At Adjusting to Health, we often hear new patients say the same thing:

“This feels different.”

And it should.

We didn’t build this practice to blend into the mainstream medical system. We built it to challenge it. In a world of rushed appointments, symptom-chasing, and prescriptions handed out in five minutes, we chose a different path. Our path is one grounded in clarity, connection, and care that aims to transforms lives.

We believe Chiropractic care should go beyond just pain relief. It should help you understand your body better, feel empowered, and stay healthy for the long term. Whether you found us by searching for a Chiropractor in Bonnyrigg or Doonside, or were referred by a friend, we want you to know this is a place where your health is taken seriously, not just your symptoms alone.

Here’s what makes us different:

1. We don’t guess. We test.

Every patient starts with a full 10-step examination, often including spinal imaging when clinically indicated, posture scans, and neurological testing. These aren’t generic assessments. They’re designed to help us understand how your spine, posture, and nervous system are all working together. More importantly perhaps, also when they’re not.

We use this data to then create a care plan of action that’s tailored to you, not a one-size-fits-all routine. If your spine is misaligned, your body is working harder than it should. That stress can show up in a variety of ways, from headaches and poor sleep to fatigue, back pain, or immune issues.

2. We’re family-focused.

From babies to grandparents, we take care of the entire family. Some of our longest-standing patients first came in with their children, now we care for their grandchildren too because they understand what we're really doing, removing interference to allow for the bodies optimal expression of health. We believe that families under regular Chiropractic care are healthier, safer, and more resilient than the ones that aren't. We’re proud to be able to say we play a significant role in helping them thrive.

Whether it’s your child’s first check-up, your partner’s sleep issues, or your own long-standing back pain, we’re here to support you and your whole family through every season of life.

3. We adjust for performance, not just pain.

Most people come in because something hurts, a stiff neck, aching back, constant headaches, or tension that just won’t ease. But what they soon discover is that the benefits of Chiropractic care aren't just removing pain. It’s about helping the nervous system function at its best so you can move, think, and recover better every single day. Some of the most common side effects of care that our patients report to us at their regular progress reviews are better sleep, more mobility, improved digestion, more energy and overall wellbeing to name a few.

Our patients often report feeling lighter and more focused even after just a few visits. That’s because we’re not treating the symptom. We’re improving the system that runs the body, your nervous system.

4. We empower, not pressure.

You won’t find sales scripts or pressure tactics here. We’re not in the business of “selling” care. We’re in the business of saving lives, helping people take control of their health and providing them with the knowledge to make the right choices. We’ll educate you, adjust you, and give you the tools to make confident decisions for your health. The rest is up to you.

If you’re looking for a Chiropractor who listens to your story, helps you understand your spine and nervous system, and works with you long-term to create change, then you’re in the right place book your first visit today.
