How Our Chiro Chiropractic & Musculoskeletal Services Brisbane Can Help

Our experienced chiropractors take a holistic approach to diagnosing and treating peripheral joint conditions. We’ll conduct a thorough examination to identify the specific joint affected, the underlying cause of your pain, and any contributing factors. Your personalized treatment plan may include:

While adjustments aren’t directly on the peripheral joint itself, they can address any misalignments in the spine or other related joints that may be contributing to muscle imbalances or altered biomechanics, which can impact peripheral joint function and healing.

Techniques like massage, myofascial release, and trigger point therapy to address muscle tightness, inflammation, and restrictions surrounding the affected joint.

Targeted exercises to strengthen supporting muscles, improve flexibility, and restore range of motion.

Exercises to improve balance and coordination, which is especially important for lower limb joint injuries.

Assessing your walking pattern to identify biomechanical issues that may be contributing to your pain.

Custom orthotics may be recommended to provide additional support and improve foot and ankle alignment.

Recommendations on activity modification, ergonomics, and other strategies to prevent recurrence.
