Chiropractic for Seniors in Port Macquarie
A morning walk, a round of golf or an afternoon in the garden. The things you enjoy don’t lose their value as you get older, but pain and stiffness may make them harder to fit into your day.
Hastings Chiropractic offers individualised care for older adults with musculoskeletal concerns. Dr Neil Hecimovic (Chiropractor) takes time to learn what’s bothering you and which activities you’d like to keep doing.
Care Built Around Your Everyday Life
Perhaps turning your head feels uncomfortable when driving, or getting up from a chair takes more effort than it used to. Your appointment starts with a conversation about these everyday challenges, followed by an assessment of your movement and symptoms.
Dr Neil considers your health history, medicines, previous injuries and bone health before discussing suitable options. You’ll have time to ask questions and talk through the possible benefits, risks and alternatives.
Movement Advice and Exercise Rehabilitation
Depending on your findings, recommendations may include adapted chiropractic techniques, exercise rehabilitation and practical advice for daily activities. Your abilities and preferences help shape the plan.
Home exercises can be tailored to your needs, with instructions available through Physitrack®. Whether your goal involves walking along the coast or getting back to the veggie patch, the focus stays on what matters to you. Progress is reviewed, and recommendations may change as your needs change.
Talking About Balance and Mental Clarity
Feeling unsteady or noticing changes in concentration deserves a conversation with your GP. These concerns can have several causes and may need assessment beyond chiropractic care.
Let Dr Neil know about any balance difficulties during your visit. Where suitable, movement assessment and exercise advice can form part of a broader care plan, with referral to another health professional when needed. We should assess changes in memory or mental clarity medically.
