Judy's Story

These are the therapies I have experienced or learnt about.
Chiropractic

Chiropractic stresses the idea that the cause of many disease processes begins with the body's inability to adapt to its environment It looks to address these diseases not by the use of drugs and chemicals, but by locating and adjusting a musculoskeletal area of the body which is functioning improperly. Spinal manipulation is the cure, combined with lifestyle programmes

Being a person who tumbled fell and twisted things I was often at my chiropractor, who has always asked ‘Why’? He checks to see if dietary supplements are necessary. He has always been very interested in my HD, always proactive. He is constantly upgrading his knowledge and delighted to use it.

The New Zealand Chiropractors' Association website simply explains that the cause of much disease begins with the body's inability to adapt to its environment. Chiropractors look after the nervous system and the bones and muscles that support and protect it.

NZ school of Chiropractic is the website with information for students and prospective students if chiropractic in NZ.

Colour Therapy

New Zealand's Brooker Clinic offers colour therapy online. "Colour therapy works by matching the frequency wavelength of a colour to that of a disease, virus or infection. "Colours each have their own transformational and healing characteristics and can be directed towards physical, emotional, mental and spiritual healing," says this site, Not only is colour therapy claimed to relieve physical ailments, it is also said to assist with mental or spiritual problems, even provide a path to romance and wealth.
