Hastings Chiropractor Dr. Laurence Gilmore

I first heard about Chiropractic in my teens

Dr. Laurence Gilmore Hastings ChiropractorI first heard about chiropractic when I met a chiropractor in my teens." remembers Dr. Laurence Gilmore. " I went to watch Dr. Brian O'Hagan adjusting patients and read the books he gave me and knew that I had found what I wanted to do with my life. It was inspiring to see chiropractic help many people through natural means - it was simple, effective, and made very good sense to me.

Chiropractic Education

Dr. Gilmore studied chiropractic at the Phillip Institute School of Chiropractic in Melbourne. The courses included anatomy, human physiology, X-ray, diagnosis, chiropractic adjusting techniques and patient care. After graduating in 1987 he practised in Sydney for one year, then London for three years, before returning to New Zealand and setting up a practice in Wellington. In 1994 he and his family moved to Hawkes Bay and set up the Kennedy Road Chiropractic Centre. 2007 saw the practice expanding, opening another office in Hastings and changing the name of the practices to First Chiropractic.

Dr. Laurence Asks some important questions of interest to Hastings residents - Chiropractor Hastings Dr. Laurence Asks...

Where do most Hastings residents get their first subluxation?
Being born in a hospital is a common source of subluxation. Trauma from forceps delivery has been replaced with drugs, vacuum extraction, Cesarean section and births that are "scheduled" to fit the workweek routines of Ob-Gyns. That's why we recommend a chiropractic checkup for every Hastings newborn.
What's the difference between maintenance, prevention and wellness?
Maintenance chiropractic care is an attempt to keep a dynamic, ever-changing and adapting organism (you) in a static relationship with your environment. Preventive chiropractic care is mostly about early detection. Wellness chiropractic care is an attempt to optimise our health and be all that you were designed to be.
