Network Spinal Auckland
At Courageous Being, located on Auckland's North Shore, we practise Network Spinal (formerly known as NSA), a pioneering approach in chiropractic care. Dr Jan O'Neill specialises in this gentle technique, which focusses on spinal-neural flexibility and overall health enhancement through the nervous system.
Network Spinal is a very gentle but powerful technique that helps you learn how to release stress and tension from your spine and body yourself. This revolutionary form of chiropractic care facilitates profound life changes, not only the relief of physical symptoms. People under Network Spinal care also experience improvements in their spinal flexibility, ability to respond positively to stress and improved overall health and life enjoyment.
Network Spinal is suitable for people of all ages - newborns, athletes and elderly. It's never too early or too late to create a positive change.
What is Network Spinal?
Network Spinal (NS), formerly known as Network Spinal Analysis (NSA), is a unique chiropractic technique developed by Dr. Donald Epstein. Unlike traditional chiropractic methods, Network Spinal emphasises gentle, precise touches to the spine, stimulating full spine breathing and a wave-like motion of the spinal muscles which promotes the release of stress, spinal alignment, improved self-regulation and healing. There is no manipulation (cracking) of the spine needed.
This innovative approach enhances spinal health and optimises the functioning of the nervous system, positively influencing mental, emotional, and physical well-being.
“Network Spinal Analysis inspires us to trust the healing power within us.”
