How does the Chiropractor work?
Chiropractic CareChiropractic places an emphasis on nutrition and exercise, wellness and healthy lifestyle modifications. Chiropractic is a health care discipline based on the scientific premise that the body is a self-regulating, self-healing organism. These important functions are controlled by the brain, spinal cord, and all the nerves of the body. “Chiropractic” comes from the Greek word Chiropraktikos, meaning “done by hand.”
The practice of chiropractic focuses on the relationship between structure (primarily the spine, and pelvis) and function (as coordinated by the nervous system) and how that relationship affects the preservation and restoration of health. |
What to expect
You should feel a difference after your first visit. In order to help you best, we need to take some time to assess you properly.
We will sit with you and listen to your concerns, then we test you thoroughly (but quickly) using the latest evidence based techniques.
When you're ready to be adjusted by a qualified chiropractor focused on natural and effective pain relief we will talk you through the best plan for you. Will will not send you away without doing something to help from day 1.
Treatment may require ice or heat to be applied, massage to the area to help loosen the tension, a chiropractic adjustment, or possibly ultrasound or magna pulse therapy, all of which is done on the premisses at no extra cost to you -- whatever it takes to start the healing process.
We’ve combined traditional, proven methods, with current innovative techniques to help you best. The whole process takes a little longer than most practitioners (about 30 mins usually), but because of our commitment to our patients we spend a bit more time for fast results.

Your first visit could be your last
Don’t get worried. We mean that in a good way. We want you to be healed as quickly as possible. We don’t try to sell treatment plans, or binding contacts that get you coming back again and again with very little results. We simple don’t work that way. It’s a matter of integrity. Our first priority is fixing your problem and giving you the knowledge you need for a full and lasting recovery.
It could be a pain in the neck, shoulders, lower back, hip, legs, knees, ankle, or a number of other places. It could be muscle, tendon, ligament or bone damage. The reasons for body aches and pains are varied and endless. Whatever the reason is, it wont be fixed by popping a few Panadol. That will only mask the problem, if you're lucky.
Whatever the problem is, we’ll find out. We want to help. We have a passion for helping people live happier, healthier lives. But it’s not just good intentions that gives Malcolm Hampson the reputation of a gifted healer. After 30 years of experience (almost 20 of those on the Gold Coast) Malcolm continues to research the latest in ‘body mechanics’ to ensure that our patients are truly healed from the internal imbalance manifested as pain.
Sometimes the solution is simple, requiring a minor adjustment and some good advice. Sometimes a few visits may be necessary to correct the imbalance.
