Our work jump-starts your body’s natural healing process through natural methods like the Diversified, Drop Piece Table, and Sacro-Occipital chiropractic techniques.

We also offer more technological options like Gonstead and Activator (more on these later in this article!). So now you know where we operate and have an overview of the techniques we offer, who do we have to offer them?

Meet Our Team

What We Offer For Chiropractic Patients

As mentioned above, we have a selection of manual and machine-assisted techniques for chiropractic healthcare. We know every patient’s needs differ, and we strive to accommodate them all.
Here’s more on each:

Gonstead

The Gonstead approach is known in the industry as being the “gold standard” for chiropractic care. This is because it uses an advanced heat-sensing instrument to spot unique patterns. These patterns are disturbances and come to light by measuring temperature variations. Each problem area gets identified by the heat sensor and enables your chiropractor to make precise adjustments to those areas to alleviate your symptoms.

Activator

The Activator method also uses a small tool linked to a computer. The computer assesses you for alignment issues and instructs the tool to provide a series of ‘taps’ to pop your bones gently back into position. If you’ve never received chiropractic care before or belong to an older age group this is usually the best approach for your initial treatment plan.

Drop Piece Table

The Drop Piece Table is a mechanical table housed in the Wholistic Health Centre at both our Kareela and Wolli Creek clinics. It features specially made ‘drop pieces’ which move when your body gets adjusted by our chiropractor. It’s a smooth and gentle process because the movement of the pieces requires limited force. This makes it a suitable alternative option compared to the Activator method.

Diversified

In the Diversified technique your chiropractor will manually feel the joints in your spine and adjust them as you bend and turn. In this approach, you might hear a ‘popping’ sound but this is nothing to be alarmed about. It’s just the shifting of fluid or gas in your joints.

Sacro-Occipital Technique

If you’re dealing with trauma to the head or the pelvis, then this is the right technique for you. It involves the use of wedge-shaped ‘blocks’ which your chiropractor will use for spine correction. It also works to restore nervous system imbalances.

Why Choose the Wholistic Health Centre?

We’ve got a fantastic and enthusiastic team experienced in all the industry-standard chiropractic techniques. Still, this doesn’t answer why you should come to us and not other healthcare clinics that claim to offer the same. The simple answer is we’re established in the area and even have a second clinic in Wolli Creek. If we weren’t trusted by so many patients, we wouldn’t be able to run two clinics for so long!

We also treat a comprehensive range of health conditions, including some of the most common – including:

Injury recovery

Joint pain

Headaches

Neck pain

Back pain

And plenty more depending on the chiropractor that you arrange to see when you get in touch with us!

How to Arrange an Appointment

Now that you’ve heard more about why to work with us let’s look at coming to see us.

First, you can give us a call or pop into the clinic in Kareela, Sutherland Shire. Our catchment area covers Sutherland, Sylvania, Kirrawee, Como, Jannali, and Miranda.

If you live in any of these locations we should be within easy driving distance. If it’s more convenient, you can enquire over the phone about available slots in the weeks to come.

We recommend getting in touch for a chat first so that we can agree on which chiropractor is best for you to meet with.

If you have any pre-appointment questions we can take care of those at any time.

Our phone number is (02) 9599 6554, and you can also fill out a form on the website to email us if that works best.

We look forward to welcoming you to the Kareela clinic of the Wholistic Health Centre in Sutherland Shire!
