Chiropractic

Using a safe, gentle technique called an adjustment, Chiropractors work on realigning the spine which causes undue pressure on the nervous system when misaligned. As the nervous system encompasses the brain, spinal cord and nerves, any and all functions of the body may be affected if pressure or a blockage exists. By removing this blockage to your nervous system, your body can begin to restore itself and function at its optimum.

Circuit Gym

Circuit training involves high-low bursts of exercise and combines strength training with aerobic exercise. It aims to keep you working at 70-80% of your maximal heart rate which is the ideal zone for burning fat. 

We use pin-loaded weights (compared to standard hydraulic machines) which aids in building muscle mass. This speeds up your metabolism and burns fat even when you're resting! Circuit training is ideal for everyone including the elderly, unfit or injured persons.
