WHAT IS CHIROPRACTIC CARE?
Chiropractic is a science, philosophy and an art that focuses on the neuromusculoskeletal system and the role that plays in your well-being.
The nervous system which is encased within your spine is the master controller of your body. It controls your senses, organs, movement, thoughts and emotions and ALL functions of the body.
Chiropractic is a drug-free, natural approach that encourages the body to restore optimal function & movement.
Chiropractors use a wide range of techniques with an emphasis on manual spinal adjustments. The goals being;
To improve joint function
Reduce pain and inflammation
Increase movement
Reduce muscle spasm
When moving better people may feel better overall
Chiropractors believe that your health his made up of a balance between your physical, chemical and emotional health. The 3 Ts; Traumas, Toxins and Thoughts are the main detractors from health.
TRAUMA
This can be the obvious things like slips, trips, falls and motor vehicle accidents. But let's not forget the less obvious things that have a big impact like, poor posture and sitting for long periods of time.
TOXINS
Is what you're putting in, or surrounding your body with nourishing or harming you?Your diet, your work and home environment, the air you breathe, the water you drink. All these things can impact your chemical load.
THOUGHTS
Our thoughts change our internal world which can have an outward expression on us physically. Stress alone is linked to many chronic conditions such as; cardiovascular disease, weight gain, depression, anxiety, diabetes and headaches.

Syntropy Chiropractic
At Salt Chiropractic, Dr Andrew Roberts utilises Syntropy Chiropractic, a technique designed to align the body with its natural rhythms and support optimal healing. This modern, evidence-informed approach integrates biomechanics, neurology, and the body's innate intelligence to enhance health and well-being.
Syntropy Chiropractic focuses on understanding and working with the body's natural movement patterns to restore proper alignment and function.

BGI – Energy Based Technique in South Brisbane
At Salt Chiropractic, we incorporate principles from Bio-Geometric Integration (BGI) into our chiropractic care. BGI is an approach that looks at the body as an integrated system, focusing on patterns of tension, balance, and coordination within the spine and nervous system.
Rather than focusing only on areas of pain, BGI considers how different regions of the body interact and influence overall function. By addressing these patterns, care can support improved movement, reduced tension, and better communication between the brain and body.
BGI is typically delivered through gentle contacts and specific adjustments that help the body reorganise patterns of stress within the spine and surrounding tissues. This approach complements more traditional manual chiropractic techniques and can be integrated alongside diversified, drop-piece, and other adjustment methods.
SOT – Low Force Chiropractic in South Brisbane
SOT is a comprehensive, gentle, and innovative technique of chiropractic care. It stands for Sacro Occipital Technique, a method that emphasises natural healing mechanisms. Your sacrum (base of the spine) and occiput (base of the skull) are key players in the body’s circulation of cerebrospinal fluid – a crucial element in physiological function. This therapy aims to optimise this flow, enhancing your health without the need for forceful adjustments.
The beauty of SOT lies in its non-invasive approach. It’s perfect for those who might be apprehensive about traditional chiropractic methods.
