What is different about our chiropractic treatment?

Our chiropractic consultations have a holistic focus that includes the physical, mental, and social elements of your life. You can come in for chiropractic work even when you are not in pain. Our Chiropractic Doctor, Dr. Ian Shaw has extensive experience with both the everyday athlete and professional athletes, where he applies a more collaborative and progressive approach to his treatments. He utilises his background in strength & conditioning and acupuncture to further improve all aspects of your performance, whether it be for sport, competition or day-to-day activity.

Whether it be our Relieve (Pain Management), Restore (Foundation Training), or Elevate (Performance Optimisation) entry points, the plan is tailored through our Momentum Approach to your specific needs to optimise your health and performance. We prescribe movement as medicine, providing you with the tools to accelerate your recovery through our post-consultation home-exercise programmes that you won’t receive at many other places due to the mixed approach from our Chiropractic Doctor, who aims to improve all aspects of human performance - for sport, competition, and everyday activities.

 

Our sports chiropractic practice helps athletes and sports enthusiasts:

  • Accelerate recovery from injury

  • Relieve pain and recurring body aches

  • Restore range of motion and learn how to maintain it

  • Enhance sports performance and recovery


the different techniques & therapies used to treat you will include:

What to expect in your first visit

Your Discovery Consult includes an initial assessment, which is taken to help us identify your injury or condition, and allows us to form a personalised treatment plan for your diagnosis. During the physical assessment, you will also be assessed on your physical posture, active mobility, and your joint ranges of motion. In almost all cases, you’ll receive treatment during your first visit. If you are in pain we want to make sure you leave feeling better than you did when you came in. In some rarer cases that involving complex conditions, treatment may begin on the second visit. However, in such cases we’ll discuss this with you at the time of the initial appointment.


how long do consults last?

The Discovery Consult takes 45 minutes, where the focus is on listening to you, working together to piece the puzzle of how to create the best treatment plan for you by having a good understanding of your health history, bio-mechanical exam, functional movements, and neurological tests.

Follow Up Consults can last 20-30 mins for smaller issues, or 45 minutes depending on your needs.

EXPERIENCE TESTIMONIALS

“I saw Dr Ian Shaw for a neck injury after a fall during bouldering. I was unable to turn my head for a full 2 days prior to seeing him. I have been to other chiropractors that did not do any treatment/therapy on the same day and asked me to come back the following day.

Everyone at Momentum was very helpful from booking the session to leaving the clinic. Best chiropractor in Hong Kong. Would definitely recommend!”

“A knowledgeable and welcoming group of therapists with a bright, open space. I suffered a shoulder injury a few months bouldering. I was unable to lift my arm above my head and things like getting dressed and reaching for things was quite difficult. Dr. Ian did some manual therapy to the shoulder and back, and gave me a specific rehab program to strengthen the shoulder.  After a few weeks I was able to return to the gym and now my shoulder feels the same as it did pre-injury!  The team at Momentum are great and very helpful.  Would definitely recommend anyone especially with sport and fitness goals to get their niggles and injuries checked out.”

- Brendan S

“I had lower back pain after the gym a few weeks ago. Dr. Shaw helped with explaining my injury to me, and ways to decrease my current pain level, as well as ways to avoid future injuries. I'm happy to say after 2 visits I was back to normal and back to the gym. I would 100% recommend everyone at Momentum to keep your body healthy!”
