepest massage that works with your body’s natural response. Communication with Lily is essential if the pressure is too painful during the massage.

Comfortable and loose clothing is ideal but optional.

Either is acceptable. No rule says you have to remain quiet during a massage or that you have to make small talk. Choose whatever makes you most comfortable.

This depends on your lifestyle, schedule, and budget. Weekly or bi-weekly sessions are ideal for chronic pain issues, avid athletes, or those with stress levels. Monthly sessions may be sufficient for general wellness maintenance. More frequent sessions may be required initially for pain or injury treatment, followed by monthly maintenance sessions.

Massage is not recommended if you are unwell, have a fever, cold, infectious skin condition, or have a diagnosed medical condition like cancer or cardiovascular disease. In these cases, prior medical consent is required from your GP before considering massage.

Most people feel somewhat disoriented and groggy immediately after a massage. This will lift after a while, leaving you feeling relaxed and centred. You may feel sleepy and comfortable for the rest of the day or energised and renewed. With deep work and specific remedial treatment, you may feel tender or sore in the next 24-72 hours, which is normal and part of the healing process.

Remember to drink plenty of water following your massage to keep your muscles hydrated and flush out toxins released during the treatment.

We recommend routine check-ups and cleanings every six months for most patients. However, some individuals may need more frequent visits based on their oral health needs.

Teeth whitening is generally safe and effective when performed by a dental professional. We use high-quality whitening products and customise the treatment to your needs.

With proper care, dental implants can last a lifetime. Regular dental check-ups and good oral hygiene are crucial for this.

Contact our office immediately. We reserve time in our daily schedules for emergency appointments. If you experience severe pain, bleeding, or trauma outside of office hours, go to the nearest emergency room.
