Relieve Back Pain Naturally

RiverSong is a boutique chiropractic studio focusing on natural spinal healthcare.

Located at 7 Walpole Street, Ellerslie, we’re just off Main Highway, about midway between Ellerslie Race Course and the Millennium Business Center.

Our chiropractor and wellbeing practitioner, Dr Sally Bonynge, is known for her knowledge of bio-mechanics, postural reflexes and neuromuscular balancing. If you’ve ever woken up with a sore neck, felt tension between your shoulders, or suffer from low back pain, Dr Sally can identify the cause and explain why.

She can also spot the difference between postural stress and actual tissue damage. So, if it turns out you are suffering from a disc injury or nerve irritation, Dr Sally can teach you how to manage it properly and allow your body to heal naturally.

If you need more than RiverSong Studio offers Dr Sally will help you to find the right option. If we can’t answer a question Dr Sally will go ‘science-ninja’ to find an answer for you.

Chiropractic Done Differently ~ Waking Up The Brain

Chronic Pain Hurts Your Brain

Chronic back pain isn’t just uncomfortable, it literally changes the way your brain works.

Long-lasting pain disrupts communication between brain cells; turning off systems that normally regulate painful sensations and causing physical and chemical changes in your brain that negatively impact mood, sleep, memory, DNA structure and immune system function.

Sensory Regulation

Did you know chiropractic adjustments are actually a form of sensory regulation?

By providing a unique form of tactile stimulation, chiropractic adjustments have a powerful influence on kinaesthetic awareness – the sensation that informs you of where your body and limbs are and what it feels like to move. Studies have shown that enhanced sensory regulation, with time and mental focus, can support normal brain function.

This is why RiverSong Studio does chiropractic a little bit differently. Our unique approach goes beyond pain relief by ‘waking up the brain’ with controlled sensory stimulation and customised care plans that focus on what you need for optimal brain function.

Best of all, we’re here to make it easy for you.

Simple, Smart and effective

We provide the novel stimulation your brain needs to:

• Overcome ‘learned non-use’ that leads to poor posture and chronic physical stress.

• Limit ‘sensory overload’ produced by unregulated visual, auditory and tactile sensations and the tell-tale signs of brain stress, such as headaches, a ‘foggy’ brain, eye-strain, aversion to bright lights/sounds, and (possibly) tinnitus.

• Inhibit ‘wind-up pain’, which happens when the occasional ‘twinge’ become more painful and occurs more often due to hyper-sensitisation of receptors in the pain system.

Fun and engaging

We will teach you to:

• Build ‘brain maps’ to enhance control by enabling the smallest possible sensory distinctions between movements.

• Stop ‘fighting gravity’ by experiencing your body in the way your brain learned to use it.

• Achieve a state of spinal ‘wellbeing’ - the lifelong freedom to inhabit your body with ease.
