Fitness Balls

Theratube with Handles
Theratube or resistance bands are a great little tool to use with your fitness, rehab and strength regime. Perfect for those who don't have a gym membership (and nor do they want one!) and who want to target particular areas of their body.
Here are just three reasons to use one:
- Resistance bands allow you to perform strength-training exercises without weights
- You can get a full-body workout, add variety and intensity to your strength-training exercises using resistance bands
- Resistance bands are inexpensive, easy to store and perfect for exercising while traveling
If you would like to know more about how to use a Theratube resistance band, ask one of our chiropractors to show you some exercises.

Traction Aids
We stock a range of specialised home traction aids for use as prescribed by your chiropractor.
They include:
Cervical and Thoracic Denneroll
Lumbar and Thoracic Foam Bridges
Ice Packs
Chiropractic Flex-Ice re-usable ice-packs for use with acute injuries.
Ice is a very soothing and effective method of reducing inflammation and numbing the pain of an injury, bite or sting. However, if it is applied for longer than 15 minutes at a time, there is the possibility of it causing an ice-burn (frost bite).
We recommend keeping a couple in your freezer to rotate and they will be ready for when you next need some ice in a hurry!
We also suggest that you See The Therapeutic Use of Ice Fact Sheet for the correct way to apply and use ice successfully as a first aid measure.
