Manly Chiropractor - A Holistic Approach to Healthcare

Welcome to Luminance Health, where our dedication to helping you feel your best is at the core of our chiropractic practice. In this blog post, we will delve into the holistic and integrative approach of chiropractic care, exploring how tailored treatments, such as the Activator, Sacro-Occipital Technique, Applied Kinesiology, and soft tissue work, can address a wide range of musculoskeletal conditions, from tension headaches, neck pain, back pain, jaw pain, arthritic pain, shoulder pain, ankle pain or sprain, joint pain and sports injuries to digestive dysfunction and nervous system dysregulation.

Hannah graduated from Macquarie University with a Masters of Chiropractic and Bachelor of Human Sciences. She has undergone further study in Sacro-Occipital Technique (SOT) and applied kinesiology. Her chiropractic treatment supports the entire family, from newborn babies, children and teenagers to pregnant women and the older population. 

The Holistic Approach of Chiropractic Care

Chiropractic care is grounded in the belief that the body has an innate ability to heal itself when given the right conditions. Unlike conventional or mainstream medicine, which often focuses on treating symptoms, chiropractors aim to identify and address the root cause of health issues. This holistic approach considers the interconnectedness of the body's systems, recognising that optimal function is essential for overall well-being. Holistic care that considers the entire individual is part of Hannah's treatment plan. She believes holistic health care is the future of healthcare to prevent rather than treat disease. 

The Power of Chiropractic

The human body is an amazing, intelligent structure but with the modern-day stressors of life, our state of equilibrium os often disrupted. Chiropractic brings the body and nervous system back to balance and allows holistic healing and optimal function between the brain and body. Chiropractic adjustments help to optimise brain function, joint function and muscle tension as well as nurture the nervous system out of 'fight or flight'. 

Tailored Care for Individual Needs

At Luminance Health, we understand that each person is unique, and so are their health concerns. Our chiropractors specialise in providing personalised care that caters to the specific needs of each patient. This tailored approach ensures that the treatment is not only effective but also aligned with the individual's overall health goals. Improve quality of life with Hannah's holistic approach and varied treatment options guaranteed to be unique to you to help in your healing journey. Hannah is an experienced practitioner with a passion for treatment unresolved body symptoms, as she aims to look at the complete picture, not just the symptoms you are presenting with. 

Manual Manipulation or 'cracking'

Manual therapy is a safe and effective chiropractic technique to restore joint movement, correct poor posture, nerve pain and optimise the communication between the brain, spine and rest of the body. The amazing benefits of a chiropractic adjustment aren't just through manual manipulation, as there are many ancillary techniques that chiropractors use to bring balance to the body.

Activator Method

The Activator Method is a chiropractic technique that utilises a handheld device to deliver a gentle, controlled force to specific areas of the spine. This precise method is particularly effective in addressing issues such as headaches, neck pain, and back pain. By targeting the affected areas with accuracy, the Activator Method promotes spinal alignment and enhances the body's natural healing processes.

Sacro-Occipital Technique (SOT)

Balancing the Foundation: SOT focuses on the relationship between the sacrum and the occiput at the base of the skull. This technique aims to restore balance to the pelvic and spinal structures, addressing conditions like TMJ dysfunction, hip pain, and knee pain. By ensuring a stable foundation, SOT contributes to improved overall body function and alleviation of related discomfort.

Applied Kinesiology

Muscle Testing for Comprehensive Evaluation: Applied Kinesiology involves manual muscle testing to assess the functional status of various muscles and identify imbalances in the body. This diagnostic tool helps chiropractors identify the root causes of issues like vertigo and ankle sprains. By understanding the body's unique response to stimuli, chiropractors can tailor treatments to enhance muscle strength and overall function.

Soft Tissue Work

Addressing Pain Beyond the Spine: Chiropractic care extends beyond spinal adjustments, encompassing soft tissue work to address pain and dysfunction in muscles and surrounding structures. This comprehensive approach is beneficial for conditions like neck pain, back pain, and headaches, providing relief by targeting both skeletal and soft tissue components.
