“More Energy”

“Unbelievable.”  Never in my mind did I think that after the few visits – and adjustments – that I feel 110% better, more energetic, and no pain or discomfort!  I am back to full working capability, have more energy, more “awareness” on caring for my body.

-- S. D. - Galatea

“A Wonderful Environment”

“From the moment you step in the door, from office workers through to the Chiropractor, everyone makes you feel special and to top it off in a wonderful environment.”

-- I. R. - Atiamuri

“I Can Run Faster”

My neck is now better than ever. The tension throughout my whole spinal area has gone. I move more freely and can run faster now as a result. I am a New Zealand ranked 800m athlete. Since I have gone to the Chiropractic centre I feel I can run more freely and quickly due to the treatment.  My posture also has improved a lot. My neck is back 3 inches more than when I started.  I am very impressed by the care I received by the Funnell Chiropractic Centre.  It has made a noticeable difference in my life for the better.

"I Feel Better In Myself"

My first introduction to Chiropractic was at the Women's Lifestyle Expo in 2007.  With just a few touches of their fingers they were able to detect things amiss so I decided to get them fixed.

The biggest change I have experienced since beginning Chiropractic care is my back feels stronger, I have more energy than before and I have noticed I can sleep on my back without it being sore in the morning.  I have learnt how to look after my back better and I feel better in myself.

I find the staff really friendly and I enjoy my sessions as it is my way of totally relaxing.

-- A. W. - Koutu, Rotorua

"Full Of Energy"

I first started Chiropractic care because I was suffering from headaches, sore shoulder and a very sore left hip. I also felt I was not balanced – one leg longer than the other (I had been like this for a long time thinking it would just come right and it didn’t). With on-going Chiropractic adjustments I can sleep at night and have very little pain but the biggest change is the energy I have!  For 37 years I have not been a morning person taking a long time to function properly but since my treatment I bounce out of bed, alert and full of energy.  I couldn’t find enough hours in my day to get everything done.  Now I fit everything in and have time for me.  I am balanced.  This has prompted me to change my lifestyle for the better health wise.

Funnell Family Chiropractic is a great and supportive environment.  If I had known what a difference in my life the treatment and care would make I would have done this a long time ago!

-- L. E. - Pukehangi, Rotorua

“My Posture Has Straightened!”

My wife Joycelyn was a patient and encouraged me to attend a Chiropractic Talk that Margi held (I was the person she demonstrated with).  Since starting Chiropractic care, my posture has straightened and I have been able to feel more positive in my work.  Another positive is my joints in my body have loosened up.  Congratulations to the reception staff who looked after my visits.  Also, top marks to the Chiropractors who have treated me!

-- E. S-C. - Ngongotaha, Rotorua

“More Flexible”

I started Chiropractic care due to lack of mobility and back pain.  I could barely walk and the pain affected my sleep.  Eventually, I had to resort to anti-inflammatory drugs (Ibuprofen) which caused digestion problems.  My progress at Funnell Family Chiropractic is that I am more flexible, I have less pain, I can walk and sleep better and I’m beginning to find more mental tranquillity.  I have found the emotional trauma of my daughter’s death easier to accept, I am less angry and resentful and more accepting.  I have received kindness, gentleness and friendliness from all staff.

-- J. R. - Owhata, Rotorua

“More Movement”

I was impressed with the way Chiropractic care was helping my daughter but I had never been myself until I fell on my shoulder and hip.  It made me feel sick.  I had a very painful back and neck.  I now have more movement and a better back than I have had for years.  From the moment I stepped into the door - the receptionists to the Chiropractors, they make you feel special and to top it off in a wonderful environment.

-- I. R. - Rotorua

“Straight Away I Felt The Benefit”

I fell over and sat on my tail bone.  I went to the doctor who gave me pills that did not relieve the pain and over time I learnt to live with it.  All night in bed it seemed I would turn 100 times but I could never get comfortable.  I was always up very early rather than a lie in.  At Funnell Family Chiropractic I have received very gently treatment and straight away I felt the benefit.  Now after 6 weeks I have very little pain and can lie in bed with no trouble – this is wonderful.  It has also fixed a very painful arm which I was told a pulled muscle – all in all lots of unnecessary pain.  The minute you walk in the door you are greeted with a lovely smile and called by your name, you feel very much at ease.

-- H. M. - Lynmore, Rotorua

“More Focused and Purposeful”

Although a troublesome left knee kept me from walking any distance, I was able to perform most farm labour but with the onset of lower back pain.  I was almost totally incapacitated.  For the first 2 months, I discovered more painful areas than I started with, but having been forewarned I realised progress was being made and was encouraged to continue treatment and now after 5½ months I am back to doing physically demanding work without a trace of pain.  This is what is remarkable!  Not only has my initial problem been resolved but in general my physical health and wellbeing has improved.  I feel mentally stimulated, more focused and purposeful.  The reception staff are efficient, friendly and helpful.

-- G. O. - Rotorua

“I Can Sleep Easily”

I was recommended Chiropractic by my GP following nerve and joint discomfort which I had for more than 12 months.  It was very painful.  I also had psychological stress from lack of sleep and irregular sleep patterns.  Since starting Chiropractic care I can sleep easily and now have an awareness of correct sleeping positions.  I am more flexible especially in the neck.  I have an overall feeling of wellness knowing I am receiving positive help.  It is a very nice atmosphere and surroundings.  There is excellent reading material and coffee.  The toilets and contents the same.  The reception staff and Chiropractors are most enjoyable – a painless experience!

-- M. G. - Kaingaroa

"My Body Is Free Of Pain"

I started at the Chiropractors because I had a sore, aching lower back, intermittently for the last 25-30 years.  I felt irritable and out of sorts and couldn't do the things I wanted to do like gardening (farming).  I also had tightness in the neck when stressed.  This led to Meniere's disease a highly unpleasant debilitating disease.

Since receiving NSA adjustments, my body is free of pain, not only in the back and neck but also other aches I was not aware of till starting my adjustments.  It has also lessened anxiety, worrying, tendency to catastrophise, an increase in body sensations (from nil in some areas), and confidence, improve body image.

The changes Phillippa and I have brought about seem incredible.  Her whole person and manner are highly conducive to trust, security and confidence.  The ambiance of the clinic is fresh, restful and professional.  I am a very happy client!

Your Chiropractor Asks some important questions of interest to Rotorua residents - Chiropractor Rotorua Your Chiropractor Asks...

Why does chiropractic work?
Chiropractic works because your nervous system, consisting of your brain, spinal cord and all the nerves of your body, controls and regulates every cell, tissue, organ and system of your body. A chiropractor locates and reduces areas of nervous system compromise (usually along the spine) so your capacity to heal is restored. Chiropractic works by helping your body work as it was designed.
What are the two things drugs do?
Drugs can either speed up (laxatives, amphetamines, caffeine) a bodily process, or slow down (stomach antacids, sleep aids, antihistamines, muscle relaxers) a bodily process. Chiropractic care can produce the same results, but relies on the intelligence of the body. Chiropractors trust your body. Do you?
