Services
Chiropractic Care
Our chiropractic care focuses on diagnosing and treating musculoskeletal conditions through manual adjustments. We address spinal misalignments that may affect nervous system function, using diversified techniques including activator tools and cranial therapy. Patients receive personalised treatment plans combining adjustments with lifestyle advice to improve posture, reduce pain, and enhance overall health.
Pregnancy Support
Specialised chiropractic care for expectant mothers addresses biomechanical changes during pregnancy. Using Webster Technique and gentle adjustments, we help maintain pelvic balance to support optimal foetal positioning. Treatment includes comfort measures like belly pillows, postural guidance, and exercises to ease discomfort while preparing for labour and postpartum recovery.
Paediatric Chiropractic
Gentle chiropractic treatments for infants and children address developmental concerns and musculoskeletal issues. Our advanced paediatric-certified practitioners use modified techniques to support neurological development, manage feeding difficulties, and improve sleep patterns. Care includes parental education on infant positioning and developmental milestones.
Developmental Neurology
This specialised service addresses neurodevelopmental disorders using the Melillo Method. Through primitive reflex integration, sensory stimulation, and cognitive exercises, we aim to improve neural connectivity and address learning challenges. Treatment combines movement therapy with nutritional support to enhance brain-body communication and developmental progress.
Functional Neurology
Functional neurology assessments identify brain imbalances affecting movement and coordination. Our interventions include vestibular training, photobiomodulation therapy, and custom exercise programs to improve neural plasticity. This service supports patients with chronic conditions by enhancing nervous system communication and overall cognitive function.

Report
For the past few days, I've been experiencing severe pain in my neck and arms. I've also had trouble sleeping well for the last few nights. Yesterday, I went to see Dr. Miriam. She was really patient and spent time focusing on my neck. After the session, all the pain disappeared, and I feel much better now. I highly recommend this chiropractor.

Highly recommend. I was in extreme agony. Miriam was amazing. Her expertise and gentle treatment managed to relieve my issues within 48 hours. I have had experience with many chiropractors in my life, Miriam is by far the leader in her field. The clinic is very clean and has a calming effect. Initial consult is very thorough.
