Answers to our FAQs
WHAT IS CHIROPRACTIC?
Chiropractic is a regulated allied health profession focused on the assessment, diagnosis and management of conditions affecting the musculoskeletal system, particularly the spine, muscles and joints.
Chiropractors use a range of evidence-informed techniques, which may include manual adjustments, joint mobilisation, soft tissue therapy and lifestyle advice. Every treatment plan is tailored to the individual's needs, goals and clinical presentation.
Many people choose to see a chiropractor for musculoskeletal concerns such as back pain, neck pain, headaches associated with the neck, and joint stiffness.
At our practice, we believe in taking the time to understand your concerns, perform a thorough assessment and provide personalised care to help you move more comfortably and support your overall musculoskeletal health.
WHAT HAPPENS ON MY FIRST VISIT?
On your first visit, your chiropractor will discuss your health history, current health situation and any specific goals you may have. The chiropractor will then perform a comprehensive physical examination. Please allow 45 minutes for your first visit. The consultation will allow the chiropractor to paint a picture to understand the underlying cause of your problem.
If x-rays are necessary you will be sent to Qscan where you will be bulk billed. After your initial consultation you will have a report of findings visit which is were where your chiropractor will explain the findings, provide recommendations and discuss a plan that fits to your schedule.
WHY WOULD I NEED X-RAYS?
X-rays provide a structural record of your spine. They locate fractures, previous traumas and identify evidence of long term wear and tear. X-rays are extremely useful as they are a snapshot of the spine adding an extra level of information that helps us, help you.
Do you use HICAPS systems?
HICAPS is an acronym for the Health Industry Claims and Payments Service - an electronic health claims and payments system that allows registered healthcare providers to process these claims instantly, which means you receive the benefit you’re entitled to on the day of treatment, rather than being out of pocket until your claim is assessed and paid manually.
Do you work closely with any private health insurers?
We are preferred providers for Medibank and BUPA members.
WHY DO CHILDREN GET ADJUSTED?
