Chiro in Raro

"...take advantage of the opportunity to see a New Zealand registered and trained chiropractor, with over 25 years experience, without having to leave Rarotonga!"

Kia orana.

I am back on Island and have started to see people already. I am working week days right through to Friday 28th February 2025. I am working out of the same place... Rarotonga Printing, Ara Tapu, Tupapa, next door to Cook Island News. I am looking forward to seeing my fabulous regular clientele again and I appreciate your continued patronage and support. I am also available to see new people that need some help with their health or simply need a "tune-up".

I am pleased to report that the results of recent research out of the New Zealand College of Chiropractic by Dr Heidi Haavic PhD, helps us to further understand the power of a chiropractic adjustment and its benefits to the body, particularly to the nervous system and the brain. See her with Russell Brand explaining her research here...

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tgwXAzTqJVU

What the research is telling us is that a subluxated spine (a spinal joint that has lost its normal position and coordination with the rest of the spine causing stiffness, tightness, pain and a decline in performance, amongst other things), creates a situation within the body that causes a mal-adaption (weakening or fibrous hypertonicity) of the fine controlling muscles of the spine. These fine controlling muscles are more than mere muscles. They also function as sensory organs that our brain depends upon to get a sense of where our body is in space (proprioception) and how our spine is moving in relation to our external environment (whether you are sitting, walking, running or sleeping). If these muscles are mal-adapted they eventually become weak and are unable to "report" to the brain their vital information. This is where things go terribly wrong. What results is your back starts to feel stiff, tight or achy. You don't feel fully at ease when resting or sleeping. Eventually, this can lead to degenerative changes in the spine, serious dysfunction and pain that may eventually require surgical intervention.

However, a series of chiropractic spinal adjustments will start to correct these subluxations "waking up" these fine motor controlling muscles of the spine and start them working again. They eventually regain their strength and function allowing them to operate in their sensory organ capacity again reporting their vital information to the brain allowing it to do its job more effectively.

Now you can take advantage of the opportunity to see a New Zealand registered and trained chiropractor, with over 25 years’ experience, without having to leave Rarotonga. You will receive the same type of care that is discussed in the research.

IMPORTANT!!!
Being a registered primary health care provider, I am required to keep and maintain accurate health records. If you are new and are about to make your first appointment, you will be asked to enter some details about yourself so your appointment can be locked in. You must use your own personal details, including your email and mobile number (except for minors who can be registered with their parent’s email and mobile), as this information identifies you from others in the database who may have the same name.

Please keep an eye out for your confirmation email. That email contains an active link to an online Health History form that I require you to complete and submit before you arrive for your appointment. Take your time to answer the questions fully and accurately as this will form part of your health record and will allow me to conduct an appropriate consultation and examination based on the information you provide.

My local mobile number will be working once I land in Rarotonga. That number is +68280827.

I look forward to seeing you all.

I am very pleased to let you all know that I will be back on Island for 2 weeks starting Thursday 23rd May through to Wednesday 5th June 2024 working out of the same place... Rarotonga Printing, Ara Tapu, Tupapa, next door to Cook Island News. I hope you don't mind, but I have copied this info from may last post as it is still very relevant.

I am hoping that I managed to help you in some way during my last visit and that you are able to continue your health journey by building upon the progress we made back then.
on the Thursday 2nd May I sent out an email to my patients in my database letting them know I will be returning. That email also contained a link to my booking page so you could book online. If you didn't receive that email, it will probably be because I don’t have your current email address, or that the email has ended up in your spam folder. Check your spam folder to see if it’s there. If its not, just send me your name and correct email address to chiro.in.raro@gmail.com and I can update your file.
If you havn't received care from me before then it’s your best opportunity to see a New Zealand registered and trained chiropractor, with over 24 years’ experience, without having to leave Rarotonga. Rest assured you are in great company as I have checked many hundreds of Cook Islanders since 2017.

I am excited to come back to see you all again. I am hoping that I manged to help you in some way during my last visit and that you are able to continue your health journey by building upon the progress we made back then.

three weeks ago I sent out an email to my patients in my database letting them know I will be returning. That email also contained a link to my booking page so you could book online.

Kia orana.

I will be back on Island seeing people from Monday to Friday for 2 weeks starting Monday 11th September 2023.

I am looking forward to seeing my chiropractic “fan base” again. Shout out to you guys! You are the backbone of my Chiro In Raro practice and are an absolute joy to come back to.

On 21st August I sent out an email to everyone on my database letting them know I will be coming back. That email also contained a link to my booking page so you could book online. If you did not receive that email, it will be because I don’t have your current email address, or that the email has ended up in your spam. Check your spam folder to see if it’s there. If its not, just send me your name and correct email address to chiro.in.raro@gmail.com and I can update your file.

