We remain open - Covid-19 update at Active

With the increase in stress and anxiety for many of us in the past twelve months, there has never been a more important time to ensure that your body is functioning at optimal level. Your mental health impacts on your physical health and vice versa. Think of a check-up as an MOT for your mind and body! Chiropractors work on diagnosis, treatment and prevention of mechanical disorders of the musculoskeletal system, and the effects of these disorders on the function of the nervous system and general health. We focus on the spine and the neuro-musculoskeletal system and how conditions affecting these areas can affect your health and performance. We are trained to assess the neuro-musculoskeletal system and identify restrictions, imbalances and dysfunction.
