Dr Juliana Ellis
Chiropractic Care
My Philosophy:
I came into chiropractic later in life after experiencing the positive benefits to the health of myself and my family. The reward for me is seeing the difference I am able to make to patients lives and general wellbeing.
You know your body better than anyone. As a chiropractor I work with your body as a whole to help maximise your potential. I believe the best results are attained when we work together to help you find ways to cope with the daily stresses on your body and find strategies to overcome obstacles.
Your Keystone treatment begins with a chiropractic massage provided by one of our knowledgeable Chiropractic assistants. Once your muscles are relaxed, our chiropractors will address any issues you have to begin your journey back to better health.
Treatment is aimed to improve movement which promotes blood flow and brings nutrients into the tissues, it also increases lymphatic drainage which takes toxins out of those tissues. The integration of increased blood and lymphatic flow throughout the body enriches the nervous system and allows you to heal and function at your best.
We expect you to experience relief from your symptoms quickly, however resolution of the underlying issues can take time and we will support you through this process, reducing the risk of the issues coming back.
Chiropractic care can help improve quality of life through reducing pain and increasing mobility in patients.
Your treatment may include:
Adjustments to the joints and muscles - this treatment helps to restore optimal biomechanics and reduce the load on joints, reducing wear and tear, and the risk of recurring injuries and degenerative changes
Soft tissue work to relieve muscle stress
Keystone can also help improve your treatment outcomes by working with you to find ways for you to continue to strengthen and improve at home.
This can include:
finding the triggers and aggravating factors which are contributing to your symptoms
working out strategies to avoid or minimise these triggers
providing stretches and exercises so you can continue to work on your issues at home

What to expect at your first appointment
For your first appointment, we have designed a new patient form that will be emailed to you, otherwise we advise that you arrive at the clinic 5-10 minutes early to complete the necessary paperwork.
This form includes lots of questions about your health and lifestyle, designed to let our chiropractors tailor your treatment to suit your needs and address your issues in a comprehensive way.
We provide medical gowns to patients to wear during treatment. However, you may choose to wear your own clothes in which case we recommend you wear comfortable and movable clothing so that our chiropractor can provide optimal treatment .
