At South Mission Chiropractic, Jess draws on a variety of chiropractic techniques, movement, and lifestyle advice to help get to the root of what is happening with you!
While most people think of 'cracking' with chiropractic, there are many other techniques that can be utilised as well or instead of. The key is finding what works for you...
After taking a thorough history, an examination is performed to determine what technique will be most safe and effective.
Often we need to look deeper than the adjustment to the following:
-
lifestyle factors
-
dysfunctional breathing
-
compensatory movement patterns
-
core dysfunction
-
emotional triggers.
Integrative Chiropractic Care is always personalised to you and your goals and your lifestyle

As a chiropractor with additional training in paediatrics, integrated movement, and holistic health, I focus on addressing not just symptoms, but the patterns behind them
Children and Chiropractic
Chiropractic techniques used on kids are quite gentle and effective.
The movements of early development (milestones) are important markers of brain development.
Assessing how your child moves and identifying where there is tension in their body can allow better regulation of the nervous system and support their growth and development.
Chiropractic Techniques that meet you where you're at
We integrate a variety of techniques to suit your needs, preferences and goals.
Whether its manual adjustments, the activator, cranial work, organ reflexes, pelvic blocks, the drop piece table, neuro-emotional technique, or other suitable techniques, the goal is to have you feeling safe, supported, aligned and stronger ​
Sacro-occipital Technique
Using gentle pelvic blocks and light cranial work, Sacro-occpital Technique may be what's been missing, to allow optimal alignment and improved spinal movement
Neuro-Emotional Technique
Neuro-Emotional technique is used to determine if there is an emotional component to your problem. Drawing on Chinese Medicine principles, the links between organs and associated emotions are assessed. Spinal segments linked to the organ are used to clear the emotional pattern.
Thompson Drop Piece
The Thompson Chiropractic technique is a gentle and effective approach that utilises a specialised drop table to moderate force input needed to generate improved alignment
Activator
The Activator Chiropractic Technique offers a gentle yet effective approach to spinal adjustments, utilising precise low-force impulses to help with alignment and function
Manual chiropractic adjustments
Manual chiropractic techniques are what people know to be the 'cracking'. Speed, rather than force is what makes a manual adjustment feel comfortable. Specific areas of the spine that have dysfunction in movement are located by chiropractors and adjusted accordingly.
