The Glen Eden Chiropractor to see - Chiropractor Glen Eden

We conduct a thorough examination to locate the cause of your health problem.

Examination

If our consultation suggests that you’d likely be helped with chiropractic care, we’ll need to perform a complete examination. Our West Auckland area patients often comment on how thorough our examination is, compared with other practitioners they’ve consulted.

Our examination varies based upon what we discover during the evaluation of your health history. What we find will tell us which examinations we need to conduct:

Chiropractic

These tests can include postural evaluations, static and dynamic palpation and other procedures to reveal neurological problems.

 

Orthopedic

These examinations test your ability to turn, bend and move key joints of your skeletal system through their expected range of motion.

 

Neurological

We’ll test your dermatomes, deep tendon reflexes, muscle strength and other aspects pointing to the health of your central nervous system.

 

Thermography

Thermography is a way of measuring tiny differences in skin temperature that can reveal nervous system disturbances.

 

Electromyogram

Electromyogram (EMG) is a way of measuring differences in function of the muscles that support the spine.

 

X-ray

Diagnostic imaging can help locate any bone abnormalities, fractures and reveal your spine’s phase of spinal decay.

Ash Asks some important questions of interest to Glen Eden residents - Chiropractor Glen Eden Ash Asks...

How long does it take to form a bone spur?
Many who begin chiropractic care think their problem happened "last week when you bent over funny." But pictures of the spine tell a different story. Chiropractors know it can take your body years to deposit the calcium necessary to form a bone spur. It's your body's response to stress due to gravity or joint malfunction. And chiropractic care can help.
What's a side effect?
It may sound like a bonus; something extra, but chiropractors know it should more accurately called an "unintended effect," and "unwanted effect" or in some cases an "adverse effect." A pill can't come close to matching your body's ability to create and deliver the essential compounds it needs. That's when it's important to make sure your nervous system is working correctly—the purpose of chiropractic care!
