On your nerves: Christchurch Chiro
Getting on your nerves in the best way possible is Christchurch chiropractor Hugh Crozier.
Six years ago, chiropractor and ‘student for life’ Hugh Crozier had a life-changing experience while studying in Perth. He was introduced to a new way of working with the nervous system, DermoNeuroModulation, which better addresses and treats pain, tension and movement restriction. “Implementing these discoveries in Christchurch has been profoundly successful,” he says. That might sound like an overstatement, but Hugh assures results speak for themselves.
“One important difference, and something I don’t at all miss about what I thought ‘worked’ previously, is causing pain, to fix pain. My patients don’t miss it, either,” he laughs. “Actually, the nervous system responds better if you can avoid that.
“How can you get better results if not through more, harder or deeper pain? Well, that involves thinking quite differently about what really changes: it turns out the more directly you can work with the nervous system, the better things change.”
Did you know that 80% of your sensory cortex is devoted to input from the skin? “That’s a big, important chunk of brain space, relating to lots of important nerves in your skin, so why not start there?”
Painful treatment of deeper tissue – muscles, tendons, ligaments, joints – is not the answer. “There are nerves right there in the skin waiting for helpful input,” Hugh explains.
