Nervous system chart
Brain
Coordinates messages, control, interpretation and adaptation.
Spinal cord
The central communication pathway between brain and body.
Nerve roots
Pathways that connect the spine with muscles, joints and organs.
Movement feedback
Joints, muscles and soft tissues constantly send information back to the nervous system.


Neurological assessment
Screening and clinical tests help understand how the nervous system may be contributing to your symptoms or movement patterns.

Imaging when relevant
X-rays, ultrasound, MRI or CT may be reviewed or referred for when clinically useful to further investigate.

Whole-body connection
Care considers the relationship between spine, joints, muscles, soft tissue, stress, movement and recovery.
Nervous system and neurological assessment where clinically relevant.
Posture, movement, joint and muscle function reviewed together.
Imaging review or referral for X-rays, ultrasound, MRI or CT when further investigation is appropriate.
Treatment selected around your medical history, preferences and current condition.
