Chiropractic is a primary healthcare profession that focuses on the examination, diagnosis, treatment and prevention of neuro-musculo-skeletal conditions (nerves, muscles, tendons, joints and ligaments). For example low back pain, disc herniations, neck pain, headaches and migraines, shoulder and elbow pain, knee and ankle pain, pins and needles in the arms or legs are some of the conditions for which you can consult a chiropractor.

Chiropractic is very unique in dealing with musculoskeletal conditions, as it is concerned with finding the underlying causes of a patient’s complaint and treating the cause, not just hiding the symptoms. As well as providing pain relief, chiropractic aims to restore movement to stiff joints whilst strengthening and re-educating muscles and ligaments, therefore creating better stability, flexibility and movement in the body. In this way chiropractic care can help reduce the likelihood of a condition recurring again in the future.

People of all ages and from all walks of life can benefit from chiropractic treatment, from babies and children, through to adulthood and the later years. Dr Panayides also specializes in the treatment of pregnant women.
