When Pain Is Hard to Describe, That Tells Us Something

Many working professionals tell us they’re not sure how to describe their pain.

It’s often not sharp or sudden. It may feel like:

  • soreness that doesn’t fully go away

  • a dull or recurring ache

  • stiffness after long hours of sitting

  • occasional tightness or numbness

When pain presents this way, it’s often a sign that more than one factor is involved.

We Start by Finding the Cause
(Not Guessing)

At Equilibrio Chiropractic, we begin by identifying why the pain is happening — not assuming it comes from one habit or one movement.

Neck, shoulder, and back pain rarely appear overnight.
For most office professionals, it develops gradually from a combination of factors — posture, prolonged sitting, workload, stress, and how the body adapts over time.

Having worked with thousands of patients with work-related pain, we know it’s rarely caused by a single issue.

Before deciding on care, we take time to understand:

  • The nature of your work and daily demands
  • How long the pain has been present

  • How posture, movement, and habits interact

Care is then planned based on clinical assessment and adjusted as your condition responds — rather than repeating the same treatment blindly.

Chiropractic Treatments at Equilibrio

At Equilibrio Chiropractic, treatments are selected based on assessment findings, not applied as a routine or packaged approach.
Different tools are used for different problems and not every patient requires every treatment.

Chiropractic Care

Used to address joint-related and movement-related issues contributing to neck, back, and spinal discomfort. Treatment is applied only where appropriate, based on examination findings.

Spinal Decompression Therapy

A non-surgical option considered for disc-related conditions where reducing pressure on spinal structures may support recovery.

Radial Shockwave Therapy

Used for certain soft tissue and tendon-related conditions where stimulating healing response is appropriate.

Dry Needling Therapy

Applied to specific muscular trigger points when muscle tension is a contributing factor to pain or restricted movement.

Super Inductive System

A non-invasive therapy considered for neuromuscular and joint-related conditions where deeper tissue stimulation may be beneficial.

Meet Our Chiropractors

dr.bryan_chen

Dr. Bryan Chen

Doctor of Chiropractic (NZ) | Nearly 10 Years in Practice

Over almost a decade in practice, Dr Bryan has seen the same pattern repeatedly — office professionals whose pain lingers because multiple contributing factors were never identified early. He is known for setting clear treatment direction upfront and changing course when progress is not occurring, rather than extending care without reason.

dr.sasha_zhong

Dr. Sasha Zhong

Doctor of Chiropractic (NZ)

Dr Sasha often works with professionals especially women who struggle to explain their pain clearly — discomfort that shifts, fades, and returns with work stress or prolonged sitting. She is particularly experienced in helping patients make sense of vague or inconsistent symptoms before deciding whether treatment is actually needed.

dr.Jarol_lao

Dr. Jarol Lao

Doctor of Chiropractic (NZ)

Dr Jarol frequently sees patients who assumed their pain would resolve on its own — until it didn’t. Many come in after weeks or months of rest, exercise, or self-management without improvement. His care focuses on addressing the underlying contributors when symptoms persist beyond what self-care can resolve.

dr.britney_ong

Dr. Britney Ong

Doctor of Chiropractic (UK)

Dr Britney commonly works with patients who are unsure whether they even need treatment and are cautious about committing to care. She is known for helping professionals decide when intervention makes sense — and just as importantly, when conservative options are sufficient.

Dr. Jing

Doctor of Chiropractic (NZ)

Dr Jing has spent close to a decade seeing posture- and sitting-related pain that begins as stiffness and gradually progresses into nerve irritation or sciatica. He is particularly experienced in recognising these early patterns and addressing them before they develop into more persistent problems.

FAQ

We are a branch of allied health care professionals, such as physiotherapists, podiatrists and radiographers. Unlike medical doctors who give injections, perform surgeries or write prescriptions, we practice spinal adjustments instead. At least 4400 hours of theory and practicals must be achieved before we are able to attain the degree to be a chiropractor.
Although the popping sounds do sound frightening, they are actually harmless. They are caused when joints open up during adjustments releasing air which causes the sound. Only certain adjustments will cause such sounds depending on the various techniques used and the state of the patient’s body.
Certain people often feel strong urges to ‘crack’ his or her own spine. This could be located in the lower back or at the neck. The urge is caused by muscular spasms due to stuck spinal vertebrae. In the event of cracking your own spine, a pop sound is created just like when a chiropractor does it. However, we have received extensive training to be able to move the joints in the exact direction with the exact amount of force required for each particular patient. If an untrained person or yourself cracks your spine over a period of time, problems may arise due to joint instability and this may require even more treatment and exercises to correct the damages inflicted upon the spine.
Chiropractic treatments can never be started too early. Even newborn babies can be treated to correct spinal injuries suffered from trauma during labour, such as vacuum or forceps birth etc. Birth traumas which are ignored lead to pressure on the spine down the road which has detrimental effects on normal development. This will cost the baby his or her health which could have been optimal with appropriate chiropractic care.
A consultation is needed to determine the amount of adjustments needed for a particular person. Discussions with us about your short and long term health goals are also essential for us to come up with the best treatment plan for you. Every individual is different and therefore it is impossible for a ‘one fits all’ rule to be applied to everyone when referring to the number of adjustments needed.
  • There is no need for a treatment plan to receive chiropractic treatment from us. There are patients who do come in for just ‘pay per visit’ adjustments. However, a single chiropractic adjustment provides only temporary relief, and does not address the root cause of the issue. Therefore, your pain will return without a doubt.
  • In contrast, with a proper treatment plan in place, you get to save money AND receive our holistic care. You get to enjoy our treatment options such as adjustments, dry needling , shockwave therapy, customised exercises and re-examinations, all at a lowered cost.
  • It is highly unlikely that the health problem you are experiencing occurred in an instant. A more plausible explanation would be bad habits over a prolonged period of time. This means that it is illogical to expect your problem to vanish with just one or even a few visits with us.
  • Even though certain adjustments may cause slight discomfort initially, depending on the joint or condition, you should not feel any pain after an adjustment.
  • Should it be your first adjustment though, a slight discomfort lasting about 12 to24 hours is usual.
