What Is Chiropractic?

What is Chiropractic? Understanding the Role of Neurological Adjustments

“Chiropractic” is a philosophy, science, and art of things natural — a system of adjusting the segments of the spinal column.

Life Balance Health Centre believes that the nervous system governs the function of the body. A well-functioning nervous system means less pain in joints and muscles.

Our chiropractors use safe, gentle neurological corrections to help restore proper function.

Located in Padbury, WA, LBHC recognises that every person is different — which is why we offer a variety of personalised approaches to achieving a healthy spine and body.

Chiropractic and the Life Balance Health Centre – Padbury

The team of chiropractors at Life Balance Health Centre in Padbury use neurological techniques to assess and treat your body as a whole.

Our clinic is a dynamic, progressive, and friendly holistic health care centre, committed to helping the community enjoy better health through chiropractic, kinesiology, and clinical Pilates.

Holistic Health Care and Chiropractic in Padbury

LBHC Padbury is a distinctive and successful holistic health care centre focused on treating the body as a whole and identifying the root causes of discomfort and dysfunction.

Our chiropractors are specifically trained in the nervous system. We assess and treat the entire body to uncover and address the true source of your pain — not just the symptoms.

For example, long-term back or neck pain can cause uneven loading through the legs, which may require adjustment of the foot and/or knee. We commonly use impulse adjusting (a gentle technique) rather than manual spinal “cracking.”

Many new patients feel immediate relief knowing this gentler approach is available. Those who have seen chiropractors previously in WA often prefer this method — and we always listen to your preferences.

At Life Balance Health Centre, our goal is to find and treat the underlying cause of your complaint, and provide effective treatment for long-term relief.

We specialise in assessing and correcting dysfunctions of the nervous system to help improve your movement, function, and overall wellbeing.

At Life Balance Health Centre in Padbury, our chiropractors use gentle, low-force techniques to help realign the spine, improve mobility, relieve pain, and support your body’s natural healing ability.
We focus on restoring brain-body communication through neurological and chiropractic care, treating the whole person — not just the symptoms.

We’ve cared for babies from 36 weeks to centenarians who’ve received letters from the Queen, supporting people of all ages and stages of life — from babies to grandparents, tradies, professionals, business owners, families, weekend warriors, and professional sportsmen.

Chiropractic care at LBHC is designed to support your entire well-being.
Our clients often experience relief from back and neck pain, headaches, sciatica, and postural issues.
But the benefits go beyond pain relief — improved spinal alignment enhances neurological communication, boosts energy levels, supports better sleep, and promotes overall health.
Because we use gentle, neurological, orthopaedic, and chiropractic techniques, care is suitable for everyone — from babies to grandparents, tradies, professionals, business owners, families, weekend warriors, and professional sportsmen.

We may refer you for X-rays or other imaging (like CT or MRI scans) when clinically necessary to get a full picture of your spinal and neurological health.
At LBHC, we use imaging responsibly — typically for adults with a history of trauma, chronic issues, or structural concerns.
Children rarely need imaging, thanks to our gentle, paediatric-based approach.
Safety, precision, and personalised care are always our priorities.

Poor posture is commonly linked to spinal imbalances and modern habits like extended sitting or screen use.
At LBHC, we use specific, neurological and orthopaedic assessments combined with gentle chiropractic adjustments to realign the spine and retrain postural patterns.
We also provide simple home exercises to help you maintain upright, healthy posture long-term.
With consistent care, clients often notice less tension, improved appearance, and greater ease in daily movement.

Your first visit to LBHC is all about understanding your health holistically.
We’ll begin with a thorough neurological, orthopaedic, and chiropractic assessment to determine how best to support you.
For adults, this may include referrals for X-rays or imaging if needed.
We aim to create a calm, informative experience — and depending on your case, care may begin on the first or second visit.
You should allow about 40 minutes for this appointment.

The CKP™ Method — combining Chiropractic, Kinesiology, and Pilates — addresses the whole body, not just the symptoms.
It’s particularly effective for complex or chronic conditions where multiple systems are involved, including:

  • TMJ (Jaw Dysfunction) – balancing the jaw, neck, and cranial system to relieve pressure, tension, and bite misalignment.
  • Scoliosis – improving posture, symmetry, and muscle tone while reducing spinal tension and discomfort.
  • Orthotics and Foot Alignment – assessing how foot structure affects balance, knees, hips, and spinal posture.
  • Headaches and Migraines – reducing nerve irritation and restoring neurological balance.
  • Pelvic or Core Weakness – restoring strength and function through targeted Pilates rehabilitation.

Every CKP™ program is tailored to your body’s structure and function.

We Align your body, Activate your muscles, and help you Adapt with stability and strength work inspired by Clinical Pilates.
