International Chiropractic Pediatric AssociationChiropractic Techniques
I regularly employ a variety of techniques based on clinical need and personal preference:
MT shares: "I am a strong believer in chiropractic procedures and the important role of chiropractors in a healthy body-life... When I moved to Gibsons 6.5 years ago, one of the first things I did was phone around for a chiropractor that used the 'snapper' [Activator instrument] as an alternative to manipulation. Stacey was just down the road and I said I would give her a try. I really appreciate her sincerity and true caring about my well-being. She definitely helps me and my aches and pains. I have decided that seeing a chiropractor on a regular basis is extremely vital to my mental and physical well-being. I like it so much that I've referred some of my friends and all of my family to see Stacey."

DZ shares: "My pregnancy chiropractic experience was incredible... I never thought in a million years I could see a chiropractor while being pregnant. Not only is Dr. Stacey professional and outgoing, she makes you feel comfortable. Dr. Stacey adjusts the table according to your belly size and needs."
I also combine and/or blend aspects of the above techniques and elements of others and may incorporate stretches, exercises, nutritional advice, detoxification, simple breath and energy work depending on your age, preferences, and health condition. I work closely with other practitioners (both in and outside of the Wellness Centre) to help you maximize your results and to achieve your health goals.
I utilize the state-of-the-art technology to assess the health of your nervous system called an Insight Millenium Subluxation Station, also known as a nerve scan.
**Please note that there are over 140 different 'branded' chiropractic techniques and that results will vary from patient to patient.**
