What is Chiropractic Care?
Chiropractic is a primary healthcare system focused on diagnosing, treating, and managing joint misalignments, particularly those of the spinal column, that may affect the nerves, muscles, and overall function of the body.
Using a hands-on approach, chiropractic care gently realigns the joints, helping to reduce pain, restore mobility, and improve how your body moves and feels. While most people associate it with back pain, chiropractic care can offer support for a range of conditions, postural problems, and injuries.
With over 10 years of experience specialising in ABC™, the Posture & Wellness team is here to support your journey toward improved posture and long-term well-being. We take a whole-body approach and provide you with the tools, knowledge, and support to move toward your goals. Nothing brings us greater joy than seeing you thrive!

What is Advanced Biostructural Correction(ABC™)?
Advanced Biostructural Correction™ (ABC™) is a holistic approach to structural healthcare that corrects postural alignment, restores structural function, and supports overall health. It recognises that the body is only a partially self-correcting system.
Through everyday wear and tear, your bones may become stuck forward in a position the body cannot self-correct, largely because there are no muscles to pull them back. When this happens, the body compensates and twists up, placing unnecessary stress and tension on your muscles, joints, and nerves. In turn, this may lead to various types of pain and dysfunction.
ABC™ works by correcting only the bones that have shifted forward and that the body can’t self-correct on its own. As a result, the body settles back into alignment, posture improves, and function is restored.

What is Endonasal Cranial Correction (ECC™)?
Endonasal Cranial Correction™ (ECC™) is a gentle chiropractic adjustment that works on the cranial bones. It’s used as part of a comprehensive, whole-body ABC™ protocol after a thorough assessment, and we only use it when needed.
ECC™ is performed with you lying down; we use a small, hand-held instrument to apply gentle pressure through the nasal passages, aiming to reach the sphenoid bone at the centre of the skull. The goal is to correct any restrictions or misalignments in cranial movement. The sensation can feel a little unusual, with many people comparing it to water up the nose, but the overall correction is quick and often worthwhile.
How We Can Help You
At Posture and Wellness, we exclusively employ ABC™ which is a highly effective health care treatment for pain relief, structural correction, and overall wellness. By correcting the body’s structure we get to the root cause of the problem. This treatment is not a “quick fix” but we consistently help patients overcome their pain and long-term health conditions by identifying and correcting the underlying causes.
The effects of ABC are often visible and felt immediately. We also take digital postural photos to tack results and record the body’s changes.
In most cases, we relieve or alleviate pain and symptoms, heal old structural injuries which might still be affecting you and optimise your body’s overall function.
It allows the body to heal and get well and enables you to achieve your personal health goals.
So what are some of the things that can cause the bones to get pushed forward?
Anything from major accidents or injuries such as car accidents, trips and falls to the day-to-day poor postural habits such as prolonged sitting at poor desk setups, heavy bags, and unsuitable footwear causes our bodies to compensated after pushing us forward.
