How Brett adjusts
Brett uses several adjusting techniques and chooses between them based on what he finds in your assessment, your age and what you are comfortable with.
Some adjustments are done by hand. Others use a small hand-held instrument that delivers a measured force to one joint. Some use a drop piece built into the table.
None of them should hurt. If something is uncomfortable, or you would prefer not to receive a specific technique, please let us know at reception, on your patient intake file or in your appointment with Brett and wet will change the approach.
If you have seen a chiropractor before and prefer a particular technique, tell reception when you book.
Call (02) 9523 9940 or book online.
