At Lighthouse Chiropractic, we believe that genuine healing begins from within, and that chiropractic care plays a key role in supporting the body’s natural ability to heal itself. Our clinic provides gentle, effective care tailored to the unique needs of individuals at every stage of life—from infants to seniors.
Our approach places a special emphasis on paediatric chiropractic care, recognising that early
intervention can support proper growth and development in infants and children. For expectant
mothers, chiropractic adjustments can help manage discomfort, improve pelvic alignment, and
promote a smoother birthing process.
We take a holistic view of health, addressing not just physical symptoms but also the emotional
and developmental factors that contribute to overall well-being. Chiropractic care can have
a profound impact on the nervous system, which controls every function in the body. By restoring
proper spinal alignment, we help optimise nerve flow, improve posture, enhance mobility, and support the body’s ability to adapt to stress.
At Lighthouse Chiropractic, we devote extra time to our patients, offering personalised care plans along with educational support to empower individuals and families. Our goal is to help patients achieve long-term health and wellness by supporting the body’s natural balance and vitality.

WELL BALANCED CHILD
Evidence-based approach that is grounded in the principles of developmental functional neurology. Our focus is on specific stages of brain development and we use a variety of techniques to functionally measure and examine the brain as it goes through these stages. With this approach, we strive to identify when, where and why brain development is altered in its functional development. This has allowed us to better understand and treat a variety of neurobehavioral conditions.
PREGNANCY AND MOTHERS
Chiropractic is highly beneficial during pregnancy. Low back pain and discomfort are very common and might be due to expected physiological changes, hormonal changes and the increase in body mass leading to altered compliance and increased mechanical stress on the spine. The enlarging gravid uterus, accompanying compensatory lumbar lordosis and shift of the centre of gravity may increase strain on bones, muscles and ligaments of lumbar region. We are trained in Webster technique which is a specific chiropractic sacral analysis and gentle adjustment often used in pregnancy. Chiropractic care during pregnancy may also help your baby get into the best possible position
for delivery.
SYMPATHETIC DOMINANCE
VAGUS NERVE DYSFUNCTION
The autonomic nervous system is divided into two parts: the sympathetic and parasympathetic (Vagus Nerve) systems. The parasympathetic side is commonly referred to as the "feed and breed" or "rest and digest" mode, while the sympathetic side is activated during "flight or fight" situations. When we are in a state of Sympathetic Dominance, various symptoms may arise, such as sensitivity to light and sound, cravings for sugar or salt, digestive issues, headaches, fatigue, and more. To enhance Vagus Nerve function, we provide guidance, assessments, and easy-to-follow tips on how to restore balance to your autonomic nervous system.
ADULT PATIENTS
Chiropractic care for adults is an effective way to manage and prevent musculoskeletal issues. We specialize in diagnosing and treating conditions related to the spine, muscles, and nervous system through spinal adjustments and other techniques. These adjustments help alleviate pain, improve spinal alignment, and enhance joint mobility, making chiropractic care beneficial for chronic conditions like lower back pain, sciatica, and headaches.
In addition to treatment, we focus on preventive care, offering regular check-ups to address potential issues early. We also provide guidance on posture, ergonomics, and lifestyle changes to support overall health and well-being. Our care often includes collaboration with other healthcare providers for a comprehensive approach.
