Your First Visit to North Road Chiropractic in Oakleigh

After you have filled in a comprehensive history form, we perform a complete examination which includes physical, orthopaedic, chiropractic and postural analysis.

Our Oakleigh patients appreciate that we explain everything.

Computerized EMG (ElectroMyoGraphic) study of the spinal support muscles gives us information about the state of the spinal nerves as they relate to the spine its balance and its alignment.

X-rays of the spine (radiological examination) may be taken to determine whether you have pathology or fracture and, if you have any pre-existing structural faults of the spine which may lead to misalignments (vertebral Subluxation complexes) of the spinal bones.

Sam Asks some important questions of interest to Oakleigh residents - Chiropractor Oakleigh Sam Asks...

How could a child benefit from chiropractic?
Regardless of our age, each of us in Oakleigh encounters physical, chemical and emotional stresses that exceed our ability to handle. For newborns, it could be the trauma encountered at birth. For toddlers it could be from learning to walk or ride a bike. Many of the problems we chiropractors see in adults are the result of neglected traumas from childhood.
What's the difference between a "good" drug and a "bad" drug?
As a chiropractor, I see the use of many drugs (legal or illegal) as merely symptom treating. Worse, virtually every drug produces unwanted effects. The effects of chiropractic are largely positive effects. If you're a Oakleigh parent, consider carefully before giving your child a cough medication, cold remedy or pain reliever so this sort of question doesn't arise in the first place.
