Chiropractic is built on the idea that your body is designed to self-heal, self-regulate, and strive for optimal health. The constant communication between your brain and body regulates and restores every cell, tissue, organ, and system in your body. This communication relies on a clear and healthy nervous system, protected by your spine. The spine, being a dynamic structure, is often the site of tension and stress. Chiropractors focus on the spine to alleviate stress, ensuring clear communication between your brain and body, which allows you to heal, adapt, and thrive in a new state of health.

At Coast Family Chiropractic, we’ve helped countless people with a variety of health challenges. Since the nervous system controls and coordinates all body functions, any disruption can manifest in numerous ways: headaches, poor posture, aches and pains, limited motion, low energy, immune issues, poor sleep, mood swings, and sluggish digestion. By addressing spinal dysfunction and stress, we improve nerve system function, leading to better overall health. Contrary to popular belief, you don’t need symptoms to benefit from chiropractic care. Chiropractic is for anyone with a spine, a nervous system, and a desire to reach their full health potential.

Our nervous system is our interface with the world, processing a constant flow of information and responses, many of which we’re not consciously aware of. Over time, our environment and experiences can compromise our health and well-being if we don’t adapt efficiently to various stressors:

• Physical Stress: Birth process, learning to walk, repetitive motions, car accidents, slips, falls, poor posture.
• Emotional Stress: Family conflict, grief, worry, fear, anxiety, work stress.
• Chemical Stress: Alcohol, drugs, medications, food additives, caffeine, dehydration, pollution.

Chiropractors are specialists in assessing and addressing dysfunction in the spine and nervous system. We perform specific adjustments to restore proper function, facilitating a new state of health. Each chiropractor at Coast Family Chiropractic uses a variety of techniques, from manual adjustments to specialised instruments or tables. Each patient is thoroughly evaluated to determine the best technique for their needs. Chiropractic uniquely focuses on optimising nervous system function.

Chiropractic care is for everyone. Whether you're a baby, child, pregnant mum, athlete, or senior, our goal at Coast Family Chiropractic is to address nerve interference and help you achieve optimal health and well-being.
