The adjustment does not ordinarily hurt. In fact in our practice you will see clients -from kids to grandparents- “in bliss” after their adjustment. The adjustment is highly skilled and specific and would only hurt if we are working in an area that is already inflamed.

Our instrument and table-assisted adjusting makes no noise. The manual adjustments are associated with a small sound as the vertebra moves- the noise is a gas releasing into your spinal joint. This can surprise people, and most people feel immediately more relaxed and at ease.

At Duffy Quiropractica we want to get long-term results. Many people feel great after just weeks, however our goal is to have you in brilliant health for the rest of your life. Just like dental braces, changing the shape and function of your spine takes time. The results of this show over a longer time, as your posture improves and you realise greater health. The real measure of success is your quality of life in the long term.

We have affordable plans to help those who may struggle to pay. What is for sure is that getting healthy is much more cost effective than getting sick. Studies constantly show that Chiropractic clients spend less on “emergency care”
