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 skull protects the delicate tissues of the brain. The moving bones of the spine (known as vertebrae) protect the intricate communication pathways of the spinal cord and nerve roots.

Emily is nothing less than amazing. Ive been seeing her for 7 years now and she is always able to help with every pain or ache I have- both physically and emotionally. Her treatment is always gentle and she explains what she is doing to help me to understand what is going on in my body and how it impacts what I feel as a result.

I've spent the last 20 years when I had a foot operation (changed my gait) going from sports doctors, physios and other chiros and acupuncture, but Emily has made the biggest difference of all. I feel safer on my feet as she has freed them up significantly. No more sciatic pain from pinched nerves in my lower back and my shoulder feels almost new again. I can't believe I have such significant improvement in my mobility and am now pain free so I sleep well too. Thank you so much Emily it has made life so much more comfortable.

Dr Emily Petherbridge was recommended to me to see if she could help my 6yo daughter who was having behavioural issues at school. My daughter was very bright and generally well behaved but a few times a week she would go from 0-100, for no apparent reason, and end up in the principals office. It had been going on for a couple of years, the school could no longer support her, as she was interfering with the other children’s safety and learning ability, and I was desperate to find a solution.
After the very first appointment with Emily, my daughter went from being sent to the principal’s 3-5

Emily is amazing with my Son. We contacted Emily to find some answers to his persistent cough that could last for weeks. The GP and pediatrician couldn’t give me a solution. He was missing a lot of school each time the cough started. Emily discovered he had an allergy that was causing the cough. After following Emily’s plan we had a happier boy whose cough was less persistent. Thankyou Emily.

Emily is amazing. I started seeing her for my sons who were having neck problems after birth, after I was frustrating with getting no where elsewhere. Emily is treatment is gentle & safe. She was able to identify issues I was having without me even telling her!
I now send all my family & friend to her. Cannot recommend her enough!

I have been seeing Emily for a number of years and she is simply amazing. Solved my gut issues in a few sessions. I was constantly feeling nauseous and she was able to pinpoint the problem and resolve it. She is a fantastic Chiropractor and really has a special gift as a Kineasiologist. Her ability to pick up on your emotions is quite stunning and I always come away feeling better.

I have been receiving treatment by Dr Emily Petherbridge at Little Spines for over 18months. Dr Emily has not Only been thorough and patient with me she has persisted to uncover the root cause of my various issues. Over the years most health professionals have put me in the too hard basket. I feel very grateful to have been guided to see Dr Emily and highly recommend her!

For the last 3 to 4 years, on and off I have been travelling 2 hours each visit to see Emily for treatment for MTHFR gene and digestion with kinesiology. She has been the one who has been able to pin point issues and determine correct supplements and dosages which are going to work for me. I haven't been able to find anyone closer to me who has her knowledge for my condition.
For the last 4 to 5 months she has also been helping me with the release and healing of past memories and events through NLP.
This has brought about improvements in relationships and my marriage, anxiety, self confidence

Emily got me through a very trying period in my life. I walked out of my first session with Emily feeling supported and hopeful. After a handful of sessions and a few months of practicing what Emily taught me, I sent her this (below) message from the other side of the world.
"I want to let you know that I have never felt this good in my life... and it's all because of you. I didn't realise how much negative energy I sent myself every, single, day just because I didn't like what I saw. For 10 whole years I honestly felt like there was no way out. You have absolutely changed my life (I'm not exaggerating
