What do people love about chiropractic?

It’s not always about the adjustment.

Across chiropractic care, people commonly describe the benefits as:

“I can move more freely.”

“I’m not as stiff.”

“I can finally do the things I enjoy again.”

“My headaches aren’t controlling my day.”

“I feel like my body is moving better.”

“I understand what’s actually going on with my body.”

And perhaps one of the biggest things people value:

Someone actually listened.

Chiropractic care can be about much more than treating a sore back. It’s about understanding how your body is moving, identifying areas that may be contributing to pain or restricted movement, and helping you move and function better.

At Barefoot Health Co, we take the time to listen, take a thorough history and assess how your body is functioning before we recommend a treatment approach.

So… what does a chiropractor actually do?

If you’ve never been to a chiropractor, you might be wondering what actually happens when you walk through the door.

It’s definitly not just about “cracking” your back.

We look at how your body is moving and functioning — your spine, joints, muscles and movement patterns — to understand what may be contributing to your pain, stiffness or restricted movement.

Depending on what you need, we may use:

• Hands-on adjustments
• Soft tissue techniques
• Mobility and movement work
• Exercise and rehabilitation
• Posture and movement assessment
• Practical advice to help you move better

And most importantly, we listen.

Your body, your history and your goals matter.

Or, if you’re ready to find out what’s going on with your body, book a $59 assessment and sit down with one of our chiropractors for a proper consultation.

☀️ VITAMIN D: ARE YOU GETTING ENOUGH?

Vitamin D is often called the “sunshine vitamin” — but despite living in a sunny country like Australia, vitamin D deficiency is surprisingly common.

Why?

✔️ More time spent indoors
✔️ Working inside all day
✔️ Sunscreen and sun-protection practices
✔️ Limited sun exposure during winter
✔️ Darker skin pigmentation
✔️ Older age
✔️ Higher body weight
✔️ Certain medical conditions and medications

Vitamin D plays an important role in calcium and bone metabolism, muscle function and immune regulation. Low vitamin D levels have also been associated with a range of health conditions.

There is also an established relationship between vitamin D status and seasonal affective disorder (SAD), although the relationship is complex and vitamin D supplementation is not a proven standalone treatment for depression or SAD.

The good news? A simple blood test can help determine whether your vitamin D levels are adequate.

At Barefoot Health Co, we offer prescribed intramuscular Vitamin D boosters for people who are clinically appropriate for treatment.

If you’re wondering whether your Vitamin D levels could be contributing to how you’re feeling, talk to your healthcare professional or get in touch with us.

💬 DM us for more information.

Disclaimer: Vitamin D injections are prescription medicines and are only provided following appropriate clinical assessment and prescribing. This post is for general information only and is not intended to diagnose, treat or prevent any medical condition. Individual suitability, dosage and treatment frequency will be determined by a qualified healthcare professional.

A very special visit to The PANS Clinic in London and an opportunity to meet with Dr Tim Ubhi, who has been at the forefront of caring for children affected by PANDAS.

PANDAS — Paediatric Autoimmune Neuropsychiatric Disorders Associated with Streptococcal infections — is a debilitating condition in which an immune response can affect the brain, leading to sudden and often dramatic changes in a child’s neurological and psychiatric presentation.

Sadly, Australia remains behind in recognising and managing this complex condition. For families, the consequences can be devastating, particularly when symptoms are misunderstood or attributed solely to a primary psychiatric disorder.

Meeting with Dr Tim was an honour and an incredibly valuable opportunity to learn more about the clinical presentation, proposed mechanisms and challenges faced by these children and their families.

One area that particularly interests us at Barefoot Health Co is neuroinflammation. Where an autoimmune process is associated with inflammation affecting the nervous system, we are exploring whether cold laser photobiomodulation may have a future role as an adjunctive therapy to support children within this cohort.

Importantly, this is an area that requires proper clinical investigation. Photobiomodulation is not a treatment for PANDAS, and we are not suggesting that it replaces appropriate medical assessment or evidence-based treatment. Rather, we are interested in understanding whether there may be a safe, clinically appropriate role for this technology as part of a broader multidisciplinary approach.

There is still so much to learn.

Our goal at Barefoot Health Co is to remain curious, evidence-informed and willing to look beyond conventional boundaries when caring for complex patients — while always putting safety and appropriate medical care first.

Thank you to Dr Tim and The PANDAS Clinic for sharing your knowledge and for the work you continue to do for children and families navigating this incredibly challenging condition.

We hope this visit is the beginning of further conversations, collaboration and research here in Australia.

Ever wondered why Gonstead chiropractic looks so precise?

Dr Emma uses the Gonstead approach because it’s focused on identifying the exact spinal segment that needs attention—rather than making broad or unnecessary adjustments. Every assessment is tailored to you, with the goal of restoring movement, reducing irritation, and helping your body function at its best.

Many patients are surprised by just how gentle a specific adjustment can be. When the right area is adjusted with precision, it doesn’t have to be forceful to be effective.

Whether you’re struggling with back pain, neck pain, headaches, or stiffness, a thorough assessment is the first step to understanding what’s causing your symptoms.

Ready to move more freely and feel better?
