What is chiropractic care?
Chiropractic care uses precise, controlled adjustments to restore movement in stiff spinal segments and joints. Dr. M Mahammad Ilias is a certified chiropractor as well as a physiotherapist, so every adjustment is backed by a full clinical assessment and followed by the right exercises to keep the joint moving well.
Adjustments are always tailored to your age, comfort level and condition. We explain what we are doing before we do it, and gentle mobilisation techniques are available if you prefer not to have high-velocity adjustments.

Chiropractic Care FAQs
Is chiropractic adjustment safe?
When performed after a proper assessment by a trained professional, chiropractic adjustment is very safe. We screen every patient first and only adjust when it is appropriate for you.
Does a chiropractic adjustment hurt?
Most people feel a quick release and immediate relief. The "click" you may hear is simply gas being released from the joint. Mild soreness for a day is normal.
How is this different from a regular chiropractor?
Dr. M Mahammad Ilias holds BPT and MPT degrees in addition to his chiropractic certification, so adjustments are combined with physiotherapy, exercise and posture work for results that last.
