Chiropractic is based upon the understanding that good health depends, in part, upon a normally functioning nervous system. Chiropractic works by helping to restore your own inborn ability to be healthy. When under the proper control of your nervous system, all the cells, tissue, and organs of your body are designed to function well and resist disease and ill health.
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.

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.Chiropractors use a range of hands-on techniques, which are safe and often gentle, which aim to help free the joints in the spine that are not moving properly.
Chiropractic is suitable for all ages and stages of life. Chiropractors use a variety of techniques designed to improve the function of a range of joints, helping to relieve pain and muscle spasm. Care is tailored to your specific needs, and your chiropractor will use the techniques best suited to you and your symptoms.

I was in and out in 10 minutes. No consult, hardly any explanation, no follow up for stretches. He had so many people booked for the same time frame going room to room. He just got me to lie down, put a heat lamp on me, walked out to do another patient, came in, and cracked me 4 times and told me to come back next week? For what. I get the same results when I crack my own back. Save your money and go elsewhere.

Michael has been treating my chronic back and neck pain for the past 6 months and I have never had this level of relief prior to seeing him. Would definitely recommend.

Best chiropractor around! Thorough, kind, gentle and caring.
Michael works differently from other chiropractors- he massages you to start with, heats you up with a heat lamp for a while then comes back and does the regular chiropractor moves. I go to get results and Michael gave them to me. I improve every time I go - that's why I keep going back!!

First of all the place needs a lil revamp. Carpets are yuck. there was no hygiene practises of putting paper on the chiropractic chair or even swapping towels just one patient straight after the other no wipe or clean down. During our 2 appointments he consistently kept walking out and leaving the room for no reason. im assuming it was to deal with another client at the same time. he had me paying $95 for just under 5 minutes of actual chiropractic service. on my second visit days after i had immense pain and my back was so sore it left me almost feeling paralysed. i was in tears and taking pain

Always happy here, doesn’t matter if I’m there for my back my knee or my shoulder, I always walk out feeling much better, I tried other places but when I found Michael I walked out instantly feeling better. Been going there on and off for at least 15 years. Definitely the best in Penrith, and worth travelling to even if you’re not in the area!!!
