Elderly Chiropractic Care
Overview of Chiropractic Care for Older Adults

As we age, our bodies go through many changes that can affect mobility, posture, and comfort. At Advantage Chiropractic, we provide gentle and personalised chiropractic care for seniors that focuses on improving movement, reducing stiffness, and supporting a more active and independent lifestyle.
​
Whether you are managing arthritis, recovering from a fall, or simply want to stay flexible and mobile, our care is tailored to your body, comfort level, and health goals.
How Chiropractic Care Supports Healthy Aging
Chiropractic care can help maintain and improve quality of life as we get older. It is designed to support how the spine and nervous system function, allowing the body to move more easily and with less discomfort.
Chiropractic adjustments and soft tissue techniques can:
-
Improve joint mobility and flexibility
-
Relieve back, neck, or hip pain
-
Reduce muscular tightness and inflammation
-
Enhance balance and coordination
-
Support posture and stability
-
Assist with sleep and daily comfort
Our chiropractors use age-appropriate techniques to ensure you feel safe and supported.

Many older adults come to us with:
-
Spinal arthritis and stiffness
-
General back or neck pain
-
Reduced range of motion
-
Shoulder or hip tension

Whether symptoms are new or have been present for years, we focus on restoring function and comfort in a way that works for your stage of life.

Do I Need a Referral?
No referral is required. If your discomfort is related to an injury, we can help determine ACC eligibility and file your claim directly in-clinic. We also coordinate with other health professionals when needed and can refer for imaging or further assessment.
