What The Research Shows

Common Reasons To Visit

Injury

At Karori Chiropractic we are ACC registered. If you have recently had an injury, you may be eligible to open an ACC claim and pay less for Chiropractic care.

Opening a claim is a relatively simple process and can be done on the same day as your appointment. The Chiropractor must first assess the injury to verify if a claim can be made.

You may already be covered if you previously opened a claim with a different health professional.

back pain

Back pain is the most common reason people visit a Chiropractic clinic. Chiropractors are highly trained in identifying the various causes of spinal pain and knowing how to best manage each case.

At Karori Chiropractic we explain our findings and give advice on what you can do to recover from the condition as quickly as possible.

neck pain

The neck is designed to move, allowing people to enjoy the world around them. However this mobility comes at the sacrifice of stability, making the neck more vulnerable to injury and conditions causing pain and discomfort.

Causes of neck pain can vary and our thorough Chiropractic physical assessment aims to provide insight into the specific cause of your pain.

headaches

Did you know that certain types of headaches and migraines originate in the neck? They are known as cervicogenic headaches and chiropractic treatment can often provide quick relief of symptoms.

We aim to find out what it is in your daily lifestyle that may be triggering headaches and give advice on how best to prevent them in the future.

pelvic pain

If you look at the human skeleton you’ll notice that all of the weight of the upper body rests on just two sacroiliac joints, which then transfers this weight through the pelvic bones into the two hip joints.

With all of this force, sometimes the smallest issue can cause a great deal of pain.

Nerve Irritation

Shooting pain, numbness and/or tingling in the arms or legs can be a result of impingement of a nerve some distance away from the actual site of the symptom.

A variety of structures can cause nerve irritation. Chiropractors are trained to find these causes and offer effective treatment options.

Posture

Poor posture can be a result of an underlying structural issue or due to repetitive lifestyle habits.

At Karori Chiropractic we use posture analysis techniques and patient history to help understand how your body is positioned and give stretching and exercise advice personalised to each individual’s specific anomalies.

Thumbs up

You don’t have to be in pain to see us either!

Chiropractic may help relieve muscle tension and is often used by professional athletes when they’re seeking a competitive edge. New research suggests there are also a variety of other benefits to chiropractic care.

Our Wellington Chiropractor

Dr. Terina Hingston

B Chiro – NZ College of Chiropractic

Dr. Terina Hingston, hailing from Kotorua, is a skilled Chiropractor trained at the New Zealand College of Chiropractic. Terina was introduced to Chiropractic through her upbringing, which emphasized natural medicine.

Terina chose to become a Chiropractor because it’s a natural and effective healthcare approach that accommodates individuals of all ages, from babies to the elderly. Additionally, it’s not solely focused on alleviating pain; Chiropractors encounter a diverse range of people seeking care for various reasons.

Dr. Terina is particularly passionate about holistic medicine, with a specific focus on Rongoa Maori (traditional plant medicine) and Mirimiri (Maori massage). Additionally, she has a strong interest in tonal techniques within Chiropractic, particularly Sacro Occipital Technique (SOT).

During her time off, Terina enjoys catching up with family and friends, exploring different restaurants, and engaging in the process of harvesting and crafting Rongoa Māori (traditional plant medicine).

Dr. Terina looks forward to meeting you in practice!
