Headaches can be debilitating, and approximately 13 million individuals (64%) experience headaches and migraines, as the Australian Chiropractors Association reports. There are various factors and causes that can contribute to the occurrence of headaches, such as hypertonic muscle, hypomobility of certain joints, jaw issues, blood pressure, mood and other factors.

Neck and shoulder pain can significantly impact daily life, making even simple tasks challenging. It is a common condition that can result from various factors, including poor posture, muscle tension, injury, or underlying medical conditions. Chiropractic care offers a holistic approach to alleviate neck and shoulder pain by addressing the root causes. 

Temporomandibular joint (TMJ) pain, commonly known as jaw pain, can be a source of significant discomfort and disruption in daily life. It may manifest as jaw clicking, popping, stiffness, or pain while chewing, speaking, or opening the mouth. TMJ pain can be caused by various factors, such as jaw misalignment, teeth grinding, stress, or trauma. Chiropractic care offers a non-invasive approach to address TMJ pain by focusing on the alignment and function of the jaw and surrounding muscles. 

Scoliosis is a condition characterized by an abnormal curvature of the spine, typically in a sideways or "S" or "C" shape. It can develop during childhood or adolescence and can vary in severity. Scoliosis may be caused by various factors, including genetics, muscle imbalances, or structural abnormalities. The condition can lead to postural changes, spinal asymmetry, and potential complications. While some individuals may experience mild symptoms, others may require treatment to manage pain, improve posture, and prevent further progression. 

Low back pain is a common condition that can range from mild discomfort to severe, debilitating pain. It affects people of all ages and can be caused by various factors such as muscle strains, ligament sprains, herniated discs, poor posture, or underlying medical conditions. Low back pain can significantly impact daily activities and quality of life. 

Sciatica refers to the pain that radiates along the path of the sciatic nerve, which runs from the lower back through the hips, buttocks, and down each leg. It is typically caused by the compression or irritation of the sciatic nerve, often due to a herniated disc, spinal stenosis, or other spinal conditions. Sciatica can cause sharp, shooting pain, numbness, or tingling sensations in the lower back, buttocks, and legs, which can significantly impact mobility and daily activities. 

These injuries can range from minor sprains and strains to more severe fractures or ligament tears. Sports injuries can affect various parts of the body, including muscles, joints, bones, and tendons. Seeking prompt and appropriate care is crucial to ensure proper healing and recovery. Chiropractic care plays a valuable role in the management of sports-related injuries. 

Poor posture can result from various factors, including prolonged sitting, incorrect ergonomics, muscle imbalances, and lack of postural awareness. Over time, these postural deviations can lead to muscle tension, joint strain, and discomfort. Chiropractic care offers effective solutions for addressing postural issues.
