FAQ

  • What is chiropractic care?

    Chiropractic care is a natural, non-invasive approach to health that focuses on the spine and nervous system. By adjusting joints — especially in the spine — chiropractors help restore mobility, reduce pain, and improve how the body functions overall. Chiropractic care supports the body’s ability to heal and maintain itself.

  • What conditions do chiropractors treat?

    People see chiropractors for a wide range of concerns including:Back and neck pain, Headaches and migraines, Sciatica, Poor posture, Joint stiffness, Pregnancy-related discomfort and Wellness and preventative care. Many patients also find benefits in their sleep, stress levels, and overall energy through regular chiropractic visits.

  • Is chiropractic care safe?

    Yes. Chiropractic is considered a safe, effective healthcare option when performed by a qualified practitioner. At Huntlee Chiropractic, we tailor every adjustment to your age, body type, and health condition. We also conduct thorough assessments before beginning care to ensure you're receiving the right approach.

  • What should I expect during my first visit?

    At your first appointment, we’ll take a full health history, perform a detailed spinal assessment, and discuss any concerns you may have. If necessary, we may take X-rays to get a complete picture of your spinal health. We’ll then outline a care plan that matches your needs and goals.

  • Will I need ongoing care or just a few visits?

    That depends on your condition and goals. Some people visit a chiropractor for short-term relief, while others choose ongoing care to maintain alignment, posture, and overall wellbeing. Just like going to the gym or dentist, consistency helps maintain results.

  • What is corrective chiropractic care?

    Corrective care goes beyond short-term pain relief. It focuses on identifying structural problems in the spine—such as poor posture or abnormal spinal curves—and working to improve them over time. This approach helps reduce pressure on the nervous system and supports long-term health and function.

  • How is corrective care different from standard chiropractic care?

    Standard care often focuses on reducing symptoms. Corrective care aims to improve the structure of the spine itself, often using digital X-rays, postural analysis, and a customised plan to restore healthy alignment. It’s ideal for people who want lasting results, not just temporary relief.

  • Do chiropractic adjustments hurt?

    Most people feel relief during and after an adjustment. Techniques can be gentle and precise, and many patients describe a sense of release or lightness after treatment. You may feel mild soreness the next day, similar to what you’d feel after a good workout—that’s your body adjusting to better function.
