Real People. Real Pain. Real Relief.

At Southern Chiropractic, care is personal, not cookie-cutter. We help Christchurch locals get out of pain and back into living... Without the pills, the guesswork, or the runaround.

From new mums with sleepless nights, to tradies wrecked after long days, to kids and teens struggling with posture, to desk warriors locked up at their computers—if pain’s holding you back, you’re in the right place.

👇 Let’s break it down…

Who We Help

Pregnancy & Postpartum Relief

Carrying a baby changes everything—your posture, your balance, your joints, even your sleep. What used to feel easy suddenly feels heavy.

And after birth? It doesn’t stop. Lifting, feeding, bending… your body’s working overtime while you’re running on empty.

That’s where gentle chiropractic care can help. We focus on easing the strain and supporting your body’s natural recovery.

Here’s how we help mums through pregnancy & beyond:

  • Relieve back and pelvic pain so you can actually rest

  • Improve joint mobility for an easier birth process

  • Reduce pressure so you breathe easier and move freer

  • Restore strength after birth so you can lift, feed, and carry without constant pain

Because you don’t have to “just live with it.” Motherhood is hard enough - your body shouldn’t be fighting you, too.

So Why Chiropractic?

Because it made sense.


I used to be a gym junkie - completely obsessed with health and performance.


Then I met a chiropractor who explained how spinal alignment affects everything - your nerves, your sleep, your energy, your ability to heal.

It clicked. I studied. I trained. And I never looked back.

What do I love most about this work?

The people.

 

The 67-year-old who thought her mobility days were over.

The guy who says, “Mate, I just wanna get through the week without popping pills.”

Every body is different. But everyone wants to feel whole again.
And that’s what we do here - we help get you back to feeling like you.

When I’m off the table?

I’m usually out living my best life. Either…

  • Tramping Arthur’s Pass or fossicking for gold in West Coast,

  • Trying to master Pink Floyd bass riffs and acoustic guitar,

  • Attempting rock ballads on the keyboard,

  • Hunting National park pests such as deer and thar 

  • Or simply enjoying time with my family… Usually just catching up on shows.
     

I’m 58, a local, and I still believe a good adjustment, a walk in the mountains, and a great song can fix more than we think.

“I don’t rush. I don’t pressure… I treat people how I’d want my own family treated. That’s my rule. That’s how we do it at Southern Chiropractic.”