I try to send out notification of my visit about 2 weeks before I arrive so you can book your appointments on the days and times that work for you before I publish this info on social media (I’ve got to look after my loyal "chiropractic commandos"). Once that notice goes out my appointment book gets booked out fast.

It’s been a few days so now I’m opening it up to you who have not been before and have been wanting to come in and get checked. It’s a great opportunity to visit a New Zealand registered and trained chiropractor with over 24 years’ experience without having to leave Rarotonga. Rest assured you are in great company as I have checked many hundreds of Cook Islanders since first visiting in 2017.

Kia orana and happy new year. I am back on Island again working Monday 20th to Thursday 23rd then Monday 27th to Friday 31st January.

I am Dr Chad Esaiah, a chiropractor of 20+ years. I am a New Zealand born Cook Islander whose father is from Tongareva. I provide outcome based chiropractic care to those who need help with a structural or neurological health issue or want to maintain or improve on their current health and performance. To do this requires some commitment. Commitment from you to do as much as you can (I can give you some guidance on that if needed) and commitment from me to return regularly enough to provide you with the care that will help you in your health pursuit. I love it when I see people achieve their best physical, mental and emotional version of themselves. I make it a goal to return every 6 - 8 weeks to help as many people who need chiropractic as possible.

This time round I will have my niece with me to assist me at reception. She is also a NZ born Cook Islander and is visiting for her first time. Her name is Tyler Sutton. She is looking forward to meeting you. She will be behind the desk eagerly waiting to greet you with her beautiful smile.

Many of you have already received a chiropractic checkup and adjustment from me before. Some of you are wondering if you should take the plunge and make an appointment. I hope you do. Some of you may want to know more... therefore the following statement explains my purpose and my goal when I interact with each person that comes in to see me....

"My purpose is to help you achieve the balance and vitality you need to enjoy vibrant health and productive longevity. I recognise the inherent ability of your body to organise, regenerate and heal itself in a powerful and intelligent way. For that intelligent process to occur properly and completely, your body requires that it functions well and is free of interference to your nervous system. It is my mission to reduce a major source of nerve interference, within the spine and other joints of the body (called a subluxation) to the smallest degree, so your body can begin to reorganise, regenerate and heal on a much deeper level. A subluxated spinal vertebra is one that is not functioning well and is considered to be "stuck" and which alters and impairs your nervous system's communication.

To correct a subluxated joint I will perform what is known as a chiropractic spinal adjustment which aims to restore proper joint and nerve function. This then enables your body to achieve even greater balance and performance in every facet of your life. This is why many professional teams and athletes in North America and around the world get regular chiropractic spinal adjustments before and after every competitive event.

You don't have to be a professional athlete to enjoy the benefits of chiropractic adjustments. You deserve to be the best physical version of yourself no matter how old you are, or what level of sport you play, or what type of work you do. You deserve to perform at your very best. Meitaki"

If you would like to receive a chiropractic check up but have not seen me before then you can request an appointment by leaving a message on this post or private message me on the "Chiro in Raro" page. You can also book online through the "Book Now" button on this page. We will need your name, your date of birth, your email and your mobile number please. It is important that you provide your own mobile number as txt is our best way of communicating with you. It will also ensure we preserve patient confidentiality.

You can also contact me on my local number 80827 from Monday 20th through to Friday 31st January. Meitaki Maata.

Kia Orana. I am the chiropractor that worked above Rarotonga Printing. I just want to say thank you to everyone that came to see me this week. I really enjoyed catching up with you all. I hope I managed to help those of you who were in difficulty and help maintain you who just needed a "tune up". I want to send out a special thank out to David Norgren, Mykel and Vilma Tolsa, Fern Miles, Paula Caldenas Gaces, Jamie Gotty and Annie Vainu. But most especially I thank you for coming to see me or who referred family or friends. Without your support I could not make my visits possible. But your continued support allows me to come as frequent as 4-6 weeks which makes maintaining the adjustments made and your ongoing health possible. For those of you who missed this time round, I will catch up with you when I return in November 20th. Meitaki maata

09/09/2018

Kia Orana.... I am back on Island ready to see you Monday 17th September. Also Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday. If you would like to see me just reply to this post or PM me. Meitaki maata

Having your spine checked and adjusted removes interference in your nervous system allowing your body to function better. Arnie gives his take on it...

Kia Orana chiropractic visits are best made by making an appointment. Otherwise it will be hit or miss whether I can fit you in. My appointment book is filling fast so it is best to make an appointment sooner than later. Click on 'Book Now' above to ensure you do not miss out
