Frequently Asked Questions

Which techniques do you use?
A mix of manual (diversified) and low force (SOT, Activator, cranial work, AK and Thompson drop piece). Our chiropractors also utilise a range of soft tissue techniques, rehab exercises and SD Protocol. As we use a wide range of techniques, we are able to tailor your care to suit your needs and preferences.

Are you a bulk billing chiropractic clinic?
Unfortunately chiropractors can't bulk bill. However you can speak to your GP about the EPC program, which, if eligible, entitles you to 5 visits (covered by Medicare) to allied health practitioners, like chiropractors. We do not charge a gap fee for EPC covered consults, but if you are a new patient to our practice, there will be an initial appointment fee before your care plan starts.

Do you work with children and babies?
Yes, we see all ages, from a few days old to the elderly, using age appropriate adjusting techniques. Please let us know the age of your child when booking in so we can make sure you see a practitioner who has done additional paediatric training.

Will I be sore after my first adjustment (treatment)?
Possibly. Restoring movement to restricted parts of the body can lead to a local inflammation response which can cause an ache, similar to going to the gym for the first time in a long time!

Will I get adjusted on the first visit?
Most likely yes. In some cases the chiropractors may need to send for further investigations (X-rays, etc), but mostly yes.

Do you have HICAPS?
Yes, you will be able to use your HICAPS card and claim on the spot. This means that you can claim your Private Health Insurance right here and only pay the remaining gap - no need to submit claims yourself! Please bring your Private Health Insurance card, or have the app set up on your phone to tap.

How much is it?
​For the first chiropractic visit, which is a longer appointment, the fees are $120, with subsequent appointments charged at $65. Concession and family rates are available.
​Remedial massage appointments are $110 for 60 mins, with 90 min and 30 min massages also available.
