We are a chiropractic practice in Victoria made up of 5 doctors of chiropractic with varied approaches and interests in the treatment and prevention of neuromusculoskeletal conditions related to the spine and body. Our purpose is to correct your spinal problems, relieve your obvious symptoms of pain and discomfort and their negative effects on health, but more importantly, to optimize your spine's performance in daily life. This addresses key components to managing better health and greater enjoyment out of life.
Chiropractic is a highly effective approach to the mechanical and structural components of spinal pain management, rehabilitation, health, and overall body wellness. We seek to provide only the best care for our patients in efforts to make your visit safe, effective and a valued learning experience for both the mind and body.
Here at Broadmead BetterBack, we believe in a team approach to your health care where we will work together with your medical doctor and other health specialists to ensure that you receive the best comprehensive care possible.
ANNOUNCEMENTS, NEWS, and other EVENTS:
Rebuilding Sidney Crosby's Brain
The decision to pursue chiropractic rather than medical school was a “very calculated coin toss,” says [Ted] Carrick, because, as a lifelong martial artist (he still does karate), it seemed more in line with his preference for natural means of healing and well-being. ...
"Carrick had a very prominent role in Sidney’s current recovery status,” Brisson, Crosby’s agent, told Maclean’s. “He progressed extremely well under Carrick.” Just 10 days after the press conference, Crosby joined his teammates on the ice for the first day of training camp. Three-and-a-half weeks after that, Crosby was cleared for contact—the final step before returning to play. Now, after nearly a year of nagging symptoms that have included fogginess, light-headedness and nausea so paralyzing Crosby couldn’t drive or watch TV, and after a slew of setbacks each time he pushed too hard while exercising or skating, the greatest hockey player of this generation is verging on a comeback—perhaps because of a relatively unknown therapy he received at a relatively unknown university from a relatively unknown man who isn’t even a medical doctor.
Spinal Manipulation, Home Exercise May Ease Neck Pain
... and that: Medication appeared to be the least effective treatment for neck pain.
"For me, as an ER doctor, this study offers an interesting perspective," said Dr. Robert Glatter, an attending physician in emergency medicine at Lenox Hill Hospital in New York City. "It's a small study, but it found that home exercises and spinal manipulation were effective. So, should we be referring to physical therapists, osteopaths or chiropractors from the ER?"
- In our opinion... the answer to that question is "Definitely, YES!"
