Back Into Balance Family Chiropractic is a family clinic at 154 Leinster Road in Merivale, Christchurch, where infants, children and adults are all welcome. It is run by Dr Jonathan and Brooke Roughan, who are Macquarie University graduates and have trained for five years in treating the arms and legs as well as the spine.
The clinic treats spinal problems and joint problems in the shoulders, elbows, wrists, hips, knees, ankles and feet. It looks for the root cause of a musculoskeletal problem rather than only the symptom, and it talks about neck pain, headaches, posture, whiplash and muscle strain. The clinic is ACC accredited for both spinal and extremity injuries. It also uses Applied Kinesiology, which draws on chiropractic, nutrition and other health disciplines.
Appointments can be booked online or by using the contact form on the website. Open Locally counts one other chiropractor within a kilometre, Riccarton and Merivale Chiropractic, about 1.0 km away.
