How We Work With You

Your Chiropractic Consultation is Unique to You

We do follow a process here at Catalyst Chiropractic and this means we can provide a thorough and comprehensive assessment of your body and your personal health goals.


The process works because it is patient focussed and everything we gather, discuss, recommend and decide is based on your unique needs and in consultation with you.

How Catalyst Chiropractic works with you, our consulting room

Treating Pain With Care

Ease pain and improve mobility and body function

Being in pain may be a sign of issues concerning your overall body function. At Catalyst Chiropractic we look at the foundations of how you move and how your spine functions in order to improve your overall health and wellness.


The swifter you act to get a correct diagnosis through thorough (including postural) assessment procedures, together with the right recommendations for care, the more likely it is that pain may be eliminated and your chances of it coming back in the future may be minimised.
Do you recognise any of these:
  • Sharp, acute pain from a specific injury or incident
  • Long standing chronic pain that is with you all the time
  • Sporadic pain that flares up at certain times (such as night pain, pain after sitting for long periods or pain with walking)
  • Pain related conditions such as headaches, migraines, pins and needles
Here are some of the conditions we can help with:
  • Jaw Pain
  • Neck Pain
  • Hip Pain
  • Shoulder Pain
  • Spinal Stenosis
  • Pinched Nerve
  • Foot Pain
  • Low Back Pain
  • Headache
  • Osteoarthritis

Family Wellness

Health and wellbeing is something that you can take an active role to maintain in your own life.

At Catalyst Chiropractic we create care programs that may help you identify, achieve and maintain your personal, individual or family health and wellbeing goals.
Chiropractic for pregnant women
The way your body changes during pregnancy can cause lower back pain, stiffness and other issues. We can work with you to assist with mobility, strength and flexibility before, during and after pregnancy so that becoming a mother can be even more enjoyable.
Chiropractic for babies and children
Chiropractic care is a safe and gentle approach that may help babies and children with a range of issues. Please talk to us about how we may be able to assist and whether chiropractic is a suitable approach.
Chiropractic for older people
As we age, it is important to stay active and healthy and address any ongoing pain and stiffness issues. We can work with you to help you maintain a good lifestyle and to age gracefully.

Foot Levelers are back!

Do you experience pain daily? Maybe you have plantar fasciitis or struggle with low back pain? Over-the-counter inserts may not provide the relief you need. Individually designed Foot Levelers custom orthotics with 3-arch support, however, can.

Foot Levelers custom orthotics are individually designed for your feet – helping achieve a balanced foundation and stabilized pelvis. Our custom orthotics are handmade for your unique feet based on 3D scans or casts, and your doctor’s exam.

Only Foot Levelers customized orthotics support all 3 arches of the foot, which make up the plantar vault. Since our orthotics are custom-made by hand from scans or casts of your feet, no two pairs of Foot Levelers custom orthotics are alike! Innovations like 3-Arch Support, and high quality materials and scanning technology, enable a uniqueness to each orthotic – shaped and crafted to your individual feet – resulting a much higher-quality orthotic that also happens to be extremely effective in reducing low back pain and other forms of pain typically related to foot conditions.
